Fortunately, it seems Amazon changed their tune, probably once they realized the media was in touch with her.

The Amazon warehouse where she works originally denied her request for a leave of absence, but the company said in a statement Friday that they've since spoken with her and given her time off with pay.

Do we know what kind of leave of absence she was requesting?  I find it hard to imagine that they were telling her she'd be fired if she didn't show up to work today. I work at a place with stellar benefits, but if the same thing happened to me I'd be paid for as long as the sick time lasted and given an option for leave without pay after that.

Yeah everyone is just high fiving that Jimmy Carter died so flags will be at half-staff when Trumps gets inaugurated.

My wife predicted this response about 5 minutes into the special report that interrupted her watching the AKC Dog Show on ABC.

AWK is another one of those conservatives who I think really has become noticeably dumber during the Trump era.

He’s not dumber. You’ve just noticed it.

I’m just reminded why I already had him on ignore.

Johnson borrowed money against SS to pay for the Vietnam War. Reagan and Bush borrowed money against SS to pay for tax cuts.

But, again, those citizens at the bottom of the pay scale pay federal payroll taxes. They pay into SS and Medicare. Do you claim teachers, or other government employees, those who exempt from SS tax and also from benefits, do not pay federal income tax? 
 

Yeah, I am concerned about not letting old people starve and also about medical care for sick people. And, while I am open to means testing for recipients, I know where the vast majority of wealth this nation has created over the past half century is located, and I support WW2 era tax policies upon that wealth.

 

 

Are you aware that wealth and income are two separate things?

Just because it’s the SS program that will be running a deficit doesn’t mean that it’s the SS program that will need to see benefit cuts.

It’s hard to understand what you are saying when you’re still chewing the food you took from your kids’ mouths.

These stupid fucks claim they are worried about “spending” 

When is the last republican administration who made meaningful cuts in spending?

The artiste notes something that seems to be lost these days, that being that media has a public obligation beyond being a profit-making enterprise.

It will all be AI generated stories from some call center in Bollywood pretty soon.

My man, they're owned by billionaires. Their sole purpose is to enrich their owners and stake holders. Nothing more than that. Civics are dead and privatized

Neither are a good choice as both are just white trash human beings to their core. Just incredible that we share a country with 77 million people who think either of these horrific people care even one iota about them.

What does this have to do with Trump, America, or Trump's America?

Trump’s America encompasses corporations shitting on their employees without interference of government regulations. Like sick leave.

Really...

That's all you have now?

I'm curious. 

Did you try to bring me back because you wanted honest, intelligent discussion, or because  this echo chamber has run off everyone that is even remotely conservative? 

Or were you were you being disingenuous and just trying to bring me back so that I could get attacked by the denizens on this site?
