Oh no, not a petition! That will show them! I bet the corporate executives are shaking in their boots.

Reminds me of my time at P&G. Working overtime during the week was forbidden, but if you wanted to come in over the weekend and donate a day's work, that was great.

Too bad. Petition Obama who takes pride in this fiasco. See how far that will go. Otherwise, live with it as you most likely voted for this buffoon on the hill.

This is the fault of the ill-conceived piece of carp bill that the Democrats passed with zero GOP support - without reading! I don’t blame Staples one bit!

Staples Story that this policy has been in place doesn’t address directly the question if this is related to Obamacare, it is and they know it.

Companies who try to hide their motivations do everyone a disservice.

If they are in California, they will be kept under 19 hours, as California considers 20 hours “full time” for both healthcare benefits and a higher minimum wage.

I said this way back when Obamacare was first passed:

First THIS would happen. Reduction of hours to stay under the number required to provide full benefits. What else can a company do? It’s really not their fault. If the business model can’t support paying out that much money to employees then the answer is don’t do it. It’s either that or go out of business... and then there’s no part time jobs either.

Now... the NEXT thing that will happen:
Part time jobs will begin to have standard segmentation in a week. Either Mon-Wed Thu-Sun or possibly morning and afternoon shifts that revolve entirely around having employees be able to hop between jobs. Not because they wouldn’t rather work one job 40 hrs... NO! Because most jobs won’t ALLOW anyone to work more than 20. So a whole new “normal” work hours schedule will pop up so when you apply for multiple part time jobs everyone will use roughly the same schedules.

Just give it time. It’ll happen soon. And it’s pure lunacy.

God help the people that work two full jobs a week now. It’ll become more like 3 or 4 part time jobs on this crazy travel schedule all week long.

Doesn’t sound quite right.

The Employees do not schedule their own Hours, the Managers do. I assume the Managers are the ones that could Fired.

The Staples in my small Indiana town shut down...couldn’t stay open. There are others in the same thongs all due to Hope & Change Socialism and the healthcare that was allowed to go unchecked by the citizens of the US...

I ended up posting this in the article below the other one...apparently I clicked when yawning...I should be more careful...

Staples is not the only company. This is the rule, not the exception.
