[+] Supervivens@lemmy.world -10 points 2 years ago (3 children) I mean, people should get payed more, but what do you expect a single (relatively) small grocery chain to do? Also this is more about protecting staff as they have to be the ones to turn them on when an incident occurs rather than an always-on thing permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] Owljfien@iusearchlinux.fyi 25 points 2 years ago (1 child) In the context of the country this is taking place in, Coles cannot be considered small by any stretch of the imagination permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Duckef@lemmy.ml 16 points 2 years ago (1 child) Literally part of an almost duopoly permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Owljfien@iusearchlinux.fyi 15 points 2 years ago (1 child) Probably a large reason inflation is so high too, putting prices up "because inflation" and pulling record profits permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] j4k3@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago (2 children) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Onii-Chan@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago This is happening in Australia, a country almost universally controlled by the 'left wing' Labor party on both federal and state levels.

The cunts are all best mates, left wing or right wing.) Never forget who the real enemy is. We're playing so fucking effectively into their little game, and they know it.

When I was making $100k I exclusively shopped at locally owned stores. But after being laid off, I can only afford to shop at Walmart and Amazon. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Skiptrace@lemmy.one 3 points 2 years ago Coles is part of a duopoly with Woolies in Australia, so...
