Change.org




I started a petition when my employer, Staples, decided to cut part-time employees' hours so they don't have to provide health care benefits required by Obamacare.








My name is "Sue," and I work at Staples. I can't tell you my full name because I'm afraid I'll lose my job for what I'm about to tell you: Staples recently decided to cut part-time employees' hours just so they won't have to provide health care benefits under Obamacare.
Staples is taking advantage of a loophole in the health care law that says employers don't have to provide coverage for employees who work less than 30 hours a week. Staples also told managers to hire more part time workers if they need people to cover the schedule.
Cutting employees' hours just to avoid paying for health care is not right. I can't afford to make less money than I do now without taking on another job. That's why I started a petition on Change.org asking Staples to not cut part-time employees' hours and comply with Obamacare. Will you join me by signing my petition?
I've worked as an Easy-Tech Representative for 9 years now, selling thousands of computers, protection plans, and services. I typically work 30-35 hours in a week, so when I was told that my hours would be cut, I was heartbroken. I recently got married and we have a baby on the way -- 25 hours a week is not enough to make ends meet, let alone start a family.
Staples doesn't want to provide health care to its employees -- but there is hope. Other chain employers such as Darden Restaurants (owners of Olive Garden and Red Lobster) reversed similar cuts after intense public pressure. And other corporations like Starbucks have pledged not to reduce part time hours.
By signing my petition, you'll be amplifying the voices of thousands of Staples employees across the country who are afraid to speak out and can't afford to have their hours cut. Click here to sign my petition demanding Staples follow the law and provide health care instead of cutting part-time employees' hours.
Thank you for your support.
"Sue" Whistleblower..
Here's a woman who does not work full time to begin with. So what does she do? Gets pregnant. Obviously her and her husband are not financially prepared to have children. The few less hours wouldn't make a difference.
So now she's whining.....
So we should get stuck with a lousy law because SHE and her husband made a poor life decision.
 
She implores Staples to follow the law but they ARE following the law. They are just not following the law the way she wants them to. She wants Staples to lose money and just bite the bullet that the democrats have shot at them.

I hope all the obamabots that voted for this law lose hours/lose insurance and benefits.

ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES.

There's an old saying, dumbass.

Be careful what you wish for.

Has it ever occurred to you that the reason why the GOP hasn't won an honest presidential election since 1988 is because you guys have created dependency on government?

Case in point. These people aren't going to "lose" insurance. They are just going to get it from Medicare instead of their employer.

And eventually, the government is going to get that money by raising taxes on... Staples and other douchebag corporations.

Has it ever occurred to you that the reason why the Democrats haven't won a fair election since 1992 is because you guys keep adding to the dependency? Oh that dependency will win you elections all thee effing time, Joe.

Uhh, they did lose their insurance, and getting it from Medicare isn't getting it from Obamacare. Where's your head buddy?
And eventually, the government is going to get that money by raising taxes on... Staples and other douchebag corporations.

And kiss all the jobs goodbye in the process.

We're not the ones adding to the dependency, guy. (and again, the fucking irony of a guy who can't hold down a job lecturing an established professional about "dependency" is laughable.) That would be the race to the bottom employers who underpay their workers and then put on their website instructions on how to apply for Food Stamps and Medicare.

My ideal world. Everyone has a fully renumerative job and government charity is reserved for people who truly need it.

Oh, I think you don't understand what "winning a fair election" is.

One more time, there isn't a program called "ObamaCare". There are either private insurance plans the government subsidizes or there are government programs that have been expanded.

Well, frankly, Staples is a shitty place to shop, and no one would miss it.

But here's the reality. Most companies have cut their staffs to the bone already. The threatening us with more layoffs isn't going to fly very far.
 
.

The fun part will be when companies are sued because they don't hire in the first place due to added artificial costs and regulations.

I'll never have to have employees again, and this is a delightful example of why.

.

Someone will be spared having a douchebag for a boss. That's good.

The reality, guy. Companies have already cut staff to the bone. There really isn't anywhere else to cut.

And are you guys STILL trying to claim wealth is going to "trickle down" to the rest of us?

Where did I talk about "cutting", Joe? Specifically?

And is the name-calling always required?

Never mind, I'm limiting exposure to people like you, play your games with the others.

Instead of pissing and moaning about douchebags why don't you help all these abused workers work for themselves?

Oh yeah that would mean you would actually have to do something

never mind.

I am doing something.

I'm calling out the doucehbags on their douchebaggery and voting for people who are goign to fix things.

The first thing is to realize after 30 years, Supply Side Economics is a fairy-tale.

Yeah that'll work much better than getting off your ass and doing something really tangible.

You live under the delusion that your inaction is action.

It's not.

Guy, you can't hold down a job because you can't afford your medications, and you talk to me of delusions....

Really?

Again, I've taken specific action.

Illinois has one less wingnut in Congress because I worked for a war hero last time.

It's hilarious to listen to this guy whine on Hate Radio now.

Have a seat.

Sitting in your basement on a piss stained chair calling people douche bags is not taking action.

It isn't evidenced by your posts, guy.

Frankly, you kind of come off as kind of sad, because a person in your situation would probably benefit from the kind of progressive policies you oppose. Perhaps that's where all the resentment comes from?

Sounds like you are projecting, Comic Book boy.

That's funny. You call everyone douchebags and I'm projecting.

You're just another do nothing whiner who deludes himself that he actually is accomplishing something by calling people names.
