    And they don’t need to. Just like we don’t need to give them a reason why we’re not going to buy their shit any more.

        You can’t exactly force a company to employ someone. Even in a pro-labor-rights country the employer would be free to terminate. The termination would come with all sorts of employee benefits of course.

          This is uninformed bullshit. You are wrong and talking with authority on something you clearly know nothing about, I can only assume you live somewhere without employee protections and rights.

          That’s false and you know it. Or it’s a lie for some reason.

            Honestly curious why you believe otherwise. Termination without cause is absolutely allowed, and again, comes with legal provisions for the employee. In Ontario, Canada, for example, this manifests in severance pay.

            I’m not super well versed in EU practices so perhaps it’s even more strict but fundamentally if a company cannot afford to retain an employee they must have the ability to let them go.

              Germany is famous for employing people part time, and then the state compensates the employees when not working. This is done to keep people that the company otherwise couldn’t afford, employed.

              Forbidden in France and I guess most of Europe.

              If a company cannot afford to retain employees, it’s a very long process with lawyers and you dont get to choose who leaves.
