Having started on the night shift in the position I was hiring for, I felt it was good. Emphasis on the “keeping people” part of it. Hardly anyone (except this one guy) wants to stay on the night shift forever, and eventually no amount of shift differential will make up for it. Personally, I would much rather hire people from around the world since the work could be done remotely, so that no one has to work in the middle of the night.
Pretty easy to be flippant with “just pay more” without considering the realities of people’s preferences, how much I was able to offer before I was told no more, the quality of the people applying, the skills required, etc.
please tell me this is satire lol
No, it really isn't.
Anything to reduce the hit on profit is a virtue.
that person is so fucking out of touch with reality lol
They are present in their reality.
Nothing matters but profit, and the accumulation of more.
That's all they care about. Get that through your head.
