Expecting excellent work for low pay is absolutely standard practice in retail. America destroyed their unions and look where it leaves you.
They’re not blocking you from DoorDash, they’re doing staff optimization which is pretty standard in American retail and makes it so that their costs fluctuate with the level of business, rather than being flat. It is extremely anti-labour, because you never have a predictable schedule.
Also, DoorDash isn’t really income. Subtract the IRS mileage deduction before you calculate your income. Spend the time picking up a trade or something.
Yep, I’m forklift certified from other companies, I wanna do Class B truck driving cause it’ll pay more than that. But $309.00 plus per week and expecting WAY more work is insanity.
Canadians don't file with the IRS.
And shitty managers absolutely schedule around making employees unable to find work elsewhere, if its really a staff scheduling issue good managers actually communicate it with affected staff. Especially when head office is dictating overly strict hours requirements.
It's not about the taxes, It's to account for depreciation, wear & tear, maintenance, & fuel.
