    If you volunteer for this shit and you don’t have to, you are dumb as hell. Even if you need to volunteer somewhere and this is your choice, you are semi dumb.

      I remember having the argument 20 years ago about working for free so you can put it on your CV. Not so happy to see it progress past interns and right to general labour.

      Here’s a thing. Yes. What you say is true… But when you have legitimate paying jobs that demand recent experience in retail, then this sort of thing becomes attractive to people that just want a fucking job.

      Don’t blame people for doing this, blame the system for making them feel like they have to.

        At some point workers need to stand up to themselves.

        But really, everyone gets some blame. The “employers”, the workers, and the government that allows this kind of things to be legal.

      Not necessarily, I would do it and mess it up really bad just to make them look even worse.
