Anti-Capitalist Sentiment (with some morality)

If he's just getting an hourly wage, well all he'll do is what his job description tells him to do. If he's got a vested interest in the company, well he might start taking more care of the plants, which will have a beneficial effect on yield.

Why do you think this is true? When I first started in a job earning just over minimum wage on a zero hours contract I went above and beyond whilst having no intention to stay there long enough to gain any benefits from this in terms of longer term employment, more money, promotions, professional development, etc. It wasn't even in an industry I wanted to work.

You're a rare breed if you're doing more than expected on a zero hours contract with no hope or even ambition of development.

I wouldn't even take a zero hours contract. You were talking of security being an incentive not so long ago. You don't even have that, and you're grafting. Yeah, a rare breed. Either that or naively keen to make an impression.

Zero hours contract actually was ideal for me. It meant when I didn't want to go to work I didn't go. If I wanted to take some time off I did. If anything it benefited me much more than the company using it. You're obviously thinking when people exploit them and have tonnes of workers on them who they force into poor working conditions with the threat of no work.
