Just heard from someone who works at Wowburger that the company takes any gratuity you leave on the payment machines.

So, if this is true, it’s illegal in Ireland. Not to mention, a dick move regardless.

Anyone in Ireland know the Wowburger folks and/or where I can lodge a complaint about this?

Even better, what sort of nonviolent property destruction bleeds wealth from the hoards of the 1%, returning it to the population at large? Eg Attacking the security systems in corporate supermarkets so people can fill their pantries for free.

I'm taking inspiration here from wildcat strikes by public transport workers, where they kept the services going, but refused to charge passengers for riding them.

"Amazon is among the most notorious abusers of blue-collar labor, the workplace where everyone who doesn't have a bullshit laptop job is expected to piss in a bottle and spend an unpaid hour before and after work going through a bag- and body-search."

"... Data Workers Inquiry ... is a really important example of bringing attention to what's going on in the work that is hidden behind the facade of artificial intelligence because it's being marketed so heavily is fully automated when it's always people and so the various initiatives to make that visible are hugely meaningful even if they are small compared to the onslaught."

@data.workers.inquiry is the video channel for the #DataWorkersInquiry;

"... a community-based research project in which data workers join us as community researchers to lead their own inquiry in their respective workplaces. The community researchers guide the direction of the research, such that it is oriented towards their needs and goals of building workplace power but supported by formally trained qualitative researchers."
