Oh no, not a petition! That will show them! I bet the corporate executives are shaking in their boots.

[Pikachu_Dad]

That is a pretty big financial pebalty incurred if they go one hour over.

Reminds me of my time at P&G. Working overtime during the week was forbidden, but if you wanted to come in over the weekend and donate a day's work, that was great.

Same with prn nurses.

Too bad. Petition Obama who takes pride in this fiasco. See how far that will go. Otherwise, live with it as you most likely voted for this buffoon on the hill.

This is the fault of the ill-conceived piece of carp bill that the Democrats passed with zero GOP support - without reading! I don’t blame Staples one bit!

Let’s all work two part time jobs. Great idea. That way we can have two careers and be sure we really get ahead in life. Aint America wonderful.

Staples Story that this policy has been in place doesn’t address directly the question if this is related to Obamacare, it is and they know it.

Companies who try to hide their motivations do everyone a disservice.

Now 1/2 of America finds out what’s in it!!! /Democrat Nancy Pelosi

Staples Story that this policy has been in place doesn’t address directly the question if this is related to Obamacare, it is and they know it.

But if they say so explicitly then suddenly the FTC is denying Staples' request to merge with Office Depot, the IRS is auditing them from esophagus to rectum and no one in government is buying so much as a single number 2 pencil from them.

If they are in California, they will be kept under 19 hours, as California considers 20 hours “full time” for both healthcare benefits and a higher minimum wage.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

They need to petition Obama!

[Irenic]

Many of the part time jobs such as this don’t give you a set schedule, which makes finding and keeping a second job difficult.

Hertz RAC is doing about the same thing I have heard

And fully funded over and over again ever since by the GOP-led House, the controllers of the national purse strings, supposedly.

yes, as a matter of fact, America IS wonderful, in so many ways. Obambi, however is not wonderful. Dems are not wonderful. Socialism is not wonderful.

WTH is wrong with that state? I suspect the medical marijuana they claimed was healing them has affected their brains. It seems that the state does everything thats contrary to good, common sense, logic, or reason. Now I’m mainly talking Southern California, not so much the Northern part.
