I mean, if they're only half as capable (I'm not making that argument, you are)

No, I'm not.

I'm saying they're fully capable. They're fully doing two jobs. They're two people, both working.

You're the one, saying they're doing one job. Two people, sharing one job, so they get paid half each.

Would you apply that logic to anyone else? I hope not. The hours aren't half and half are they?

They knew this going in

Ah, exploitation is ok if you opt in! I'll let the indentured servants in the middle east know!

It wasn't a surprise to them

Yeah I imagine there is a lot of shit they aren't surprised by. I wouldn't extend that to mean it's good.

There are jobs that they could have been hired that would earn them pay for 2 people, but they chose one that is only suited for the pay of one person.

... This is so dystopian. What other person do you apply that logic to?

Oh you shouldn't be a teacher, you're more suited to a supermarket role, so it's ok to pay half?

That's fucking evil mate.

They're fully doing two jobs.

Teaching one class is one job whether you have 1 teacher, 12 teachers, or 3 dogs in a trenchcoat.

u/Mike_Kermin 1d ago

But they're, BOTH, teaching that class.

That's two people. Working hours.

If you have 12 teachers doing that, you need to pay, 12 times.

That's how pay works.

If you have 12 teachers doing that, you need to pay, 12 times.

Which is why we don't do that. Also, who tf taught you how to use commas? You just, pu,t them wherever, YOU, want apparently,,,

Yeah, so your take, is "disabled? Fuck you then".

So....

You're wrong.

You just, pu,t them wherever, YOU, want apparently,,,

Yeah, you can use them to break up sentances to direct people how to read them.

You're the guy or did

2 teachers, or 3 dogs in a trenchcoat.

So don't @ me about comma use lol.

u/Germisstuck 1d ago

That's literally a correct way to use commas.

1

u/Mike_Kermin 1d ago

No, that's for when it's an independent clause.

2

u/Germisstuck 1d ago

No, you use commas for both of them, where using them before "or" and "and" is optional, search up the Oxford comma.

u/Mike_Kermin 1d ago

You're trolling. You have to know it's use is a "thing".

2

u/Germisstuck 1d ago

Ok, so it's like...everything else in life? You said "your point about my comma usage is invalid because you used commas wrong" (paraphrased, of course) even though the person used commas in a valid way? Then I called you out on it, and you call me a troll? If anything, you're the troll here.

u/Mike_Kermin 1d ago

So you're allowed to call them one worker and I'm not allowed to be on the no oxford commas side?

Jfc that's a bold set of priorities.
