i would say the workers that are striking against starbucks dont seem to understand that the job market is not very good. they may be lucky to have jobs right now.  it seems like there is some disconnection between the people who are employed.  these people remind me of the people who were grandfathered into an economy where the minimum wage was raised to 40 dollars and hour. but the people before them who were used to 12 dollars an hour were not able to get in to that economy.   the people who were used to making 12 dollars an hour were obvious and so they were not able to get in on the 40 dollar an hour economy.  the workers striking against starbucks remind me of the people that were able to get in to the 40 dollar an hour economy. they may not realize they may be lucky to be employed.   unpredictable schedules is also something the people who were used to making 12 dollars an hour  also dealt with.  i hear that in general the currently employed people took several part time jobs to have several income streams.    i just learned that recently.  they may have taken jobs from other people.  because  it was looked down on and possibly terms for termination for the people who made 12 dollars an hour, to have more than one job. if they found out you had more than one job, it could get you in trouble.    i mean if there was internet supression    it probably also   applied to the people making 12 dollars an hour     and they may have been suppressed from entering the 40 dollar an hour economy      the people from the 12 dollar an hour economy    were aged out of the workforce        but now i see people talking about raising the retirement age to 70      there are entire younger generations  that aged out of the workforce by 35 because of competition
