Should outdoor work automatically stop once temperatures reach a certain level?
Unpopular OpinionI'm a bartender, and I see people come in stressed or fake smiling then leave after a few drinks and some bad decisions looking lighter. Sitting in a quiet room talking about your childhood for an hour just keeps you stuck in your head. Go dance, talk shit with strangers, make dumb choices. NOT saying never get help but most folks just need to get out of their apartment and stop treating every feeling like a crisis.13

Unpopular OpinionIts terrible pay for a reason. It should motivate you to work harder, not beg for the government to raise your wage. If youre 28 still bagging fries and mad about rent thats on you.181
Unpopular OpinionThey need everything right now or they throw a hissy fit. Make amazon same day delivery illegal and that would solve 90% of society's issues.00

Free SpeechA kid cusses out a teacher, throws a chair, or spends the period making everybody miserable and the first move is always trauma, diagnosis, more meetings. Sometimes the kid just has no rules at home and figured out we will not do anything either. Kids must have consequences. You can care about a kid and still send them out of the room or suspend them.111

Any rule would need pay protection. Otherwise workers will hide symptoms or keep going because losing half a shift means missing rent. That's capitalism.

And no retaliation. If the rule depends on them telling their boss they're dizzy, it's already failed. Employees are gonna second guess how they feel to not piss anyone off.

Stfu. Communism and socialism would do the same. Capitalism lets you start a competitor that treats workers fairly.

Can't do a flat cutoff. 95 in the shade isn't 95 in full sun wearing heavy gear. Require water, shade and breaks then set a hard stop when it gets unsafe.

Florida banned cities and counties from making their own workplace heat rules, so apparently the legal limit here is "good luck." A statewide standard would be nice before more workers end up hospitalized over somebody's landscaping schedule.

Whatever law they make needs to cover indoor workplaces too. Warehouses, kitchens can get brutally hot even when the outdoor temperature looks fine.
