Why are you downvoted? I have the same question.
Let me try to help you:
The boss is against retirement/pension, he thinks people who doesn't work doesn't deserve to live a good life. In a nutshell, the boss is a dickhead.
That leaves me with even more questions. If that is actually what this person is thinking... what about children? What if someone gets sick? Or breaks something? Not to mention that the downvotes here make absolutely no sense.
That doesn't address the question, let alone answer it.
? They quit the job because of the dickhead, is not because of their parent, is the attitude of the boss.
Yes, exactly. So the answer to the question was "nothing". You didn't answer it.
Some people don't want to work for assholes. Pretty self explanatory.
Unless they can't see the difference between the dickhead and themselves.
Did AI take over these comments?
Yes, it is and that's a good thing even. Still doesn't answer the question.
If the question is "what do your parents have to do with your job" then it does.
Boss doesn't believe in supporting people who can't work. Everyone will eventually be unable to work, whether due to age, illness, some kind of trauma, whatever.
Is it really a good idea to work for someone who wants to ensure you can't even live once you stop making them money?
Did you reply to the wrong person?
