American work culture scares the shite out of me. We have a type of work called ‘casual’ work, distinct from permanent part time and full time contracts. ‘Casual’ work applies a 25% loading on your pay, but in exchange, you can be let go for any reason, without notice, and do not have a guaranteed amount of hours/shifts. It’s intended to be offered to teenagers getting their first fast food job or whatever, but it’s abused by employers and we have a real problem with too many people working casual.
Anyway, imagine my actual horror when I discovered this ‘casual’ scheme is just about the standard framework for working in the states - and they don’t even get casual loading!
