As an electrician I always took work from my company .. They worked with a commercial builder he would give me all of his smaller jobs another residential builder did the same thing hooked me up….. side jobs were the best that’s where you made your money because your boss at your real company was a cheap fuck …lol

All is fair in capitalism. Only when a worker plays capitalism, then it’s unethical.🤡

Where does morality play a role in business? Profit=entire goal. Morals are only a consideration in as far as it has an impact on profits.

I need a job done, one offer is for $100, the other is for $500. Both will complete the job for me satisfactorily. Isn’t this capitalism?

Making money off of other people’s labor is as scummy as it gets. Muh capitalism

I would question the ethics of the system that says he who does it cheapest wins. The painter played by the rules of capitalism and out competed his opponent. According to the rules of the road he wins.

There are some major in vestment companies buying up rental properties. Those would show as cash buys.

We did Thanksgiving at the National Hotel circa 1992. It was like THE SHINING. We were the only people staying there, I swear....

You are living wrong, then. Not a criticism, just an observation. The Block is the Shit.

Well. Looks like it's mostly waterfront property in RI that reddit couldn't afford, and have probably been cash buyers all along.

Business is likely paying their worker dick wages, which means they are getting some form of government subsidies for the shit wages, which means you are already paying for it. Might as well pay the guy who is being screwed and needs it rather than the corporate welfare recipient…..

Ask yourself, if the company is willing to charge you double for the same job why would you?

Tell me…..does that painter get to write off the gas he uses to get to work? Does he get to write off his car payments? How about his rent/mortgage payments? Does he pay a minimal tax rate? Does he pay higher tax rate for the money he makes hourly vs the owner? Cry me a river chief. The business would fire him and replace him in a moment if they could make more with someone else. Profits is all that matters. Morals are only for the workers apparently? When does a company realistically give a rats ass about an employee unless it involves making them profit? Why should this painter give a rats ass about making sure the company can screw someone and make a profit off his labor? Fail to see upside in terms of business sense for the worker. He takes risk of asking for side job (customer could rat him out and get him fired), he offers (competition and capitalism let’s not forget there’s no loyalty or morals, the market rules) to give the customer a better deal. That’s the way the cookie crumbles.

The ompany didn't play by those rules, they employed the painter, spent the money and time to earn this next job. The company isn't the one lacking morals here.
