If you buy a candy bat a coke from the vending machine that cost about $2.50. If the company gets 10% then that means they get a quarter for providing convenient snacks and drinks to their employees.
If you make $12 an hour that means you are working SEVENTY-FIVE SECONDS for FREE.
TIME FOR A REVOLT AGAINST THE CAPITALIST OVERLORDS!!!!!
You know, it's not gonna add up to the waste of say, cigarettes or something of that nature, but it does add up over time. With your low estimations, it adds up to over 17 hours over a 30 yr career. But I'd bet, and I've seen it with my own eyes that the average is closer to $5.00 per day, so essentially you're working an entire week for free during those same 30 yrs, which doesn't include all those weekends you've spent at your job, so factor that in too. So now you're looking at even more than one week. If you're like me and work nearly every Saturday, then you can bet it's closer to two wks over the course of a career. Now factor in the average amount of employees that do this and you'll quickly realize a given company is shaving years outta their employees.
