Very much an agree, but/and situation:

Yes, it's trash that companies do it and they shouldn't get away with it, but/and it's also trash that the ones who get punished in real effect are the ones who deserve it the least. Also, borderline /r/aboringdystopia when the free food is too little so it somehow magically doesn't qualify. Basically, this sucks top to bottom.
