Why IBM employees in Brazil are suing to be classified as tech workers
restofworld.org
Unions in two Brazilian states are suing IBM in an effort to be recognized as tech employees, giving them access to better wages, benefits, and profit participation.

IBM registered itself (in Brazil) as a sales company.

sales workers have a 44-hour workweek — four hours more than the limit for tech workers. The latter are also entitled to a higher minimum wage, overtime pay, and profit participation — a year-end bonus that depends on the company’s annual profit.

    Uh boss, that Device here looks very techy to me. You should get a technician to handle it, I’d hate to be responsible for breaking it.
