They didn't lose $5 million, they always owed it to the workers. The way this is worded seems to normalize or even romantisize wage theft.

Why would you do a job like that without getting paid overtime? 😬😬

$5m should be the standard penalty for not using an Oxford Comma.

They didn’t “lose” money. They paid more of what they should pay.

They didn't lose 5M dollars, they were stealing money from their employees hard work. Typical corporate thieves exploiting helpless.

I think more importantly, it says packing OR distribution—that’s clearly two separate things, comma or no comma 🙄

@knoxstudy Do you think the courts' interpretation of the sentence is correct? What do you think the legislator meant?

Very interesting. Recently, the Word App has been updated to indicate and error when no comma is provided before the last term in a list.

doesn't this contradict your video about the irrelevancy of the Oxford comma? or am I missing something?

There should have been an “or” after “storing” to support that interpretation. I think the decision is wrong.
