> Did the job offer say "must attend morning meetings"? Some job offers specify work hours and most don't.

But there is implicit assumption in a job offer that meetings ought to be attended on time. Sometimes, meeting times are decided based on mutual convenience. Sometimes, they are dictated by your boss. Nothing wrong with that.




People can claim "implicit assumptions" all they want. Most rapists believe in an "implicit assumption" that the woman wants to have sex with them. That doesn't make it true.

I can't tell if you're trolling or serious, and I'm not sure I even want to know.


Well, you are the one who likened corporate bosses to rapists, so I cannot tell if you are trolling either.


No, I didn't. I was pointing out the ridiculous nature of "implicit assumptions" arguments that can be taken to all sorts of extremes.


You basically Godwinned the discussion, dude. Except you used rapists rather than Hitler. There are ways to make your point without resorting to ridiculous hyperboles.
