That is in theory. In an economy where number of potential employees roughly equal the number of potential employers.
In reality employers are few and potential employees are many. So, management would just opt to fire you and hire someone else. They have this well-oiled. Austerity, high unemployment, bad economy are just another tools for managers to squeeze employees even more and turn it into a wage-slavery under the power-trippy management. Even if you call them out on this BS, they know there are enough idiots who would work for pennies so there is no need to hire someone who wants more pay and better working conditions.
At this stage only UBI can level the negotiations field. If people had UBI, that would give them good enough leverage in negotiations and management would have to make their job offers competitive enough to entice people to apply.
Currently average job offer sound more like list of demands from a highway bandit. It's nothing like an ad, aiming to take employees away from the uncompetitive businesses with employee unfriendly policies.
