I have a project I'm working on where I need to turn a bunch of bank statements into spreadsheets, is that an example what you're talking about? If so, I am extremely interested and would love to know how to implement it.

It's not letting me look at the links, I think they're formatted for you if you're logged in but don't allow someone else to view the files. You may have to share the files from within dropbox to get a public link.
Arbitration does not have precedent, so each case has to be argued separately and can have different outcomes. On top of that burden and can have fee-shifting provisions that set a significant hurdle to pay upfront costs on the employee. Class action waivers are bullshit.
These arbitration rules superceding class action is a fairly new phenomenon, and stems from an att v concepcion. A guy I met clerked for a judge that decided that case, and wrote most of the decision and he said that he regretted it enormously. Despite just being the mouthpiece of his pos judge, he sees his words quoted over and over denying exploitation. The whole premise is insane, and guts class actions.
