You think you are heard when you do this? Is there any gain for anyone at all?

It's like blaming an ethernet cable for giving your computer a virus.

The designer of the virus is the asshole, and you would be the idiot who went to the website.

You are right that mental pain is an exaggeration, but it's the accumulation of insufferable interactions that make you hate retail. When 25% of people expect you to act for them, you feel like a puppet. YES the business demands this, but the customer invokes it. So don't invoke it and let workers sigh relief when you decide not to try to "test" their company response. Is this really that complicated?

They must start the topic to have the job. They likely already know. They likely don't care. Your game forces them to pretend to care. You are holding them hostage because their genuine reaction would be to ignore you but they can't do that while working. You are causing them mental pain. You are forcing them to be something they aren't until you leave.

As if the cashier is trying to engage in a discussion of class. As if they aren't paid to ask. Just say no and feel secure with your own reasons without having to justify yourself. It's like when I worked at ace hardware in high school and every boomer would need to tell me how dumb it is to phase out incandescent light bulbs. Trying to preach to someone about your convictions against their will is so pointless and annoying.

Yeah it's hard to replace reddit and lemmy is by far the best. Just needs time to mature.

This is why retail sucks. Just pay for your stuff.

Whatever gets you off

What's the plan then?

No and no? There you go bro

And this is why mob rule isn't the way to run a society lmao.

You are legitimately curious to know if they are a billionaire tycoon?

If you have a question for a self-proclaimed republican then ask it. Don't pretend to inquire with them for an opportunity to insult them. That's not respectful.

Bad managers are a waste of resources just like bad front line employees are a waste of resources. Any role that has less oversight has more potential for abuse that is harder for the company to recognize. It's probably easier to notice an underperforming employee in person than it is virtually.

The longer term effect on growth of talent and teams is probably still largely unknown.
