Take the treat, thank the management and still fight for better wages and conditions. Its not either/or and if you think it is you’re a fucking idiot. You should ALWAYS be fighting for more.
Or work for a company that doesn’t pollute and kill its customers. This company is owned by Coke and it’s just sugar water with B-whatever added to it to make it “vitamin.”
a company that doesn’t […] kill its customers.
Has Coca Cola started a kick murder squad that I*m not aware of, or did they add polonium to Coke?
Who are you talking to? No one is disagreeing with you, not to that degree for sure.
Its a mindset thing, it really ticks me off that I see this type of image on social media and at my own job all the time like its a either/or thing. Admittedly this one isnt as infuriating as most but still…
When they have a BBQ breakfast at my work. Between 60 people they spend $300 on bacon, eggs and sausages. It costs them $5 a head once a month and theres always 2 or 3 people spouting off about raises but these idiots arent in the union, they just complain about being given a free breakfast and do nothing to actually generate momentum towards better wages and conditions.
If my union came back from wage negotiations with $5 per month I would immediately quit the union and start looking for a new job. $5 a month is an INSULT of a raise, but a free lunch is still a free lunch. Take the free lunch, thank the boss for organising it and still fight for better conditions. This was given to you, you didnt have to fight for it so be grateful, but still fight for what you deserve.
Yea, I’m not that desperate, though. These worthless acts should be openly mocked for exactly what they are: management’s idea that we are stupid enough to actually be fooled by that shit.
It would be far more worth it to me to take the bottles and return them than give them any satisfaction and/or validation. They are worth so little to me that I don’t mind throwing them back and management should know that. These aren’t “treats”, they’re cheap replacements for significant moneyary compensation.
Free breakfast is certainly a little bigger than this, but it still doesn’t actually do anything to help anyone. It’s just another thing they can point to to pretend like they care while ignoring the only thing that will ever truly matter which is that they need to fucking pay us. I’ve had bosses before that pull that shit and then you ask for a raise that at least matches inflation and they try to tell you that “inflation doesn’t work that way.”
So if we’re talking “mindsets” I really don’t have much time for people that think shit like vitamin water instead of a bonus is a “treat” we need to be grateful for. I never did like the taste of boot.
The point is taking the free shit DOESNT give them leverage. If they imply it does you call bullshit because it IS bullshit. I dont fight for what I’m worth any less hard because I get a free bacon and egg sandwich.
I agree with the sentiment but that is aggravatingly fake
Boss makes a grand
I make a buck
That’s why I steal

Yeah, how did management get approval to requisition that off the sales floor? The big box retail store would never be allowed to do something like this. I mean, they were giving out ten cent raises a few months ago.
Sales, he should get a fat bonus from that kind of a quarter
I mean, it’s nice to get recognition still. If you never got a raise, then it would become a problem and you should handle it as such. But if you’re doing your job and already getting paid for it, then you’re already getting rewarded. The company making profit is exactly why you’re still working and can be paid, so unless you’re doing something you were not hired for I don’t see the issue with giving a little extra non financial attention.
If you’re really lucky, the CEO might show you a picture of the third yacht your hard work and dedication got him!
Casually admitting you let yourself getting abused by your boss and assuming everyone else does.
If you contribute to the profit, you should get a fair share of the profit. And not some pennies while those higher in the hierachy reap most of the profit for themselves.
ZERO SUGAR?!ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?! POOKY LES BURN THIS MOTHERFUCKA DOWN!!
Probably stevia (ideas for a potential daughter’s first name??)
Good luck with that, even with a union. Our incentive plan has metrics that executives control. Cash on hand? Profits? Buy a company. Stock goes up, cash and profits neutral, here’s your 1% minimum boys.
If you have a bad quarter the bosses roll out office dehydrators
knowing how cheap they are, though, it’s just those little silca packs you get in beef jerky
