>>62181643I look like this and say this
>>62181643i'm in my late 30s (white collar job etc.) but i still remember how fucking retarded retail/service industry managers were. even the district manager "elites" were insufferably fucking dumb retards.
>>62181643Yes. Because you don't want employees to develop bad habits
>>62181643>>62181651Not really. I don’t want the wagie to be sitting down while he is serving me.
Stand up wagie.
>>62181657The wagie must be standing while servicing me.
>>62181643this is why I will never do retail again in my life, I would legitimately rather steal shit to survive than be forced to stand for 8 hours at a time because some retard said so
>>62181656Correct.
>>62181643When I was starting out on my first job the manager laid out the first ground rule: >"If you have time to lean, you have time to clean°The audacity to even THINK about sitting now tells me you whippersnappers have no gumption.
>>62181672I love retail. my back pain that I developed from sitting at a desk all the time went away after working retail. It was like I never had the problem.
>>62181677while* working retail
>>62181677There's a balance that has to be struck between sitting and moving around. I've had desk jobs that keep you chained and get upset if you walk around and I've had retail jobs that want you standing all day long. Either way you have to pretend to look busy and act slightly retarded so they don't reward you with more work, the whole thing is a scam.
>>62181672This is why you are a loser and pathetic
>>62181651To be fair, you have to be a major fuckup to end up as a middle manager in fucking retail/fast food. Thats barely a real job. Youre a babysitter to make sure Charlie Zoomer shows up on time and not 5 minutes late like last time and Jacquan and Laquisha don't fight each other on shift.
>>62181672This arrogant wagie attitude is why you guys get mocked
>>62181676This attitude developed because of a tangible lack of respect from a company towards the individual employee, the lack of which the boomer mind cannot comprehend.
>>62181656>>62181674Then I will be on my phone every chance I get and have zero respect for the company unless you are looking directly at me. Your move.
>>62181677>my back pain that I developed from sitting at a desk all the timeLift weights. Get a standing desk.
>>62181643>>62181651do it really be like that in those jobs?WHY?WHY MUST IT BE THIS WY
>>62181643Sitting in a chair for a wagie job and if you disagree, you are low class.
>>62181666don't even THINK about being on that phone
>>62181666>jamboy squats to shit>toilet breaksBLOODY BASTARD THIS IS WHY U SHIT IN PARKING LOT
demoralization spam boardhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0j6pe043L4
>>62181725>>62181737>You're pathetic if you don't bow to retail middle management Cuckold
>hey from today on all our restaurant employees will have to pay for the food here they eat during their break
>>62182016This is a personal huge pet peeve.
>>62181643Deal in the real world, bitch.
>>62181953>retail middle managementThis has nothing to do with that. If standing at your wagie job is an issue or you have a problem with it, you are definitely lower class.
>>62181824What kind of attitude is this? lol. I can’t even tell if you’re trolling. This is peak reddit tier posting.
>>62181895I am lanky, I stay away from barbells. I stick with volleyball, swimming, table tennis, stuff like that.My last office gig had standing desks. I would make resolutions to stand x hours every day just to rebound to sitting all the time again. In retail there is no chance of sitting which was awesome for me.
>>62181643give me a job right now or I will kill you
Isn't standing healthier than sitting o algo?
>>62182202Not if you’re an American.
>>62181643Dude I think about this all the time at Amazon and it's one of the small indicators that this society is a retard dog and pony show. Sometimes I am waiting for 10 mins for my machine to be one and I think to myself "what if I could just SIT DOWN right now?" Heck my job and a lot of the other jobs could be done with a chair.
>>62181657When I worked at a cannery in Alaska there was this 16 yo but he was very tall, maybe 6"6? Anyways he had a position of putting fish onto a conveyor belt and he was sitting on two stacked buckets and his long arms were doing all the work. Had a good pace and was doing good work. The manager waited till he got up and snatched those buckets with such rage I was surprised. Rarely saw him like that and it was usually for a good reason. The kid wondered what the issue was but we all knew that that's simply how it is when dealing in the real world. My manager doesn't even bust his ass physically at that job so idk what he was pissed about.
>>62181656Are we animals? Are we children??? We can control what habits we develop just fine.
>>62182409are we human or are we dancer
>>62182402Idk, manager was mad he was sitting. What did the kid do after? You can sit in private imo, just not in public.
>>62182409Then how come 90% of people are poor?
>>62181824Great, as soon as you slip up you're fired, thanks bye
>>62182449I simply won't slip up. Brb it's time for my hourly bowel movement. Sucks for you LOLAnd to think all you had to do was respect your wagies
>>62182427What was the issue with him sitting? His pace was just the same and due to hi unusual height he was able to reach everything just fine. These were 16-24 hour shifts mind you, 100hr work weeks
Wait until the middle management shills ITT find out about Porn at Work Wednesdays
>>62182461What gets me is when team leads make a big show when they don't have the power to write up anyone or even the fact that none of the shit is falling down on them. Some people just get off on being in "charge" of others.
>>62181666>uses 3 rolls of toilet paper to make the seat level againNot My Fucking Problem.
Man I always feel so comfy reading these threads from my work from home lake house, caught a big bass last Thursday while on long boring teams meeting from my dock
>>62182610lol legit cope post
>>62181737Lmao cope harder cuck
I think we should start banning employees from having caffeine too. It, like sitting, is too convenient and makes the work day too easy, am I right?
>>62181666>Turns my 30 minutes toilet breaks into free leg workoutSign me the fuck up
Why the fuck do blue collar workers get treated like shit compared to white collar ones? I've worked all types of jobs (retail, warehouse, white collar office, etc.) and the double standards are insane. In my last warehouse job you literally could not be a single second over your break time. You could not even idle or take a breather if you finished your allotted work (because you were just faster/better at your job) so they find some other random shit for you to do. They penalize you for working harder. Meanwhile in my current fake email job I can just leave my desk and go for a walk anytime I want. I can disappear for 30 mins to go to the grocery store. No one cares.
Fuck target wagies
>>62181734that sounds like hell
>>62184233You can disappear in your fake email job because your productivity doesn't need to be as rigorously monitored as the average blue collar worker. You're not trapped in a machine for 12 hours or stuck on an assembly line and need to make quotas. Your work doesn't produce anything of value, or you'd be getting your ass kicked from the moment you clock in. Just be glad you don't work for someone like Mr Jassy. Or you'd be getting your ass kicked and still producing nothing of value.
