      It's crazy because he's writing this about... a single employee?

      Literally just do it yourself.

        In the same sentence he says that it's a slow time of the year, too. Sure, he probably has other work, but is it that much that he couldn't take an afternoon and square the big important order away?

        Managers will do anything but actual work lmao.

    The employee is fulfilling his obligations under the U.N. Convention against Genocide, namely not providing material assistance to genociders. Fuck the company for not cancelling the order in the first place.

      every single time I've ever brought up an ethical consideration at work it has been this

      also always paired with some assurance that "leadership puts a lot of thought & careful consideration into these issues"

    This guy is not American. All these answers to write him up and take him to HR probably doesn't work in OPs country. In gonna guess he is European and his employees are unionized. Going to HR probably isn't going to solve shit. The company will have to face the union which most companies would rather avoid.

    You're better off talking to someone who knows the dynamics of the country you work in.

      They're middle managers, moreover middle managers who use reddit and sub to r/managers, they actually cannot find their butt with both hands

      That comment section is wild. Even the comments that aren't outright telling him to fire the employee are only doing so because "it will make you look bad on social media" or "Dealing with unions is too much of a hassle".

      I've said it before but I'll say it again. I've come to hate the word nuance because of posts like this. They act like just because they have "nuance" their take is automatically more based than anyone who, for example, thinks genocide is bad.

        99% of the time in the imperial core nuanced just means "yeah it seems obviously bad but I know if I develop an actual opinion about it I will have to change my behavior"

      He doesn't give a fuck and only cares about making money but doesn't want to acknowledge that is his belief so it gets complicated.

      He wants to hold bad opinions but also wants to think of himself as a good person, complicated.

      The idea of "nuance" has joined the ideas of "logic and reason" in the pantheon of concepts that have been gutted and flayed by reactionaries who now ritually parade around wearing the skin as a religious totem to confer a veneer of authority to their omnicidal depravity.

      Maybe that's true maybe it's not. Maybe the manager is a wage slave living paycheck to paycheck just like the rest of us.

      Frankly I've always wondered why management doesn't unionize along with the rest against the c-suite.

    Thinkin bout thos things that made this particular member of staff difficult. What did he mean by that I wonder? I'm going to bet it leans more towards "not willing to work for free" rather than "gets in drunk fistfights with other employees in the parking lot"
