I very much want to fulfil this order
Damn, sounds like you better shut the fuck up and pack it yourself.
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.
on one hand, wall
on the other hand, cuck pit
many potential options inbetween. a true range of views
I want money and this peon has moral objections to doing the labor, wut do
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.
You are 100% right but I'm laughing my ass off at sriracha or whatever being "material assistance"
"my own views are nuanced and involve me getting paid money"
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
The kind of person who will choke to death on an apple because they didn't know you're supposed to chew it.
jesus we are truly whipped like dogs in this shitty country.
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 imagine the IDF's MREs being just falafel suspended in aspic, drizzled in mayonnaise
Schindler, facing certain death for treason: I will take no part in this genocide
Small business tyrant, facing minor losses: Look I don't agree 100% with Israel but my Q1 bottom line!
"Nuanced"
So he supports Israel but doesn't like the bad optics of cheering for dead Palestinians.
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"
I kinda know is bad, but its also benefits me, so I'm just going to pretend is a complex topic where nobody's really right.
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"
Better the ex wife. Losers like this doesn't deserve a wife.
"I texted him at 9 am on a Saturday to come in for unscheduled work and he sent me a very rude picture as a response"
IDF soldiers get tubs of mayonnaise and state mandated gooning sessions and they still have the audacity to complain
Actually putting things in boxes!
