I just like the employment title "Crew Member", as it implies a franchise is like a big ship and the manager is the Captain and you should absolutely mutiny the vessel in order to become some kind of fast food pirate.
Although the name of Denmark's Zealand had nothing to do with the Dutch, for some reason the shallow sea above Zealand was named by the Dutch though. They called it "kattegat", which means "cat's hole" because it was so difficult to navigate that metaphorically only a cat could squeeze through.
ngl I don’t enjoy dunking on desperate poor people who are effectively funneled into these types of paths.
Like, yes, fuck the troops, no excuse for being part of the imperial war machine but it’s uncomfortable knowing that there’s a small percentage of privileged leftists who never had to make this choice.
A significant number of troops straight up chose the army not for money, but for easy prestige. Best way to judge them is on a case by case basis I guess.

I've grown more left-leaning as I've climbed the corporate ladder. Knowing how I lived doing part-time work as a college kid relative to how I lived out of college working an entry level IT job and then on up into the guts of the O&G sector grants a certain perspective.
Nobody should have to live on a McDs salary, mechanically churning out treat food for some office drones handling the back-office accounting. Nobody should be making six (or seven or eight) figures in passive income by squeezing a dozen people below them for rents. The deeper I get into the machine, the more I want to destroy it.
Its so much harder to understand when you're on that bottom floor and you think "rich" is the distance between you and the General Manager. Its harder to understand when you're just exhausted every day and you don't have time to think.
But once you're on the outside again, you look back at what you went through with a kind of horror.
small percentage
oh, it isn't small lmao
us poors are a fucking minority online
more of us irl, but online is the domain of the privileged uni-leftists
Meh, army reserves just means they're still part time, so probably still making shit money, except they just traded in a McDonald's uniform for a clown uniform
I thought it meant they served active and are currently on the inactive reserve portion of their contract.
