Okay. I don't quit, I'm just leaving this scheduled shift and not coming to any of my future scheduled or yet to be scheduled shifts, and I'm not telling you. I'm just walking out the door and never picking up my phone again. Do something about it.
I'd make a joke about them trying to send the cops after you but they'd probably do it.

Every day homesteading seems all the more attractive.
One very helpful thing about bosses and companies going more and more mask-off with regards to how little workers mean to them is a lot of great moments to plant leftist seeds. I have been making efforts to pop-in with anti-capitalist quips and conversations with basically everyone I can. Though I am a poor teacher in lacking enough proper theory. I am however there to actually empathize with co-workers and point to all the contradictions placed on us from both our direct GM (and his team of boot lickers that came with him) and corporate. I also try to teach them things that they may not be aware of because basically 90% of the people in the store haven't been there more than a full year. Sometimes able to find customers that are receptive while helping them. But those are tricky and tend to be at least good for expressing how most of the things they get frustrated about while shopping are fully related to greed from above that means less people to help customers. Just have to learn to read enough into each moment to see which levels of things to try and who might be ready to hear it.
It is really bad that things are getting worse on so many fronts for so many people. However it is also one of the most crucial times to do everything possible to educate the masses. If the left doesn't really start mobilizing and taking time to help others un-learn the defeatism and the lies about what socialism/communism and even freaking anarchism are truly about. Because times like this are also beyond perfect for fascists to gain support with low hanging fruit populist sounding shit. And they love the hell out of some reactionaries that act without understanding. Both sets of normie liberals and conservatives have only learned shit from entertainment and take actions that are great for a photo-op or a one day thing. But they all just think that it ends with holding signs and yelling things, just to go home "feeling" like they did something major.
Both parties keep deflecting and only say "voting harder" is how change will happen. While not doing a damn thing while in office. Just all one constant campaign focused on just winning elections. No fighting and the voters are going along with it. And even if say the Dems got full freaking turn out and got crazy large ultra majorities in all offices. They would then just avoid using that time to do the shit people want. Just say that they "are focused on X at the moment and the other stuff just needs to wait". Then act like them losing offices is all just the fault of lazy voters.
shocked that someone is greedy enough to want more than at-will employment
Imagine being so ungrateful of bastards, that laws need to pass just to force them to even pay their workers at all.
Why do normies want ancapistan again? Are they really THAT naive?
That's also not allowed until you've spoken to the Restaurant Manager or the Area Supervisor
Toiling in the McGrimace shake fields under the cruel lash of the burger clown
I'm honestly stunned that a corporation as large as McDonald's would do something so blatantly, indefensibly illegal. This is the kind of shit a stupid small business kulak tries to pull before getting sued into oblivion.
edit: Never mind, it was a franchisee (i.e. small business tyrant). Still terrible, but at least they're dumb enough to open themselves to lawsuits and bad publicity.
It's unclear where the sign originated, but it seems likely it was hung in a single McDonald's franchise, as there's no way a global corporation like McDonald's would ever be so brazen as to post something so unhinged. But wherever it came from, it has left people online slack-jawed for its audacity.
Another reason to add to the dozens of reasons not to order anything at McDonald's
ah, i told my boss once i was quitting and they said that i couldn't, so i just left
Remember that fuckin time
