So I’m complaining at work that my manager double ordered truck instead of teaching me how to put in the order, and she’s taken two vacations, cuz she lives with her son and can afford to, and I’m stuck in this shithole while my fam is 6 hours away, literally all my nephews and nieces, sibs, etc.

So then I get a call from my manager, WHO’S ON VACATION, telling me not to bad mouth her in front of customers. So either a customer or a coworker snitched on me for venting.

Fuck this nazi ass country , people cant mind their own business.

Cool bug fact , they just relied on informants. Is this relevant? Idk but I’m pissed, watch your words

People be like “IN THE GDR 25% OF THE COUNTRY WERE INFORMANTS!” and it’s like oh cool when did you last call the fucking police, Brayden? Imagine living in a place where only 25% of the population snitched.

Counterpoint: just snitched on a coworker for joking about the new trans employee with really disgusting language. My work place is serious about their rainbow PR so It’s a rare treat when you can bring down the full weight of HR on a deserving target.

I managed to get one of my former managers and their assistant sent away to the sexual harassment gulag one time. When they came back they were even more vile. Was clear the company was backing them. Bigass company everyone has heard of too.

Snitching is like violence; whether it’s good or not is entirely dependent on context. Or was Boeing right to off that whistleblower for snitching?

“Snitches get stitches” is basically the lumpen version of libs detesting all violence no matter the reason.

Hopefully you just denied it. “I don’t know what you’re talking about” “I wouldn’t do that” etc. Force her to tell you how she heard, and then deny that too. “Oh yeah well my friend Mary was in the store and she said you said…” “She must have misheard I don’t know what you’re talking about, enjoy your vacation.” Unless she’s got you on voice recording or something just gaslight the shit out of bosses forever.

Imagine calling someone while they are vacation. Imagine someone on vacation still giving enough of a fuck to take time to do “work”.

That’s the parts that gets me heated. The idea that work is 24/7 365 for some people is beyond me.

i dont mind that you throw your actual life away for the boss, what heats me is that very often they want me to do the same.

Excellent point! The fact they want you to buy-in too because they did is just bonkers.

Man I’ve been a manager before if somebody called me while I was on leave for anything less than an apocalyptic emergency I would chew them out (when I got back because I’m trying to enjoy my leave here).
