Coronavirus: COVID-19

The Batlord · 05-28-2020, 02:29 PM

I was mostly joking ftr. A bit of misplaced malice here and there and... there... and there too... little bit over there as well, but the customers were always idiots and douchebags and COVID is just increasing the exposure to terrible customers rather than creating a brand new situation. I honestly don't know if certain jobs and certain places are getting strangely worse customers than usual or if the overwork is finally overloading workers' phony work persona so they can't ignore the **** I've been raging at for years.

I know you’re half joking but I’m down with the other half. People who think I’m being hyperbolic go work in food service for a couple years and get back to me. They work you until you can’t work and then leave you broken and homeless. It’s a death trap. We need to get frank about the reality of what no sick days, no benefits, close to or at minimimum wage means. It’s a life destroyed.

But it's okay cause those people have kids to carry on their parents' tradition of desperately stiff upper lip wage slavery. Obviously I understand why parents work **** jobs and let their bosses abuse and exploit them cause they need to provide for their kids but god damn, kids learn from their parents' example and when the parents teach that you should give in to exploitation as a virtue the kids most definitely learn that lesson.

My heart goes out to food industry workers. It's bad where I'm at but I give mad respect to food workers and medical workers.

Oh and we were providing free Whoppers to medical workers for like a month but we're done with that now cause the epidemic is over obviously.

Yeah. Once people stop thinking about something, it just vanishes. I've had customers literally tell me that it's a scam and they wont follow policy due to a "breech in your freedom." I then proceed to ask them to leave the store. I ain't getting sick.

What we’ve done and are doing is so much more negligent and INTENTIONAL

I would understand if the medical community just said **** you America / if you’re not going to try we’re not either

It’s two fold - their government takes action and ours doesn’t and people there have a sense of community not just selfish individualism

Make no mistake about it plenty of our oligarchy loves covid because of the medical debt and financial fall out on the poor. And the oligarchy is our government so I’m so ****ing sick of hearing other places are worse. Murdering the poor for profit is rock bottom and that is how we’re governed.

If you get it and it turns out to be a lifetime of complications that’s good. It means you’ll never escape debt and that’s where they want you from birth to death. No place on earth has this institutionalized like America.

And I’d like to only hate the rich but the poor are horrible people too. It’s like an American birth certificate is an assignment to be a piece of ****.

It has surprised me how many people think this.
