30 Posts That Show How Ridiculous Capitalism Is Getting

Bravo. Asking the salary range, so as to not waste your time, is perfectly valid. Not giving the information is a huge red flag

My vet has a sign on their door that says something along the lines of they won't tolerate bad behavior from the pets or the owners.

Shout it from the mountaintop!

On the bright side, inappropriate use of "four" suggests they don't require a college degree. /J

Wow.. I wouldn't be suprised if the rich who are in charge really think that way and do everything to make our life even more miserable just so we consume endlessly. Everytime I read something like this I just feel like a sad little puppet..

Pure evil. And this is from a company that makes money hand over fist - or should I say hand over trotter?

That was exactly my immediate concern when I first heard of selve serve check outs etc giving a tip prompt. Who does that money go to? Depressing, yet not surprising, to have my bad expectations met.

24 hour notice for a 10 minute break, lmfao!! Shameful.

This is illegal.

A SMOCK! They are holding the last paycheck hostage over a SMOCK? THAT IS HELLA ILLEGAL.

That's on managers. It's why they make the "big bucks". Manager can't find coverage, manager does the job themselves.

Is that not defamation - publicly accusing someone of something that you know isn't true?

Good thing there's no HOA to fine them.

Tired of the Mickey Mouse type of management they've had to put up with.

Anyone with hypoglycemia or diabetes should consult a lawyer familiar with the Americans With Disabilities act.

A whole cupcake? Each?

Keep voting conservative and this is what happens.

Sadly technically legal. Just another reason tipping culture is major effed up.

"Below 75% or better"? That grammar is below 50%.

Gee he's a walking red flag right there. So was the conception voluntary or just a trap to keep her there?

This is terrifying 😨

It sucks but it's totally legal here in the states.

USA! I Europe we have good chairs for cashiers and any other employee that is able to sit during work.

Currently working at a food plant and we ABSOLUTELY let people take home our less than sellable product. Middle managers who do this are control freaks who suck to work with.

When my kids came to my dad's funeral, we gave them a certificate from the funeral parlor, so they could have the day off from their jobs.

"Hell yeah, let's drive through town, I'll hold your severed arm!"

Reminds me of a friend who got fired for calling out on New Years day.

YOU WILL BE HAPPY - OR ELSE!! 🤣

I haven't worked on my birthday since my 21st, I'll be 57 this year and making it a 4 day weekend.

What would anyone expect? You got to pay the brewery workers more so of course the customer has to pay more.

WTF?

And these are the employers that don't offer health insurance....

Bet that place has high turnover.

Seen this one before and yeah I would NEVER come back.

Well....you could always buy a water filter that will put the price at somewhere between 1/1000 and 1/10,000 of that planet destroying plastic bottle.

That could have been avoided with a "-"

wow. What shall it be, OP? A ferrari, or a lambo? Now that you are rich and all.

How desperate do you have to be to work at a place like this? But I guess that's the point.

I really have to wonder what is the corporate game plan for after they’ve driven their entire labor force into homelessness. I strongly suspect it’s a return to Company towns.

How greedy do you have to be and how little do you have to care about employee morale to penny pinch on f*****g cooler water.

Again, NOT "ridiculous". Doesn't say employees can't use the bathroom. And this is another one I've seen people talk about doing thinking they were pulling a fast one on their boss.

No family or hobby commitments allowed. No playing sports or doing community theatre, or anything that brings you joy allowed. Work is all. (S/ in case anyone is uncertain, lol)

This is an old joke that was never that funny decades ago. Stupid thing for an employer to post

Super illegal.

What about the ones that aren't actually paid to take this s**t? 🤣

Thank goodness for legal protect of workers.

The employee is most likely in crisis due to not being able to afford life.

Say you're a toxic bro culture without saying you're a toxic bro culture.

This does not seem to be a problem. The Loaves & Fishes Center is a non-profit organization with volunteers staffing as servers. They provide free meals for people in need of a meal. Asking for tips to go to another worthy non-profit seems pretty good.

6 months of mandatory OT and they send you breadsticks?

Just so you know, many, probably most, of the doctors out here find such policies inappropriate and sometimes dangerous. If you have an infectious routine illness (cold, flu, covid, etc..), being forced to go to a doctor only to get a note, exposes the doctor and all in our building to the virus solely because the boss doesn't beleive adults know when they are sick. It wastes resources, wastes your valuable time you could be recovering from whatever ailed you, ends up overwhelming urgent cares or ED's without good cause, and we generally feel insulted for you that an employer would treat you like this. I for one always make sure when I have to write such a note, to add in as much time off as the patient wants, quote labor laws threatening the employer if they don't submit to my medical advice, and occasionally add a statement about how the patient being required to get a note for this is medically unnecessary and employee should be exempted from all future Dr note requirements.

"Up to" - the vilest weasel words in job descriptions!

That was hard to make sense of.

if you're serious about hiring, you would post that info.

Er...what does this have to do with capitalism?

But how will dead people spend the higher tips?

OK but what font is the date in? That's what I'm stuck on.

Company Pension in UK isn't a "benefit" - its a legal requirement to provide one.

Somebody mis-spelled "starvation."
