50 Infuriating Screenshots And Pics That Mock The “No One Wants To Work” Trend (New Pics)

Companies: "Let's do everything we possibly can to make things worse for our employees, as long as it gets us a miniscule improvement in profits." Employees: *Get fed up and quit* Companies: *Shocked Pikachu Face*

The reality, unfortunately:(

Is your management a bunch of power tripping a holes who micromanage their employees? "Well....um."

Yup. Top execs make hundreds of thousands (or even millions) of dollars in bonuses but we the worker bees are lucky if we get a 2% raise. It’s so discouraging.

Raises that match inflation aren't even getting ahead, just keeping pace

This ..

Because they own the media.. And its not easier., brainwashing takes a lot of effort

Because they are not mutually exclusive.

exactly

I disagree with both the premises of both questions. Neither premise is true.

Good for you! I'm happy for you both! :-) I requested a certain day off to get married. AND THEY DENIED IT! (Called in "sick" and came into work the next day). Crazy times.

Congratulations!

In Spain (you know, southern Mexico) we have 14 days of paíd holidays when we marry. Plus a complete month of holidays (I can choose 15 days and my boss choose the others 15), it's mandatory.

I used to work for a giant retailer in the US and I once asked for a day off 3 months in advance (we only got our schedules 2 weeks in advance) and it was denied. The day off request was for an exam in college. I asked my manager why he declined it and he said "because someone else might also ask for it off."

I’m sorry this happened, but I worked for them as well and totally believe this

Our company had a written rule that essentially was a "emergency leave" rule for an employees personal trauma event, e.g. death of a direct family member. Two of our employees had parental deaths within a few weeks of each other. HR came to me and attempted to block the paid leave, saying they hadn't approved it first. Quoted them chapter and verse of global and local HR rules. They backed off, both guys got paid leave that did NOT come out of their vacation leave. Managers need to know the HR policies as well. No clue about Pepsi, but HR also tried to cut an employee of the above company loose undergoing chemo. That failed as well. It also was in violation of HR policies.

WTF. Gosh this is so utterly heartbreaking

My mum died of cancer, trust me, if my wife asks to bring home Pepsi she just take whatever I got her or get it herself.

And this is why I don't touch Pepsi products

Slavery and exploitation never disappeared, they just have a legal form.

No one wants to make $2.33/hr and beg for tips? ( WI server minimum is $2.33/hr) I sure the heck didn’t and I still have nightmares that I am working at Red Lobster and not making rent, etc.

I tried it. It sounds good.

I sent an email to one company owner letting him know that I was increasing the rate for my services. He flipped out on me and told me how unprofessional I was in asking for a raise. I had to explain to him (yet again) that I was not his employee. Since I was self employed I was my Boss and he was my client. So, I'm not requesting a raise, I'm informing you that I am raising my rates - with 30 days warning, no less. But, if he felt my rates were unreasonable I could take my services elsewhere. (Professional Bookkeepers are always in demand, especially ones with 13 program certifications and membership in the AIPB).

I see a Robert Reich tweet, I upvote.

Ha ha!

I wish I got 100k... We count our salaries differently, but I counted and my better paying jobs were like 30k in your counting... And it was a full time job 5 days a week.

Our HR department sent out a "compensation update" email, and included the "average base salary" with sections about bonuses, company cars, sales bonuses and awards. Average base pay was almost double what support staff with a decade of experience was being paid. Talk about a major disconnect. Edit: Support staff didn't have company cars, didn't get any part of sales bonuses even if they helped make or keep the deal and awards were a local manager taking them out for lunch or a beer.

Well played.

If you are young boss is right. Cost of living doubles approximately every 24 years. In 48 years $100,000 will be like $25,000 today.

It does if you skip scanning some of the stuff you get..

At the self check I ask what the code is to get my employee discount for working as a cashier.

and then march on past the people who are supposed to check your receipts when you leave

We will never know, because people already used it to lower their own prises 😅

😂

When they make maintaining your existing employment less attractive than searching for a new job, guess what happens next?

Most of the jobs I've worked, it's on the managers to fill these gaps not on the staff.

This is nothing more or less than a bad manager. People tend to leave managers rather than leave companies. Of course some companies enable bad managers.

my not there yet what... Boss, this doesn't even make sense

YES! THIS! Most of us are only working because it beats dying of exposure in the streets.

When people talk about how AI and automation are going to make us all unemployed, I have to ask. Wasn't the whole purpose of technology to take our work from us, so we humans could have more time for leisure, art, and community? At some point, we're going to have to address the necessity for a Universal Basic Income.

so true. I always answer that I don´t "want", I "have to" work..
