Oligopolies baby! Ask any Canadian.

Its disgusting, really. It‘s also part of our daily lives. Having a great idea or great skills isnt enough, unless they are part of the dark triad. People with those skills will always eat your lunch - for free.

We need to pathologize these behaviors instead of normalizing them.

What bullshit is that? Not giving you a discount just because you already buy from them?

Next week: they're back

Look, if it were up to me I'd love to help you out. I have to think of this way though... My wife and kids would be awfully sore at me if I came home unemployed for breaking company policy like that.

Always crosses my mind when I see a viral vid of some shithead berating service workers. “I’m never coming back!”

That shit isn’t the cutting threat you think it is in this moment.

Yet they say: We'Re LiKe FaMiLy

That is why I hope that people start unionising more and start switching jobs more regularly. The increased turnover should mean that companies try to retain employees for the sake of projects not being constantly delayed. I also hope that this also leads to more people starting their own businesses and competing with their former employers both in employing terms (by having better work conditions) and eventually consumer loyalty.

Yeah, my boss expects that. He's been at the same company for almost 20 years, since the department was created.

He also gave me a 3% raise this year. It's nice to get cost of living, but why would I try to invest in a workplace where I know I'll be able to make more and more elsewhere every year.
