I was a dollar tree store manager and took different route

"Sir! Sir, you have beautiful eyes don't risk that. Let it go"

    Plot twist: "Sir" was one of your staff. On-brand WTF for Dullard Tree, 100% 😅

    tHiS iS An AD!

    Never worked in a corporation? Imagine the marketing people approving a viral ad where violence is the central point and an employee cusses at a customer. Decision makers are typically cowards because they've risen to their level of incompetence, Peter Principled.

    This is a dude making a joke. Probably waiting for his pizza, laughing to himself about some road rage he encountered on the way in, thinking, "Be funny if..."

    Sometimes y'all too cynical to think things through.

    Ugh, no, thats not cynicism. If you constantly end up in biased results which are like "there's nothing to do", that's cynicism.

    To explain, this is a Kelly emote from Hexbear I stole. A shitty liberal cartoonist named ward sutton draws some interesting political cartoons, and have been meme'd quite a bit. See the "sickos" image in another comment below, same guy.

    These are franchise run stores, not corporate run stores. This sort of behavior exists across all fast food franchises.

    Every fast food place I've ever worked, the owners are trash. They dont work in their own stores except for extreme circumstances. They pay the lowest possible wages and churn through workers all so they can become millionaires. Their personalities were all so toxic that the actual workers prefer them not to be around.

    Just one a thousand reasons to only dine at locally owned businesses where the owner is literally working alongside happy staff everyday.

    At what point did I say it did?

    Franchising makes is all the worse because the corporate brand can claim ignorance.

    The problem occurs so often that it's clear that the brand is culpable at the societal level.. If the brands actually cared, this sort of shit would end their franchise. Since the legal system won't fix it, we need to step up and say, "no more" and boycott all franchises.

    If you explain bad behavior around here readers take it to mean you're defending that behavior.

    For example; I can usually explain why conservatives think and act the way they do but I don't because I'll just get beat up.

    Yep. Not my first experience with it here or elsewhere.

    I miss the internet that existed before smart phones because of the intellectual dilution they allowed.

    Kids today have no idea what it's like to be in an internet discussion that is majority phds and having to up your game to participate.

    The vast majority of commenters today would be dismissed as trolls; that bar has disappeared.

    I've been online before the internet existed

    What does this statement mean to you?

    Sounds like you were involved with the tail end of Usenet but I wasn't referring to Usenet.

    Incel didn't become what means today until sometime after 2000 when 4chan and Reddit arrived on the scene. That was the beginning of the end of the period I am talking about.

    You seem to be taking my comment as an attack or rebuttal on what you're saying by cherry picking a specific phrase. It's weird and reactionary.

    My comment is attempting to expand on what you're are saying by pointing out that those are examples of a problem that is systemic. I am expanding upon the layers involved.

    It's not just Little Caesar bad, it's also their thousand franchises. It's a massive problem to keep in check a business model that attracts rent seekers.

    At this point the assumption must be that all franchises are committing wage theft and exploiting child labor.

    As far as I'm concerned, the only acceptable response is to end the corporate entities that engage in this behavior and criminally charge everyone in the chain. This includes the overseer corporations, if they can control the pepperonis involved in the product they can sure as hell control the treatment of the humans involved.

    That's what I think about literally every ad I see, and yet real data and studies show that advertisements really are worth the billions invested into them each year. We're not immune.

    yeah but it's okay if it's funny enough

    this is weak for me, but I think enough people find it funny and I also think enough people recognize the ad. I hope so anyways

    I didn't think of it as an ad, just someone's story they made while on the toilet or something

    That's not possible. Einstein famously only worked for, and exclusively ate Quiznos.

    You need to check your facts. Do better.

    Speaking as someone who delivered a lot of pizza in a previous life, I can confirm that after being exposed to enough bullshit from customers plus the constant threat of getting jumped and robbed (even from idiots who claimed they were "just joking around"), us delivery drivers absolutely were ready to throw down at any instant, for just about any reason. The counter staff probably less so.

    Two dipshits arguing with each other in my lobby (i.e. not arguing with us) wouldn't be one of them, though. That's how you can tell this is fake. I'd have just tossed both of them out on their asses and ate whoever's pizza it was that just got canceled. Deliverator don't give a fuck what your problem is.

    I could write a book on the ways people found out after fucking around in the various restaurants I worked at. The statute of limitations has probably come up by now...

    This sounds like one of those "Arby's Boys" skits. Just replacing Arby's with Little Sleazers.
