It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

I very much want to fulfil this order

Damn, sounds like you better shut the fuck up and pack it yourself. anya-heh

[–] zifnab25@hexbear.net 92 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It's crazy because he's writing this about... a single employee?

Literally just do it yourself.

[–] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 80 points 2 years ago

In the same sentence he says that it's a slow time of the year, too. Sure, he probably has other work, but is it that much that he couldn't take an afternoon and square the big important order away?

Managers will do anything but actual work lmao.

"my own views are nuanced and involve me getting paid money"

[–] oktherebuddy@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

every single time I've ever brought up an ethical consideration at work it has been this

also always paired with some assurance that "leadership puts a lot of thought & careful consideration into these issues"

[–] asg101@hexbear.net 84 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The employee is fulfilling his obligations under the U.N. Convention against Genocide, namely not providing material assistance to genociders. Fuck the company for not cancelling the order in the first place.

[–] 420blazeit69@hexbear.net 32 points 2 years ago (2 children)

You are 100% right but I'm laughing my ass off at sriracha or whatever being "material assistance"

[–] OnlyTrueLiberal@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago

Dual-use items.

Could be an ingredient in skunk water

[–] happybadger@hexbear.net 75 points 2 years ago (3 children)

This guy is not American. All these answers to write him up and take him to HR probably doesn't work in OPs country. In gonna guess he is European and his employees are unionized. Going to HR probably isn't going to solve shit. The company will have to face the union which most companies would rather avoid.

You're better off talking to someone who knows the dynamics of the country you work in.

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 59 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They're middle managers, moreover middle managers who use reddit and sub to r/managers, they actually cannot find their butt with both hands

[–] happybadger@hexbear.net 34 points 2 years ago

The kind of person who will choke to death on an apple because they didn't know you're supposed to chew it.

I imagine the IDF's MREs being just falafel suspended in aspic, drizzled in mayonnaise

I went to this guy's account he's a strategy g*mer radlib from germany-cool, figures

Schindler, facing certain death for treason: I will take no part in this genocide

Small business tyrant, facing minor losses: Look I don't agree 100% with Israel but my Q1 bottom line!

[–] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 57 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Thinkin bout thos things that made this particular member of staff difficult. What did he mean by that I wonder? I'm going to bet it leans more towards "not willing to work for free" rather than "gets in drunk fistfights with other employees in the parking lot"

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 56 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I hope the employee is fuckin that guys wife

[–] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Better the ex wife. Losers like this doesn't deserve a wife.

"I texted him at 9 am on a Saturday to come in for unscheduled work and he sent me a very rude picture as a response"

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 53 points 2 years ago (3 children)

"Nuanced"

So he supports Israel but doesn't like the bad optics of cheering for dead Palestinians.

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

He doesn't give a fuck and only cares about making money but doesn't want to acknowledge that is his belief so it gets complicated.

He wants to hold bad opinions but also wants to think of himself as a good person, complicated.

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago

The idea of "nuance" has joined the ideas of "logic and reason" in the pantheon of concepts that have been gutted and flayed by reactionaries who now ritually parade around wearing the skin as a religious totem to confer a veneer of authority to their omnicidal depravity.

The IOF has more than enough “mayonnaise”

[–] dan42O 26 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Don’t they have a special brigade that extract their mayonnaise??

[–] WithoutFurtherBelay@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago

yeah, but they don't get it from eggs...

IDF soldiers get tubs of mayonnaise and state mandated gooning sessions and they still have the audacity to complain

DID THEY GET HIS NUANCE IN TIME???

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago

smuglord My views are very nuanced.

porky-happy I very much want to fulfil this order as it stonks-up

[–] Utter_Karate@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

So just fulfil the order and ship it somewhere else. Easy as that.
