You are not a person. You’re an inconvenience needed to deliver your wallet to people who believe that they own your money.
ThisIsYourLifeNow
...which is three times the profit we made last year. But all companies are shitting on their workers so our move doesn't look so bad
MaybeIllDisappear
Catviar and Scratch whiskey.
wellthatguyisnomore
I knew Wells Fargo is a cat!!
judithCat
I know it's wrong but I'm really hating the wealthy who tell us poor to work harder! Yes that's right I lack empathy for cunty fatsocats!
capitalistdecadence
That's why you gotta take a little off the top.
disposabledom
My company just laid off 10000 people and a week later sent out an email congratulating everyone on hitting 20 billion in profits so far
OrionJC
Chevron announced a couple days ago they're spending $75 billion on stock buybacks this year after record profits.
IdiotSavantTinker
And we also bought everyone a copy of Paul Aker's outdated book about "Lean manufacturing" that has glowing mention of >
IdiotSavantTinker
< companies who embraced "lean" but less mention of how those companies are now out of business.
IdiotSavantTinker
Seriously when they start pushing "lean" it's time to look for a new job, the place you're working for is about to fold.
PoopSammich
Our company is adding multiple locations. For Christmas they had an after hours party at a casino with no bonus and no raises either
PoopSammich
I didn't go to the party because I have a life outside work, so I got nothing
sagejosh0
Listen if we give you more then we have to give everyone more. If we do that then we can only afford cocaine parties once a week.
LittleCrabbyGameNight
I like the argument that merit increases are not equal to inflation. It is literally the way we may money to afford the consequences.
JustTryingToLiveLife
Kitties got a dish of caviare, that made me laugh
DrasticBastard
Also, layoffs
OmnesMundiLardum
Also, please train your replacement before you leave.
DrasticBastard
I’ve seen both people forced to train their replacements and people retire from key positions where they made sure the retiree was gone 1st.
PigsCanJump
Hmthat is a 1000$ bottle of scotch at the liquor store, can't imagine the bar.
kerms
There's an economic slowdown, what should we do, lower executive pay? No, let's lay off our 10 year veteran workers!
idiotsonfire
Just needs a little off the top!
idiotsonfire
Shovels and axes are easy to make though. So are guillotines.
lilmercury1981
Boss make dollar, I make dime, that's why I shit on company time.
RobJenkins
Jelly of the month club
michaelfire
Reaganomics 1980 flat wages for last 42 years yet alone bonuses
turbodog
I would think they could afford better than Macallan.
heartlessninja6
Where’s the guy explaining it’ll be wasted on the workers? Weird.
kiathedead
If we work harder next year maybe theyll pay us more :)
theGORTtakethaway
Hubs asked for raises for his employees to match inflation, higher ups laughed in his face. Company is making record profits, pays no taxes.
CorneliusTunt
My strategic scotch supply is also running low, sadly.
binkyboy876
When I came of age, I accidentally tricked my Grandpa into buying me a bottle of Macallan's 12 yr. Told him I'd started drinking Scotch /1
binkyboy876
/ and he asked me which kind. I answered truthfully: Cutty Sark, as it was all I could afford at the time, and he just glared at me. 2/
binkyboy876
/ for the uninformed, CS is basically the Scotch equivalent of Monarch Vodka or R&R Whiskey: serviceable, but low-quality (I.e., gross) /3
binkyboy876
/he bought me a bottle of Mac12 and I've been unable to drink any other Scotch since. Shame it's so Pricey. Rest in Peace, Grampa. /end
MyMorningWood
Our company actually finally did get raises. $1 across the board, all states.
idiotsonfire
So its a pay cut since inflation is now $3.80 a year.
MyMorningWood
Sure. It's better than nothing though.
gtotherizzle
I don't know how to not be a worker
gtotherizzle
Erbody hates on Boomers. Not understanding those of us in the middle did so much shit...to no avail
schroeder
You don't stop being a worker, you organize with fellow workers. Easier said than done, but we don't beat them alone.
gtotherizzle
I bought into the anti-union propaganda of..the 20th century unfortunately...fugging unfortunately
Greenwaxy
This is why it’s it wrong to steal from big companies. It’s just contraband of the class war to shoplift at Wally World.
poochyena
walmart regularly gives wages though, so stop acting like your anti-social behavior is some sort of brave act. Its not noble, its selfish.
idiotsonfire
Theft isn't antisocial, its illegal. Walmart gives its workers bare starvation wages, and zero benefits. You're simping for them.
Greenwaxy
Lol wages. Wal-Mart knowingly uses food stamps as a wage subsidy.
poochyena
thats the point of food stamps. Its the government's job to ensure people have the means to survive. Do you want walmart to have that power?
idiotsonfire
No, I want to mandate Wal-mart pay their fucking workers a $44/hr min wage tied to inflation like it fucking should have been.
idiotsonfire
I should not be expected to socialize the losses of the workers when fatfuck Alice Walton never-worked-a-goddamn-day-inheritor oligarch
Greenwaxy
Wal Mart knew it wasn’t paying its workers enough so it held classes for them on how to apply foodstamps. They shifted the cost of labor
Greenwaxy
onto the taxpayer.
alcamar
McAllen 25 is good stuff, but damn was it expensive in a bar.
Sticklebrickk
That's like a 600 dollar bottle.
Carlinium
So over priced though
MietGrynder
Macallen 25 is like ~2-3k € pr bottle where I live. I can afford Glenfiddich 21, give it a try?
xosuperfootlurker
"Macallan"
alcamar
Yep, my bad. Even right on the bottle and still screwed it up
Poopoopeepeevagina
Like 125$ per glass kind of expensive
sinte
One of the few benefits of being in the alcohol business. The amount of "rare" stuff that gets written off because of label damages.
TwiceK
Have you tried just buying barrels of it? Way cheaper per glass that way.
RandyRandalman
Mistake number 1: Setting foot in a bar. Number 2: ordering shit that's already expensive at the store.
alcamar
Cheaper to try a glass at a bar, than buy a bottle at the store
slightskew
McAllen 12 is my jam.
MrWobblyHead
That was the one that got me into whiskys. First one I actually liked.
PorneliusHubertII
My favorite as well. I olan to splurge mon a bottle of q8 soon.
aShogunNamedMarcus
Eh more of a Michter's 20 year man myself
smegmaspread
Bourbon is the best whisk(e)y. I’ll die on this hill from cirrhosis.
ImSorryImgurImNotAPerfectSpellerPleaseDontHateMeForever
Just go to scotchland best vacation place ever. So much scotch. & Actually gin but it's like heaven.
guinnessforjimthanks
My go to is Ardbeg Uigeadail. I like my peat!
Ignition101
+1 Ardbeg. My sister went to their distillery a couple years back and got me a 65% proof 50ml direct from the cask. Brutal.
Ignition101
50cl* I mean.. brutality lasted a few days
guinnessforjimthanks
I went to Islay for my birthday and visited Ardbeg & Laphroiag. Sadly I only walked past Lagavulin so I’ll need to go again!
UsuallyWelsh
They have a fantastic bar. Hit all three on a cycling trip, followed up by Bruichladdich. Was a good day.
BenderBendingRrrrrrodriguez
Expensive in the bottle too. I only buy 18, 25 would get me murdered.
alcamar
Yeah but huge markup at the bar. Given the funds I totally would, but 12 is my go to, 18 would be a special occasion
BenderBendingRrrrrrodriguez
The 15 is pretty great.
klaceo
I broke my Brother in law at his bachelor party when he said: sure, order whatever you want
AsidRayne1245
Dick move...
DarkRedCape
He didn’t care, his life was over!
klaceo
Divorced after 2yrs. So yeah, in more ways than one

DarkRedCape
I made a joke, but now I feel bad. I apologise if I caused any offence.
klaceo
Not at all. My brother is a turd. He cheated on a wonderful woman...
