    “You were each TOTALLY going to get an extra $.67 a month, if not for fucking Darren over here who forgot to thank me for his employment this morning in the daily thank you ceremony. You guys don’t get it… you think this is easy? Anyways I’m also doubling all your rents.”

    “Disregard that last part, forgot you weren’t my ungrateful tenants, because of course I’m also a landlord.”

        1. Oh sorry, where did my comment mention a fast food manager?
        2. What is your general purpose in life?

          Considering that the original post is most likely taken from a fast food restaurant, the context of your post would imply that you’re speaking about one.

          Idk, I guess to be here for a while, try to be happy, and then die? Pretty much everyone’s general purpose.

            “Most likely” = I just decide that my personal conclusions are that of the rest of the world in all scenarios

            The nicest restaurants in the world are typically staffed by many degenerate addicts (source: worked fine dining for a decade) AND those same restaurants are typically owned by individual, independent people with money and nothing else valuable to contribute to society. They often own rental as wealthy parasites tend to do.

            Try to center the world outside of yourself, you might learn a few new things… I mean, you’ll most likely learn a few things.

      Oh but they would if they could! I can see it now, a national restaurant chain that only does mixed zoning restaurants. Apartments are staff only and cheaper than market. But your boss is also your landlord. Now when workers “churn” you can have them evicted and taken to court for debt too!

        And if you bring in workers from other countries, you can hold their work visas in the balance if they are found to ever be outside of either the restaurant or the employee housing!

        And saddest of all, I worked at a restaurant where the owner actually did this… He was never directly held accountable for what amounted to indentured slavery essentially, but thankfully he was forced to sell eventually due to a backlog of unpaid labor disputes and sexual harassment lawsuits.
