Oh , those lil mfkers do... They refused to fix the AC in a callcenter. The offices and sever had AC. But they had 300 computers going without AC and i just walked out on my shift. Toldem i'll be back tomarrow.
Honestly there needs to be higher OSHA requirements when it comes to temperatures. No reason heat stroke should be a threat for people who work indoors. Outdoors is harder to manage but should still have protections.
I do air conditioning repair, in the south on the coast. Some of the spaces I work in get up to around 140 degrees or higher in fewer cases. Worked at this one company for a very short time because they would clock us out whenever we started our vans. Basically, we couldn't come out of 130 degrees after an hour or two and cool off without clocking out.
Hotter the better what my boss used to say I've never seen anything like it he would run 6 miles in the morning before work frame houses all day he drank milk in the morning and ate fruit and drank water all day he's 73 now and still laying plywood on the roof 😂😂I consider him the man
I work at fedex and this is literally how they treat us. if its 90 outside its 110 in the back of a 53 foot long trailer but the only part of the entire warehouse that has ac is HR and the guard shack. people literally pass out daily, people throwing up, etc. everyday.
At least it was box fans and not big fuck-off carpet rolls or some shit. Been in your shoes, and it's not fun. Had to quit due to all the shit in the trailers fucking my lungs up too.
Well maybe you want consider UPS in the future? Not because of the company, but because the Teamsters are about to close the biggest contract negotiation in history. A lot of the supplements, already approved by UPS address those exact issues. A/C in fleet trucks, heat shields for exhaust. Two fans in freight boxes or whatever the term is. Next step is enforcing them. Fans don't help if they don't work, but it's headed in the right direction
Welp, I guess I can't complain, only whine, when I get out of my truck to deliver a piece equipment. At least my water is air conditioned... I can't wait until ventilated seat come as stand alone options. I know corporate will use that as a recruiting tool; "Come work for us, our trucks air condition your balls between stops." Don't tell me that's not worth $1/hr.
At my old job you couldn't see through all the condensation on the windows in the supervisor office they had it so cold in there and it was 90+ degrees and 85% humidity on the production floor 🥵
No word of a lie, I worked retail hauling carts outside in 30c weather. Our boss literally told us that our cooler with our cold drinks wasn't allowed to be on the floor anymore, and that we would have to put it in the back. I literally looked at her and said "What the hell good is it going to do us in the back, which takes a good 2 minutes to get to, when we are out front dying of heat stroke? (as our normal weather is like 13-14c). A week later she outright told us we weren't allowed to have ice in our cooler anymore. I kept bringing in ice from home from my ice machine. If they fired me for having ice in the cooler, I would have taken them to the cleaners.
When the A/C went out at our factory, they called in techicans and sent someone to go get those cold water packs that go over your shoulders. But maybe thats also because our A/C runs for the whole production floor, including the Boss's office
Factory I worked at had 2 buildings. Each across the road from each other. The older building ran moukders, glue ups, CNC, planers. And rip saws. Newer building assembled what we made. They made $3 more per hour and had AC
😆 These videos are funny as hell, except for when you are working for companies that are actually like this. Toxic companies that treat their employees as numbers and profit eaters instead of realizing that without them they wouldn't even be in business.
So make them realize? Of course most employees are so beaten down that they like their submissive slave position. Shall I polish your boots massa? Need more cotton picked massa? And get mad at people for pointing out their subservient nature when they are boasting about commuting uphill twice a day.
Holy shit! I love your videos! It’s like you have a chip in my brain and can see what I see! I was in this exact same situation about a month ago except the person didn’t die, and it wasn’t our boss giving the presentation. It was an HR lady. She was saying (and wanting us to praise her) how we’re going to have AC in the break room for 20 minutes each day. But of course she has AC running full time in her office and a water dispenser machine, and her office is literally right around the corner to the soda machines.
I live in a hot state and I can tell you that a lot of employers don't give a fuck if you are sweating your asses off during the job. I refuse to work in a place where they make no attempts to cool the building down. They can't fucking have their offices be ice cold and the warehouse be hot and tell us about 'acclimation'.
I work in a lab (in central Europe). One of the main benefits of having labs is that we require a very specific consistent air quality for the entire building. Cleanliness, temperature, humidity... No matter what the temperature is outside. Half of Europe was freezing last winter in offices because governments "adjusted" requirements for temperatures at workplaces (now it can be much colder in winter and then much hotter in summer than it could have been before) because of war in Ukraine and fear of lack of fuel. It is fascinating to watch management suffer in their glasshouse office from our comfy building.
I mean, it's one thing when it's basically expected (steel mills, kitchens, factories, that sorta thing) but warehouses have no excuse. Neither does a vehicle, you can stick a goddamn fan somewhere in the back of a truck for little to nothing. Hell, I bring my own, battery-powered fan just to cut out the middleman.
At a previous job, we had a thermometer in the warehouse and it was regularly in the 110°s during the summer, and so humid that the floors were slippery. When we got hot, management would send us to finish our shift in the -10° cooler to “cool down”.
I work in a machine shop that is pretty big. Turns out, high humidity and high dew point makes the parts rust inside their packaging. Only shop I've ever worked in with factory floor AC - gets pretty damned cold sometimes too. Probably the last factory floor with AC I'll ever work on, but at least it's there when we need it.
AC also makes parts regular....... It's smart to keep the temperature the same no temperature based fluctuations. Same applies to maintenance temperature fluctuations causes parts to break
I work for a private company that really gives a damn about its people. The people in the office understand and have experienced what it's like for those of us in the outdoors and allow us to manage our needs so long as the job gets done. If the job can't be done safely, guess what? We can tackle it another day with a better plan or with more personnel/equipment. Some of the work conditions I hear through comments and these 'skits' make me genuinely worried about leaving my company if I had to.
I worked at a canning factory when I was young. Besides being hot everything was hot water and steam. That was pretty bad but when I trained on the pressure cookers and one went down I had to crawl inside and remove the jammed up cans while they were still boiling. I don't think confined space had been invented back then. Even replacing burnt out motors sitting on top of a pressure cooker is kind of hot. The first time I went down from heat is when I started bridge construction. Things change outside with the sun beating on you all day.
@@Raooka bossman's truck has aircon, probably automatically runs even when the truck is shut off and he's not in it. Truck he gives you probably won't have working aircon.
Company I work for is an Armored truck company, so no roll down windows or anything. 80% of our fleet had broken AC throughout the winter that never got repaired in the spring due to negligence. Summer rolls around and we're propping doors open to get some kind of relief and head honchos were trying to tell us we can't have the doors open for security purposes lmfao. Driving an Armored truck around with no AC for 8-13hrs a day in this heat, the damn things got to be like over 110 degrees easily in the cabs
At my last factory job, they'd make sure to come around at about 4pm with a single popsicle and a room temperature (it was hotter than outside temp because holes in the celing/walls plus running machinery plus no ac) bottle of water. They'd say here ya go, stay safe in the heat!
Why don’t they take their breaks in the manager’s office. The company did make the workers all managers so they have the right to go into the manager’s office and maybe just cool off for their lunch break
I recommend starting the job hunt at the first issue, especially if it's a big one. I had never walked off a job before but had one set up that would double my pay. The last one got an attitude with me and then screwed with my pay so... Oh well, bye! Why are ya mad? You just *loved* saying "If you don't like it, there's the door.". I took it. Bye!
Next episode. Daniel's family is suing for preventable death from heatstroke, so to be able to afford the lawyer to deny his family his death benefits, and thier wrongful death suite... we are gonna have to turn off the air-conditioner permanently
your lucky to get if for 5 min ... i build ac units and dont get ac at all but if really hot out we do get a small ice cream sandwich to eat while we keep working
Get a 3 liter camelbak, fill it with ice then add water until it's full if you're able to work while wearing it. Keeps you a little cool and the water is always cold since it's in ice. Top it off at the ice machine if yall have one later in the day.
The way I get our AC turned is I sit my sweaty butt down in their AC office on their chairs while they are out and sure enough when lunch time hits our breakroom AC is on. Also our office workers wear hoodies and one even wears a winter coat I see this when they have to venture out into the heat to use our bathroom because the janitor is cleaning theirs and they don't bother taking them off for the few mins on the shop floor.
Sad fact of a lot of factory work, it's too big an area to keep cool so companies just don't. As long as the products stored in the warehouse don't have to be cold the company don't care. Even if it's over 100 degree's inside (because the sun is amplified by the steel walls) it's hotter than outside they don't turn anything on.
They don't want to waste money on the AC, but they are using the AC in a useless way? At that point, just buy those pound ice bags for everyone. They'd be more useful.
If you don't want to spend money on A/C, you could cool the building without throwing electricity at the problem - Solar thermal adsorption chillers, earth tubes, solar desiccant dehumidifiers, radiant coolers, aluminum roof with cooling granules, or insulation in the ceiling. If you get really creative, a direct drive windmill compressor for a heat pump. Of course, management is allergic to capital expenses.
This type of experience is what lead me to despise manufacturing at only 15. Going to tech school I loved my trade until I did a work study in the real world. Machines shutting down because it’s too hot and the break room AC broken while the office workers are chilling in their area.
I actually had an employer tell us the new company vans didn’t come with AC even though the controls were right there on the dash. They told us that was a standard layout that came with all models whether they had AC or not. They’d just unplugged the control relay under the hood, took one of our more mechanically inclined guys about five minutes to figure that out. Then they said okay we could use the AC but if gas usage got too high we’d have to unplug them again. That was the last summer I worked there.
A dude at my company ODed randomly. We raised some money up from the workers to give to his long time girlfriend. Its unknown if she got the money, how much the owner gave, and if its more than what we could spare. The next day his job was posted on indeed. Never trust the boss and fight for your rights. If you have a skill, unionize.
Reminds me of when i had to work through my weekend over christmas, and the only compensation for that i got was a 15 minute smoke break, like thanks that really makes up for all that extra hard work...
Its 101 degrees inside the warehouse i work at rn. Instead of them simplify fixing the ac in here, they have room temperature water and a policy where if someone passes out, we cant go home unless we've already worked 4 hours. We can still leave early, but they won't pay us for it, so it kinda backs you into a corner
This happened where i work. Management wouldn't let us have an air conditioner in the shop. One of the workers was 76 and had asthma and was choking his way through every day. He started to pass out from the heat one day and was taken to the hospital. For the low low price of not telling osha we were given an air conditioner. Gotta love management
Sure would be terrible if a bunch squirrels acclimated into the bossman's A/C unit and it quit working. it would also be terrible if your friends that work in the nearby HVAC repair company were too busy to come out look at it for several days.
I had to quit a job a few years ago, I was running a printing press for glassware (like we did all the pint glasses for the World Cup and whatnot). I made it 6 months but come July I had to quit because there was a giant kiln the size of a large semi truck trailer about 10 feet behind us and all we got was a few small fans an no a/c... once it was regularly over 100°F I couldn't take it anymore
I can imagine an under cover boss episode going down at Marshalls work imagine the ceo boss saying I wanna see how these employees work in the warehouse and what they think of the company lol
When we moved into our current building, management was still nowhere near moved yet. We established one of the old offices as our breakroom. It was small, air-conditioned, and near our work area. Put a fridge and microwave in it too. Management came through and kicked us out. So now we have no break room OR a locker room/shower, and we're forced to eat on the shop floor or in the "break area" in shipping just outside that office.
Trust me I hate my job too, I have a food service director and a kitchen manager that doesn't communicate for damn and I show up on 4th of July acting like a regular day and they get pissed off because nothing got done during my shift but oh wait there the one's that wanted this big lunch but both of them showed up 30 minutes before I leave. Apparently I'm the asshole. I here you when you hate your job.
Like my first factory job. We had a quote "Chiller" unit. That could supposedly cool the mill off by a substantial amount. Was it ever used....not to my knowledge. Let the peasants suffer, all you want, but do not spend money.
This is the kind of place where the weirdest things happen, like someone threw a wrench into the managers ac...totally weird that it happened with no witnesses and the cameras are not real anyways. Sucks it keeps magically happening too.
I've had one major heat exhaustion episode (nearly heat stroke, I was 14), and I am not keen on having another. That water bottle goes everywhere with me when it hits 90 and doesn't see a day of rest until it drops below 60.
I have previous worked two jobs where something like this happened: one was at a restaurant, where a corporate rep told me that they could require me to stand in the hot Vegas sun for hours without a break if they wanted to. The other was a warehouse, where i got heat sickness before my manager called HQ to ask for permission to turn the swamp coolers in the building. Needless to say that i quit those establishments, not caring about getting rehired for their positions
I remember working at fast food and the kitchen during the summer git up to nearly 100° it was crazy my team and i had to fight management and upper management to get are AC fixed
"Guys, we don't want to put up with the hassle of one of you guys dying again, and frankly I don't think you want to either. With that being said, for your own safety, we advise that if you start seeing a bright light and hear the sounds of dead relatives beckoning, please take a break."
This shit is gold. How about the man has the helpers clean the bathrooms during break time. When it got hot in the warehouse I worked, the man offered big orange coolers of water filled with the mop sink hose.
Worked upholstery in a factory, every summer was like this. All they gave us was fans that just circulated the hot air around. All of management would sit in their air conditioned rooms with the hot side of the window units pointed out in the working area. The only relief we got working in that hot tin can was that they brought us popsicles “to stay cool”. Fuck National Office Furniture.
When the office complains about idle times on the work truck but mfers be in AC all day while we’re out here in 105 degree weather with a measly 30 minute lunch break.
Working for Sam’s club, had a coworker that, though we worked out in carts, had a heatstroke 3 times. Dude was 23 at that time only a year older than I. Only the following spring did they finally decided to get carts a fuckin fridge. It’s terrifying to think that simple a problem took so long to get rectified.
Meanwhile offices and cubes for hr got chill air 24/7 private fridge with anything you want and all fu cking buffe for fruits and sweats. Fair my assssss.
Worked for a pipe welding warehouse after college while i looked for work. Break room was nice and cool all day long! Weird little convenience though, the supervisor and floor managers offices were right off the break room and im pretty sure if they could figure out a way to cool their offices and not where we eat lunch, their asses would have done it.
I had a meeting today where nobody mentioned anything important bugging them. Total waste of 40 mins with 8 people. Made today even harder to work, and nothing will get done with the little bit some people mentioned, like extra worthless tools we don't need...I told them to get us more help and machines, cause we just had 3 people quit, and we're already short handed...the bosses didn't even bother with my question, they went straight into the dumb crap they usually want to want talk about...more pizza parties. Everyone bitched afterwards.
This actually happened to us at work. We had been complaining about how hot it was getting in our manufacturing plant, and no one listened until a Korean man (I'll let you guess the origin of the company) fell out from a heat stroke. Then, suddenly, new A/C units were being built on that end of the shop.
I worked for the nation's largest landscape company- they disconnected all the air conditioning in the trucks. When they got brand new trucks they just turned it off using the onboard computer. They couldn't figure out why even H2B workers didn't want to work there...
how much you want to bet the office people have their own breakroom, with A/C that runs all day and night, and a fridge with free ice cold cokes...
How dare you question the office Kings and Queens peasant! On your knees! Off with his head!
You know they do.
100% and as maintenance those guys call every 5mins when it's not working.
Oh , those lil mfkers do... They refused to fix the AC in a callcenter. The offices and sever had AC. But they had 300 computers going without AC and i just walked out on my shift. Toldem i'll be back tomarrow.
Ok guess no fake tree in the corner or tv for weather channel? + Microwave?
O NVM I see the micros. I like the lockers too.
Honestly there needs to be higher OSHA requirements when it comes to temperatures. No reason heat stroke should be a threat for people who work indoors. Outdoors is harder to manage but should still have protections.
I agree. And yet Texas just blocked any municipality from passing laws requiring a cooling break. And other states are thinking of copying them.
If you regulate one then both have to be regulated
There should be some kind of legally mandated pay increase in extreme weather conditions

I still remember having to unload a trailer by myself during the summer, the fan on my door not working. The kicker? Trailer loaded up with box fans.
At least it was box fans and not big fuck-off carpet rolls or some shit.

And have all the filthy peasants dirty up the Kings and Queens breakroom? As if.
They can all pitch their process improvement ideas in the manager's office while they eat lunch. Such dedication! Such efficiency!
Thank you for making me appreciate my shitty job, at least we have AC and fans
I would've quit a long time ago. If needed, I can deliver food with UberEATS or something to keep me afloat until I find something better.

We're not watching comedy sketches, we're watching the slow progression of a crime of passion. Committed by a man who just can't take it anymore.
Sad fact of a lot of factory work, it's too big an area to keep cool so companies just don't. As long as the products stored in the warehouse don't have to be cold the company don't care. Even if it's over 100 degree's inside (because the sun is amplified by the steel walls) it's hotter than outside they don't turn anything on.
My spiteful ass would break his AC, tell him to acclimate to the heat.
They don't want to waste money on the AC, but they are using the AC in a useless way?
At that point, just buy those pound ice bags for everyone. They'd be more useful.
If you don't want to spend money on A/C, you could cool the building without throwing electricity at the problem - Solar thermal adsorption chillers, earth tubes, solar desiccant dehumidifiers, radiant coolers, aluminum roof with cooling granules, or insulation in the ceiling. If you get really creative, a direct drive windmill compressor for a heat pump.
Of course, management is allergic to capital expenses.
Man, I swear I saw you in Home Depot the other day. I live in north GA too.
"Were not fucking gold fish." Best line today.
my dad and grandma talked like this manager character a lot
This type of experience is what lead me to despise manufacturing at only 15. Going to tech school I loved my trade until I did a work study in the real world. Machines shutting down because it’s too hot and the break room AC broken while the office workers are chilling in their area.
I actually had an employer tell us the new company vans didn’t come with AC even though the controls were right there on the dash. They told us that was a standard layout that came with all models whether they had AC or not. They’d just unplugged the control relay under the hood, took one of our more mechanically inclined guys about five minutes to figure that out. Then they said okay we could use the AC but if gas usage got too high we’d have to unplug them again. That was the last summer I worked there.
you old employer broke the law with the A/C on commercial vehicles the a/c system must be working.
@@crazeguy26 very likely, but it was like 20 years ago and was just one more example of how cheap they were. It was one of the many reasons I left.
A dude at my company ODed randomly. We raised some money up from the workers to give to his long time girlfriend.
Its unknown if she got the money, how much the owner gave, and if its more than what we could spare.
The next day his job was posted on indeed.
Never trust the boss and fight for your rights. If you have a skill, unionize.
Reminds me of when i had to work through my weekend over christmas, and the only compensation for that i got was a 15 minute smoke break, like thanks that really makes up for all that extra hard work...
dawg, there's nothing like working in a 120° shop over a 350° press and seeing the managers come out of their office in jackets 🤣
Is this video about an Amazon Warehouse?
Eerily similar.
we have AC at ours
Its 101 degrees inside the warehouse i work at rn. Instead of them simplify fixing the ac in here, they have room temperature water and a policy where if someone passes out, we cant go home unless we've already worked 4 hours. We can still leave early, but they won't pay us for it, so it kinda backs you into a corner
a heat stroke is a medial emergence is your body overheating and pulling the plug because it can't cool down.
Yeah the office and lab have ac. We have fans.......yay
I honestly can’t watch these anymore they are so depressing.
This is the Oilfield!!
Is this a bad thing? If the factory floor can’t be air conditioned what’s wrong with an air conditioned break room?
...and that's how bubba Jim got 30 years in state pen.
This happened where i work. Management wouldn't let us have an air conditioner in the shop. One of the workers was 76 and had asthma and was choking his way through every day. He started to pass out from the heat one day and was taken to the hospital. For the low low price of not telling osha we were given an air conditioner. Gotta love management
Sure would be terrible if a bunch squirrels acclimated into the bossman's A/C unit and it quit working. it would also be terrible if your friends that work in the nearby HVAC repair company were too busy to come out look at it for several days.
So accurate, this is how it is these days. Pass out from exhaustion and you get in trouble at my last job.
"This job sucks, I fucking hate it here". Said this at my last job because it was so damn close to how your videos are.
I had to quit a job a few years ago, I was running a printing press for glassware (like we did all the pint glasses for the World Cup and whatnot). I made it 6 months but come July I had to quit because there was a giant kiln the size of a large semi truck trailer about 10 feet behind us and all we got was a few small fans an no a/c... once it was regularly over 100°F I couldn't take it anymore
So generous!
That is like the nicest breakroom i have ever seen
I can imagine an under cover boss episode going down at Marshalls work imagine the ceo boss saying I wanna see how these employees work in the warehouse and what they think of the company lol
love the skit...still get heated listening to the toxic manager speak, I've dealt with each one in some form or fashion
When we moved into our current building, management was still nowhere near moved yet. We established one of the old offices as our breakroom. It was small, air-conditioned, and near our work area. Put a fridge and microwave in it too.
Management came through and kicked us out. So now we have no break room OR a locker room/shower, and we're forced to eat on the shop floor or in the "break area" in shipping just outside that office.
Trust me I hate my job too, I have a food service director and a kitchen manager that doesn't communicate for damn and I show up on 4th of July acting like a regular day and they get pissed off because nothing got done during my shift but oh wait there the one's that wanted this big lunch but both of them showed up 30 minutes before I leave. Apparently I'm the asshole. I here you when you hate your job.
Can you make a video where the Bossman dies and everybody's happy?
Nah. Because another one will take over and will have the same attitude from before.
and then another boss comes to replace him who is worse. because that's how life works.
Like my first factory job. We had a quote "Chiller" unit. That could supposedly cool the mill off by a substantial amount. Was it ever used....not to my knowledge. Let the peasants suffer, all you want, but do not spend money.
This is the kind of place where the weirdest things happen, like someone threw a wrench into the managers ac...totally weird that it happened with no witnesses and the cameras are not real anyways. Sucks it keeps magically happening too.
I've had one major heat exhaustion episode (nearly heat stroke, I was 14), and I am not keen on having another. That water bottle goes everywhere with me when it hits 90 and doesn't see a day of rest until it drops below 60.
Silent feedback! Hilarious
you do too good of a job. i hate the boss so much.
I have previous worked two jobs where something like this happened: one was at a restaurant, where a corporate rep told me that they could require me to stand in the hot Vegas sun for hours without a break if they wanted to. The other was a warehouse, where i got heat sickness before my manager called HQ to ask for permission to turn the swamp coolers in the building. Needless to say that i quit those establishments, not caring about getting rehired for their positions
It's not even the middle of July! It hasn't been a week in!
I remember working at fast food and the kitchen during the summer git up to nearly 100° it was crazy my team and i had to fight management and upper management to get are AC fixed
I work in a refrigerated area, no risk of heat stroke there (except when when we go on break).
"Guys, we don't want to put up with the hassle of one of you guys dying again, and frankly I don't think you want to either. With that being said, for your own safety, we advise that if you start seeing a bright light and hear the sounds of dead relatives beckoning, please take a break."
I bet its nice and cool up there in management's ivory tower😂
This shit is gold. How about the man has the helpers clean the bathrooms during break time. When it got hot in the warehouse I worked, the man offered big orange coolers of water filled with the mop sink hose.
Again this is so true 😂😂
Give the boss some BC powder for that headache.
Worked upholstery in a factory, every summer was like this. All they gave us was fans that just circulated the hot air around. All of management would sit in their air conditioned rooms with the hot side of the window units pointed out in the working area. The only relief we got working in that hot tin can was that they brought us popsicles “to stay cool”. Fuck National Office Furniture.
ive had heatstroke at work a couple times
"We don't want to spend the money running it".
Sounds just like other places I know, Walmart, Kohl's, most grocery stores...
had 2 of those... once cutting down a tree and one from asphalt work
I live in Phoenix Arizona. Hot went out the window. AC at work is down and working in the kitchen
i just run more laps around the warehouse on the forklift to cool off. As long as i just use my 2 tanks a week.
When the office complains about idle times on the work truck but mfers be in AC all day while we’re out here in 105 degree weather with a measly 30 minute lunch break.
Working for Sam’s club, had a coworker that, though we worked out in carts, had a heatstroke 3 times. Dude was 23 at that time only a year older than I. Only the following spring did they finally decided to get carts a fuckin fridge. It’s terrifying to think that simple a problem took so long to get rectified.
Hope the bathrooms have AC.
Meanwhile offices and cubes for hr got chill air 24/7 private fridge with anything you want and all fu cking buffe for fruits and sweats. Fair my assssss.
Yeah I definitely don’t miss working in warehouses that’s for sure
Worked for a pipe welding warehouse after college while i looked for work. Break room was nice and cool all day long!
Weird little convenience though, the supervisor and floor managers offices were right off the break room and im pretty sure if they could figure out a way to cool their offices and not where we eat lunch, their asses would have done it.
Did he drink too much on the lake? Is he hungover?
I now work in a hotel. And I still sweat my azz off. Wierd. I don't miss doing hvac
Id be in jail if this was the guy in charge
Companies would rather die than spend a red cent on their employees
Employees in the shop. You know the expendables. Vs the office workers that get ac and snacks.
I had a meeting today where nobody mentioned anything important bugging them. Total waste of 40 mins with 8 people. Made today even harder to work, and nothing will get done with the little bit some people mentioned, like extra worthless tools we don't need...I told them to get us more help and machines, cause we just had 3 people quit, and we're already short handed...the bosses didn't even bother with my question, they went straight into the dumb crap they usually want to want talk about...more pizza parties. Everyone bitched afterwards.
This actually happened to us at work. We had been complaining about how hot it was getting in our manufacturing plant, and no one listened until a Korean man (I'll let you guess the origin of the company) fell out from a heat stroke. Then, suddenly, new A/C units were being built on that end of the shop.
"How to get your car tires slashed: a manual".
I was actually thinking, there was a 2nd point and it was that they would offset the cost of the AC by deducting some money from each employees wages.
I walk in on managers in the office just laughing sitting around vaping 😂 my job a joke bc none of that is cool for us to do
Actually worked fast food where people would get pneumonia from going in and out of the freezer too often.
"You guys!" Lol
I worked for the nation's largest landscape company- they disconnected all the air conditioning in the trucks. When they got brand new trucks they just turned it off using the onboard computer.
They couldn't figure out why even H2B workers didn't want to work there...
