Red giving shit to the kid who got told to stay at the meat slicer, but in reality it is this rebecca character that should be getting in shit. Red completely misunderstood the story.
yea i really dont get why red was going hard on him, i think he just wanted to make a random statement about minimum wage,....if i was in that situation and was told to stay to a specific station, im with you, even if i got 50$ an hour, im told to stay one place, ill stay at one place additionally...OP wasnt even the bad guy in that story, and Reds acting like OP was the Karen? i dont get it, though a lot of the time i personally find Red's commentary after the story annoying or just random
Absolutely disagree with you Mr. Narrator on the fast food story. The op was literally the definition of malicious compliance because they were told to stay on the slicer and only that so therefore they stayed with the slicer. Personally I would have done the same thing even if I was getting paid $50 an hour.

Brisket is literally beef. It's the only animal with brisket. That the OP says this isn't beef is one of the many reason why I avoid Arby's....plus the Reuben is literally made of corned beef...usually brisket...as not beef to an ex Arby's worker is really disconcerting. Then to not be needed, sit on a dirty fast food floor to wait between serving food to customers, is kind of sickening. WT actual F.
@@deantodd8103 The post seems like a powerful argument for Arby's to pay more. So their employees follow basic hyenic food handling practices and functional IQ level high enough to understand Arby's shaved BEEF, corned BEEF, and BEEF brisket all come from the same animal. Otherwise it seems like OP is kind of shouting to the world that they are well below average intelligence....but above a level deemed requiring a legal guardian.
Can’t for the life of me understand why you’re coming down on the kid in the slicer story. He tried to help the Karen of the story, despite knowing how she feels about him, and she shut him down telling him to stay on the slicer. He did exactly as he was told. He fulfilled the orders that required sliced beef promptly, and was only sitting and on his phone in between those orders. His story was the epitome of malicious compliance! Your reaction is very disappointing!

One technicality about what constitutes an assault. There doesn’t need to be physical contact, battery requires it. In the first story, with a finger inches from your face and yelling at you is assault. My reference to it is a required class I had to take as a Federal Regulatory Officer on the subject of Assault and Battery. As an example, a coworker had a business card shoved into his shirt pocket by an irate local official in front of police. They wanted to arrest the official (known as an a-h), but the coworker didn’t press charges. The official’s wife was given a civil penalty by us at an earlier date.
for the Arby's story, while I agree with your message about raising wages, its an L take to apply it to that situation when its a matter of "Fuck around Find out". Rebecca fucked around, and OP made her find out. Its not a matter of pay, its a matter of dignity and respect.
I think all fast food managers have a god complex, I worked at a Hardee's while going through chemo. The managers was okay until she found out I was doing chemo and she went crazy watching every single thing very closely, she screamed at me so loudly that people in the dinning room was able to hear that all of prep only takes three hours. She fired me before even the first payday because it took me five hours to do all of prep when she was able to do it in three in 2010.
Years ago, in my misspent youth, I had a job as an installer at a notoriously cheap employer. They were paying me $5 an hour, about a buck over the minimum wage. I had been promised a quarter an hour raise after 6 months but didn't get it. When I asked they complained about high overhead. They were paying me $40 a day with minimal benefits and I drove a fifteen year old, un-retired van. They billed $1280 a day plus materials for my time. I complained about not getting a $2 a day raise and they fired me. I told them thank you and a week later started working for $7.80 an hour with contracted raises of $3 over 3 years. Five years later I was making almost $15 an hour.
I will never understand why companies just throw away. Good employees and we'll just stand on the no. I'm right no matter how much money they lose to it. My last company had a 30% turnover rate and by October had spent almost $900000. Teaching new employees and yet they still kept screwing over old employees and let 1215 and 20 year. Employees walk straight out the door without changing any of the baseline things that were chasing them away. All the while that kept saying we can't do any of it. Because we need to cost save. Even though they may record profits again and losing the employees was costing them more
Maybe sitting on the floor, playing with your phone then handling food wasn’t the best move. It would have been better to clean the counter near the slicer until you could see your face would be better.
i mean sitting on the floor and playing on your phone isnt exactly unsanitary, but i get your point, your of the "there is always work to be doing" but OP likely knew what his jobs were and was TOLD to stay on the slicer
How Ironic: While you’re telling if companies pay better, they’ll get better workers . . . Then a “Burger King” commercial comes up. (lol). Here in Maine, all of those restaurants shut down rather than raise the wages for their employees . . .
Heh, I react poorly to the kind of grunt that think they can make themselves my boss by telling me what to do. I'll do a lot to show them that, no, I actually don't have to do what they say. And if the actual boss comes along and says I _do_ have to do what they say, that tells me I need to quit.

Talk about irony, at the end of the Arbys story what comes on screen, a commercial for...yep, Arby's! Go figure, lol. Hmmm, subliminal advertising maybe? All l know is, now l'm hungry, lol.
While there are slackers who will do the bare minimum regardless of pay scale, it's a fact of human nature that rewarding good behavior generally promotes more of that good behavior. So yes, raises and bonuses do tend to generate an incentive to employees to be more productive.
As to the first story that a hole got shut down hard. As to the second story op did what he wad told and left the idiot alone. As to the yhurd story the only thing that would have made it better is if that a hole got towed and had to pay the tow fees and a cab on top of the ticket. As to the last story stupidity and being cheap bit the company in the but big time.
I have to disagree with you on fastfood workers or any workers. You should always try your hardest to improve yourself no matter your age or pay. Guess you don't miss having a dollar menu anymore. Heck you can't even get a can of soda for less than two dollars anymore.
Yet in Europe fast food places somehow manage to hold prices down while paying their employees a living wage. Could be that European CEOs aren't as greedy as their American counterparts and only need one Laborghini in their garage
In my state, this year Minimum wage at 40 hours a week 52 weeks a year is now a $33,862.40 a year job. That is the starting wage and no one understands why Fastfood is not cheap anymore. it was $24.960 in 2019 $17,784 in 09 $10,545.60 in 99 $8,008 in 89 All this money for a job you can learn in a week or two.
A job that can be learned easily doesn't make it a job that can be WORKED easily. Fast food is one of the most hectic and stressful entry level jobs. Moreover, we all need to eat. Imagine if all the fast food workers, all the grocery store employees, and all the farmers and ranchers just disappeared and you and I had to grow and store and cook our own food. You'd soon realize just how essential those supposedly disposable and unskilled workers really are. On the other hand, if all the CEOs and executives disappeared, I suspect that the world would carry on just fine.
@@deantodd8103 It was always easy for me and I worked 16 hours a day at two of them in my 20s to 30s. BTW, did you notice that the minimum wage jumped only 9k between 89 and 09 but 7k from 09 to 19 and 9k from 19 to 24? That last jump was the voting of Millennials and Gen Z.
remember fast food is not a career for most soo you cannot expect a large pay to slice roast beef and flip burgers,,, all paying these idiots more money will do is make a roast beef sandwich to expensive for the consumer,so if you expect 40 50 a year go get a real job
As I posted above, we all need to eat. If these supposedly low-skilled and unimportant jobs like grocery store employees and fast food workers suddenly disappeared, you'd find out really quickly just how vital they are. Furthermore, fast food establishments in Europe somehow manage to pay their entry level employees a living wage and at the same time keep costs affordable. I suspect it has something to do with European CEOs and executives recognizing that their valued employees deserve the necessities of life before the execs purchase their second yacht.
honestly? yea, a lot of the opinions he gives are just "ha ha she got what she deserved! LOL ROFL!" which are just annoying and i skip through the 30 seconds of it normally....i dont mind a bit of feedback on the story (like the intro bit) but Red goes to far sometimes
The kid at the fast food place did the right thing. He took care of his job, did it well and followed instructions. Not on him to discipline others.
The 17-year-old at Arby's was 100% correct. The other employer wanted him to leave her alone. She brought the problem on herself.

He was making a point hey I have nothing to do since I have no orders for the slicer but if you let me help you

Yeah, the sitting on the floor aspect was where my sympathy for the OP faltered a bit. That just seems very unhygienic.

To answer your question about investing in the C suite, just look a Bud Lite and how much they lost with the hire.
Hello RedWheel hope you are well. Thanks for sharing. Please stay safe.🏴😁😷👍. Have a great day and a wonderful week ahead everyone

Wonderful story at the hibachi place. Makes me want to go.
As for that last story, there’s a reason people change jobs every five years, it’s easier to find a higher paying job than it is to get a raise.

"Watch the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves." - Don't go cheap on key employees, it never works.
Years ago, in my misspent youth, I had a job as an installer at a notoriously cheap employer. They were paying me $5 an hour, about a buck over the minimum wage. I had been promised a quarter an hour raise after 6 months but didn't get it. When I asked they complained about high overhead.

um, I hate to tell the OP who works at Arby's but brisket and Reuben are beef, maybe no sliced though.
Amazing stories as always
Should have took it a step farther and not use the slicer since you aren't 18

Brisket is beef.
That would be my family's new go to restaurant.
Still baffled by how you read this and came away with the OP following directions being the bad guy.

I never made 30k until I became a truck driver. Everything was full time. Farm hand and crew transportation.

Sitting on the. Floor ….with a phone …. In a food service area…. Hmmmmm
Use the force Vader. Use the force.
Force Choke
Redwheel youre wrong on your take on the arbys story op did the right thing his coworker got exactly what she asked for and the manager knew it

Raising wages does not ensure better workers, it just means there will be more money thrown at whoever is on the clock
While there are slackers who will do the bare minimum regardless of pay scale, it's a fact of human nature that rewarding good behavior generally promotes more of that good behavior. So yes, raises and bonuses do tend to generate an incentive to employees to be more productive.
