The CEO story is even crazier when you find out she cut ALL employee bonuses but took a $6.4 million bonus herself.
It was only like 1.2 million or something but yeah complete dogshit just vile behavior
@@sploshbook5349t was only 1.2 in cash. She got a total of 6.4 accounting for stock options and other bonus compensation. She's a POS for sure.
Still. If you give 8000 people a hundred dollars, that's 800K total. So her bonus wouldn't count for much if it got diluted amongst everyone there.
@@SnorrioK Still extremely hypocritical. You can't expect people to care and try harder if you're running that double standard
@@SnorrioK why the fuck are you defending a ceo of any kind
imagine if we all stopped watching till he wore a clown outfit
😂
u evil son of a b im in
I’m in
Imagine if we all continue to stop watching even after he wore a clown outfit
I’m down. Let’s start a Union
it annoys me to no end when the older generations complain that "customer service isn't what it used to be" yeah people have stopped busting their gut for a business that treats them terribly,
The older generation also had pensions to encourage then to work longer with the company
And we get paid less
lol im going to laugh when we're all old and cant wipe our own asses, and I and the other level-headed people from our generation will be able to afford to pay someone to take care of us..
@@GodIsInTheTvthe world will be destroyed by the time that happens
I donno if he’s explained that but hearing Ludwig casually drop being sexually harassed gave me whiplash. If he’s able to joke about it I assume he’s fine but that’s fucked up man
It's how it is for lots of people who went through it, including me. Eventually it's like you get to a point where you're like "Yeah it happened to me, but I'm not any lesser for it" and you're able to begin the process to moving on and being able to joke about it.
Still though, it's fucking awful how people in positions of power will use their power to hurt those who can't fight back, and how so few of the time they actually get what's coming to them.
very bold for a ceo to yell at employees depending on a bonus, not to focus on the bonus, from her cushy office/house
it also is hilarious that she starts by saying "good question..." only to destroy the person who asked the question
I love arguing with my shitty boss. she legit makes the employees sell expired meats and cheeses. it's fucking nuts!!
@@chamomileofficial2073 Where you live? Could be a big case……
@@e_knees8816 lmao it won’t be. ghetto corporate jobs get away with everything
@@e_knees8816 there’s so much shit that they do illegal it’s insane. the supervisors don’t give a fuck what you have to say about everything that’s bad in your department, they cut my hours, they don’t do anything to anyone that has sexually harassed you or made you feel uncomfortable, they make up rules and change shit almost every week.
this feels like a subtle way to hint at slime to stop calling him pussy boy
lmao love your username
its the same
Thank you for this comment😂😂
the new Agenda. Don't forget to send out the memo!
Slime will stop calling Lud a pussy boy when Lud stops being a pussy boy XD
The thing that irritates me the most about the CEO you spoke about specifically, is that you can tell they intended for that to be motivational. It was just so disheartening to see that -that- is supposed to be motivational, but instead is just cruel and mocking.
That’s how I took it as well. It was an attempt to be motivating but given the circumstances and what the question was about just made it sound worse.
@@TotalxTroll25k true thankful I can find two comments that understand what this was and the attempt of speech she is going for I really don't think most people understand persuasive speech, motivational, informative. informative wouldve been the better go here she couldve explained and informed why no bonuses and ways to achieve them. Like this isnt as bad as the commentors are making it out to be like this shark is some evil corrupt women whos praying on the workers. the team just made the wrong choice and will hopefully learn form it.
@@Joee_Kool she was definitely hypocritical and preying on the workers though. The company couldn't afford better pay or bonuses for the workers but the CEO gets paid 5 mil in a year, some of that being a bonus? The only reason this is news is bc of bad optics i'll agree there, but you cannot make the argument that this ceo doesn't rely on scalping her workers to get her paycheck. The pay she got shows she's a corrupt ceo who doesn't really give a fuck about her workers
@@Joee_Kool nah she still is bad. her disconnection from reality about why it is so inappropriate to be motivational in the moment makes it worse tbh. The fact it was supposed to be motivating and completely missed the mark is an extra layer of insult.
It started decently motivational until she started wagging her finger and ranting about bonuses
Dude, if you're nervous about being a good boss, you're a good boss. Bad bosses always think they're the best at what they do.
Farmworkers are underrated, the way they get treated by bosses is nuts, some people also mock them for working at a farm that takes lots of time & effort
Same with mechanic and body shops! Those guys bleed hate into everything they do. Not only that, but just because they own the shop they think they own you. Worked at a body shop and was chewed out for half an hour for using the bosses "private bathroom" - on my first day. I will never understand why these people love to go on power trips so often.
Yea, I worked on a mass egg farm as my first job, It smelled like death every day, it was nasty, all I did was shovel manure with shovels I bought because "boss dosn't want to buy new tools" it was bad, the buildings were structurely rotten too,one and more than a half years later I quit,
Thank you for having a relevant comment
Ludwig too. We have the same recommended I swear
They can just get another job. Wtf is wrong with you people.
A couple jobs ago, I had a boss (and multiple managers) that would openly harass and belittle employees in front of customers. They also illegally paid employees below the minimum wage. Long story short, a few employees, myself included, grouped together and sued the store management for disorderly conduct and hate speech. Almost all of the management was either fired or transferred, and we won the court case. I got back all of the money that they were supposed to pay me, and I quit immediately after. Moral of the story, I learned a good lesson then and there. I’m much more careful nowadays with where I work and who I have as management
I've gotta know - what sort of job was it? I'm guessing it's a chain restaurant; how far off am I?
Sheeesh glad that it all worked out! That sounds so stressful
You can’t sue someone for hate speech. This story is bull.
@@akivaweil5066 you can sue them for verbal abuse and emotional distress depending on the state, and for sure sueable for underpaying you
@@akivaweil5066 hostile work environment etc
That "lead the company" corrected by Ludwig to "bleed for the company" is 100% accurate. If you don't get your bonuses you are not getting a lot of money in which a lot of peoples lives depends in lower half wager jobs.
In many European countries, minimum wage is a lot higher, bonuses are more regulated and a smaller percentage of wages. In my country, unions and collective agreements (I hope google translated this right) are pretty strong too. I think that system is mich better than one where you depend on bonuses which the CEO can just decide to cut. A bonus should be a bonus, not a shakier part of your salary.
"cus he sexually harassed me" my jaw dropped. i am so sorry you had to experience that
Happens a lot at minimum wage jobs. They know you don't have the money to fight them in court. Lots of horror stories down at this level :/
Wish I knew how to get off this level!
Seems like there are labor lawyers who only charge you if they win your case because of that exact reason. Something to consider looking into, for anyone who may have a potential work lawsuit.
Yup, and this is why unions are necessary.
@@frenchtantan A lot of unions don’t do shit my friend

@@dantaylor8197 Unions, when properly implemented, work great at improving worker conditions.

The amount of money she makes, the smart play would be to cut her own bonus/salary and split that money up between the employees. I doubt she'd miss it that much
That would require her to drop her pride and assumption that she deserves that money more than them. Sadly, that will never happen. People in higher positions feel extremely entitled to their money and position even if they don't do a lot of work or got the position from nepotism.
Hello My Guy! Fancy seeing you here!
True
You're missing the part where capitalism rewards insane greed
Yeah, here in America, it’s a lot worse. Everyone is greedy, and the people putting in the hard work get paid too little, while the rich trust fund babies get all the money they could ever want.

The only semblance of hope we can have is that it doesn't sound like it was said with hatred.
@@PaulFilmer ...in all seriousness, i think the language overrides the intent here. you can't exactly call someone the N word in a kind and reassuring manner.
@@PaulFilmer the n word is a word that is inherently hateful. it’s literally used to communicate that you believe the person you’re talking to is below you. that’s why it’s a slur
@@PaulFilmer “we don’t got no Nwords here” sounds very hateful to me. What the actual fuck.
My old boss had a serious issue. She hated all male employees and then she focused in on me cause I refused to work Sundays due to religious differences. She talked to you like you were a child, openly talked about raising the prices of an industry that already overinflates prices and then started to shout at me when I said she hadn’t paid me properly for 2 months (thankfully I still lived at home at the time) and therefore I wasn’t a productive member of the team. I then quit so she tried to delete my records (which are classed as medical)
There are only 2 guys on my current team, myself and the assistant manger. I am pretty certain that one of the main supervisors and another co-worker just hate men but since one of us is the 2nd top in the store they turn their entire attention to me. I really don't have any issues with customers being sucky or the day being crazy busy, but when those 2 walk in the door is when I genuinely think about quitting on the spot.
@@kempolar9768 Honestly, you should try looking into getting another job then quit your current one without notice. Being in a toxic work environment is the absolute worst thing imo.
@@dragonstorm7861 oh I absolutely agree that I should check out some other places just to see if I can get something better, but the coworker I mentioned is actually leaving and going to a different country next month so I think I'm gonna try and hold out until then. See if things get better with her gone.
I've had a few nightmare bosses before. Nothing kills work ethic and motivation faster than a manager who constantly degrades and neglects their employees.
Wow lol she went from talking about being kind to ripping their throats out 😂 What a POS boss
My fellow employees lost there job...

I have worked in some terrible environments with bosses that expected someone who was 8 months pregnant to not only work up until they had the baby but wouldn’t let them sit down
99% sure preventing anyone from sitting down at work is illegal
McDonalds does this
That's so sad. I wish everyone was able to sit during shifts
To not let a pregnant woman at 8 months sit down...
@@chillarypuff worst thing i was ever told was that a manager ‘wished’ he could let me pull up a chair. my entire job was that i just had to stand at the front of the store packing n tagging orders and greeting people. maybe he really meant it but that day i was having awful period cramps and could barely stand and he knew that because i *told* him, and i probably would’ve been able to finish my shift if he’d just let me sit.
CEOs should be able to be voted off at any time by their lowest paid employees like a game show
Literally how it should be. Workplaces should be democratic and that’s why unions are dope
@@sploshbook5349 wouldn't change shit probably lol

@@daniellima4391 work place democracy is why you aren't working 6 12s you dope. It did work, it does work.
@@daniellima4391 Maybe, but I doubt it. If there was true democracy in the workplace and workers had a say in how leadership operated I think actions of employers would fundamentally change. Certainly shit like this wouldn’t happen because they would just get ousted. If workers had a say in putting more of the value they produce into their own pockets I think they would do it. It certainly wouldn’t be worse or as bad as how it is now.
I had a boss talk behind my back to other employees saying “she didn’t have covid she’s just lazy and wanted 2 weeks off”. For the record I was part time and could take 2 weeks off whenever I wanted. She also said all this to my coworkers whom were about 16 and she was about 57. Oh and also I did have covid, and after I quit that job she had to hire 3 more girls to take over my responsibilities.
I worked as a Manager at a H&R Block recently and they also have incredibly strict, unrealistic expectations. Even when they don't hire enough people. They scheduled meetings with me and told me I needed to hit these figures. I eventually brought out a notepad and did the math to explain to them how it was literally impossible to hit that number in the amount of time, and she still insisted if I work harder that I could do it. Absolute delusion.
I felt so bad for the tax Advisors this year; especially with the transfer to doing it yourself digitally, no way in fuck are you gonna pump 26 clients in fucking 8 hours. You would be pushing it doing more than 12
Last year I got let go from a job cuz I was trained in 3 different departments even though employees are typically only supposed to work in one. Sometimes I was the ONLY one in two of those departments. I asked to either get paid more or only work in the department I was hired for because I was doing the job of 3 people and my boss was just like "Well actually it might be better if we just cut ties here since it's clearly not working out🤷" it's actually bullshit how much companies can get away with fucking you over
Sound like the company I was working for, they had me taking call, review medical claim, being a team lead and QA when I ask for the manager to increase my paid they just said "oh we did last year for 1 dollar" that was BS because that dollar was paid for performance so if they got you on anything on the last 2 weeks it was cut from you anways so musy people never got it and they had to increae it so people would stay because everyone was leaving, at the end they just increase my work flow to a point it was not humanly possible so I just quit, worst company ever
@Ulize I think you're not eligible if you quit but I will have to check into that
@@LivretBC correct. Was referring to the guy in the original comment since he stated he was fired
That second guy just let it rip casually that’s wild
he deadass said "I don't understand why he'd use that word, we don't hire n slurs. i'm just as baffled as you"
That's generally how it is in the south. It's wide out in the open just like that. Dave Chappelle's skit on this was real.
As a person living in a midwestern farm town, that guy is one of many. I don’t know how many times I’ve sat and had to literally argue with older people who I worked for, asking them to stop making racial slurs
Glad u covered this I was scared it would go unnoticed but man does this help the coverage a lot
One of the best bosses has got to be a previous president of Nintendo, Satoru Iwata, who apparently cut his own pay when the Wii U failed so no one had to get fired
Idk. It seems to me the wage disparity shouldn't be so extreme that the ceo's pay can cover dozens of worker's pay. It just seems like the bar is in the ground if all we can do is accept the scraps from people who make mutilple hundred fold of our wages.
It's better than most, but it just seems like the best could be better.
iwata (and a few other high ranking positions) took the pay cut because the wii u failed, and as president and decision makers of nintendo, it was their call to put that product to market. it wasnt fair for the everyday workers to take the hit because of said failure. he made sure that many of the lower employees were able to get keep their pay and get bonuses, because he worked his way up from the lower rungs of the ladder and knew how important a steady paycheck and bonus check can be.
Respect him for that but it really is the bare minimum
@@demandedcargo3919 so what do you propose ? how would you distribute it then?
@@demandedcargo3919 Or maybe some people deserve the pay because they worked up the corporate ladder? Not saying all executives are exempt or deserving, most of them definitely aren't and a bunch are there because nepotism, but Satoru Iwata seems like one of the few rare exceptions.

I had a manager tell me to "Get over it." When referring to my dying mother so I could work.
I really wish someone in that meeting had brought up her bonus.I would love to see her reaction on that...
I worked at Herman Miller as a Manufacturing Engineer for a couple years while the CEO was Walker. I feel like the culture while I was there was relatively positive and factory workers were relatively happy with compensation and such. From what I have heard about Owen it sounds like it's been a downhill slide since her arrival. But also furniture didn't do too well with the pandemic and both they and Steelcase suffered.
Oh also fun fact, I worked on the first few manufacturing builds of the chair that Ludwig’s big booty is seated in.
It's weird, because here in the UK at least, as we all started working from home Hermann Miller chairs were like gold dust. On ebay heavily used chairs were selling for more than the new RRP.
@@gb2983 Yeah it is strange that the used market was doing so well. Similar to Cars here in the US. The problem is individual consumer purchases are not a large portion of their sales. Their sales are mostly large contracts to outfit entire offices that are newly built or refit old offices. This includes everything from chairs like these to desks, cubicles, and pretty much any furnishings these buildings require. In the last couple of years, these large construction projects simply have not been happening as much. Sure individual consumer purchases may have increased, but that's not where these companies were making their money.
That’s actually insane that a boss is telling you to care more about the companies profit over your own income. My dad worked for a guy for like 4 years and was the reason they stayed open in Covid, and when everyone got sick he worked the entire week by himself along with me(as a cashier) and never got paid anything extra just a “thank you” and “I can never repay you this” by the boss. I eventually left by my own will because I didn’t really like the working conditions but then he got fired just like that.
Never work yourself to death for someone who won’t appreciate you’re work and can fire you whenever they want to.
I started working for a new company. I trained in 1 building and loved it there. After a few months I had to switch to a new building for my permanent position (which was the same job as I was doing in the other building) and one of the managers there was an absolute shit human being. I hated it so much and wanted nothing more than to leave but I was contracted for a year. So I stayed in the position for 8 more months dealing with this assholes abuse. Eventually when my contract was close to done I started applying for other interior positions. Got an interview with my now current boss and he's amazing. Always positive, nice words, complimentary, team player, wants to connect with his associates, and he doesn't micro-manage. Having a good boss can quite literally make or break a career entirely.
Biggest reason to leave a job even over pay usually
Aaaabsolutely, which is why people should never settle for the BS..... take measured, responsible steps until you find an environment that helps you to shine and perform at your best
Not sure how it is in your company/industry, but with one of the ones I dealt with an internal (lateral) move typically reflected poorly on the current management, too. Just a little added bonus ;) Glad to hear things are better!
At my current job we had a meeting where they told us that we needed to boost our productivity by 5 to 10x and after an employee asked if we would get a raise for being asked more. The answer was if you're not happy you can leave and we will find someone that will do it. They rather have new employees every few months then pay fairly
My boss got me a birthday gift and gave me a raise without me asking. W boss
At the end of last year, I got told that I was up for a salary raise contingent on cutting my hair to look more "professional" (FYI my hair was shorter than Ludwigs hair now). I ended up getting the haircut, and a week later I was fired because I told my boss that I did not appreciate that my pay was contingent on simply hair and not my ability as a worker. I was with the company for 8 years and the only person above me was him, the owner.
This conversation had no raised voices, no backhanded remarks, and if I remember correctly all I said was "it wasn't really a choice but if you would like to get into it we can sir" after he had said I had a choice to not cut my hair. But he informed me we would talk about it later, this conversation happened 2 days before I was fired, and the only reason it took 2 days was because it was the weekend.
That's bizarre, im sorry to hear that. I know American labor laws aren't that modern, but i have to ask: is that even legal? Is there any legal recourse you can take against the company?
@@markvenuto9383 thank you. I have reached out to employment law firms about it but no one wanted to pick up the case. So for now, I’m on unemployment.

I work at Walmart and they literally did this exact thing. All bosses kept there bonus’s and regular associates lost there bonus’s
DUDE YES!!! im so happy someone big i follow is bringing up the millerknoll story. my wife worked for herman miller for 3-4 years and started there a little less then a year before covid hit , when covid hit they laid off a ton of full time employees and dropped all temps at the time, they dropped the cafeteria workers/vendors and then offered voluntary temporary layoffs to the remaining employees who could then come back to work some months later when things cooled down during the pandemic , this happened in waves thru out the pandemic when the company felt like it had to many employees on payroll at specific times during the year. what herman miller did next with the freed up funds plus the government funds that companies could ask for during covid was purchase the knoll company. when employees started to come back from their temp layoffs they were forced into either taking a permanent layoff with a small severance package depending on what your position was or come back to work and work 6 days a week 10 hour shifts for over the following next couple years almost nonstop (i think my wife had maybe 2 full weekends off out of an entire year), this was mostly being done in high temperatures thru out the year as the zeeland michigan mainsite plant runs without AC on the factory floor and machines are always running extremely hot, there was employees that passed out from the heat and had to be taken for medical attention, while this was happening new management was slashing benefits/pto/holiday time off from employees and delayed that years (2021) bonus check to the following year (july 2022) and when employees asked why its being delayed they were told it was because the company was in a tough financial situation even tho the company at the time had just recently purchased an entire other company (knoll), so of course ceo makes a big dumb decision and the employees have to pay for it. there was rumors that the bonus checks were delayed as a way to get employees to stay longer since a large amount of workers were talking amongst themselves about leaving the company once they got their bonus (before they announced the checks being delayed) because new management was just ruining the company and general employee welfare was horrendous and back breaking but we'll never know for sure. every week employees attempted get a word in with upper management like team leaders trying to set up a meeting with the higher ups because they heard and felt the cries of their teams for so long only to either get some copy paste emotionless response in an email or nothing at all, finally one week after months of trying they managed to get a big group meeting scheduled with (i believe) the plant manager so the employees could voice their concerns and try to bridge the gap. the big meeting day came and everyone set up in a big room to collect their thoughts for this meeting that was about to start, low and behold the higher up did not show up because he called off the day of and sent in some new guy to take his spot for the meeting who had no clue what employees were talking about / much less even fully understood his own job at the time yet to soak up the complaints and give the higher up a quick summary of what was said the following day, nothing was changed and no voices were actually heard. more months go by and employees started dropping from the company like flies instead of waiting for their bonus that was delayed so herman miller didnt have to pay those that left the bonus that they had earned the year prior, staffing issues started to really ramp up at this point in the final stretch of the months remaining till bonus time and the company started shutting down lines / departments and outsourcing them to canada which then caused an influx of employees that suddenly had to figure out if they were getting a new position or just flat out being let go because upper management was just not communicating with the factory floor workers on what the big plan going forward was. It was a giant mess because the closer it got to the predetermined time frame of these lines/departments being shutdown any remaining workers in those areas had to scramble and look for other positions to secure their livelihood or risk being laid off which resulted in bad mannered / aggressive / sneaky tactics employees were pulling on each other like hiding information from each other on what positions/areas had spots available to try and more secure themselves in that slot over someone else which promoted more toxicity and bridge burning. after awhile of this going on that same higher up that skipped the big meeting I mentioned before came down and finally talked with the floor workers and they thought they'd finally get a word about their concerns in or at the very least get a better understanding of whats going on but instead he came to tell everyone that the amount of orders he was taking for the soon to be shutdown areas was not going to slow down regardless of the fact that they were very short staffed/skeleton crews in those areas at this point since no new hires were placed in them since the announced shutdowns earlier in the year and at one point during this meeting he even said "im not asking you to like me, im just telling you whats going to happen" (higher ups were constantly leaving early and never worked weekends so they always got to see their loved ones but didnt allow the floor workers the same privilege) , my wife told me that when he said that several very old employees that had been there for decades began to break down and cry because they were maybe a year or two away from retirement and at this point had been dealing with the horrible current work conditions for some time now, the amount of orders coming in were insane because millerknoll is an office furniture company and at this point many other companies had employees work from home during the pandemic and started to renovate / remodel their work spaces while the buildings were mostly empty so millerknoll was constantly getting big orders to fill out all the furniture in those buildings and crafting these items took a ton of man power like hundreds of giant slabs of very thick very heavy wood being worked and moved around with all day on a daily basis. some longtime employees had to get surgery on their backs from the years of work , 1 gentleman made it to retirement and died less then a week later to covid because his body was overworked and exhausted, it was just sad. when the delayed bonus checks came in a big exodus of employees including my wife quit and I think it was the best decision for them considering now this current video of the ceo andi being floated around just reassures me nothings changed since. theres a million other details of how horrible of a place its become to work there but i'd be here for hours, so I just wanna say thank you got adding your spot light to this situation and yes the actual real workers are amazing people but the leaders are just complete trash human beings.
Thank you for sharing, I’ve known few people to work in sales at the company prior to the merger and myself work in the design industry. I’ve toured some plants in jasper, IN and met some of the people there at their plants but I’ve never been up to Michigan to see those factories for the larger manufacturers.
Omg I remember my favorite job I had, they said if we meet our stretch goal, we get a donut party. I just remember feeling insulted. I still did my job to the best of my ability, that’s because it was as a tour guide and I loved the job. But for real, owners of companies need to treat people with respect.
Bro no way lmao. They treated you like you were 5th graders who got good grades on a test
My last company during covid asked everyone for 3 months to take a 10% paycut to avoid redundancies and pad our books to make us look better and get more contracts. After this was in place, they extended the cuts to 1 year and then proceeded to make many redundancies. Best part is in that time, the sales team who were on much higher pay, got 0 contracts. This wasn't a small company either, this is a fortune 500 company and I'm so happy I got out!
If a company asks for a favour, do not allow it. Its just like a terrible family member who swears up and down that they won't do it again, only to literally immediately do it again.
@@kempolar9768 It's worse than that, because at least that person is a relative.
@@cloudshad0ws Personally the family member is worse for me since you are supposed to have an actual connection there. At least with companies there are no normal expectations.
One of my past bosses told me "never feel like you owe the company anything, but sometimes you can owe the people something".
I work at an architectural design company and the sheer amount of clients we've had specifically lambast Herman Miller this week and opt for a much more affordable Branch office furnishing set and even its expensive competitors like Haworth and Steelcase (which imo all are 100x better in quality) has been really comical. It's really over for them, oml.
I'd be interested in hearing the story about the Best Buy boss, but am just relieved you don't have to deal with them anymore.
he talked about it on one of the older yard episodes! i dont remember the # though
The episode “thanks for watching the podcast” talks about it at 1:19:30 on the yard!
Ah thanks!
This Mogul Mail guy has a lot of potential in story telling, he should start a Twitch Channel that specializes in the Just Chatting Category.
w w well hes not on twitch anymore
Woah. This joke has never been made on this channel before. Except for literally every video
funny
Imagine you go to the fact sheet and its says "Ludwig says he's a good boss"
She literally said "stfu and keep making me money🤬😀😀" lmao
Why did ludwig just gloss over the best buy boss, huh???
He’s told the story before on The Yard

Bosses need to acknowledge their employees are actual human beings and treat them with more respect
Unfortunately that is antithetical to capitalism.
"Slave owners need to acknowledge their slaves are actual human beings and treat them with more respect" 💀
Have you considered that maybe they shouldn't exist at all?
You guys need to work in other fields (higher paying) than you currently work when you think every boss is like that or that it’s the same as slavery.
Yes, the owner of a 7/11 is going to be a cunt but that’s not true for every company because of that.
@@dropyourself To be clear you're going full blown no hierarchies allowed in the workplace?
I mean I get the idea of reducing wealth inequality and power imbalances but lol what
The mistreatment of farmworkers is so sad 😞 and for that lady..she needs a reality check
appreciate that you're doing this kind of content!
every time ludwig says things he doesnt want us to do he always gets into such detailed specific examples that i cant help but think he's secretly trying to get us to make him do it. so odd.
If we take collective action, we need succinct demands; clown outfit, bleached hair, actually deliver on promised streams. Drop your ideas and like your favs. This is how we win Boys!
we must unionize
The worst boss experience was my very recent boss which was at a lego store.
He had such a passive aggressive tone yet he talks about inspiring and being the best boss he can be, but he gave off Charles Miner vibes. From the very beginning I could just tell he didn't care about his employees unless they were female or popular with the females. I remember my uninform was a bit messy that day (2 weeks into my job) and he just started to fix it for me which made me really uncomfortable. Another time I was new to the job and someone told me to stand by the door. So I stood there and a few moments later he comes up and tells me I look like I'm gatekeeping and he told me to walk around. A week later someone told me to stand by the door again and guard but I was a bit hesitant so I tried to stand and guard but move around once in a while, and he got mad because I was not guarding the door. Another time my girlfriend and I were having a baby and so I asked for some time off and extra hours, so he granted me a week off and extra hours, but 2 days into my time off he called me in and said I needed to call in if I wasn't gonna come. He also reminded me I asked for extra hours so he made me come into work and leave my girlfriend with our first new born all alone while she was till recovering. I have tons more stories but these were I feel some I remember.
Oh also, I like you talking about moist moguls especially after intense topics. I don’t normally check it out tbh, but I like to hear how things are going. maybe someday I will check it out tho!
"Go fuck yourself, you're at Best Buy!" I will use that if I ever work there.
Ayyy late night mogul mails
yes
my best worst boss story is actually still my current boss. when I started working for him, one of my coworkers burnt a batch of 10 scones, but my boss got so mad that he threw a carton of creamer at my coworker...
I went from working to a giant coorporation to a literal moms and pops shop. And the dynamic is so different, it was worth it.
Lud, you're fired.
Fun video demonstrating how journalists should deliver
You should cover the situation at EY. They were going to split the company in two and bailed out, costing the firm over $600 million and now they’re laying off 3,000 employees since they’re at overcapacity. In the meeting they let employees know about the layoffs they confirmed e-mails would be sent out to those being let go in a couple months but they still expect everyone to work as if nothing is wrong.
I love it when a boss lets their employees call them pussyboy
As my friend’s motto in life goes: “people only have as much power as you give them respect”
can't wait for this guy to collab with ludwig
mogul mail killed ludwig
the last collab mogul mail had with ludwig didnt end well.
You know, for a company that sells $1k+ chairs, might be nice to give their employees their bonuses 🥴
I just know that their equally expensive rivals like Steelcase are laughing at them right now.
I wish you had left in her "boom" gesture... she makes it sound like what she said was groundbreaking knowledge
This reminds me of when I worked at a food pantry and my boss used to tell us that she’d doesn’t actually have to pay us our paychecks
Finally more Mogul Mail.
The first story should be about the worst parenting in the world.

I think it's wild to be asking about bonuses when your company is doing layoffs.
The second one is like a doctor who villain with daleks behind the camera waiting to destroy her if she the company doesn't make 26 mil more and she's reached a breaking point because of the pressure she's under except she's living comfortably as the ceo of a company with the same or less worries as her employees are but is asking for more from them still.
My boss is pretty nice. But I've learned that nobody will tell you when to take vacation. And the only person concerned about the amount of work you can take before stressing out is yourself.
I think it's fun when the video turns into a plug for moist moguls. As long as it's short, I think you should keep doing it
My two bad boss stories;
When I worked the nightshift in a UK supermarket, had the stereotypical 'short-man syndrome' guy in charge (he was about 5'5) who always acted like he had something to prove & didn't give a shit who he stepped on to get where he wanted - would basically tell you if you didn't stay over to help out (often unpaid, I might add) then you could forget about coming back in again, every single night shift would almost poll the whole staff of "which girl on the day shift has the best tits?", "who do you think takes it up the arse?", etc. The guy had no shame at all.
One bad example is when the company were hiring for the night shift he'd always offer 'trials' to 10-20 different people, and get a couple in each night to work a full shift as a trial period when we were busy, just to tell them they didn't get the job and bother shouldn't come back. A few of us had individually said to him it was a bullshit way of treating people and two of us got suspended for 'disrespecting management' - he'd basically told HR I'd told him to fuck off. Ended up getting overturned and he got moved to a different area, but I know now he's had multiple promotions and everyone along the way still seems to hate him, so doubt much else has changed!
A bit more my fault, but when I worked in a warehouse, traffic was super bad to get there every morning on the bus, so my daily choice was either leave 2 hours before my shift starts (when traffic was lighter) too get to work around 1.5 hours early ready to start at 9, or leave an hour before my shift and get there about 9:10-9:15, so 10-15 minutes late, and knock it off my lunch break. I obviously went with option B.
One day I'd made relatively good time and got there at 9:02, and the boss fired me for being perpetually late and said to me that the fact I wasn't willing to do whatever was necessary to be there at 9am each day proved I was not dedicated enough to the company. Can understand it might have been annoying from their POV but I was one of the fastest workers there, I could've started 11am and matched most people's daily workload.
We were packing car parts up and the team was always finished on orders a good hour before the day ended.
Glad I left those jobs far behind me!
I hope I'm a good boss for you, Ludwig. I think you're a very good employee and I'm glad you work for all of us.
This company I was luckily fired from about a month before this happened found out they were paying all of their sales reps about $500 too much per lead. The people they kept were forced to pay back about $10-20k each for the company’s mistake 😢 all docked from their paychecks. Also, they fired me because my sister passed away and I took 2 days off without hitting my quota yet 🤷♂️ so glad I was able to unknowingly rob them while I worked there 😂
You heard it first guys, I am the boss of Ludwig!!
0:50 that's a vibe Ludwig
Whole family just doubles down on the hard r lmfao
I honestly enjoy the moist mogul plugs. Theyre done in a fun not naggy way, so I'll be sad to see them go 😢
Damn, for the most time I thought ludwig was talking to me to. They don't lead, but let us bleed. And they cut money at our end, while their salery goes up and up. Still coming to us once in a while and try to motivate us to work harder for one of the leading stock market representives. When covid hit, we worked double and triple, but in case of bonus they halfed ours and gave them a big chunk for working from home. In the mean time, we have to deal with the danger of covid with increased work load.
I also complained about one particular person who is verbally abuses us constantly to fill her ego, but it took me 2 years before I got the courage. And it was for the same reason ludwig said, sometimes complaining puts you in a worse spot than before and I rely on the job.
0:45 Ludwig is literally a cartoon character 😂💀
Just started working at Best Buy, and I love it so far. It's a very relaxed environment between co-workers and the managers aren't breathing down our necks about BPs and TT memberships. Guess I got the good ending instead
Classic case of "rules for thee not for me" from that CEO
Are we getting a VTH vs CGP Grey Mogul Mail?
I love coming back to this video, I worked at a miller knoll location and quit shortly after that leaked video along with some of my other coworkers. Turns out almost a year later they’re still struggling to hire back on that shift
Seeing how Ludwig tends to respect himself I'm worried for his employees if he says he treat them like he treat himself
