The detection algorithm is also trash and may decide to eat you anyway, as well.

Adding nothing to the discussion? Believe it or not, downvote.

I have and will continue to walk out mid transaction when I notice particularly egregious shit like that. It's the least I can do. Actively talk into the camera, and make sure they KNOW exactly why I'm walking out. Does it do any good? No, but it makes me feel a bit better.

Generally the only thing I think about shareholders is feeding them into a grinder feet first.

Sorry, to be clear, that line was sarcasm. I agree with you, these videos aren't click bait.

I mean, sure. Still hypocritical.

Clearly any video that asks a question or implies a strange phenomenon or situation is click bait. See also:chubbyemu videos here

For the record, I do not think these are click bait, if they're accurate. Or, at least, they're click bait that actually gives you a worm instead of some shitty rubber faux worm.

"we need workers so you can't take PTO"

"We don't need you, you're fired."

They told him in one sentence he was essential, and in another, he was replaceable. Either they did not need him for the time he requested, as evidenced by the fact that they fired him, or they DID need him, and the boss isn't a hypocrite, just a short sighted idiot on a power trip.

And Occam's Razor pretty easily lets us throw out this line of reasoning, absent any further information.

The facts we know are:

• Employee put in a PTO request

• Employer denies it

• Employee takes PTO day anyway

• Employer fires employee

• Employer makes post referenced in OP.

Occam's Razor states that, when two or more scenarios are equally likely, the one that makes fewer assumptions is the more likely one. It certainly seems like the gymnastics required to reach the scenario you presented requires a lot more assumptions (active project, able to move deadline, proper communication was given to the employee) than the scenario most people here have gone with - assuming the boss is a bad boss, and fired the employee out of retribution.

So yeah, I think most people are gonna land on "the boss is the asshole" barring motivated reasoning, like enjoying boot leather.

Ooooor you sound like you think you know the other person's life better than they do. Like a manager who thinks it's appropriate to fire someone while their relative is actively dying. No hive mind here, just a gaping asshole.

Alternatively, pi_sing off people who call things cringe is based as f_ck so maybe I'll start self censoring.

I think a kneejerk reaction to reading something wholly wrong is to assume it doesn't add to the conversation. I think we're all conditioned to see someone we don't agree with as clearly a troll taking the piss, rather than an opportunity to discuss.

Anyway, downvoted because it's funny.
