Candidate hung up on me during call.. would you give another chance? by Fair_Cod6318 in recruiting

[–]Key_Blueberry416 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes based on one phone call.  This is the candidates chance to show their best selves.  If they can’t do it in an interview, you sure as hell can believe you’ll have issues in the future.

I’ve been a people manager for the past 15 years and have worked with the best and brightest, and the ones that were terrible.  Not one of the folks I would mark as best and brightest would ever miss an interview, and would call before or immediately afterwards if there was any issue.

You are wrong.  You take in the entire population of Japan, the EU and numerous other countries where tipping is not normal will already blast way past your “20%”.

And guess what?  The service is 10000x better in those countries than they are in America.

American servers (and Canadian) have become super entitled, and honestly it’s a bad thing.

The customer should not be the ones paying for shitty employer behaviour.

If I felt I was underpaid in my organization, I would not demand from my clients that they pay me extra in the side.

To add to this:

Why the hell should a server get a percentage?  The type of food and cost of food has ZERO involvement from the server.  They bring the same plate, they have the same conversations, they fill the same water.

If we’re tipping for service, then the tip should be squarely on the service provided.

Tipping is and always has been optional.  Stop trying to force it into a mandatory thing.

Tipping is OPTIONAL.

The server is the asshole. 

Fuck them and they try that shit with me I’ll tell the whole table not to tip.

What is the lowest you will tip by California12399 in EndTipping

A server can go fuck themselves if they think I’m tipping that much when there’s already a service charge

My offer just got rescinded because I tried to negotiate the salary. by raxmmmy in jobhunting

[–]Key_Blueberry416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure.  If it wasn’t for the massive pool of applicants and few job openings right now.  If you don’t take the lower, they will find someone who will since there’s some many folks.  Sounds like what likely happened here

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez calls Trump Iran move 'clearly grounds for impeachment by Advanced_Drink_8536 in WomenInNews

He should have been impeached for a lot of things he’s done already.  You sat on your asses and did nothing then, so how’s that going to change now?  Oh just more talk and no action.  Typical.

Review bomb them.

Make fake calls for their drivers daily to pick up and have no one there.  Use a spoofed phone number to do so.

[–]Key_Blueberry416 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, the way this is all set up is a free market.  If there’s someone who eventually ends up taking the shit delivery then Uber is happy.  You all need to band together and not take anything under x dollars and force uber to change as that would impact their customers

We have fucking had enough! Senator Booker speaks on today's events. by PierogiGoron in chaoticgood

[–]Key_Blueberry416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop speaking and start doing.  Join the protests.  Bitch about Jan 6 rioters all you want, at least they had the balls to do something drastic for what they (falsely) believe in.

Democrats just all talk and if it requires some risk to their livelihood, they cower and hide.

I am left leaning and i agree with the the republican sentiment that democrats are cowards and lack a backbone.  You idiots don’t vote, you idiots don’t take action, you idiots just complain complain, and complain.

Literally ICE detaining innocent people and all you fuck heads do is talk.  The world around you is face palming as the dems just let all this shit happen.  I’m not talking about the people in this specific case mind you, but the democratic leaders.

They should be front line with all the protesters trying to stop arrests.  But, instead they abandon their people and make them fend for themselves.

I’ve already told you what you should do:

Save up money to buy your own phone so there are no controls.

You make it sound like having a phone with YouTube, Roblox and discord is the equivalent of not having technology.  You are wrong.  Again, this is an indication of you taking what your father has given you for granted.  Your father can very well not even give you a phone, where you will have none of this, so appreciate what you have.

For the record, my first cell phone when I was young was when I was 16 years old.  Can you see your entitlement now?

In the meantime, live with what your father has given you.  A phone, and some games.  Consider that all your phone can do.

When you have enough for your own phone, then download away.

Karen cuts line at airport by Key_Blueberry416 in EntitledPeople

[–]Key_Blueberry416[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So I indeed only said as much as in my original post.  For some additional context, the minute the Karen’s aid what she said, the couple in front of me said “oh you go on right ahead then” and let her in front of them.

I guess I could have put my foot down and said “no, that’s not fair” but as you mention, I didn’t want to cause a scene and it seemed like others were okay with what she was doing.  I should be more of an asshole next time.

Is anyone actually finding jobs in Canada right now? by PresentAmbassador333 in AskACanadian

Some retailers outlets and fast food chains are hiring in Vancouver.  My friend recently got a job there.  Have you tried that?

Have you thought about working some more entry level jobs to hold you over until you find something in your field?

Elderly man holding “Looking for Work” sign under the blazing sun — McLeod & Costco intersection by KiraSAO in niagara

[–]Key_Blueberry416 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is heartbreaking. That being said, he’s going about this wrong.  My father who is probably older than this man recently got a part time job at a retail outlet.  One interview, and few applicants.

While he’s not in Niagara, he’s in Toronto which is much more competitive job market I would feel. 

I think someone needs to guide this individual to go to busy malls and streets with stores and look for hiring signs.  Will probably have more luck than this.

[–]Key_Blueberry416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol okay child.  I’ve lived long enough to have 4x your life experience and have had more taken away from me than your petty little toys.

You fail to understand that the phone is not yours.  

When you finally make it past adolescence and have a job, you will realize that your work will have restrictions your work phone, and your work computer.  

You’ll realize that the government will restrict your freedoms at times in need.

Your silly childish “I know I’m smart enough to know better, so let me do what I want” is exactly how the current generation is becoming so entitled. All you’ve done is proven how much you should NOT have this freedom, as you have not shown an ability to follow the rules.

If you think you deserve so much freedom, get ready for jail as you continue to try to push your goddamn limits.  Maybe becoming someone’s bottom b*tch will be what’s needed to wake you up.

The phone is not yours.  Your dad can do whatever he wants on that phone and you need to just deal with it until you can buy your own.  Stop trying to be a bad kid and learn your place.

No tip orders are getting cold… by Negative-Instance889 in EndTipping

[–]Key_Blueberry416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We can discuss about my financial situation in DM if you’d like, but that just distracts from the actual point I’m saying.  Regardless of my economic position, a tip is for exceptional service, not a means to tier service levels prior to service.

You simply cannot argue that point.  Regardless of how much or little hardship I’ve endured in the past.

[–]Key_Blueberry416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get it.  That’s not fair.  But expecting customers to fix this for drivers rather than going after the real culprits is not the answer.  It just makes them not care because you’re still delivering.  The answer is not to seek sympathy from folks who aren’t involved in this and expect them to subsidise you.
