- Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

I see other people talk to their bosses like that sometimes. I'm always shocked at how blunt they are in a clearly hostile business arrangement, but these guys do exist.
Makes me thank my lucky stars my boss is just a normal person.
I mean don't get me wrong you gotta assert your boundaries, but I'd just say "no" and not offer a detailed reason. You can hear how I really feel while I'm on the clock. ๐
Like yeah if you're good work buddies that's fine, but it's a great way to get fired for insubordination and general "dude you're a dick" reasons if applied to all employers.
I'd fire them in a heartbeat. I'll gladly cover a couple extra shifts a week for a few weeks if it means I don't have to endure a colossal asshole killing morale on my team.
