My employees were eating too many fun sized bags of chips so now I make them front the expense of buying their own tools lol

I assumed the people in the comments would at least be calling him a dick, but nope, someone seriously said he should've installed a camera to see who was taking too many bags of chips. Fucking r*dditors.

I love the part where he's mad about snacks, so he throws a tantrum and overhauls the whole workplace's amenities based on his "beliefs"

I know like six of this guy personally

I genuinely thought you must have editorialized the title, but nope, this guy is just that much of a fuckhead, he's actually proud of what he's done.

His smug attitude about how nobody will leave over this really bothers me, because I'm pretty sure he's probably right. So many people would rather keep on working for the devil they know than risk trying out a new job. The lack of a social safety net is the best thing going for small business tyrants.

So many nasty bits to this story. Even if someone was taking a bunch of extra chips, why should he care? He can have his own private reserve of chips in his office if that's the problem.

The whole story reads fake to me but even in the imagination of this borderline sociopath, he's trying to say that communal goods can't work because of the workers taking too much. All he ends up proving is that communal goods can't be relied on when they're in the hands of the capital owners.

The most telling part of it is how he presents it. He accuses and says someone is lying to him. The real response would be to say something like "Hey maybe someone is taking too many chips, does that bother any of you?" My guess would be no because chips are shit food anyways, but if it did the workers would figure it out amongst themselves.

At my last work we had a Keurig and coffee pods, and people started hoarding pods at their desk because there was never enough. The hoarding was a symptom. Rather than address the underlying issue they stopped providing them all together and sent out a tone deaf email about how it was our fellow workers faults abusing the great company's magnanimous generosity.

The end of that story - that he'd lug in MASSIVE vending machines and go through the pain of stocking them (it takes like a half hour) for pocket change returns squeezed out of the paychecks he gives to his own employees is just 🦹

Socialism is when I buy chip and workers steal them all and I get no chip 😢

Alt: any laborer born after 1983 can't work. All they want is eat my chip, watch my cable, and lie

What’s a bet one of his employees is struggling to put food on the table for his kids.

This is one of those moments where a bit of humanity could have really improved someone’s life but instead this cunts ego got hurt over some chips

$30/month per employee for them to have this tantrum.

Mine serfs did sup too greedily upon the charitie of their Lord, so henceforth their corvée shall no longer be met with free gruel and cast-off trenchers

I used to be one of the full-time mechanics but now entered more of an entrepreneur role, owning more properties and businesses.

>owning more properties

And this got UPVOTED? Man fuck reddit

There’s probably one guy taking a bunch home that ruined it for everybody.

yeah it was op dude
