    Quoth Mr Hero View Post
    These people are showing happiness at their jobs? How dare they?
    How dare they, indeed! That would suggest that the workers are somehow...Human! The nerve!

      Is it just me, or does it fill anyone else with supreme rage when you hear someone say, "The help"?

          I instantly pictured a Victorian era snob.

          Then I pictured Betty Draper from Mad Men.

          Made me mad both ways. So much for the Golden Rule
          They say that God only gives us what we can handle. Apparently, God thinks I'm a bad ass.

            Very much not just you. It flips a switch in me the same way it does when someone refers to (or implies that) retail/food service jobs as "not real jobs."

              What the hell, does she want the staff fitted with those anti-bark shock collars? Say nothing, just do the work and simper when I give you the honor of looking at you! Glad you got your coworker to laugh at it.
              And then the SCs would laugh in the presence of the staff, and one of two things would happen:

              1) The shock collars would be triggered by the SCs laughter.
              2) The shock collars wouldn't be triggered by the SCs laughter, so they'd complain to management about the "faulty" collars that wouldn't let them inflict pain on the staff whenever they wanted.
              Any fool can piss on the floor. It takes a talented SC to shit on the ceiling.

                OK, it's official...I hate people. (Present company excepted, of course ) If we didn't laugh at work we'd be totally insane by now...and we can't even laugh that much because it's a call center, so either we have to be quiet or we're busy on the phones...

                  I've been at that point for years now. There are occasional humans I'm fond of, but most of the human race could be wiped out and I wouldn't blink an eye.

                  It's okay, I know I'm going to hell. I have the marshmallow concession . . .

                      Hrmm, I wonder if I can have my funeral arrangements involve a graham cracker casket, marshmallow pillows, and a sheet of chocolate...

                      Nah, probably not. It would be in poor taste.

                        Not at all. It is an ancient tradition to bury the dead with food for their journey to the afterlife. Might as well take something tasty along.

                              I do believe I'll pass on the Long Pig entirely, thank you. Bacon or no.
