Re: Systemic / Institutional / Societal Racism
I'm always amazed at people willing to take front-line employees to task for corporate policies. I'm sure they're just fed up with the bullshit, but why take down some poor kid over it? I promise you that cashiers are getting fucked by store policies at LEAST as much as customers.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

This is where you burst out laughing at the very idea of America as a place where we don’t give charity to business, I’ll bet.Bammer wrote:Customer: Well yeah you’re supposed to give money to charity but that’s not how business works!

I went to my kid's 5th grade science fair last night and had several kids tell me about their projects. I'm gonna lay off of Bammer a little bit.
