How terrible to be expected to do the job you’re being paid to do.

This was like ten years ago, one of my prouder moments
WTF man you are the problem with this country
Yes. Be proud you helped an “extremely incompetent” coworker keep her job. That’s what the workforce certainly needs.
Way better than being a bootlicking snitch

They solved that problem by eventually giving that person a promotion to a better-paid job of less importance.

Maybe don't continually threaten to punch me in the head a couple years after I got continually punched in the head. Stop bringing it up! You're the bad guy in this story!
Bitch, I'm not an Argo head punch historian. How was I to know? You overreacted bigly!

Being punched in the head made him a better poster.

I just hope Argo doesn't delete the whole union at the first sign of adversity.

Historically, unions are willing to punch a few heads themselves. But I am no head puncher

You’ve been working for … 15? 20? … however many years and NEVER had a colleague that got fired?
I can't think of any at the moment, no
You should come work for me or wease and you’ll see how it’s done
That employee I wrote up last week turned in her 2-week notice yesterday.
Do you let them fulfill the 2 weeks or just cut the cord now?

I let them. Sometimes they don’t make it and leave before.

Holy cow, my factory job is so much better since that one person got fired. I wish them the best and all, but I've liked my job much better the last week

Feel like I got sucked into a time loop.

When am I?
