A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Do you honestly think 16 year old me gave 2 shits about being fired? Or that an arbys manager would give 2 shits about customers? Have you BEEN to arbys???

Also, your logic doesn't track. If you're saying that McDonalds should fire this guy for snitching, that implies that McDonalds DOESN'T support snitching. That his actions were his own and do not represent the company who at that point would no longer employ him.

Whereas I knew MY manager at that time would have been high as hell at work, and loved to watch this woman yell and scream and be a karen decades before that term existed. I directed her to take her threat DIRECTLY to the front of house to put on a show everyone can see, because I knew I had no reason to give a shit.

And really, NO fast food worker should give a shit about the customers past a certain point. Be nice to those nice to you, but when they start bitching, they can fuck off with that.

Back to the topic at hand, the snitching would be their own personal actions, not the company.

Fair.

I didn't say that.

I agree entirely. But at the point that worker starts behaving as you described they're going too far. It's only warranted if the manager is being a lazy shit and not protecting the people they're meant to be managing.. and at that point should be followed up by an on the spot quit because that manager failed hard.

Back to the topic at hand, the snitching would be their own personal actions, not the company.

On time the company is renting they're a representative of that company so you're wrong in that.
