god this is such an old meme but here. here is my take of the day
Just now finding out about The Dodo being owned by PETA. The little bastards are getting smart now. Nobody wants to watch videos on veganism, so they gather cute animal stories/vids and collect the revenue from there.
Time to drop them, lmao. Fuck PETA with an elephant’s dick.
what is it about a retail uniform that makes boomers lose all empathy or critical thinking
i was grabbing something to eat at whole foods and one woman started shouting “excuse me?! excuse me?!” and I ignored her cause I don’t know her. She then came up to me and grabbed my arm and went “I was calling you! Can you help me find something?” and I was like….I don’t work here? And she rolled her eyes and went “Well can you find me someone who DOES?” and when I said “No, sorry” she got all huffy. like…..bitch I don’t work here and I’m not on the clock. I need to eat.
Once when I was in Target with my mom this woman tapped me on the shoulder and goes “do you work here? where can I find the baby section?”. The target dress code is a red shirt, khakis, non-slip shoes, and a name-tag. My mom and I were wearing none of these; I didn’t even own a red shirt at the time.
I just said, “we don’t work here??” She got mad and was like “Are you sure?” so I went “Are you stupid..?” and carried on shopping
I’d like to think its less the uniform and more the fact that baby boomers simply just lack empathy and critical thinking as a whole like that wasn’t the first time an older person has asked me for help assuming I work there when I’m wearing nothing close to the uniform and am minding my own business shopping and it certainly hasn’t and won’t be the last
this happened to me in best buy. nothing i was wearing resembled their uniforms, and i was very clearly shopping, testing out different laptops and shit.
this lady came up to me and asked what tv’s were the best (which like, you couldn’t ask someone in that department in the first place ? i was on the other side of the store ?), to which i explained that i don’t work at best buy. she got really pissy and kept demanding i help her and i was like i ? don’t ? work ? here ? i ? don’t ? know ?
she threatened to get “my” manager to which i had no response because again, i don’t work there. they’re not my managers. i just kinda said “okay…?”, and she really went and found a manager and brought him over to where i was just tryna find a laptop.
she starts telling him what happened, and he was like “ma'am,,, this kid doesn’t work here. he’s not one of our employees.”
she claimed that i should have helped her anyways, and that she’d be giving their store “a very bad review”
like what the fuck was that shit
OK but if you don’t think that our generation is gonna be doing exactly the same thing once certain people hit 40, you haven’t been paying attention, we already went from “let’s be compassionate to the kids growing up” to “the next kid who mentions Fortnite in front of me gets punched”. It’s not just boomers it’s people who are old enough to feel entitled to special treatment.
