Maybe they should talk to their employers about being forced to act like corporate mouthpieces. Or refuse. But if a bootlicker wants to lick boot, give em a taste.
Edit: My bad, I forgot you Americans don't have workers rights. You get what you vote for.
Do you think Apple store employees have the CEOs phone number on autodial?
You're complaining to the girl at checkout about prices like she has anything to do with it.
She has a boss doesn't she? You act like there isn't a chain of command like she can't go to her manager and refuse to be a corporate shill.
That didn't answer any of my questions.
Right right. So anyways,
Tell is all again about all those times you went up the chain of command to your manager and refused to be a corporate shill.
I literally just copy pasted what you wrote, Karen.
You keep throwing insults instead of answering anything. I feel sorry for you. I really do hope you're ok.
It's been dumb talking to you, but I have to go now.
Good luck out there. ❤️
I hope you’re not actually as rude to retail workers, waitstaff, and other members of the service industry as your comments make you seem like you’d be
I'm not rude to anybody who isn't rude first.
But if someone is going to act like a braindead mouthpiece for a corporation then I will tell them why they're wrong.
I never said be mean to staff, or rude. And you can't point out where I have because it didn't happen. You can still tell staff that insist on telling you that regulators are the cause of e-waste to inform themselves of their corporations decisions and how they sound parroting lies.
Staff aren’t being instructed to say this lol
Then there won't be anything to say to them about it will there.
Do you have any idea how many people are NOT going to be aware of the change and, if the sales people don’t tell them, it’s going to be a steady stream of Karen after Karen in the store. The general public doesn’t follow the tech news like this. Most of them aren’t going to be aware they’ll need a new cable if they need more than what’s in the box.
Where in that article, other than the headline, does it say Apple is specifically saying that? It doesn’t. It’s an editorial decision.
You’re basing your whole rant on what you read in the headline only?
You said this..
That isn’t actually stated as fact or rumor anywhere other than the headline. So, yes, you were basing the whole rant in the post I replied to on a headline.
You're right. Sorry.
“You get what you vote for”. My friend, you are unfamiliar with American politics it seems. Corruption exists in the world and gerrymandering is a problem in the us. I implore you to see others with empathy instead of hatred.
This comes off very condescending and xenophobic. I get that other countries have better rights. I’d love to have that. But if you don’t quite know the extent of what you’re hatefully spewing, maybe try to see things through others shoes instead of insulting them. We are all people and the world would be a better place if everyone realized that.
