dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

why does every small bean capitalist have a 5 year olds understanding of the world?

[–] Erika3sis@hexbear.net 35 points 9 months ago

Having sold their souls to capital, they long for the last time they experienced real human connection — thus they retreat into an infantile state of mind, desperately trying to claw back that which they lost.

Or something.

The US education system is not conducive to gaining an adult understanding of the world.

It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his dividends depends upon his not understanding it

There's a pizza place I don't go to anymore because it has a "joke" sign up that does some bad math to prove no one works enough thus no one deserves days off. Reminds me of this.

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 22 points 9 months ago

I know the sign you’re talking about.

If porky needs me so badly that he would die if a single employee took one unpaid day off, then imagine all the extra cash we can yank out of that pig’s trotters if multiple workers threatened to not go to work unless he parted with some of his precious cash stack.

Sorry bossman, my landlord needs this money more than you. Don’t like it? Take it up with my landlord.

Profits are up... Costs are down!

My brother in wages, we ARE the cost!

Tell me your a surplus value thief without saying you're a surplus value thief.

[–] Erika3sis@hexbear.net 21 points 9 months ago

Can we make Fridays "dress-up" days?

Yes, but the only person who's getting dressed up is going to be the boss, and the workers are the ones who choose the clothes. The boss ends up wearing clown makeup and 50 coats on top of each other, each a size too small.

This has to have at least a little irony poisoning to it, right? They can't be that childish in their expectations without at least a hint of "just joking" cowardice, right? anakin-padme-2

Sounds like a guy that misses the "good old days" of outright slavery and indentured servitude. Place screams for unionization.

[–] frauddogg@hexbear.net 19 points 9 months ago

I'd have to deface this sign the minute I saw the "I'd take a pay cut to keep working here" spot. Like, this is why I carry sharpies right next to the folding knife when I leave the house.

Joker-ass named company right there

[–] REgon@hexbear.net 16 points 9 months ago

You're gonna go home early anyway, so why should I invite you to do it?

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 16 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

The font and style looks like something you'd find in an elementary school classroom where I grew up.

[–] callouscomic@lemm.ee 15 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

These are always the kind of managers who (unsolicited) tell me I don't conduct myself appropriately in the workplace, as if they have better social and communication skills.

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 14 points 9 months ago

There is one of these in light blue that I would say all the time if it wouldn't get me disciplined.

[–] TheDoctor@hexbear.net 14 points 9 months ago

This is just someone who resents responsibility and has no interest in making sure their business runs efficiently. You want me to act like an owner? Give me and all the other employees equal share to you in the company. You want to not have to enforce rules of conduct? Give up your leadership position. It’s your fucking job.

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 14 points 9 months ago

Assuming this is real, I want to flay this person

The best you'll get from me is "I won't personally advocate for you being thrown in a pit", and that's a high bar.
