Not saying a business/person wouldn't try to do something this shitty, but this seems like such a low effort thing to fake. Literally just a word doc printed out and duct taped to a wall.

lol

Usually these things will just say you can't accept such items because it could be considered a bribe or at the very least unprofessional. And here we have an asshole straight up saying "give your bribes to me!"

I'm just thinking of all the times customers offered me food and drink while servicing them as an internet service installer. You gonna take all my Dr. Pepper and tacos, too, boss? How 'bout I leave 'em in a pile on your desk after I'm done?

The whole schmoozing (bribing) culture is messed up regardless of who is on the receiving end.

They hang notices with duct tape…

Time to update you CV and head elsewhere.

i would just consider those not property of the owner considering anyone can consider anything to be anything

When I'd get stuff, I'd always offer it to the employees first. My employees used to encourage vendors to show up to get free stuff. I'd let them get whatever they could. One employee got free night vision goggles.

Yeah, I’m a manager and I fully encourage my staff to take tips and gifts even though it’s against company policy. If a client offers a tip, I normally respond with something like “I don’t take tips, but if you and the part-timer want to to walk around the corner where there’s no security cameras, I’ll stay right here so I don’t see any money change hands.”

The part-timers need the money more than I do anyways. $50 won’t make a huge difference to me, but could be the determining factor in whether or not the part-timer has enough gas money to get to class next week. Plus they’re the actual boots on the ground making sure the day-to-day runs smoothly. I’m just doing paperwork and hanging out in case any big issues pop up.

Why does HE get to make a unilateral decision on a subject of legal ownership. When did he get elected to the Legislature?

This is probably one of the few places my job doesn't do it horribly.

Any gifts that aren't perishable get saved up and then before Christmas we do a grab bag type thing where we all take a number and pick a "present" from the swag we've been sent.

The only way they do it "wrong" is that the perishables (usually cookies) always go to the office and we never get them on the factory floor! I want cookies DAMNIT!! Lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

My office is bad about the cookie thing too. My office is split across two different buildings.

I have worked here for several years, and we only found out a month ago that the main building has free bagels in the break room every Monday morning. The main building never bothered to tell us, because it’s donated from the local bagel shop as a “there until they’re all gone” situation. And the office drones in the main building didn’t want to share, so they just never told any of us in the secondary building.

We only found out because the bagel shop wanted to do an event in our secondary building. The main building was extremely pushy about us making sure it went well, and offered a bunch of free shit too. We finally chatted to the bagel shop owner about how odd it was that the main building was so invested. She casually dropped the “oh that’s probably just because of all the free bagels we send y’all every week haha” type of comment.

Did some digging, and sure enough the owner sends like a hundred bagels over to the main building every Monday morning. She always assumed that they were sharing, because it’s way too many bagels for just the primary building… But it turns out the employees over there were just hungry hippo’ing the break room table and taking like six bagels home every week.

Then...why do you still work for such a company?
