The manager is catching on that s/h/it is a worthless paperweight as an employee. They've begun the process of encouraging the leech to move on to the next victim.

Poor guy's pretty Caddy is set to be repo'd.

****ing magats!

At least SheltieLover gave context, though "pretty Caddy" suggest the post may be fiction. Is "Caddy" still current usage? To me it has a '50s or '60s ring.

     Impossible. Other DUmp threads assure us that the economy is in the best shape it's ever been. Trump isn't even POTUS yet. This is fake news.

    And even if it isn't, cutting back hours shouldn't matter to a DUmmy, at least not in this Biden economy where everyone was able to store masses of wealth.

I guess that if you had your hours increase like mine did because your boss managed to get himself fired for not showing up for work would be bad then too? I was working two to three days a week because of limits on my income placed there by SS and next thing I know I am filling in for my former boss. At least for the rest of the month I am back to my work schedule. I guess some DUmpmonkies should make themselves more valuable to the company and they wouldn't lose hours.

Strange. My company has >260 Engineering job openings posted, worldwide. Taken together with other job categories and focusing only on US jobs, there are probably a couple hundred jobs available at my company across the US. This has been fairly typical in the >8 years I've been here, so the tie to WashDC is pretty much just that Trump and LIEden didn't F things up for my company.

If the "It" to which the ironically self-named no_hypocrisy cryptically alludes is the economic collapse DU-Denizens are hoping for, that fantasy "It" is not happening and probably won't.

The part the DUmmie is probably leaving out is that it is losing it's hours due to STATE or LOCAL regulations requiring the small business it works for to pay it $21/hour minimum wage starting this month and the small business (located in a blue town near you) is having to cut hours to even stay afloat.  This can only go on for so long so DUmmie may want to start hunting a new job, posthaste!

Ummmmmmm, the last time I worked for minimum wage, Nixon or Ford was President. Why would an adult DU-Denizen be stuck in a minimum wage job?

Easy. Minimum marketable skills. They never expected that they'd actually be required to provide for their own needs.  :thatsright:

Because they are,
Stupid
Uneducated
Unemployable
Have no useful skills
Are untrainable
They complain a lot
And possibly they lack basic personal hygiene skills.

Is that good enough for a start??
