Breaking: RESIGNATIONS IN THE NEWS: Taco Bell Employee Quits in Best Way Possible

(graphic at DU - "I Quit - Adam - **** You")

Adam was denied time off as requested after working 22 days in a row.

When Adam has worked 45 straight days of 12 to 14 hour a day mess duty (KP) in the Indian Ocean, in the middle of summer, washing dishes in water that smells like dead fish, for a racist Filipino chief, I will be impressed at his sacrifice.

9. it's ok to burn the Taco Bell bridge. That says more good things about him as a person
   
than had he worked two weeks notice. In Minimum Wage Land, people are often fired five seconds after giving their notice.

21. I'd hire him...he's got self respect and cajones.

Until you short his check (because, as a liberal, you pretend to love science and detest math) and he quits on you.

Capitalism is based on self-interest and self-esteem; it holds integrity and trustworthiness as cardinal virtues and makes them pay off in the marketplace, thus demanding that men survive by means of virtue, not vices. It is this superlatively moral system that the welfare statists propose to improve upon by means of preventative law, snooping bureaucrats, and the chronic goad of fear.

Nightwatcher, the proud quitter of seven jobs, isn't worth the paperwork to hire/fire his ass.

Hire/fire: just one letter difference in the words but worlds appart. I had never thought of that before...thanks nightwatcher.

I get lots of time off, but then again I don't work for minimum wage at Taco Bell.  :fuelfire:

And lets be real, with employment the way it is the employer will find someone new in no time at all.

When he applies for a new job, he has to list his employment history, if he's honest. Well...no need to go on.

^! Bump for citing the reality of life in the fleet.

Tough to quit in a sophomoric hissy pissy fit and sulk home to mommy's couch when you're two weeks from landfall.
Had to contend with more than one openly racist Flip Chief once upon a time, long ago and far way when I was an E-Nothing on TDY.

While we fleeters have had our dealings with the Filipino Mafia in some way or another, adding "Flip" to describe a "racist" is a bit much, is it not?

Ahhhhh, yer breakin' my heart!  22 days in a row having to ask "hard or soft" is the picture of hard labor.

 :whatever:

****in' *****...

When you libtards pull 12+ hours a day (7 days a week) in an industrial setting for 4 months straight or do 60+ days without seeing land, let me know.

Until then, keep your mouths shut and put some salt on the ****in' fries!
