Not reporting is bourgeois


 

Why are service workers despised?
They're constantly berated by customers
Teachers and Parents treat it like the lowest possible job one can have
Pay most of the time is minimal

>>779
the sound they make rattling their cage serves as a warning, to the rest.

>>779
why the fuck isn't there a fast-food coop
Fast food corporations make shitloads of money the least they can do is share it

>>779
I wish I was a service worker, hate destroying my body for porkies pennies

bougie media implant and reinforce the notion that only elite (non-productive) labor is worthwhile and everything else is slop for subhuman cattle
this ideology maintains the social hierarchy beneficial to the ruling class
+ alienation from the fruits of your labor + invisibility in broader economy and lack of control over your conditions from decades of anti-union propaganda (see above) / wage slavery
come home prole man

It's the service workers' fault, they never solve any of your problems if you are nice and polite, but the minute you start shouting and making a scene suddenly they can easily fix the issue that they said couldn't be solved before.

mfers entitled af and powertripping with random service workers is the only chance they get to feel like the boss they're cucked out too but want to mimic while still resenting them deep down. not to mention for whatever reason ppl act fucking entitled as shit when it comes to other peoples demeanor like I gotta act like im fucking molly all day just cuz your graced the store with your presence. They put the fries in the bag now drive away fatass tf you need all this glazing and niceties for dont you have actual positive social relationships instead of the shitty lil simulcra of one

The biggest irony is, service industry has the most customers compared to others.

If service workers poisoned the supplies, they could depopulate the earth.

People ought to show more respect to service workers.

It's not their fault your lazy ass cannot cook because you don't wanna despite having kids from mutual deadbeats

>>786
I don't understand how people can't cook when it takes as little as 15 minutes too make something edible

>>788
FREE DUMB

>>788
Some people genuinely can’t handle the responsibility of handling boiling water or hot oil.

>>791
I know I can't

>>791
This and also many people just don't have basic cooking skills today.
The amount of regulars I had when I was a short order cook at the grill in my grocery store was insane. People coming daily to have me cook for the entire family.

>Why are service workers despised?
Service workers are not proletarians. Service worker is semi-proletarian or flagrantly bourgeois. Capitalist police are service workers. Capitalist police are bourgeois exploiters.
>Part of the national income is transferred, by way of payments for, what are called services, to the non-productive branches (e.g., for use of municipal services, medical aid, places of entertainment, etc.). As already pointed out, no social product is created in these branches, nor, consequently, any national income; but the capitalists who exploit the workers employed in these branches receive part of the national income created in the branches of material production. From this income the capitalists who own businesses in the non-productive branches pay the wages of their workers, meet the material outlay which they have to find (for premises, equipment, heating, etc.) and take their profit.
Service workers produce no value. Service workers are as much of a drain on the proletariat as the capitalist who employs them. Capitalist banker is service worker. Capitalist teacher is service worker. Service workers are at least partly bourgeois at their worst because they produce no value, yet they steal it from industrial proletariat, therefore they are exploiter.

This is the official line from Stalinist Proletarian Political Economic Textbook. Don't bother arguing against proletarian science with usual vulgar capitalist theories of all profit equating to produce.
(Walmart cashiers produce surplus-value because they afford walmart profit!!1)
(Police produce surplus-value because they perform a service)
(Labor-saving idea of Garnier, Lauderdale and Ganilh)

These same customers stuffed their shopping carts at Publix or Walmart min you.
They can still cook somewhat but they're too lazy too

Any one who does residential cleaning will notice that refrigerators are the second nastiest places.
Lots of rotting food due to people not using up what they buy.

I’m guessing it’s probably hard to compete. Consumers got a lot of options and normally to keep prices lower you have to sacrifice something in the process. That’s typically labor or decent ingredients.

>>781
Because those kind of jobs are just used as some hangout space.
Alot of employees and managers see the job as a financial hobby to do or a stepping stone to better work.

>>812
The moment this site bans tor users, is the moment it improves 10 fold.

Its sad that retail and restaurant workers tend to laugh or smirk when I call them "Ma'am" or "Sir". Like they're in disbelief by the acknowledgement of their humanity from a fucking customer. People really do just put them through the ringer. Unironically emotional labor.

>>779
classism? its some kind of holdover from when aristocrats treated 'the help' like subhuman animals, but now you get to be the aristocrat when off work and people at work are the subhuman. the wonders of capitalism
