Am I supposed to know what a pepperhead is?

YerbaYerba ,

People who like eating spicy peppers

Squibbles , in Pondering my anomaly

Good domekeeper joke ;)

My friend works at a fast food place. You wouldn’t believe some of the stuff they’ve had to deal with. People are disgusting.

shimdidly , in Inflation?

This meme is propaganda. The primary cause of inflation is out of control government spending. In the wise words of Milton Friedman, “Every budget is balanced… If you want to know the real government budget look at inflation.”

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,

The primary cause of inflation is a massive increase in the money supply

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Sure. The 20% inflation since 2020 is why food prices have doubled.

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,

During the last federal election on Nov. 3, 2020, food inflation was running at just 3.9% annually. Fast forward to March 2024, and the latest data shows food prices have risen a whopping 25.8% since then.

Money supply has gone from 15.5 to 21 = +35% over the same period

CaptnNMorgan ,

My understanding is that the government wants to reduce the value of the dollar so their massive debt has less value

You’ve never worked retail, have you?

In middle school we had a kid that routinely smeared shit over the entirety of the stall he used; i totally understand them for putting up that sign

I’m fairly sure that kid would have done this regardless of said sign though.

The problem is the sort of person this applies to will respond:

"That sign won't stop me because I can't read!"

Are you aware of the legendary Ryan's Steakhouse story?

Hell, that thing might be an urban legend, but it's supremely well written and if I was in graphic design, that story alone would probably lead me to thinking that selling signs like this would be a good idea.

If you haven't heard it, a web search for "The Steakhouse incident" (with quotes) or "macaroni beef toilet story" (no quotes) will probably turn up yet another re-hosting of it.

For the lazy, here's one I found just now: http://www.ihos.com/steakhouse.html

Manager: This looks like a job for THE HOSE

Lmao

st0rmy ,

I haven’t seen this since the late 90s / early 00s!!! Thanks for this!

wjrii ,

Now I want some big fat yeast rolls. Nobody else does them quite right.

Yep, that’s my takeaway from that.

Oh, also the JATO Guy story.

You_are_dust ,

Well I guess reading that is now a permanent memory for me.

wise_pancake ,

I was laughing so hard reading this that I had to read it to my wife and we both have been laughing historically at it

In my experience, the “NO” figure should be bent over a bit more in order to project onto the wall behind the toilet as well as the ceiling above. No better memory of working retail than going up to my boss and explaining why I needed to know where the spare ceiling tiles were.

KevonLooney ,

Reminder to anyone still working retail: if your job description isn’t “janitor”, you don’t need to clean that up. It’s a biohazard and they can pay more expensive people with better equipment to do it.

Empricorn ,

Reminder to you that bosses can and will ask you to do things that are not your job. And since you need money for rent and food, you will have to do it. Otherwise, they will probably get rid of you, and will find a plausible legal reason.

KevonLooney ,

No, you will not “have to do it”. Either they can afford to pay a qualified person to do it, or they can’t. If they can’t afford a more expensive person, they definitely can’t afford to fire you. You are the cheap one.

Think about it: if they put themselves in this situation, they are going to end up cleaning it themselves. “Need money for rent and food”? If you have a crappy minimum wage job, you have the power. Literally no one above you wants to do your work. You can definitely tell them “no”. Do you think there’s some shortage of crappy minimum wage jobs?

Retail. The horror stories my better half tells will make your skin crawl.

bastion , in Horror Sign

Truly a shitpost.

I had to double check which year it’s today.

P4ulin_Kbana ,

Today is 2024. At least in the gregorian calendar.

samus12345 ,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

The episode’s from 2006, so it makes sense.

captain_aggravated ,
@captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works avatar

That would make this an ~18 year old artifact.

P4ulin_Kbana ,

This is my only memory of South Park since I was a kid.

I wish I didn’t remember it as well as I do.
