A big fuck you to the box store that made my friend, who had been a 10 year employee, have to ask for a bathroom break. He quit and is dancing with delight that he finally escaped your underpaying clutches. Fuck corporations like you for being such colossal arseholes with your micromanagement bullshit. I hope you go tits up and, because you’re in the business you’re in, I predict it’ll take about 5 years. – Stop Treating Staff Over 50 Years Old Like Children

  1. People don’t get fired for taking bathroom breaks unless they appear to be taking too many of them.

  2. he didn’t get fired, he quit because he was fed up with having to ask to go to the bathroom like a 5 year old. that’s how i read the posting.

  3. if you are having to find a replacement for your station before leaving, then yes, you will need to ask for a replacement.

    Being a cranky old foghorn that doesn’t like to ask for a replacement, does not mean that he has to ask for permission.

  4. When you gotta go you gotta go ! Having to get permission in a retail environment seems a bit silly, its not like yer on an assembly line !

  5. What’s the big deal about going to the bathroom? If they’re taking ten because of a big dump, I don’t care, I can wait. The staff tend to be all over me when I don’t need them and when I do, I can’t find them so…meh.

  6. No one should have to ask permission to go to the fucking can, especially if you’re more than a half-century old – c’mon folks, the plumbing ain’t new anymore. Too bad OP’s buddy didn’t do a John Cleese goose step upon his exit. Holding his finger under his nose while doing so would have been a bonus.

  7. “if you are having to find a replacement for your station before leaving, then yes, you will need to ask for a replacement.

    Agreed.

  8. I’m sure there are dozens of other suckers in line waiting to take your friends job without a word of complaine. Thats the problem – no one will even bother to try and stand upa nd help themselves and everyone here just bends over and takes it. Please sir may I have another?
