Date: December 10th, 2019 3:07 PM Author: Arousing legend Not saying she’s a Steve Jobs visionary, but it’s increasingly rare to see a manager - especially C-level - who has the audacity to believe (and to get in the trenches and enforce) the crazy idea that customer service people should answer the phone when it rings.
Or that the company should make things right for customers when their orders get fucked up.
Yeah she’s a cunty shrew bitch but that’s basically a requirement now for someone who’s a company’s last line of defense against DMV-quality customer service.
I know very well how most females are incapable of being managers at any level, but jfc take the redpill out of your ass for just a second breh. |

Date: December 10th, 2019 3:40 PM Author: Fear-inspiring hateful parlour it's a fucking luggage company and the jobs are shitty customer serivce jobs. the term "startup" loses it's meaning when it includes companies selling products that already exist in 10,000 other iterations. these girls are employees and don't have equity, so why would they give a shit if it's a new business? They should be looking for businesses with actual growth potential and not some shitty commodity product that everyone already owns and doesn't replace until it literally falls apart.
all millennials job hop and i doubt these idiot girls know or care about job hopping. they just want to live in nyc while their parents pay their rent and get to say they work at some trendy sounding company. assholes like you encourage calling these "startup jobs" which manipulates these chicks into working there instead of making more $ doing the same job 9-5 in a low COL. |

Date: December 10th, 2019 3:46 PM Author: Fear-inspiring hateful parlour why does it matter if it's a "start-up"? and why would a 22 y/o care about benefits, which probably aren't actually good anyways if the company can't even afford to hire enough customer service airheads?

|
Date: December 10th, 2019 3:56 PM Author: violent tank skinny woman i said reputable start-up, follow along. it matters because it looks good on a resume, and you assume many duties you wouldn't have at places like black & decker that you posted below.
22 y/o's care about not having to pay for health insurance, which companies like away often cover. they care about 401k match. they care about bullshit perks like catered lunches, happy hours, subsidized gym, etc. |
|
Date: December 10th, 2019 4:02 PM Author: blue national lol they care about those because they are working for the equivalent of $4 per hour. those things are legit all they have.
it reminds me of a recent WSJ article on open offices. yes millennials care about all the bullshit office perks, but you know what they care about more? private offices. since they aren't getting those the perks are the only think making their offices tolerable. |

Date: December 10th, 2019 4:05 PM Author: violent tank skinny woman it's true. just pointing out that getting ANY corporate job with employee salary and benefits is a win these days. people here don't realize how many people are forced to do retail or uber/postmates. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4395609&forum_id=2#39243919) |
|
Date: December 10th, 2019 4:04 PM Author: Fear-inspiring hateful parlour why not say "reputable company" instead then? and why would you assume that you have more responsibilities than you would at black and decker, which is also a reputable company.
22 y/o's can stay on their parents' insurance if they want to and employee paid premiums for high deductible plans are dirt cheap at almost every big company (like $20 a pay check). 401K match also exists everywhere too. that's great though that they get free lunches that the CEO yells at them if they take too much time shitting out.
You just seem laughably out of touch with how the actual working world is and that's why you put companies like Away on a pedestal because they have a trendy ads, call themselves a startup and are in NYC. it's the same mentality that allowed them to con these chicks into working for near minimum wage in the first place (below when you factor in the hours). |

Date: December 10th, 2019 3:02 PM Author: Charismatic philosopher-king kitchen I couldn't make it through the article, which is poorly written -- most articles are these days. But what I gleaned from it is that women like to "play act" as grumpy bosses. It is like they read these stories about how Jobs and Bezos and whoever acted and said, "I can do that!" But Jobs acted that way because he was a legit brilliant psycho. These women act that way because that is how they think important business people act. Also, the 1,500 word email pleading with the team to work New Years Day is hilarious. Estrogen overload. |

Date: December 10th, 2019 3:10 PM Author: walnut laughsome bawdyhouse I'm not sure that millenial guy bosses at startups are any better. My takeaway is that millenials buy into these BS "disruptive" brands and are convinced that they are so much better than the competition and represent a cultural shift. Pull the veneer of marketing/advertising and you see some rinky-dink operation hawking the same shit product, losing money, and praying for a buyout from a well-established company sitting on so much money that it has no clue what to do with it.
