What happens if the person running the barn you're shoveling horse shit out of turns out to be an asshole boss too?

This, so much. The job market is so good right now, why would anyone stick with a crappy job just because it lets them afford to "eat" and "pay rent"? Idiots.

If it was the mid 1990's I would agree with you, but most people need to work - and the unemployment rates are ridiculously high. Many people have others that depend on them and cannot afford to pass up bonuses due to poor performance or getting fired.

I bet you're an unpopular boss yourself.

Think this through once more. Idiot boss's bad behavior is idiot boss's fault (obviously). The way an underling REACTS to or addresses the mistreatment is their responsibility, yes, but of course that's different. Even a smart, proactive employee may have to "accept" crappy supervision for some period of time, in…

I fix everything in my house with one of those prepackaged tool kits I got at Home Depot.

Why do pro-gun people always assume they have the only gun in a situation like this?

This happens to me ALL THE TIME at work.

Adultism (prejudice and discrimination against young people) is one of the few acceptable forms of oppression and discrimination left in our society and I'm seeing it rampant here. Knocking/mocking this person's experience ("it's only been two years, pah!"), 'oldsplaining' (like mansplaining, but when an older person…

As someone who has had a job almost identical to that, she's talking about the pageview machine, not bashing her boss. I watched this and immediately empathized, though I couldn't imagine making the video and posting it myself.

god i hope this is real. and i hope that she doesn't get shat on for doing this, and i hope that ONE DAY MY LITTLE CHILDREN WILL WORK IN A JOB NOT DEFINED BY THE SHITTY ECONOMY BUT BY THE PASSION IN THEIR HEARTS (i mean me. i'm talking about me.)

haha, I knew I was hitting a soft spot in the trailler park.

Don't underestimate the redneck mouthbreather element in Michigan. Especially in the past ten years since huge numbers of educated, successful people have fled the state, Michigan has a big time redneck factor.

Nah, I'm in Texas... If this happened here Taylor would have been immediate shot 12 times by 12 different bystanders upon unjustly pulling his firearm on Pullum.

How incredibly unfortunate...but based solely on their last actions in this world; they're a couple of jerks. While I wouldn't wish murder upon anyone, the world might be a little bit better off with two less people that would shoot each other because of a traffic altercation.

The town wasn't destroyed for what two people did, it was destroyed for what so many refused to do.

“Yeah, they’re privileged. But they’ve earned it.”

"Adults in Steubenville are sick of thinking about how she feels."

Yes exactly! "Well sure she got raped, but who knew fingering someone who was passed out was rape. I mean obvs it wasn't rape rape. People need to realize it was just finger rape and stop being mad at us. It would be different if she had actually gotten pooped on!"

It's terrible that innocent people were dragged into this, especially the children of the coach. But dammit, they're still treating their high school athletes like demigods. That's a big, big problem, and it IS the fault of the school and greater community.
