One is the theory of stealing from the working class, and the other is the practical application. It’s like the evil version of science vs engineering.

I’ll get started on that as soon as I find an economics program that isn’t a corporate echo chamber.

Remember how I said suckers perceive them as different because they believe the marketing? You just proved my point for me.

“Price increases aren’t he same as discounts”

They didn’t clarify that they were planning to offer late afternoon discounts because they weren’t - the “dynamic pricing” they were referring to using their digital menus that can adjust prices in real time really only works if it increases pricing during busy periods. As you mentioned, nobody is checking an app to…

Careful you’ll get a bunch of weirdos rushing to defend Wendy’s saying “EVER HEARD OF HAPPY HOUR??”

It’s just a Baconator Michael, what could it cost, $20?

This is the kind of stuff 20 year old business majors with no life experience come up with. “What if we make Wendy’s the Uber of fast food?”

Just more evidence of how far removed executives are from regular people.

Our economy is dependent on the myth of unlimited growth.

I just talked to an executive at a very smart tech company that decided not to lay off their entire talent staff during the tech recession, but instead to re-train them to do other critical tasks.  This way, they get people who know the company doing important stuff, and the talent staff will be in place to snatch the…

100%. I work for a fortune 500, and it is the same cycle every time. Our economy is dependent on the myth of unlimited growth. When you lay off all of these people, it frees up reporting cash for shareholders to see. Which means when they actually do have growth, they will need to re-hire anyways and have massive…

Over 6000 layoffs in the video game industry, but how many people have been laid off in the Tech Industry altogether from 2023-present? The fact that companies can just throw their workers away while claiming record profits is ugly capitalism at its finest, but the sheer unchecked accountability for companies to…

Funny, I was thinking “Because Elon wants it” was a great reason to not vote for Republicans this November. 

“It’s a fold, it’s a draw, it’s a pass, it’s a win. It’s the mix, it’s the match, it’s the meter, it’s the method. It’s the step, it’s the stance, it’s the system, it’s the stand. It’s the shift, it’s the shape, it’s the set, it’s the sort. It’s a sum, it’s a round, it’s a range, it’s a rate. It’s the main, it’s the…

This article is sarcastic right? Rogue One needed massive re-shoots and Edward's was widely understood to be a good idea guy who filmed a ton of alternative shots that got thrown away in the edit. As far as I understand it that movie was kind of saved in spite of him in the editing room. Given the abysmal state of the…

I am, against my better judgement, starting to root for this film! I really hope it is a crazy madcap sort of movie that just lets itself be FUN.

If you can’t read between the lines of this story about a shitty celebrity coming into an unethically low-paying job and complaining about the location’s low sales numbers on his trash merch, then I’d argue that you’re more likely the person who’s never done retail work. That wouldn’t be fun for anyone but the largest…

Every single person he annoyed had something better to do than help him make more money.  Fuck this guy.

A good store manager would trespass this clown instead of allowing him to harass their employees.
