personal tangent to the whole "office workers as the face of work stress" thing
maybe i'm just a bit salty about this whole thing
bc that toxic-gamer-as-fuck former friend i blocked everywhere and cut out of my life recently
worked in an office at one of the really big evil tech companies and was an enormous fucking asshole about it
like just so goddamn privileged, making a shitload and yet always being an asshole about money. like...
lemme tell the perfect anecdote to illustrate
one time they ordered food right. and the place they ordered from forgot their drink
so they were like "i'm gonna put in a complaint and get my money back"
and me and another friend were like "NO DON'T you'll just make their lives more miserable, trust us we've been there"
and they were like "WELL I'M ENTITLED TO MY DRINK"
so we said "do you care about that drink more than the wellbeing of the person who made your food?"
and they were like "WELL... IF THEY CAN'T MAKE MY FOOD RIGHT..."

@vantablack wait do y'all not just call "hey you forgot my drink" and they send it out?

@noiob nopesies
when i worked at jack in the box
delivery orders were like done through a tablet computer
and once they were done they were done
if you got negative feedback through the app for forgetting something or giving out the wrong order you'd just get punished later
