Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I can almost guarantee you they're lying.
I have several regulars that always praise me for always being polite and helpful and nice. What they don't know is that if I didn't act that way I'd be reprimanded or fired for "not having a good attitude at work"
You're not wrong that it's the companies fault I'm understaffed but it is definitely the customers fault that I'm overworked.
Like if you walk into a super busy restaurant that's clearly understaffed, why would you stay? Why would you not go somewhere else? It would be faster for you and make the employees day that much easier.
But people would rather stand in line for half an hour which just makes everything worse for everyone.
Sounds like you need a different job, you work in a awful environment that you recognize is a problem so why do you stay? I'm in the industry and if it's such a problem I would leave, it's not like kitchen jobs aren't always available
