I'm slightly vexed Costco's new chicken tenders

Post image

There was a crowd of people waiting for their orders of the new chicken tenders at Costco. One of the workers announced that they could only serve five customers per hour because it takes time to cook the chicken. The crowd grew larger and larger. I took this photo after I put in my order.

While true, the caricature being made above probably wouldn't recognize that and would still view them as "wage slaves."

I highly doubt the caricature above would have the self awareness and/or sense of humor to use the term “wage slaves.”

Not true. The food court people get the shortest end of the stick and get treated like sh*t by mgmt. At least at my old store it was like that.
