sorry everyone but we don't have enough employees to run the shop without anyone going over 25 hours, and if we do that we have to give you health insurance. It's all the fault of those pesky socialists and their unemployment pay.

Haha, as if that's how that works- if you're below a certain amount of workers at your location, you don't have to abide by the rule, at least in GA. And you can treat several franchise locations as several different businesses! So you can have hold 7 franchises of the same company, and still not give anyone benefits! That's what my old boss did!

has a small business, but makes sure to plaster some crosses on or near my business's logo, so you know I'm honest and definitely wouldn't rip you off. Also, I did some tours in Iraq

I'm gonna need you to work at least 18 hours a day, six days a week, but also be available at all hours of the night via email for our customers, but I will micromanage every word you say or type, down to telling you exactly what to say via email, because I think you are stupid despite the fact that you have grown the business 450% in the year and a half you've been here. Also you make sub-$20 an hour, you only get paid for 6 hours of work a day, and you can't have any benefits. You see, we're a family here.

I'm going to spend six-figures buying into a tutoring franchise called Tutor Doctor. I'm going to demand that our clients pay for 48 hours worth of tutoring up front when they sign on. I'm going to charge $60/hour from the client, but only pay my employees $18/hour. Then I'm going to loving run out of money and tell my tutors I can only pay them in Amazon gift cards. Then I'm going to go out of loving business and run away with all that money, without the clients getting the hours of tutoring I made them pre-pay for. "Where do you people get off being mad at me I'm a business owner! Get your hands off me! You're going to kill me over this? HOW DARE YOU I DEMAND TO SPEAK WI-" *chop*

1 year ago: "Business has been struggling and we need some fresh blood to turn things around. These people are family to me and I'll be damned if I see this place go under!" 6 months ago: "I know you've done a lot to turn this business around, and we're in the best shape we've ever been, but we can't keep paying you the rates we have. You're taking a pay cut. It's just business." 5 months ago: "You're leaving us for our competitor? No, we won't match that offer. You don't deserve it! You don't do this to family!" 2 weeks ago: "Hey, I know we've had some disagreements in the past, but you know we've always thought of you as family..."

Goth Odell Beckham posted:In honor of summer let us celebrate Small Business Tyrant: Beach Town Edition* lol this is pretty accurate. I have one to add: the single allowed concession stand on a huge Cape Cod beach. Some are run by a nonprofit that maintains the beach, fair enough. Others are run by a private individual who presumably knows what dune the mayor buried his ex-wife. Bring your own food unless you like paying $12 for a lukewarm hotdog.

Yes, my wife does the same job as you. No, you can't know how much money she makes, that's a HIPAA violation. No, she's not getting more vacation days than you, you're just imagining that. Now if you'll excuse us, we're going on a 3 week long vacation.

Well if I knew that then I wouldn't be looking for it would it? I'm.. I'm not yelling. Nevermind, I found it. Yeah.. Yeah, cat batted it under the couch again. Alright well I've got to open up, I'll see you tonight. Have a good day. I'm sorry I yelled at you. Love you. Bye!

God drat lazy kids! All they want is a hand out! I've never taken a hand out! I've worked hard to build up my business!!! *was given money by their rich parents to start the business and every time he needs money he goes to them to get more money, uses tax loopholes and government grants with creative accounting* You want vacation? Okay but don't think you have a job when you get home! I cannot believe you want to get paid to not be here. You took that day off last year, why do you need vacation? You had the flu? So what, you were probably just faking it, even if you were, a little cough isn't going to kill you, and customers won't mind. You know *insert random famous rich person* never stopped working. After the workers went home they'd go down to the factory floor and keep operating the machines, he didn't need weekends or meals or sleep, just work. Why can you be like *person who was nothing like that or didn't exist*. I'm sorry, i know you've worked here for 5 years and are the only one who knows how to receive and add things to inventory but i cannot afford to give you more that minimum wage. Now, I'll see you all in 2 months, i rented a yacht in Nice for my wifes 40th birthday, I'll see you when i get back!
