what i suspect is that these metrics are for evaluating the entire store, and putting the blame onto cashiers for the negative evaluation happens indirectly and after the fact (as the manager tries to punish his subordinates for the things that were his fault) i would be extremely surprised if any employees who aren't in charge of stocking/ordering are directly and explicitly blamed for inventory shortages by QA we're all friends here, but in the rest of the world, you won't be able to just smack a piece of paper phoenix wright style and expect to win this one

Because absolutely people will just point at a sheet of paper taped to the wall in the break room and say, “welp the paper says this is your responsibility, it’s out of my hands!” About poo poo the employees have no control over

That sign does seem to be written for a target audience of managers (hence instructions like HOLD YOURSELF & THE TEAM ACCOUNTABLE), but I'd imagine it's like, the lowest level of manager that's just someone who's worked there long enough that they get a fancier shirt or w/e

Much has been talked about how the Boomers were never really radical, which has made me think lately that the conservatism of the Silents and Greatest generation is probably exaggerated too, at least amongst the working classes. Somebody here posted a survey that showed that opposition to Vietnam was disproportionately skewed towards older people which goes against the Hollywood interpretation of that era.

Most boomers didn't go to college though. And alot of them were fist thumping troop supporters who voted for Nixon. I guess my point is that generational politics is bullshit then and now.

I guess my point is that generational politics is bullshit then and now. college had different consequences during the draft. if you dropped out, you were going to Vietnam. even the volunteers did so in the context of enlisting to avoid the infantry. “supporting the troops” didn’t really exist yet, it was a post facto response to the anti war movement. I agree that generational politics is in general bullshit, but at that moment, it served as a marker of the divide between white young people who supported the civil rights movement and their parents who did not.
