I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Why on earth would you then pay anyone anything for any work :confused: You're the one who should pay, because you're taking up employer space, using employer tools and facilities, breathing employer air, and sweating water owned by Nestle.

Phaiston have long avoided the tightly competetive defence sector, but the IRDA Act 2052 has given us the freedom we need to bring out something really special.

That doesn't make a lick of sense. If you're quitting McDonald's, it's probably because the pay is poo poo with no benefits, the hours are terrible, and the customers are terrible. Management cannot and will not change any of these things. So either you're giving your two weeks notice and they're trying to make you jump through the hoops of talking to management about it or you get fed up one day and quit on the spot and they tell you that you... can't? What are they going to do if you leave? Fire you?

The goal isn't to be effective. The goal is to let the cult-of-productivity boomers in middle management justify their continued existence and wages to other cult-of-productivity boomers in the C-suite, and to virtue-signal to customers who are driven primarily by spite towards service industry workers that yes, we really do crack the whip over these poor suckers, look how much human suffering you can indirectly inflict upon our staff by buying our product.

The workers' Nestlé water can be reclaimed using an invention called a "still-suit", if you'll permit me to demonstrate...

Yes. Getting fired is worse on your resume than quitting. If they refuse to say you quit then you can't use them as a reference, so you either have a gap in your employment history or a reference that says they fired you, and I'm sure they won't explain that you were fired for not wanting to work there anymore.

To be fair I get that, I was a meek pushover at my first couple jobs. My first job was at 14 or 15 (Idaho sad lol). You better believe I didn't know poo poo at that age and that was definitely abused.

Funnily enough, that's exactly what my father in law used to say. He absolutely will not eat sausages, hot dogs or otherwise. My ex-wife would only eat a particular brand, and me... gently caress it. Sustenance is sustenance.

I don't think the McDonalds sign is meant to say they won't allow you to quit but that they're going to do what they can to see if there's anything they can do to keep you there. It is a pretty aggressive way to express that though.
