Caught On Tape: What Happens When You Don't Pay Minimum Wage

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Presented with little comment aside to note that a robot burger-flipper would never react like this were he (or she) to be fired from their job at McDonalds...

 

As Breaking911 reports, McDonalds employee Lonnie Johnson can be seen behind the counter, screaming and knocking over restaurant supplies after being fired.

 

Definitely NSFW...

You're allowed to insult your own demographics when it's warranted.

 

I am allowed to insult anybody I choose, even if it is unwarranted.

 

I know that the First Amendment of the Constitution pisses you off. Too fucking bad.

 

Take your "Political Correctness" someplace else.

 

You can even call me a racist if you choose. Of course that is unwarranted. Those whom know me will be laughing at your idiocy if you choose to do so. But you do have Freedom of Speech.

 

And YOU WILL NOT even attempt to quash mine.

 

This homeless man, today, delivered TEN POUNDS of Plastic Shopping Bags. My bet is that I can dissove them in One Gallon of Gasoline. I wonder if I can get all Ten Pounds to adsorb. Do you think that I can?

 

Another homeless man, today, sold me four Cell Phones, with Lithium Ion Batteries, for $1 per phone.

 

Do you know what happens when you mix Lithium with Water, encased along with a can of Automotive Starting Fluid, in a closed cylinder surrounded by a jacket of Gasoline Soaked Plastic mixed with shredded steel?

 

Attempt to quash my freedom of speech and find out.

I wake up this morning. I open up my front door.

 

And here is this huge ass bag of plastic bags...all clean.

 

I have been buying up thrown out NSA tracking devices at a Buck apiece. I must have torn apart over 60 of them for the Gold inside. But I have collected these batteries. Tis a better deal than paying Home Depot $20 for eight of them.

 

Is God giving me a message?

Male?  Biologically it might have a penis, but it definitely lacks testosterone and reeks of androgyny or bull-dike-ery.

Actually in my personal experience the crappier the job, the easier it is to be fired from it.  And also in my personal experience, the higher ranked the college you go to, the easier it is to get good grades at it.

only kiddin Unix. Maybe it was the GMO fumes off of the burgers that did for him ( also by the look of him , probably in his teens, he must have eaten more burgers than his pay cheque ). Told the mrs a few month back that if she ever took the kid into Mc Craps again i'd kick her fat ass . . .; kill myself (politically correct and all that ). I mean just because she doesn't cook which is fair enough as she runs her own business, if she brought me in some decent mince from the butcher i'd be happy to make them a proper burger. If Mc Crap ever took him to court his defense could be toxic meat products rotted his brain and drove him temporarily insane.

That would be an optimal outcome. A few more likely ones...

If male will commit a felony (likely assault or robbery) then cost the taxpayer $40,000 per year to rehabilitate its simian ass.

If female will commit a bastardy (likely more than one) then cost the taxpayer $44,000 per year to feed, clothe, and house its simian ass.

Seems like most of the fast food places around here are staffed with Hispanic women.  They work hard and do a good job - even under lousy working conditions.  

I'll be presumptious and say most are likely illegals and willing to take whatever they get and tolerate more than they should have to tolerate from crappy bosses.

HOWEVER I've also noticed that you've now gotten a preponderance of Hispanics in construction jobs and other fields as well.  I asked a contractor doing work locally about this and he was blunt - 'They work hard, are reliable and do a good job.'   I was watching the work he was doing and saw the one white kid he had for a day doing far less work than the others on the job while the one black kid didn't last the day.  He seemed to feel 'put upon' and quit.

Thirty years back I was working for an Architectural firm - the junior person there.  It was my job to go out and get lunches for the partners - I was lowest on the totem pole.  I wasn't there one afternoon, running some other errand and they asked the newest draftsman ther to go - the NEXT least senior. They guy was black and had a fit..... made it all about race.  Newsflash.  It wasn't.  And NOBODYthere thought he had a leg to stand on.  He was the least senior person there - so the task went to him.  Before he was there a female Polish draftsman (with far more experioence than he had) went if I wasn't there.  SHE never complained or thought it was 'inappropriate' or 'sexist'.

Later in life I worked in a manufacturing plant where one department was staffed with women - minimally skilled and not all that well paid. Ujnion jobs with seniority determining assignments and such.  Lots of older white women, with middle aged Hispanic and black women with younger blacks and Hispanics.  It wasn't a great job but not bad for unskilled labor and most made the best of it all.  Never any problems with the older and middle aged women or even the young Hispanic women.  They did their job.  But more than a fewof the younger black women had real attitudes.   They weren't treated any different than anyone else but were really 'touchy' about how they were treated and demanding Better treatment than the others got....   That didn't go over well with older women - especially the older black women who'd 'paid their dues'.

 

Some people are WAAAY to 'sensitive' and take EVERYTHING as an insult - and some of the worst offenders are simply the WORST workers looking for ANY excuse and unwilling to acknowledge their own behavior.

There was an interesting study a while back analyzing violense in US cities and finding a direct correlation to the proportion of the population with Southern roots.  The whole culture of 'respect' and 'disrespect' and inslts - imagined or real - was responsible.  Southern society was hierarchial - with plantation life dominating and not a huge amount of interaction with others outside your own local world.  The well off regularly challenged others to duels over 'honor' while the lower classes (white or black) emulated their 'betters' in being quick to violence over perceived 'disrespect'.  Sort of a never-ending issue as you could challenge someone of 'equal' status to a fight and expect aresponse but a lower status person had no real recoursse against a 'better' who treated them badly.....   e.g. It's OK to piss on those below you without repurcussions building up real anger at the lower levels ready to burst out when given the slightest provocation.  

Without the old 'status system' in place, the culture of 'respect/disrespect' remains - ready to blow up at anyone now.

In contrast those in the more mercantile north - having to deal with others on a regular basis in business found such attitudes counter-productive.  You ignored real or perceived slights when you had to deal with others.

I just feel kind of bad watching this.  I have been to McDonald's a few times recently  -  the first time in years  -  going through the drivethrough and getting a burger with no meat (sometimes a Big Mac, sometimes cheeseburgers) and then putting veggie burgers on them in the car.  This is the Palo Alto McDonald's in Silicon Valley.

So far there have been three different people at the drivethrough window  -  a skinny young black guy who was REALLY nice, an Indian girl who was really nice, and an Asian (Chinese I think) girl who was really nice.  The middle aged lady (background unclear) who handed the food out seemed slightly glum at first, but when I thanked her she enthusiastically thanked me back; I think someone had just been mean to her.

Life is pretty hard out there in the work world these days; I couldn't believe the quality of the employees.  I would hire them in a heartbeat.  Yeah, this guy is a screw-up, but that just seems a shame; there are apparently a lot of desperate people who will take his place.

Employee Lonnie Johson said he was going to "parlay his fame into getting a job on television." .When I worked way back when at the  local Hamburger King I was paid about $6.00 an hour in today's money. None of us expected to stay there for a great deal of time. Also none of us thought we  could raise a family on that kind of money as I heard one Micky Dees worker request. He thought he should be paid enough to have an apartment and a car. The soviets used to promise a crummy apartment but NEVER a.car - not even a Trabant.
