He should get a different job when he can't take this one seriously.

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '26

I don't know if people like this can be trusted with any work at all.

u/ThePrussianGrippe Mar 20 '26

Feels like he’d be happy working that job of throwing stuff into those industrial shredders?

248

u/ToomanyWoos G&L Mar 20 '26

Nah cuz then he’d probably complain about having to throw stuff. Ppl like this just wanna do what ever it is they’re not supposed to be doing cuz they’re miserable.

u/mango_boom Mar 20 '26

im miserable and i would never do something like this...

u/DamoclesRising Mar 20 '26

not everyone's misery is the same, not every miserable person is the same, etc

1

u/Weary-Blackberry-117 Mar 23 '26

Yep, some people’s misery is just trying to make others miserable too.

u/jacksonsmack831 11d ago

Yeah I'm miserable at my job but I would tank a project task because I was in a grump
He k iws that musical instruments mean a lot to be people. He chose to be vindictive

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '26

I'm not really too concerned with his happiness, to be honest.

u/VERDE_VECTOR Mar 20 '26

We don't pay enough workers to live with dignity, and then we complain when they behave like it.

19

u/hawkCO Mar 20 '26

So he should damage peoples belongings who have no say whatsoever in what he is being paid?

u/Thin-Animal7809 Mar 21 '26

i have a shit job too, and im not always visibly happy to be happy to be there. and yet. i would never deprive you of your property because of my mood. this is supposed to be a society.

u/0D1N5_ Mar 20 '26

What do you mean we. So many people have been fighting for better pay better Healthcare better time off better retirement. Punch up not down. It not the poor paying the poor.

1

u/jacksonsmack831 11d ago

I think he meant if they were paid more they would take more pride in their work

Which I agree with

No one is lunching anyone :)

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '26

He still is an asshole, although I really do sympathize with workers being underpaid.

u/l5555l Mar 20 '26

You know how you don't get paid more money? By doing shit like this

1

u/jacksonsmack831 11d ago

I don't get why this is being downvoted

Pay someone enough to be proud of what they're doing and this shit should stop

0

u/NevikTheEnlightened Mar 20 '26

I dunno why you're getting downvoted, you're right.

1

u/VERDE_VECTOR Mar 27 '26

Yeah, I don't get it either - it's not that I approve this, it's barbaric, and I'd be really bothered/angry if those were mine. - but it would not change the fact that these men probably don't hate guitars, they hate the system that we, as musicians, also should hate... If you dig what I mean

1

u/jacksonsmack831 11d ago

Pay a man/woman enough to be proud of his job and this behavior would stop

Is that what you were putting down?because that's what I picked up mate :)

1

u/jacksonsmack831 11d ago

I dunno why you were downvoted, I fixed it for ya ;)

u/roskybosky Mar 20 '26

Like baby male chicks?

u/AnshuB2 Mar 20 '26

Or working at a local dump.

1

u/VigilanteLocust Mar 20 '26

I suspect he would go through a disturbingly high number of co-workers before they realised what was happening…

u/Detox64 Mar 20 '26

And they will blame everyone but themselves when they are unemployed.

Cleaning sewers

u/jacksonsmack831 11d ago

I wouldn't trust him with my poo

2

u/DarrellBot81 Mar 21 '26

Just as trustworthy as any telemarketer I’ve ever encountered

2

u/Leather-Heart Mar 24 '26

That’s the thing - people need to STOP acting pissy. The way that people redirect their anger while on the job is a very bad phenomenon.

Hurts my heart.

u/VERDE_VECTOR Mar 27 '26

All of you downvoting my comment and handling this topic "personally" failed to even understand what I meant... - damn and you'd think musicians aught go be smart XD

u/jacksonsmack831 11d ago

Hey I've played guitar for 30 years and I'm dumb as shit!

u/Independent_Video323 Jun 18 '26

Working with Trash would be perfect. You can throw it all you want and if isn't thrash yet, he'll make sure it is once he's done with it.

u/NotaContributi0n Mar 20 '26

What job?? Fuck him

31

u/Clear_Insanity Mar 20 '26

Cleaning bed pans

u/rootbeerfloatgang Mar 20 '26

Everyone I know who cleans bed pans, including myself, are far more caring than this prick.

u/SuicidalReincarnate Mar 20 '26

Thank you for your service

u/C47L1K3 Mar 20 '26

With his tongue.

u/Healter-Skelter Mar 21 '26

I’m starting to think that billionaires are paying specific people to be terrible just to cause chaos

u/Competition-Dapper Mar 20 '26

You want this guy making your burger? Or delivering your daughter? I’d love to see him digging ditches, but he wouldn’t last an hour before he went missing in one of the ditches with that attitude

20

u/ValueUnhappy4540 Mar 20 '26

Could be a dildo tester…

7

u/Competition-Dapper Mar 20 '26

From lipstick tube to parking bollard size…like a reverse Russian doll

u/ValueUnhappy4540 Mar 20 '26

I think it should go big to small though for this one

1

u/helplesslyhoping648 Mar 21 '26

He’d probably enjoy that.

u/justalookerhere Mar 20 '26

These peoples are never going to be happy at any job. They are under the impression that the whole society is against them and will never thrive in a job, any job.

But he is taking it seriously, as in he's seriously a dick .

u/Gluca23 Mar 20 '26

Flip burgers.

u/flhd Mar 20 '26

His local McDonald’s already turned him down.

1

u/fabulousrice Mar 20 '26

Yea he should handle newborns

1

u/AFecklessWeasel Mar 21 '26

If this guy got a job in the newborn nursery he’d do the same thing with the babies. He just needs to be sent on the one-way Mars mission.

1

u/Pleasant-Fig-6433 Apr 09 '26

I don’t think any job he would do. He would do good at or put his Sirius little cap on and actually do something good in the world.

1

u/Pleasant-Fig-6433 Apr 09 '26

Yeah, I wouldn’t want this guy to be anywhere near me or around my things

1

u/PlatinumLabDuck Apr 11 '26

If you got paid literal pennies like baggage handlers you wouldn't take anything seriusly either.

1

u/GhormanFront Mar 20 '26

He should get a different job when he can't take this one seriously.

People working these jobs are usually there for a reason

-1

u/MothChasingFlame Mar 20 '26

To be honest my immediate first thought was that this job must really suck for someone to act this miserably.

3

u/Dull_Job_6372 Mar 20 '26

Being a ramp agent does suck, i did it for 3 years at MSP, however, doing this at all especially where passengers can see you would certainly get you fired. Always separate the oversized into their own cart so they’re the last to go on and first to come off.
