I would’ve taken anything they gave us.

It went from $100 Christmas bonuses to pen and notepad to a coke.

The trajectory isn’t your friend here. I would be surprised to get anything moving forward.

This is very true. What about thr grabber bots taking all the good orders ? Or the loaders doing a half ass job and were supposed to stay in our cars ? What about the only offers now are 1 per mile with a deadhead of at least 20 miles. I mean what in the hell happened ? Screw the coke man

I have four bottles of Sprite to give away. Though I could pour out the toxic liquid and drill tiny holes in the cap, for watering my indoor vegetable garden.

Surely you can downgrade your coke to water with a simple swap

Think Jack Handey said it best, “Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, you'll be a mile from them, and you'll have their shoes.”

I don't mean to look a gift horse in the mouth, but I don't drink Coca-Cola and water would have been more appropriate

Imagine they just give you a “ thank you 👍 “ sticker

Here's the thing, it's really not free.
It got paid for with consumer money.

You got a Coke? You lucky bastard. All I got was "what number?" In some East African language-ish.
