    It’s a bullshit job though. Do you refuse to use elevators because they no longer have attendants? Having worked on a checkout at one time, it was always depressing. Plus there were other tasks that could be done and most people you deal with are awful.

    People making the same old quips also make the job that little bit more unbearable - “must be free”, urgh. Seriously you are not gods gift to comedy with these jokes, workers hear them 100 times every day and it is like some kind of compounding psychological damage each time.



  • I don’t think OP thinks they are actually equivalent though, it’s just a satirical comparison.

    Another comparison could be vegans. Environmental impact of meat consumption is huge and it also has the more obvious harm and ethical issues.

    Vegans get a lot of shit anyway, but imagine if every comment or post about meat, regardless of where it was or in what context got a barrage of abrasive comments from vegans?

    You will never convince someone of your cause if you’re a dick to them. It’s a huge internet trait to just go full meltdown at everything rather than talk with some you don’t agree with to aim for a better outcome.

    Nestle produces a lot of other things than sugar and fat. So much in fact that it’s actually hard to completely avoid them. The point is that they are a terrible company who does bad things, so you should boycott them.

    Also, people can indulge in sugar and fat if they want to.

    Little edit on that past point because some people don’t understand indulge doesn’t always mean over indulge, or they outright think I’m deranged because I might indulge in a chocolate bar as a treat in my otherwise varied and balanced diet and I suggested others might do the same if they want to.

    I understand too much fat and chocolate is bad, that doesn’t mean the world should never eat things that might be bad for them in moderation, relax.
