It amazes me that people who can’t distinguish between ‘your’ and ‘you’re’ are allowed to manage people
Hey look, a giant sign telling you to unionize
FTFY
Hey Jenny,
Why does a million dollar company employ someone who can’t spell?
Kind regards,
pyre
PS - Suck my entire dick.
If you want me to show up on Christmas, just pay me enough to show up on Christmas. It’s really that simple, you’re a million dollar company, act like it.
Hot take: a million dollar company is a small company. The owner better stop acting like his company is something exceptional
Never mind that surely a big company doesn’t explode the second someone calls in sick. The whole sign makes no sense at all.
It kinda does since hiring enough staff to mitigate shortages cuts into their profits.
I’d say it’s a lukewarm take at best. A million dollar company is something like a small (<10 people) consulting agency or a couple hot dog stands in a relatively busy area. So like you said, nothing exceptional.
Leaving out self-employed individuals and 2-3 person hair salons and the like, a million dollar revenue is not really something difficult to reach. Especially if you include things like retail, where moving any inventory increases revenue a lot. Even for companies outside retail, when keeping in mind how much one is able to bill for things like trades in the US, revenue increases quite quickly.
My sick?
Yes your sick. If your sick is sick buy it some medicine
i mean you’d think a million dollar company would be able to afford time off for christmas
I dunno. $1M sounds like a really small company….

Your dad should run for President. I real and decent human would be a great change. I’m so sick of the soul-less cunts they keep offering up…
It’s ridiculous that study after study shows that treating your employees well always nets a return on the investment, but companies still pull this shit.
The irony of that last statement.
someone is overly excited for a million dollar company
Hey Jenny, go fuck yourself.
a company worth 1 million is basically a 1-5 person office.
One of them ain’t much of a person
“we are a million dollar company, you have no choice but to come in and make your $90 on this day”
Ya ok. If we are a million dollar company then where’s my share?
Fuck that mentality.
I worked in a service center for a big company back in my 20’s, they would factor in callouts to their staffing plan, and use historical data for it. They also paid 2.5x time on holidays like the 25/26 December. That’s what a million dollar company should look like…if you want to make sure there’s coverage, you pay for it.
A million dollar company is relatively a small fry. That’s what an average auto repair shop can make in a year in revenue. Small companies are way more likely to break labor laws and treat their employees like shit.
Fair enough. The company I’m talking about did a million a month in payroll.
Also, they’re a million dolar company. Learn when a comma doesnt cut it, and you need to upgrade to a colon, semicolon or a dash.
My Starbucks tried to do this shit a decade ago. I came in with the flu and made sure to let everyone know that the manager just wouldn’t accept me calling in.
Did it spread like crazy? I had an old job where my boss was like that. Well until the whole company caught covid at the same time. Instead of being down 1 or 3 people, we had to shut down for a week. We lost so much money and some customers.
Yeah it wasn’t great but there was obviously no policy change. During my four year tenure there, we went through six managers if that says anything.
This only happens in America. You guys have it bad over there.
Which America out of the two?
out of the four? There’s Northern Northern (Canada), Middle Northern (shithole), and Southern Northern (Mexico). And of course all of Southern.
Lol all colonies are shit over here
It’s colonies all the way down
The map says North America and South America, any other subdivisions are arbitrary.
All subdivisions are arbitrary.
Central America?
I dont believe in that separation. Its all just people. Politics try to make you guys two sides fighting eachother but you have much more incommon with eachother than the owner class.
They said that to point out you said ‘America’ when there’s a north America and a south America and your statement is only true for one country within one of those. We all know what you meant, but let’s stop playing into US exceptionalism by using the name for two whole continents as a synonym for it.
I don’t really like anyone else assuming what I meant, but in this case yes, exactly that.
America is never associated with South America. It always means North America. If someone means South America, they always say so.
Yes, because of US exceptionalism. That’s a bad thing, and we can try to not play into it.
Im ok thanks, but you go ahead. :)
Only thanks to idiots and narcissists are so many using America synonymously with todays shithole totalitarian regime between Canada and Mexico. As the preposter said, let’s not play into that.
Do what you want. :)

So, act like a million 💸 company and cover your employees’ babysitting and taxi expenses. Also hire enough people.
A million dollar company could just be a warehouse and 10 employees. I don’t know why they are acting like it’s a lot.
Where I live, a million dollars doesn’t buy you a house. So I don’t know what this bitch is talking about.
We currently own two modest houses until the spring when we will sell one, but right now that makes me a million dollar company.
A “million dollar company” could be pulled directly out of their ass. Jenny’s illiteracy doesn’t inspire confidence in her accounting skills.
Assuming they mean revenue, i did more than that working out of an RV one year.
Walter?
Trailer trash thinks it’s a lot.
I’ve seen monthly AWS bills bigger than that, every time I look at the damn dashboard.
They can’t afford to check their grammar. You think they can afford to give their employees benefits? You expect the poor CEO to take a pay cut to pay for all of this? You’ll just have to go to poor Timmy Executive and tell him he’s not getting that second yacht for Christmas this year.
Spring for the spell check function for management.
Wouldn’t do much good in this case - “your” and “lets” are actual words.
Word processors also have grammar checkers. Hell, my phone gave me a blue line while I typed this comment.
and you need to know grammar to use a grammar checker. My paper in uni I decided to just hit corels gramatik and accept all changes (did it a few times just for funsies) that paper went from above acceptable to an atrocious mess in no time
Yes, except “hire enough people”. You can’t staff enough to cover 4 out of 8 employees off from a combination of sick, bereavement, and vacation.
It happens. All you can do is prioritize tasks, make it work the best you can with the resources you have, and manage expectations.
If the work can’t be rescheduled, and isn’t worth paying someone OT to cover, well, then, it’s not worth doing.
Also have some professionalism and make sure your management knows how to spell
Maybe she sincerely means ‘million dollar company’, a company too dirt poor to pay to have adequate coverage…
