In today’s edition of ‘bad day in the office? Could be worse, you could work here …’ comes this, a boss who stuck this notice on the wall after he overheard staff talking about something other than – shock horror – work.

‘Came into work this morning to find this taped to the wall,’ said MrHatesThisWebsite who shared it over on Reddit.

‘Boss went on tirade against me and co-worker yesterday for taking to each other with no customers in the store.’

And it prompted no end of comments as you might imagine. We’ve read them all – well, quite a few of them – so you don’t have to, and these are the only 5 you need.

‘Your boss sounds like a lonely butthole who has no one to talk to, so when he saw you guys enjoying conversation he got pissy lmao.’

‘The fucking minion meme lol. You already know everything you need to know about this miserable motherfucker by them using one unironically.’

‘This is really shortsighted.

‘A happy work environment with sharing employees fosters a better experience for all concerned parties. And it’s free – so even better. Last, an employer is lucky if their staff gets along.

‘If there are long stretches of dead time, it’s either inefficiency from the manager or a part of the job. If it’s just part of the job, see above paragraph.

‘What a fucking idiot this manager is … ooof.’

‘We expect you to be miserable here. But don’t forget to smile!’

‘Wants co-workers to narc on each other too.’

To conclude …

‘Also boss, “We’re a family here …”’

And this.

‘Pull that down and throw it in the trash.’
