“For fun”
Yea, sure. Hey, you know what else is fun…
Union drives?
Organizing a union?
Guillotines and gallows.
And I'm sure it's just coincidence that everyone who said they were voting for Kamala has to work a double shift tomorrow.
Or fired for "other reasons"....
Overthrowing liberal capitalism and eating the rich to celebrate :3
Sounds fun, when do we start?
Employer BBQs?
I'm assuming the employer will be the food being served
'Toe salad anyone?
Did someone say foot tacos?
Secrets' in the sauce!
The Final Pizza Party.
Gulags?
I fucking hate these mother fuckers. They fund Daren Bailey and Bruce Rauner in Illinois. They were also behind the case where a downstate judge threatened to have JB Pritzker arrested for his Covid emergency orders and mask mandates. I will not be upset when they pass away.
They also fund a ton of shit in Ohio. Fuck these people. They are truly awful. The world would be better without them in it.
Their kids are carrying on making the world worse :(
Pritzker is one of the most down to earth wealthy people I've ever met. I didn't realize who I was dealing with until later on.
I guess republicans don't care about those laws since Orange Jesus will just pardon them, or so they hope. They believe they are on a just crusade... disgusting.
They're banking on SCOTUS continuing to gut regulatory agencies from having the authority to oversee corporations.
They want their fiefdoms.
I weep for you Americans.
That, and they know none of them will see effective penalties for voter intimidation and coercion. Maybe a fine. Maybe a year in jail. Maybe both.
In a just world, these donors would get a year for every employee who took the survey. Just to serve as a deterrent to other multi-millionaire bosses. More likely they'll weasel out of anything but lawyers fees and a statement on their website.
I hope the state goes after them.
The current DA is pretty fucking liberal as far as DAs go.
And they are a big reason why politics in Wisconsin are so stacked in favor of Republicans. They do a lot of business here and her husband is heir to the Schlitz beer fortune. They fund a lot of the Republican state representatives campaigns.
They are also the main reason why Wisconsin is still a prohibition state in regards to marijuana. Supposedly good Christians don't want cannabis competing with their much more destructive and addictive product.
The exact type of people Jesus was talking about in his eye of the needle parable
beer heir...vs marijuana...always follow the money
No such issue here in Indiana. Just stupid right-wing Christian bullshit.
We're surrounded on three sides by states making all of Indiana's potential tax money from cannabis sales.
"Anonymous"
"Log in"
Lmao. Nope. I've seen that one before. Didn't get me that time either.
I would also just lie to my boss anyway. But I also don't have a social media present that's tied to my real life/name.
If the parties were reversed, and it were a Democratic owner pushing the polling, Republican employees would have burned the place down already.
What? And lose the only source of income they can get? That boat, RV, and truck payment ain't gonna pay itself.
Oh boy, ACLU, sue their ass!
Did they just give out wrongful termination settlements as severance for all employees?
As somebody who has to deal with them every day, Fuck Uline.
The fuck are you purchasing from them when they're so overpriced? I don't get it.
I work in the packaging industry, and they have literally every size box, in any quantity, on demand. That being said, our clients purchase everything. We don't have much say in what vendors they choose.
Fun fact: I throw away (recycle) 2-5 full size Uline catalogs a day, even though it says on every packing slip CUSTOMER REQUESTS NO CATALOGS.
They have to constantly print and ship catalogs. How else will they explain why they underpay their workers so much?
Anonymous. Sign in to take it. "Requested".
My brother’s former employer (Jim Justice, current governor of West Virginia) once laid off nearly everyone in the mine he worked at. With their last paycheck was a letter, (paraphrasing) “If Barack Obama is elected, we may never return to work.”
I took it as, “Well, vote Republican or we aren’t opening the mines back up and you won’t have a job.”
Wasn’t long after Obama won that they called most of them back.
It’s crazy how often my brother and his coworkers had to chase their paychecks too. Justice is known locally for stiffing his workers, yet somehow he’s qualified to govern the state. Beats me man. I need to look at the election results and see how many people voted for him in towns where he employs people. It would shock me if he got a significant post job of the vote in those towns given his reputation.
Before he was governor I only ever heard his name in a negative light.
Man, that really sucks, because I really liked Uline shit.
I worked for them for a year as a contractor. That's one place I'm glad I don't work any more. Weird as fuck. The people there were normal but the policies and things felt cultish to me.
Could you elaborate, I'm very curious
So the main office, which I didn't visit personally, but some from my team did, was treated almost reverently. It was business professional dress code, even for technical staff, which seems really out of touch these days. Ties and blazer and suit pants. I feel like I remember casual work days were maybe once per quarter or less? And they were still business casual.
I heard things like you never, ever walked on the grass. Ever. Company affirmations and cheerleading. Things like that. And they would browbeat employees. Massive social pressure to conform and to make the company part of your identity.
Cult might be a little strong, but definitely creepy vibes.

Nope, "cult" is not too strong a word. Those are cult tactics.
Yeah, politics is....fun. Just another Republican caught in the act thinking everything is a joke. You're not a comedian, you're an asshole.
How did I know it'd be Uline?
I haste them for so many reasons.
Not least of which is the 5 phone-book-sized catalogs they mail me every week despite me never, ever using their services.
They'd make a bunch more money by just cutting back on their junk mail than through illegal voter intimidation.
Give them the respect they deserve. Lie to them and vote as you please.
Will these stats end up in a trump lawsuit trying to prove he won?
what losers, but the answer is telling them what they want to hear and then vote the way you want
