that money would absolutely NOT be going to raises
And if it was it would be like 3 cents each.
Also, they would have given the raises already. Were they just waiting to make sure people weren’t doing whip it’s in freezer before giving the raises?
It sure as hell shouldn't. Punishing all of your employees because someone is doing nitrous in the walk-in?
I worked in more than one kitchen where half the whipped cream cans didn't dispense.
If it was going to be, it would have already.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but a camera is like $200. It sounds like the raises would’ve been shit anyway. Everyone should quit.
You can get a good wifi camera for like $50
There were never any raises. This is just guilt-tripping bullshit.
Miranda knows that she can continue to pocket a majority of the restaurant profits if she can get the staff to blame each other for their discontentments.
There is a good chance there was no whip-it (bop-it!) person either. This can read as someone promising raises and having another agenda, tying them together, and wham bam here's your letter.
To me it isn't just slashing the promise of a raise, it's creating a reason to install cameras because someone wants eyes where they didn't have them before. Assuming this post is true, I smell an update down the road.
TIL Miranda is doing whip-its in the walk-in and trying to blame her staff.
Classic Miranda rights
What's a "walk in"? What's a "whip it"?
I'm guessing walk-in fridge at a restaurant. No idea what a whip-it is.
whipped cream nitrous oxide cartridge. Breathing in the gas gets you real fucked up. Never done it, because I like my brain cells.
Notable for being a class of substances that freaks out Erowid, a website that otherwise thinks that just about every drug can be used safely if you know what you're doing. If it freaks them out it freaks me out.
It's literally used by dentists and is more commonly known as laughing gas.
It's considered a low risk anesthesia. The only talk on erowid is that it can cause temporary hypoxia by displacing oxygen in the lungs which might lead to some minor death of brain cells just the same as inhaling helium to make your voice sound funny.
There is some reports of very long exposure having some effects on neurons, but that was inconclusive and more around anesthesiologists working in poorly ventilated rooms being exposed daily.
As long as you aren't putting yourself in a place where if you inhale too much and pass out that you are still breathing n2o you should be fine. And so long as you aren't inhaling directly out of a freshly cracked can where it comes out at literally freezing temperatures.
Most people will use a cracker that fills a balloon and is mostly safe. Just do so in a well ventilated location.

It's way different from other inhalants like those found in aerosol cans like air dusters.
uh oh a dollar is missing from the register there goes your raises for the next 20 years
A high end camera and install might cost $1,000. Not exactly enough to cover “raises.” More than likely it will be a $100 shitty wi-fi camera. This is such bull shit.
A security camera: $100
$1/hr for 15 people: $31k A YEAR. Those two things are not even in the same realm.
Those raises were never happening.
Any time someone goes, "I would have done X, if only..."
No they fucking wouldn't. Because they're a shitty manipulative human.
Yeah that security camera is an excuse. They only cost a few hundred bucks.
Miranda, you work in a kitchen if your staff isn't high (with Kevlar gloves) you're probably mismanaging that kitchen.
A) There is no fucking way that camera costs so much that no one can get raises. B) It you're doing whip-its at work, you should probably be fired. C) If you can't figure out which one of your employees is high on whip-its, you probably shouldn't be running a business.
"You were each TOTALLY going to get an extra $.67 a month, if not for fucking Darren over here who forgot to thank me for his employment this morning in the daily thank you ceremony. You guys don't get it... you think this is easy? Anyways I'm also doubling all your rents."
"Disregard that last part, forgot you weren't my ungrateful tenants, because of course I'm also a landlord."
that $0.01 pay rise could've kept someone off the streets!
no one was ever going to get a raise in that workplace. That's just something they hold over your head.
No way is any job with a walk-in even getting raises in the first place haha
Miranda was never going to give them raises
It's not as though those raises would have happened if no one was getting high. This is just a convenient excuse for what wasn't going to happen anyway.
What makes me believe this is real is because the sign is using a fucken name tag magnet
Last time I worked fast food, my manager was a cokehead and didn't care if anyone took extra free food for their lunch break. She also let people place orders near end of shift as "oops" meals and take home whatever food they wanted so long as it wasn't insane (anything up to like $15-$20 was fine, mind you this was like 2001 so that was a decent amount at McD's).
Times have changed.
Miranda needs to learn what a fucking comma is. She's so close to having a well written, angry note.
If you can't tell who is doing them in the walk in, is it really a problem?
Yeah that $15 split into everyones pay packet is sure gonna be missed
They already have a camera system and it shouldn't cost them more than 500 bucks to have even the scamiest security contractor add a camera to a existing system. There go all those raises boys
Miranda seems like a proper Berkeley Hunt.
Miranda.. sweetie.. this is a restaurant..if whip its are the worst thing going on, count your blessings. CHERISH IT MIRANDA, YOU HAVE TO CHERISH IT
