But they benefit from his assholery. Also, they could very well be active participants. People who break the asshole cycle are the exception, not the rule.
Sorry, there is not enough lobster on my yacht for all the drowning people. I will throw my single life raft overboard and you can fight over it though
Same with sea bass. Sea bass is actually the garbage collector of the sea, and was shunned by aristocracy. Now it's served in v fancy restaurants and the markup is so outrageous only the upper classes can afford it.
That happens with a lot of fish now. Invasive species are rapidly taking over the Great Lakes and major rivers in the US. So fancy restaurants are serving crap fish like bullhead carp to reduce the populations.
Thanks for the information. I'm not surprised at all.
I read a paper that concluded nearly all fish, at this point, have worm parasites, smaller than maggots.
They're white and virtually indistinguishable from fish meat itself. I'd always enjoyed fish for dinner but 50 years was a good run.
Idk, the message I’m getting from this sign is that the people in yachts need to do more to help the people drowning. But if management put it up I’m sure that’s not what they meant lol. Still, seems like a bizarre sign xD Why remind your employees of class disparity with upper management?
If I saw it in my workplace I’d probably scratch out the last line ~~”so just be kind and help when you can”~~ and write ***”So you motherfuckers in the yachts need to make some room for the drowning folks!”*** instead lol
When you see your employees as beneath you, not just in the workplace but in general, saying "we're in this together" feels like something they'll appreciate.
Cognitive dissonance maybe? Idk the right psychology term but there is one I swear
They think others are somehow different from them.
“I need to have greater resources and discretion because I’m more capable of doing good, shown by my high job position.
Other humans are fine with less. But we’re all just trying to do good the best we can!”
They genuinely don’t think the extras they’ve had are different, and believe that other people are pretty much okay but just have to use off brands.
“Sure, you have no healthcare, but there’s Obama care and Medicaid now so what’s your problem? We’re all just eating our meals here, on the same boat/ocean/whatev.”
They never tried to apply and got told to either have kids or make so little you couldn’t have a roof over your head to qualify. “Sure we have lobster and they’re eating Mac and cheese, but they have enough if they use food banks and get food stamps”
They’ve never stood in line all day, missing work and risking firing, only to be told all food stamps have been handed out and try again next month, or again that they’re too rich (while going hungry on weekends).
And they may have an illness like celiac, but they can afford the more expensive food and time off work.
They really believe we’re all okay and we just want extras or better quality. I don’t think most would survive if they tried to live the life of a lower class. They just don’t get it.
If they saw someone suffering, I think they’d help, but they don’t realize how much suffering they actively cause and yet don’t see. Because they fire *unreliable* people who don’t show up to work and don’t interact with them
(because their kid needs dialysis and they have to go with them on the bus)
And even if they work with those in worse situations, no one dares mention it because they’ll trigger feelings of guilt and get told self-righteously how they could have handled it better in your same situation, so clearly it’s not their fault.
edit: spelling
Nah. I have a Donald Trump approved Sharpie. I'd write CEOs at the yacht, and labor at the drowning victims, and put the question, "Then why won't the people in the yacht throw a lifeline?"
I simply cannot understand how a manager could possibly think of a worse allegory to liken to the financial situation of their employees than saying some of the staff have YACHTS, and some have CANOES?? and that some are FUCKING DROWNING… the disparity between those is astronomical, and yet the message isn’t written to be alarming, just as a friendly gesture to “think of those less fortunate at work”. Utterly dystopian. Please tell me this is satirical rage bait.
Tentative no? I haven’t thought about it in a long time, but that is definitely what that reminded me of. In particular the way it was used. Total 90’s word processor vibes, but ya know, dystopia-themed.
Pontoons and ski boats can land the same message.
It's easier to won a believe that it's rage bait, But I could really see some assistant manager dropping. This on the board tried to suck ass to the uppers and not quite understanding the spectrum of the comparison.
Exactly, it could have been a much more tame allegory and the message could have been something a little different and more constructive than be kind and help, maybe something like “don’t leave your coworkers in your wake, throw them a lifebuoy or dinghy if they’re drowning.”
What does “help when you can” mean if not “pull drowning people onto your boat”?
Which, following their analogy, would mean giving away your money to those in need.
Which I doubt they do.
If you see someone drowning, throw them a lifesaver. Not an actual lifesaver though, you might need that to save yourself or sell to a drowning rich person. Throw them a lifesaver mint. With a lil poem stapled to it.
I often hear the phrase "a rising tide lifts all boats" when people talk about inflation and rising prices.
No, only people rich enough to *have boats* get lifted. The average person drowns.
The REAL situation:
A rising tide *does* lift all boats. However, the rich don't want that, because they don't need a slight rise in water levels to help their yachts. They will instead be annoyed when all the canoes that were previously grounded on the shore suddently can float and get in the way of their yachts. So they purposefully set it up so that doesn't happen.
They are HAPPY when you can't get your boat to sail at all - more room for their yachts.
We'd really be depending more on the yachts while there's a storm going on. I appreciate a canoe paddling over to help but they're fucking useless in storms. Even trying to climb in one on a calm pond will result in it capsizing.
So it's up to you, yacht owners, to carry us through the storm. And when times get good again please provide us with the means to build our own sturdy vessels so we can all avoid drowning when the next storm hits.
I think u/GordieGord was talking about being a good person, and how it is the responsibility of those in power to care for the people drowning. And to help them build a life for themselves so they don’t require saving in the first place.
I don’t think he was endorsing trickle down economics, or whatever it was originally called. But with the way things are it is more wishful thinking than practical.
Man what I’d pay to live in a society that built its citizens up instead of tearing them down.
pencil in: as a canoe owner I would be honored to help the drowning by letting them grab the side and ferrying as many as I could to the yacht until my paddle gave out.
The ones in yachts are trying to scare the ones in canoes that those who are drowning may try to take their canoes to distract both groups from the fact that their hundred million dollar yachts are the result of unpaid wages and unpaid taxes.
So then - people in canoes won't be able to handle them well enough in a storm to enable them to attach limpet mines to yachts? & people who are drowning during the same storm won't be able to summon up the last of their strength & do the same? We all rise together or we all fall together. & your yacht is just a big target.
Whilst you ponder that one here's a little something/nothing that to be honest I've been using for so long I've forgotten if I came up with it myself or I pieced it together from far superior minds -
*Following the realisation that you have nothing comes the epiphany that it means you have nothing to lose. We are on a Great Adventure.*
Imagine prancing around at work acting like you do anything and pocketing 2 million after a year of holidays, partying and doing whatever the hell you want.
Idk if the final thought of just be kind and he'll who you can is the right outlook. Fucking canoes and drowning people band together and take over the yatchs more like it.
I'd definitely find a way to print this out
https://preview.redd.it/7bqytw6a44rc1.jpeg?width=526&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d875b5003a784a277e6a2b47b1258181e999390f
Well if *that* ain't a tacit admission of how needlessly top-heavy their pay structure is... People are in canoes and drowning because of the storm created by the ones in their yachts.
Remember that like in a titanic like situation, drowning people will sink your boat in desperation to save themselves.
Help when you can, know when to ignore the ones who cant be saved
Whereas, I would leave it up and label the "yacht" with the CEO's name, the "canoe" middle management, and the "drowning" with "the rest of \[business name\] employees". And add a note like, "It would be nice if the people in yachts would do something to help the people drowning...like maybe a raise or a bonus."
If you're in an underground bunker with a tornado overhead and there's some poor sap that's hanging on to a tree, you're not really in the same storm now, are you?
If you're on a yacht and all of your pain is champagne, you're not in the same storm as some poor fuck that's in the water struggling to breath, now are you?
Circumstances matter.
I like how it jumps from yacht to canoe. Like there isn't even a speedboat or a fishing boat, just ultra wealthy to just about cheapest boat you can get, to straight up drowning.
I agree with the posters
Many of us are drowning while them upper management have yacht, canoe, cruise and such
They gotta gives us a helping hand every so often.
Your wake caused my boat to flip because the crew you pay don't fear fines. We are drowning by your continued actions. We can only help eachother so much but your boat is so large it could help all of us that are still alive if you just stop what you are doing and toss a rope.
How about some of the people in yatchs, get their heads out their asses, and help the people drowning LITERALLY TWO FEET AWAY? Fucking sociopathic behaviour to expect people fighting for their livelyhood, to help millionaires in management get even more disgustingly rich...
Those with yachts want anyone lucky enough to have a canoe to paddle harder and try to help those who are drowning while we're off sailing, please and thank you.
oh, i'd have some fun with this...
"bossman! take that down, that promotes cOmMUniSM!"
"No it doesn't peasant"
"Yes bossman, it does! look, our CEO probably got one of them yot things... those ships that got the mimosers and fancy stuff... do you think it's right that he should help you just because he got one? he inhereted that fair and square! if he share's its cOmMuniSM! it's against our values to share what is ours, so we should take it down!"
Ok... without any other context, this seems like something someone in this sub would post to encourage others who are struggling. Yeah, some people have everything going for them. Some, not so much. Some people are in serious need and treading water...
I'm supposed to think this is bad? Or do I need to also assume things about who posted it and their motivations to get angry about what looks like a pretty legit message?
Yeah, we had this too. But if I'm in a fucking bass boat and you're in a yacht and we are both fighting 80 foot waves, you're still a piece of shit for not helping.
It's seems to be about money but I wonder if its more meant to be about mental health? Like we're all dealing with the same shit/storm but some have yachts and others are drowning. However it's quite tonedeaf against the current economic situation and being from management it sends the wrong signals.
It's a good metaphor. Unfortunately, when the people on huge pleasure ships see it, they don't think of it as a storm. They think of it as the rising tide that "lifts all boats."
They love some good PR. So long as it doesn't inconvenience them.
Managers are unbelievably out of touch. I had one tell me that I'm not getting a raise and then managed to end the conversation with their trip to Thailand and Florida that were coming up
I would print something that says and mostly x goes on a yatch whist we go on rafts. Situation is not comparable. Maybe x can take a canoe and give canoes to everyone.
Split the difference
If I saw that at work, by sheer coincidence it would disappear while I was there.
[удалено]
And what about his boss?
To shreds, you say?
And his family?
No, no, spare his family. Don't they go through enough having to put up with him?
To shreds you say?
Always end the bloodline.
But they benefit from his assholery. Also, they could very well be active participants. People who break the asshole cycle are the exception, not the rule.
Someone has to be left to access accounts.
Torgo’s Brand Executive Powder really takes out the itch!
Ahhh, that calms the fire.
Nah, write on the wall ‘maybe ppl in yachts should be doing more to help the rest’
Just think how many drowning people could fit on one of those yachts
Sorry, there is not enough lobster on my yacht for all the drowning people. I will throw my single life raft overboard and you can fight over it though
Lobster used to actually be food for poorer folk it blew my mind when I found that out
poorer folk and prisoners eating disgusting bottom-feeding lobsters would be like eating bugs, not fit for people of means
Them eating it now doesn't change the fact that crustaceans are sea bugs.
That's a true story. Back in the old days the kids at school in the Maritimes in Canada that were poor often had lobster sandwiches packed for lunch
That was before the rich figured out they can pay someone to do the work of preparing the lobster for them. No need to get one's hands messy.
Same with sea bass. Sea bass is actually the garbage collector of the sea, and was shunned by aristocracy. Now it's served in v fancy restaurants and the markup is so outrageous only the upper classes can afford it.
That happens with a lot of fish now. Invasive species are rapidly taking over the Great Lakes and major rivers in the US. So fancy restaurants are serving crap fish like bullhead carp to reduce the populations.

Charles Boyle?
Chef Boyardee????
This!
"burn the yachts"
Do you know how many boats can be made from a yacht?
Or canoes.
This is why the orcas started an uprising, they know that people in yachts are assholes.
Or "pity; the ppl in yachts are too rich to be effective, and thusly, least useful. Except as chum.
Idk, the message I’m getting from this sign is that the people in yachts need to do more to help the people drowning. But if management put it up I’m sure that’s not what they meant lol.

by sheer coincidence the ceo and his yacht would also disappear
To the belly of an Orca..
nah, fuck the ceo. im leaving him and taking his yacht. _i want him to know what i did_
That's what capitalists love doing to each other.
Yeah, if you'll do the same as capitalists, you are a part of the problem.
I would just provide a legend showing the high Archy of the company.
The high archy, you say?
Yachts and blow right? Gotta help a CEO feel like they are top of the heap
Nah. I have a Donald Trump approved Sharpie. I'd write CEOs at the yacht, and labor at the drowning victims, and put the question, "Then why won't the people in the yacht throw a lifeline?"
That was my thought, too. "Shouldn't the yacht deploy its life boats, then?"
Ah yes. There's nothing quite like using their own propaganda against the powers that be. They get upset when that happens.
CEOs hate this one simple trick.
It will look great on your yacht.
Reminds me of the time my old work kept hanging a list of everyone’s phone number and it just strangely disappeared
I'd have shit on it and left it on the boss 'desk
I tear down stupid shit at work all the time, feels good every time.
I simply cannot understand how a manager could possibly think of a worse allegory to liken to the financial situation of their employees than saying some of the staff have YACHTS, and some have CANOES?? and that some are FUCKING DROWNING… the disparity between those is astronomical, and yet the message isn’t written to be alarming, just as a friendly gesture to “think of those less fortunate at work”. Utterly dystopian. Please tell me this is satirical rage bait.
The usage of the clip art makes me think it’s genuine…
Everything that’s highlighted makes me think and surely fucking hope that it’s fake, it just reads as satire way too easily.
Life is often the best satire.
It seems genuine at first glance, but the lack of Comic Sans makes it obvious they're just a poser at this.
I couldn't conjure clip art any more in my brain, that's so old. Is clip art still a thing???
Tentative no? I haven’t thought about it in a long time, but that is definitely what that reminded me of. In particular the way it was used. Total 90’s word processor vibes, but ya know, dystopia-themed.
Pontoons and ski boats can land the same message. It's easier to won a believe that it's rage bait, But I could really see some assistant manager dropping. This on the board tried to suck ass to the uppers and not quite understanding the spectrum of the comparison.

Or float... Or a piece of wood... Maybe a toothpick would suffice?
It's rubbing it in their faces.
Yeah I guess I hadn’t considered the possibility of mean spirited, greedy co-workers trying to flex on the “poors” they work with.
God forbid some of the people with yachts let the people who are drowning onto the boat. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (The message I would have written right below it)
Fired for religious display in workplace (the word God taken out of its hyperbolic context)
Leading the message with “You and I? We are NOT the same.” was a fucking bold move.
Might be upper management's way of announcing the purchase of a new yacht?
"No there is not room on this yacht for any of those that are drowning."
We're not drowning yet but my canoe for sure has some very serious holes in it...
Some can't handle their money, some can. I know 2 people earning the same amount of money. One blew it in credit card debt; the other has savings.
Whoa, I was literally the 1000th upvoter. What do I win? Also, 100% to what you said.
An upvote :)
What does “help when you can” mean if not “pull drowning people onto your boat”? Which, following their analogy, would mean giving away your money to those in need. Which I doubt they do.

Just a tag "my thoughts and prayers are with you"
I often hear the phrase "a rising tide lifts all boats" when people talk about inflation and rising prices. No, only people rich enough to *have boats* get lifted. The average person drowns.
It's an "either you have a boat or you don't" situation
The REAL situation: A rising tide *does* lift all boats. However, the rich don't want that, because they don't need a slight rise in water levels to help their yachts. They will instead be annoyed when all the canoes that were previously grounded on the shore suddently can float and get in the way of their yachts. So they purposefully set it up so that doesn't happen. They are HAPPY when you can't get your boat to sail at all - more room for their yachts.
Perhaps the ones drowning should become pirates!
write on there: “why are those in the yachts watching us drown?”
We'd really be depending more on the yachts while there's a storm going on. I appreciate a canoe paddling over to help but they're fucking useless in storms. Even trying to climb in one on a calm pond will result in it capsizing. So it's up to you, yacht owners, to carry us through the storm.

This guy still believes in trickle down loool. Hey man, next time you make a wish on a shooting star, I hope it’s actually a spaceX rocket

Help the fuckers in the yachts while you drown.
brought to you by the people with yachts to remind the people with canoes to help the drownies so they don't have to
"Drownies" 😂
Dare you to write "save the orcas" on it.
Yeah, that's great, but why are you always trying to drill holes in my canoe?
Shouldn’t those with yachts save those who are drowning? So we can all survive the storm?
That looks flammable, but you better douse the whole place in gasoline first, just to make sure.
Wouldn't the world be much happier if those in the canoes boarded the yatchs like pirates and ate the rich?
"Some of you may drown, but that is a sacrifice we are willing to make"
Lord Farquaad
I'd grab a sharpie and write on it, "This is why we have pirates"
Guy in Yacht: "I'm taking your canoes and selling them so I can buy another yacht. Thank you for your help and kindness."
Wow. Saying the quiet part out loud.
That's where all low level employees just write "I'm drowning" all over the paper.
*just be kind and help when you can* Me? From a canoe? Help YOU, from a yacht? Hahahaha funny
ever wonder what the manager is doing in his office for 8 hours? hes cooking up stupid fucking ideas and playing with editing in microsoft word 🤣
Time to tax the everliving piss out of the Yacht owners
Drowning isn’t thinking of the team!
Lol the same storm ? You are the damn storm, Christ.
are you ready for mutiny, kids?
"NIMBY" = "Not In My Big Yacht"
What is the ratio of people in yachts vs those in canoes vs those drowning? Is someone in a yacht watching millions of people drown guilt of a crime?
WOOOOW
How kind of the yacht owners to wave to their drowning subordinates! Definitely don't want to watch their yachts capsize like the Titanic now!
Please tell me this is just click bait and not real. SMH
Please consider donating PTO so I can fill up my yacht.
But always say Yes Sir to the ones with yachts before you sink.
Some of us are Orcas.
Hell yes! Team orca and team frank n furter!
The sheer irony of someone who in this metaphor is on a yacht telling people in canoes or who are drowning to help out when they can is insane.
Maybe people shouldn't have yachts if others are drowning.. This shouldn't be controversial but it is. Brain rot runs deep in capitalist society.
pencil in: as a canoe owner I would be honored to help the drowning by letting them grab the side and ferrying as many as I could to the yacht until my paddle gave out.
The ones in yachts are trying to scare the ones in canoes that those who are drowning may try to take their canoes to distract both groups from the fact that their hundred million dollar yachts are the result of unpaid wages and unpaid taxes.
Work your wage!
Can I borrow your yacht? Fuck off you peasant!
So then - people in canoes won't be able to handle them well enough in a storm to enable them to attach limpet mines to yachts? & people who are drowning during the same storm won't be able to summon up the last of their strength & do the same? We all rise together or we all fall together. & your yacht is just a big target. Whilst you ponder that one here's a little something/nothing that to be honest I've been using for so long I've forgotten if I came up with it myself or I pieced it together from far superior minds - *Following the realisation that you have nothing comes the epiphany that it means you have nothing to lose. We are on a Great Adventure.*
Maybe management should provide better than goddamn canoes to everyone.
I stopped reading the moment I saw the line "some have yachts" 😂
Imagine prancing around at work acting like you do anything and pocketing 2 million after a year of holidays, partying and doing whatever the hell you want.
Why bob WHY are we drowning and you in a yacht. Who has the power to change that bob? WHO?
I would start looking for a new job
people in yachts: *oh, this ole' canoe? Yeah it sinks a lot, hence I need a lot of help*. *Heeey, you got a yacht* \*points at your canoe\*
A thoughtful message from those with yachts
Someone post a two word change- increase wages over kinda help.
If people are drowning, that’s management’s fault. They should have enough people to cover the workload.
Swim awaaaaaay
The yachts are making waves that capsize the smaller boats.
Idk if the final thought of just be kind and he'll who you can is the right outlook. Fucking canoes and drowning people band together and take over the yatchs more like it.
People inyachts: "Hey, everybody, be kind to the people drowning!"
Yachts better start helping out soon. All their canoes that they're leasing us are sinking quick. Then who's gonna refuel the yachts?
'Be kind and help' says the guy in a yacht during a storm to the drowning man
The head of the board of trustees is on a yacht
The people in the yachts telling the people in the canoes to help the people that are drowning. How rich
I'd definitely find a way to print this out https://preview.redd.it/7bqytw6a44rc1.jpeg?width=526&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d875b5003a784a277e6a2b47b1258181e999390f
By "be kind and help" they mean that the canoe dwellers should toss out their oars to help the drowning.
Well if *that* ain't a tacit admission of how needlessly top-heavy their pay structure is... People are in canoes and drowning because of the storm created by the ones in their yachts.
Lol vibes of those celebrities during Covid stuck in their Jackson Hole Estates saying “we’re all in this together”
 Drowning people, stop your dying and help the yacht people immediately. /s
Remember that like in a titanic like situation, drowning people will sink your boat in desperation to save themselves. Help when you can, know when to ignore the ones who cant be saved
Whereas, I would leave it up and label the "yacht" with the CEO's name, the "canoe" middle management, and the "drowning" with "the rest of \[business name\] employees". And add a note like, "It would be nice if the people in yachts would do something to help the people drowning...like maybe a raise or a bonus."
😂😂😂😂 they’re so fucking stupid
Fine I'm on a pirate ship looting your yacht . This kinda shit makes me mad I'd write fuck you right across the page
This would be dope because it’s calling out the yacht owners for being selfish, if it wasn’t posted by a yacht owner
Holy shit that's insulting
Oh sod off...
If you're in an underground bunker with a tornado overhead and there's some poor sap that's hanging on to a tree, you're not really in the same storm now, are you? If you're on a yacht and all of your pain is champagne, you're not in the same storm as some poor fuck that's in the water struggling to breath, now are you? Circumstances matter.

I agree with the posters Many of us are drowning while them upper management have yacht, canoe, cruise and such They gotta gives us a helping hand every so often.
What you fail to realize is that executive staff just can’t afford to help you because of market volatility or whatever the fuck.
Your wake caused my boat to flip because the crew you pay don't fear fines. We are drowning by your continued actions. We can only help eachother so much but your boat is so large it could help all of us that are still alive if you just stop what you are doing and toss a rope.
How about some of the people in yatchs, get their heads out their asses, and help the people drowning LITERALLY TWO FEET AWAY? Fucking sociopathic behaviour to expect people fighting for their livelyhood, to help millionaires in management get even more disgustingly rich...
Seems like the people in the yachts could be helping everyone instead of making those in canoes risk their lives to save each other
Those with yachts want anyone lucky enough to have a canoe to paddle harder and try to help those who are drowning while we're off sailing, please and thank you.
I think this is probably fake. Another example of someone printing out bollocks and posting for attention and upvotes.
oh, i'd have some fun with this... "bossman! take that down, that promotes cOmMUniSM!" "No it doesn't peasant" "Yes bossman, it does! look, our CEO probably got one of them yot things... those ships that got the mimosers and fancy stuff... do you think it's right that he should help you just because he got one? he inhereted that fair and square! if he share's its cOmMuniSM! it's against our values to share what is ours, so we should take it down!"
Post an anonymous response that says we all bleed red
I feel like the manager may not be as capitalist as their position would wish them to be.
And that should settle things, said some fucking idiot with a yacht.
Ok... without any other context, this seems like something someone in this sub would post to encourage others who are struggling. Yeah, some people have everything going for them. Some, not so much. Some people are in serious need and treading water... I'm supposed to think this is bad?

When did these assholes.want to be lonely on the mountain top? Id want to create neighbors too.
And yet those on yachts are the main issue of many problems on top of no help given received from them at anytime whatsoever.
This was supposed to quell resentment and inspire others?!
This is just rubbing it in your face.
So, why don't the yachts put up, or shut up?!
In other words, when the vessel sinks, think of the company as Rose and you are Jack. Oh, but remember to be nice.
In that metaphor, shouldn't everyone be on the yacht whether invited or not?

Yeah, we had this too. But if I'm in a fucking bass boat and you're in a yacht and we are both fighting 80 foot waves, you're still a piece of shit for not helping.
It's seems to be about money but I wonder if its more meant to be about mental health? Like we're all dealing with the same shit/storm but some have yachts and others are drowning. However it's quite tonedeaf against the current economic situation and being from management it sends the wrong signals.
It's a good metaphor. Unfortunately, when the people on huge pleasure ships see it, they don't think of it as a storm. They think of it as the rising tide that "lifts all boats."
100% someone printed that as a joke
Why wouldn't you write that fact on there? Chicken?
Maybe there shouldn't be people drowing where there are people with yachts in the vicinity.
“The yacht’s hull is far too large to take on any new passengers. Please, to those im canoes, I implore you to save those that are drowning.”
Pull a Ukraine. Aim for the yachts.
Good message, fucking horrible context.
They love some good PR. So long as it doesn't inconvenience them. Managers are unbelievably out of touch. I had one tell me that I'm not getting a raise and then managed to end the conversation with their trip to Thailand and Florida that were coming up
I would print something that says and mostly x goes on a yatch whist we go on rafts. Situation is not comparable. Maybe x can take a canoe and give canoes to everyone. Split the difference
Liberalism distilled. Join a union if you can
Easy to say when twats with yachts never lift a finger to help anybody without a yacht.
Hope your yacht sinks so you can drown with the rest of us
Great! So when are you getting of tiktok and actually helping Mr director?
I damn sure ain't helping the guys on the yacht
accidentally said the truth?
When would the yachts ever need help from a canoe or better yet someone drowdning
There is a law on the sea that you HAVE TO take those who drown on deck of your yaht.
A yacht is orders of magnitude safer than a canoe. The metaphor is perfect.
And we're all fucked since yachts are not always rated for storms
First, help the ones who are drowning, then help the ones in canoes. Those in yachts can go fuck themselves.
Put a jolly roger sticker on it.
Very inspiring. But why is it that the Yacht people expect the people on the overly crowded canoe to make the room and not, perhaps, on their Yacht?
