Super hoping to see the end of capitalism in my lifetime tbh.

@dean
In England we only just introduced a mandatory 5p charge for them on 5th October 2015, and companies are only just now "phasing out" disposable plastic bags voluntarily, my company being one of them. We do everything ridiculously slowly and largely begrudgingly

Eeeehhhh it's just one more thing that this company has buggered up. There's a list of them at this point, but I'm sure none of it will get fixed because the CEOs are too busy patting themselves on the back with huge wads of cash they've earned themselves by doing a merger.

Oh I tell a lie it did do one functional thing, which was to remove the ability for customers to auto pay for 5p disposable bags because we're not doing them any more soon.

Exactly my response. All the exact same issues, nothing is fixed or improved. In fact they are actually harder to read for the customers, and there's this massive central chunk of wasted space used to just show what the last scanned item is (in text only). The help needed button is TINY now and right next to an equally tiny button to set everything to Welsh. Just like... Why even bother??

Is there a word for an "update" which actually fixes absolutely nothing and all it does is put a fancy new skin on everything but is still formatted as an update meaning that if the update didn't apply it would near brick the systems it wasn't applied on necessitating an engineer coming out to manually update the systems with this fancy new skin over everything?

Cause uh...

Yeah. That's our self scans.

@kara

Morning thoughts: did Mr Krabs actually feel anything
What was he meant to be feeling
What DID he feel

What do crabs feel like
Go touch a crab
Crab sticks rarely actually contain crab
Fish sticks are what we call fish fingers
Fish don't have fingers
Where do they get the fingers?!
That's silly they're just called fingers because they are long oblong shapes.
What if fingers were balls
Balls to the walls
...wall made of balls

.....I should get up.

@lizardsquid basically im gonna find a new job, then immediately give my notice in and give them two middle fingers up any time they try and convince me not to leave because hooooly fuck
