1% counterattack

[Traitorfish]

Not insulting someone because of his job is a sign of respect that costs nothing and that, fortunately, most rich people still keep.

I don't see how grinding the majority of the population into poverty, as was the wont of the classical bourgeoisie, becomes less insulting or more respectful just because it wasn't accompanied by passive-aggressive notes.

 

[Leonel]

And this is how we're becoming despotic societies.

Respect scale is going down.

As well as economic distribution it seems. I don't get it, we knew these lessons in 1945 to the point of even making a school PSA! What happened? Did we forget the lessons of the past as we always do?
garbage day!

 

[Magic Pancake]

Guys, it isn't even real. We all realize this, yes?

 

[Leonel]

I don't know which is worse, a snobby 1%er or someone who manipulates my feelings on the matter.

 

[Traitorfish]

Well, let's put it this way: how many families is said manipulator likely to have evicted this month?

 

[Leonel]

Excellent point

True dat, yo.

How do you know he does this at all?

Isnt that precisely the kind of knee-jerk reactionism that led to this travesty of a story in the first place?

 

[Traitorfish]

Personally? I don't. But as a representative of his class, as a beneficiary of a rotten system? I'm afraid my sympathies are strictly limited.

 

[Whomp]

Haha...remind me to use this kind of chicanery if I ever start a blog to get traffic but make sure to hone my photoshop skills. Classic.

How do we even know if there's a 1% involved in this case?

His 'class'?

So a guy that gets a degree in say, economics...becomes a banker, works his way up honestly, is a spawn of satan because of what you think of his 'class'.

Lord mercy.

Odds are your average banker eating at a place like that for only a 37 dollar lunch isnt part of the 1%. Hell, thats about how much I pay when I take my wife out to lunch.

Oxymoron.

Lots of folk in the 1% keep their lunch under $12. Or under $8. Whatever is near the office and tastes good.

 

[MobBoss]

Oxymoron.

Not at all.

And Hygro, be careful, you'll ruin the image we have of the idle rich.

Thirty-seven dollars for ONE meal that isn't even supper?

Regardless of how much the banker's meal really cost, his attitude is reprehensible. How does he know the waitress herself doesn't despise the Occupy movement?

Anybody who tells a service industry employee to "get a real job" and has the gall to go back to that place should be told, "The employee took your advice and got a real job. If you want anything to eat, cook it and serve it yourself."

Just to be sure, you know that it was proven to be a hoax, right?

 

[azzaman333]

The guy who shopped it is a quality troll, no doubt.

 

[Valka D'Ur]

IF a customer ever behaved in such a disrespectful way to an employee, what I posted about "cook it yourself" should apply. Hoax or not, it's an appalling attitude toward the service industry.
