Would you like extra fries for a dollar more?
No, but how much for the kid?
People are so brainwashed for thinking this is heartwarming and not incredibly fucked.
This is literally what “black excellence” is, but calling it out makes you (internally) racist, a pick me for the nazis, or a black person who is white on the inside.
This post is inspirational and any problem you have with it is racially motivated.
What are you on about?
Interesting point, but I think meme culture is also programming people to stop thinking the moment their outrage is triggered. There’s a group consensus that acknowledging any other factors besides the evil in a situation is a defense of that evil.
The crowd clearly agrees with you on that, but many people are able to continue thinking even after they feel outrage.
it takes a village to raise a child…
it takes a Corporation to exploit a family for their personal gain.
I’ve seen this personally here in Georgia, and I mean more than once.
17, working and has a child?! 💀
I like that “it takes a village” means bringing your child to work, and not having the support to either have someone/some facility watch your child if you chose to work, or having actual paternity leave. Nor does it mean being paid enough that if you had to just not work, you and yours wouldn’t be in the street.
How inspiring.
does anyone actually see this and think it’s heartwarming???
This gives me the same vibe as all those “feelgood” stories about communities coming together to pay for some valued member’s back surgery or cancer treatment or something.
It’s nice people do that, but what about people that are less liked, and how is it that we have so much wealth going around, and yet extremely basic things like healthcare are still factors people need to concern themselves with being able to afford?
Nope
Not at all… I bet the manager would have sacked her if she could.
Orphan crushing machine…
This ain’t no village
That’s the opposite of a village
Capitalism equals a miserable life for most people, we should free ourselves.
but for many (and we know who) your misery cancels out THEIR misery.
as long has YOU are suffering more than they…They win. which is why “Owning the Libs” is to them desirable. and a sufficient reason for self harming behavior.
it is an insane point of view…but there you go.
babies having babies 😔
The manager was generous enough to let her carry her child while working, but not generous enough to pay her enough to get childcare, or provide it themselves?
It reminds me a bit of the story of a mother going in for a job interview, and shortly after, being arrested for child negligence/endangerment, because she’d left her child unattended (in the same area) while attending said interview. This situation feels like it’s setting up for that kind of thing.
I mean, it’s McDonald’s. The manager doesn’t have the ability to pay her a living wage. The manager is a wage slave as well, or even worse on salary while having to cover so many shifts they’re barely averaging minimum wage themselves.
No, the person you’re mad at is the franchise owner.
And, depending on the store, the franchise owner could be barely breaking even despite paying employees so poorly.
Restaurants, and especially Fast food, is a very low margin industry unless the stores are churning through a significant number of orders consistently throughout the day.
Source: managed a fast food store for a couple years that, after all costs, barely broke even most months of the year.
What a beautiful world
Capitalism Baby Capitalism. Nazi can have every luxury but a single mom food? How Dare you
