while most, if not all, of that list is true, it's still some boomer shit to share, IMO.

I would have written back...

"Rule 12: Don't fuck with people who will fuck with you back. Good luck with your company, <c-word>s ;)"

and never made my presence confirmed again.

The whole life isn't fair shit, is what people say when they don't care about the injustice that happens to other. If the person who wrote that got robbed. You can bet your bottom dollar that he or she would seek justice not just say life isn't fair.

Maybe, but printing that out and giving it to every employee on their first day? You might as well just give every employee a note saying "I am a controlling asshole who will make your life hell unless you do everything exactly the way I say."

If I got a letter like that on my first day I would immediately start looking for a new job.

How can you misconstrue this so much?

Thats not at all what "life is unfair" means.

No it doesnt mean "injustice is okay", it means that you have to expect it and shouldnt complain about it 24/7. In a perfect world yeah everyone is treated fairly but this isnt a perfect world. In bussiness you might need to show you are capable of rising above the problems you come across because that shows you have what it takes to succeed.

Something similar to that letter was posted on the main hallway of my high school since the 1990s.

edit: Yeah thinking back this was the exact same letter posted up in my high school for years.

Back to my put. Let something happen to them and see if that idea holds true. You are arrest for stealing from our boss. However wage theft surpasses normal theft in spades. But the people who are doing this are not going to jail. This idea that you just take injustice on chin is bullshit. It doesn't show character it shows just what I said it does. You just gussy it up a little bit.

whut

Thats not what it means

this isnt an applicable situation of the phrase "life isnt fair", well I mean it just shows life isnt fair but no one is sitting here trying to excuse abhorrent behaviors with saying this. Life isnt fair just means life isnt fair, do your best because not everyone gets the same hand.

I enjoy that especially because whoever wrote it would have entered the workforce at a time where a single income unskilled office job could provide a "3 kids-2 car-home with a pool" lifestyle.

Eh... not really. By that time Reagonomics had already done a lot to erode stuff like that.

Flipping burgers is beneath me, though, thanks to employers and customers treating said people like shit.

Also, you need self-esteem or you're never going to do work to be proud of.

I can almost promise you the boss or manager will use the "life isn't fair" justification to have you "on-call" at a burger flipping job and if you refuse, they'll go "life isn't fair, come on in or you're fucking fired"

These are the people who cream their adult diapers over the thought of lifting labor laws so they can abuse their employees without the long arm of the law hanging over their head saying they can't do that. These are the same managers and CEOs bitching about a labor shortage when all they're willing to pay is a poverty wage.
