alt text: 18 of our 40 employees are located in the Philippines. Insanely competent, great judgement, and $5 per hour. If you run a small business and don't have overseas help you're at a disadvantage

My uncle visited the Philippines. When he came back he went on and on, “They’re poor, some don’t have running water and they got dirt for floors. They work so hard though, and they’re so loyal. I wish I could find people like that here in the states. Not people constantly asking for more. People who are happy with what they have and are loyal. You can’t find anyone loyal to anything but themselves here.”
I nearly vomited hearing that shit.
“Why won’t people just make me rich here without worrying about their piece of the pie. I don’t have enough luxury vehicles. My house isn’t a castle like it should be.” Was all I heard.
It’s disgusting.
Absofuckinglutley. My God... "Only loyal to themselves."
Yeah dude... We got rid of slavery and no one exactly feels like volunteering to be a ~~slave~~ loyal worker especially when owners aren't loyal to their employees!
I should serve you and your best interests with vigor, but the next cheap labor opportunity you find you drop me like a bad habit... <No, Thanks.>
Tell him to "be the change you want to see in the world"
And then smash his floor so it becomes all dirt
