this has to be satire

Hideakikarate,

One would hope that a message THAT tone deaf wouldn’t have even made it to the keyboard before realizing what a catastrophically bad idea it was.

littletranspunk,

This is basically how Golden Corral works their staff

there's a lot of stupid, ignorant assholes running small businesses all over the place that think they own their employees and can boss them 24/7. this could totally be a legit posting somewhere.

if you want me answering my phone 24/7, you're paying me 24/7--and providing the phone you want me to answer.

sibannac,

I’ve seen shit like this working in an understaffed restaurant. It was understaffed because the management decided to drug test and most of the staff was let go. Then whined the entire time about people unable to cover shifts and pulled shit like this. I promptly left after coming back from being sick.

i_dont_want_to,

Drug testing at a restaurant?! lmaooooo

porous_grey_matter,

Yes, of course there are plenty of workplaces this bad, but they still wouldn’t write “voluntary mandatory”

Ragnarok314159,

After meeting many a middle manager, I can say with absolute certainty that they would write something like this.

DragonTypeWyvern,

Unironically.

an_onanist,

‘…voluntary mandatory shift coverage.’

Someone should be gifted a dictionary for Supervisor Appreciation Day.

I totally understand the overall ridiculousness of this, but I suspect that “mandatory” and “voluntary” apply to 2 different people in this case. Person 1 has a “mandatory shift” and person 2 is supposed to voluntarily cover that person’s mandatory shift.

phdepressed,

But it is mandatory because they get fired for not doing it.

Yeah, which is why I have “voluntarily” in italics.

The appropriate answer to that is the full staff making a chorus and singing to the bosses “FUCK YOUUUUUUUUUUU! WE’RE LEEEEAVING!”
