“Stop calling Kylo Ren whiney, let men be emotional”

Ok but there’s a difference between men allowing themselves to be vulnerable and a violent beta male edgelord who spends their free time playing Hatred

[withswords]

you know who was an emotional and vulnerable man without having violent tantrums? FINN. stop looking for excuses to humanize “"damaged”“ white male fascists and murderers at the expense of well developed black protagonists lmao

On the fifth floor of South Korea’s sprawling National Library is a place far more fascinating than its name suggests: The North Korea Information Center.

Here you can read every edition of North Korea’s national newspaper, the Rodong Sinmun, dating to its first publication in the 1970s. Or peruse a collection of 100,000 North Korean books and videos — fiction, nonfiction and the complete teachings of the autocratic dynasty that runs the country.

In addition to political propaganda, there is also a North Korean children’s book section. And there are textbooks. (Calculus problems are exactly the same in North Korea, but the textbooks have much less color.)

“There are very few places worldwide where you can get most of this stuff that is surrounding us,” says Christopher Green, a North Korea scholar from University of Leiden, who spends a lot of his time here doing research.

Researchers know about this place, which opened in the late 1980s during a thaw in inter-Korean relations. But the library isn’t advertised. Most South Koreans have never heard of it, and they can face jail time for having these materials out in the wild.

Here’s a question that no one ever has a good answer for: why are cashiers forced to stand? Who decided people need to stand for 4 hours straight between breaks when they don’t MOVE?

[rozalynpaige]

Would it really hurt if they had, at least, a stool?

[fatfeministkilljoy-deactivated2]

I remember being 16 starting my first job. I was a cashier at a small grocery store and my first shift was 8 hours. My body was absolutely broken afterward. Fortunately my body got used to the standing but honestly, if I had to go back to a very physically demanding job at my current age, I don’t think I could do it.

My respect goes out to those who hustle daily in physically demanding jobs.

[thehotgirlproject]

Thing that kills me though is that standing is a requirement but they get mad if you lean on the counter

[fatgirlopinions]

This is a good question why do they have to stand??

[violetteviolence]

Places like Aldi (a grocery store) let their cashiers sit and it’s the greatest thing ever.

There is literally no reason for cashiers to stand other than gross “aesthetic” reasons like not wanting their employees to look “lazy” and to specifically alienate fat and non able bodied employees. They can’t outright say you can’t work there so instead they find ways to make the job impossible for you.

Most retail cashier jobs are absolutely gross and treat their employees like shit simply for ableist/fatphobic reasons.

I worked at a Rite aid for 4 years and almost every one of our rules were like that. We couldn’t lean on counters or just stand “idly” because we couldn’t look “unproductive” to customers. If customers were in the store we were required to be “busy” at all times. So even if you were just standing behind the counter waiting for people to come up you had to look “engaged.”

Also a lot of our dress code requirements were specifically designed to alienate fat people because the company wanted to “project an overall message of health” and fat employees “detracted from that message.”

[new-found-princess]

I would like to add that some owners now enforce a “no water policy” because it would be unprofessional if a customer were to see a cashier drink from a bottle that was not sold or available at said store. Also at a friend of mines job they changed the uniforms to dress shirts and when they hired a new cashier and she couldn’t fit in said shirts they told her that front end would no longer be seamless seeing as they couldn’t get a shirt in her size (3XL) so was/is forced to wear a stock shirt which is similar to a sweat shirt.

So moral of the story as much as your issue with the fact that maybe we didn’t perfectly pack your groceries or maybe that we didn’t spend your entire order smiling from ear to ear, maybe it has to do with the poor work conditions cashiers and many people in the service industry are forced to deal with, such as make us uncomfortable, tired and unnecessarily sore due to the owners desire to make the customers feel as if we couldn’t be happier to be there.

End of rant.

[fatgirlopinions]

Wow it’s unprofessional to drink water now lol aka “we don’t view you as human how dare you act like one”

When I was unemployed there was a lady I became friends with who was in her 60′s and she has been out of work for years and all she wanted was a little part time job until she could retire but literally everywhere required her to stand for hours and hours at a time and that’s not something she could do and she had like 30+ years retail experience but couldn’t find a job because no one was willing to work around her. It’s so frustratingggg and people love to frame unemployed people as lazy but most of the time it’s because working environments just aren’t suited for everyone and most employers aren’t willing to cater to their employees needs.
