Burl is such a derp, it’s a wonder he can keep a job at all, much less a manager’s position. He’s not even qualified to be a WalMart greeter! The sad thing is, I know of someone who’d do something like this. The guy is an assistant manager at the chemist shop where my nephew works, and the stories that said nephew comes home with are astounding! Sometimes they’re funny as heck, but more times than not the creep ends up hurting someone’s feelings, whether it be customer or employee. I have NO flippin’ idea of how that guy keeps his job. Well, I DO, but I can’t say it HERE.
The floggings will end when morale improves. It sounds like U-Stor-It is prepping for a layoff and wants the employees to stand still so’s it’ll take fewer bullets. No problem, though, ol’ Darryl and his brother Darryl don’t have a clue. Their other brother Darryl is the smart one.
In his usual slothlike fashion, Burl takes the easy way out. However, in this case, he actually was HELPFUL to the employees (and not to himself) by letting them hear (what they already probably knew) what the bosses think of them. It is truly sad when “bosses” are so horrible as this, and it really is a detriment to a good work environment. But, it is good for the workers to know where they stand.
Productivity, what do they do? What happened to the snack drawer? ’Burl is perfect example of the corporate world, promoted until you can’t do the job, then that is where you stay. So he got one promotion from peon to lackey.
Go-Burl-GO!!!! Let ‘em know all your ’lil “trade secrets”. Spill the beans (but kindly hold in the lower intestinal build-up from last night’s beans (or whatever…) until you’re alone in the room (or better yet outside in a strong breeze), let the cat outta the bag, break any wall you can access, etc., etc. They’ll probably resent you harder in the morning.

For once, Burl delivered information that the employees could use. Of course, he has no idea he did that!

Yes. I’d like to go to a business where EXLAX is in the top drawer, easy to get to.
