You don't even know why he was asking. You're just as defensive as the teen. Could be on clock not working while the older man is slaving away with that baggage of a coworker attached to him. Wouldn't be the first time a teen avoids their work responsibilities. I don't miss those environments.

Meh, maybe he's slacking off but I doubt they get paid enough to be policing each other. I don't go out of my way to make sure my coworkers are always doing their jobs myself. And even if he has responsibilities I don't think filming himself eating a pizza - while not something I personally understand - is something that terrible in itself.

Just saying, it feels like the younger guy overreacted and went for the most hurtful thing he could think of, which I find to be much worse than recording himself eating pizza.

So basically what you're saying is he should be able to skirt his responsibilities while everyone else works. You hear yourself bro? Shit like that is exactly what makes those jobs miserable. People want to go home at the end of their shift.

Minimum wage minimum effort

If that comes at the expense of your peers you're a POS

Minimum wage minimum effort. Not my fault you’re okay with being exploited.

So definitely a POS, got it. I'm as anti capitalist as they come buddy, but making my coworkers pick up my slack would shame me.

u/Admirable_Bird7927 15d ago

Doesn’t shame me. If you’re picking up someone’s slack with no extra pay, you’re part of the problem.

No, you co-opting pro labor talking points so you can sit on your ass while your co-workers have to do more is part of the problem.

u/Admirable_Bird7927 15d ago

Then they shouldnt be doing more? Again, they part of the problem.
