Love when people spread the love on their last day.
At an undisclosed time in the past, I worked at a call center for a big, horrible bank. I hated it but didn't plan on quitting until I got off of a heartbreaking call around 10 in the morning. That call/situation broke me as a person, so I knew I couldn't work there anymore. My plan was to work until my lunch at 1:00 and then just not come back.
From 10am to 1pm, anyone who wanted an overdraft or other fee refunded got it; no questions asked. Even if they didn't ask for it, I was like "oh, I see you have a few overdraft fees from a couple weeks ago. I'll go ahead and refund those to you as a courtesy".
In those 3 hours, I think I refunded close to $1200 in fees for who-knows-how-many people. That's probably not possible now since even back then they had a primitive "AI"-like system that you had to go through to issue refunds. But it was still in beta then so we still had access to the old system to do them manually. I'm guessing that new tool got pushed to production real quick after my last day.
This is the way we should all be at our shitty jobs. Maybe not this extreme unless you know youre quitting, but sprinkle a few refunds in every week, see what you feel comfortable with and/or can get away with.
Let's face it those of us in USA aren't going to general strike or anything any time soon. Least we can do is the little rebellions.
At work (flight attendant) if someone's card declines....no it doesn't. If someone is nice i fake swipe. And i do free upgrades when it makes sense (tall people and passengers-of-size as a priority). It used to be the norm i think, but now we have to be a bit cheeky with it.
Also please use all of your sick time and vacation time every year, or you are just giving your ceo/owner a bonus.
as a tall person with bad knees, i can safely say you're doing the lord's work.
