Hot take: a million dollar company is a small company. The owner better stop acting like his company is something exceptional

Never mind that surely a big company doesn't explode the second someone calls in sick. The whole sign makes no sense at all.
Hey look, a giant sign telling you to unionize
FTFY
If you want me to show up on Christmas, just pay me enough to show up on Christmas. It's really that simple, you're a million dollar company, act like it.
So, act like a million 💸 company and cover your employees' babysitting and taxi expenses. Also hire enough people.
A million dollar company could just be a warehouse and 10 employees. I don't know why they are acting like it's a lot.
Where I live, a million dollars doesn’t buy you a house. So I don’t know what this bitch is talking about.
A "million dollar company" could be pulled directly out of their ass. Jenny's illiteracy doesn't inspire confidence in her accounting skills.
They can't afford to check their grammar. You think they can afford to give their employees benefits? You expect the poor CEO to take a pay cut to pay for all of this? You'll just have to go to poor Timmy Executive and tell him he's not getting that second yacht for Christmas this year.
i mean you'd think a million dollar company would be able to afford time off for christmas
I dunno. $1M sounds like a really small company….
Hey Jenny,
Why does a million dollar company employ someone who can't spell?
Kind regards,
pyre
PS - Suck my entire dick.
My sick?
Yes your sick. If your sick is sick buy it some medicine
"we are a million dollar company, you have no choice but to come in and make your $90 on this day"
Ya ok. If we are a million dollar company then where's my share?
Fuck that mentality.
I worked in a service center for a big company back in my 20's, they would factor in callouts to their staffing plan, and use historical data for it. They also paid 2.5x time on holidays like the 25/26 December. That's what a million dollar company should look like...if you want to make sure there's coverage, you pay for it.
Nothing says “million-dollar company” more than a printed-out email pinned to a corkboard.
a company worth 1 million is basically a 1-5 person office.
One of them ain't much of a person
Hire enough staff that a few missing makes no difference to operations.
You're a million dollar company. Act like it.
Also, pretty sure my company got sold for a lot more than that and we're amateur as fuck.
I've worked with Fortune 100 companies that were total Mickey Mouse outfits.
I got sued by a big supplier over literally nothing, after I had refused to honor an illegal clause in a contract (which literally would have put me out of business, so it was a serious issue). They couldn't sue me for that, so they claimed I hadn't returned some rented equipment, which was a lie. But they said that I better pay up ($10K), because who did I think the judge was going to believe, some loser (their lawyer's word), or a Fortune 500 company? I didn't say it, but in MY county, I doubted the judge was going to favor the big corporation.
When we got to court, I had my lawyer ask me about my new supplier's inventory control system, and explained how the new system had bar codes, and every piece of gear is carefully tracked. The company that was suing me, couldn't even tell the court how many they had in stock, how many they rented out, etc.
The judge looked at the Plaintiffs, and said, "This is the most amateurish inventory control system I've ever seen. I don't understand how you got to be a Fortune 500 company by doing business this way. You expect me to tell this man to pay you $10,000, when you don't even know if the equipment is actually missing?"
She found for me, AND made them pay my legal fees. After two years of worry, it was one of the most satisfying days of my life.
someone is overly excited for a million dollar company
We are a million-dollar company. Let's act like one.
Okay so that means you'll schedule several people to be on-call, right?
Right? I work for an actual megacorp and our policy is almost the exact opposite on every point.
Sick workers make more sick: don't work and feel better faster. Distracted workers makes mistakes and cause problems: don't work and take care of your kid. Rested workers work better: take the time around the holidays off entirely. Productivity is crap then anyway and with so many vacations it's easier to plan around a block where nothing happens than to deal with random teams having unpredictable delays. Car broken? Expense a Lyft. We have a corporate account and your ride to work is a rounding error compared to the sales visits.
If you're going to invoke money you should actually understand how big companies function and view money.
Okay then a million dollar company will pay for the Uber
The irony of that last statement.
This would just make me call off out of pure spite
I am not a million dollar company I am a wage slave that gets treated like a disposable sack of shit by said Million Dollar Company. And I won’t be sacrificing my or my family’s health for their benefit.
Not even for the arrogance or lack of a weekend; but for the poor grammar and spelling. I don't wanna work for a moron.
Hey Jenny, go fuck yourself.
But am I a millon dollar employee?
Million dollar company's war on Christmas.
"We are a million dollar company"
- Doesn't know the difference between "your" and "you're".
- Can't pay for parental leave.
- Can't pay for sick day benefits.
- Can't give employees a decent wage to afford transport that doesn't break down.
'We' are an exploited labour force whose labour value is stolen by greedy, arrogant psychopaths. 'We' have only so much that can be taken before something snaps and I'm guessing 'You' are the closest company representative within our reach.
I feel like Jenny is the kind of person where if anyone would ever decide to string her up from a tree that loads of people would come to watch and nobody would cut her down.
Everybody would just watch and feel a weight lifted from their shoulders
