    They do this on purpose, right? It’s some kind of conditioned obedience through brutality thing?

    I worked at a few places that made these “gestures” to the underpaid/overworked suckers.

    one of the key features of this kind of thing was to make absolutely certain the distribution process centered the experience of the HR shitheads that dreamed it up and absolutely prevented any organized, anonymous rejection of it.

    the last thing any boss wants to see is a shitload of these overflowing a garbage can and no fucking clue who to retaliate against.

    one of my earliest shit jobs they were walking around handing out t-shirts while we were all busy on the phones, hating life, and I told my boss I was just going to hold my trash can aloft and tell them to deposit it there. he said a VP was walking around for the smile parade so if I did, they’d put me on an unrecoverable pip and I’d be gone.

    honestly, receiving little shit like this at a shit job is cruel. instead of paying a bunch of higher salary people to dream this up and put it together, just give us a bonus you assholes. even if it’s just a one off of 10 bucks.

    cash is king.

    I’m guessing the Starburst and Tootsie roll are behind the label, but it’d be funnier if they were just not in the bag.

      if you gave the rat an insultingly small pellet after giving them regular sized pellets would they even bother to eat the small pellet?

        There’s a whole lot of behavioral science to this, but you’re definitely on to something. There are lots of experiments on what it takes to make a rat regard you with disgust as say “I pushed the lever for fucking this?”

        My rats will act like they’re starving and when I open the cage to give them food pellets they’ll just stare at them like “oh nvm we thought you had more yogurt treats, no thanks”.

        Animals absolutely have a sense of fairness and equity. They also have a wtf WTF is this shit response. Fine I’ll take it, but I know you’re holding out.

      Oh fuck yeah put me in there I know exactly how I could get the pellet. I’d get so many pellets. I just pull the lever it’s literally so easy.

        If you pull the lever good enough, one day you could become the principal investigator of an animal testing facility (just like your boss)!
