[u/Ok_Beautiful7793 → u/Mugstotheceiling]

Hiding in the freezer and giggling 🤭

[u/Ashamed_Medium1787 → u/Ok_Beautiful7793]

Ill give you your raise here’s your raise-liar liar

[u/RickKassidy]

Maybe he thought you said ‘no raisins’?

[u/igotnothineither]

Sometimes the “boss” has no control over raises so they do what they can (out of their own pocket) to keep moral up. Currently in a fuck my boss situation.

[u/Ok_Beautiful7793 → u/igotnothineither]

Unfortunately no, our gm informed us this was something from the owners

[u/DM_ME_AUTISTIC_TIDDY]

Eat your boss, become the boss, run your workplace as a co-operative.

[u/BigNigori]

they raised your blood sugar. should have been more specific

[u/ac3_151]

lol damn looks like a good cookie though but yeah..

[u/Ok_Beautiful7793 → u/ac3_151]

I mean it was pretty tasty

[u/cerart939 → u/Ok_Beautiful7793]

THAT'S HOW THEY GET YOU!

.. But yeah, my company sends those out and they are really good. Damnit.

[u/Ralfton → u/ac3_151]

Cheryl's Cookies are exceptional. 👌🏼

[u/crazylittlemermaid → u/Ralfton]

I have paid stupid money to get Cheryl's Cookies delivered to me since I no longer live close to a shop.

[u/LurkmasterP]

"how do I make them stop complaining about no raises? Stuff something in their complaining-about-no-raises holes."

[u/HorizonsReptile]

One weekend I was the only one on shift for the full day in a busy store. Boss: "Want me to buy you a pizza?" I would like more help :(

[u/Ok_Beautiful7793 → u/HorizonsReptile]

I would have crashed out right there, demanding we either close for the day or we get more people on shift 💀

[u/nstntmlk]

[u/yoshibike]

Lmfao my retail job sent out this poll for what kind of rewards/treats we prefer like for making sales goals or for working black Friday.

For some reason they were so shook that the majority of people voted saying we'd prefer each store get gift cards to buy our own treats, over getting Cheryl's cookies. So shook, that they sent out a new pole and asked us to really consider it.

Just say you have some deal with Cheryl's if you're gonna have a problem with how we answer the poll 😭💀

[u/FluidLock]

We need to stop accepting free food and snacks from bosses for “appreciation” that they use to get away with not giving raises

[u/limbodog]

It's just as good!

[u/Pork_Chompk]

Problem sorted, then.

[u/RookFett]

Unless there is a gold coin in the middle, I would return it and find a new job!

[u/quinangua]

[u/Beneficial_League990]

Right?! Cookies are cute and all, but bills aren’t getting paid in sugar. Where’s the raise though?

[u/Horror-Atmosphere-90]

Your kind and generous boss probably spent at least a buck on that there cookie!

[u/ahesson472]

Lol yep and when you can't have sugar it's worse

[u/JunkMale975]

Looks more like “A” cookie.

[u/ramriot]

What did we say about accepting 3rd party cookies?

[u/PreviousFly4996]

Yess! nothings nicer when you get a raise. Now, let me taste that cookie.

[u/ContributionAny3368]

The Team: "Raises?"

The Boss: "... I've got Raisin Cookies for yall! 🥰😊"

[u/Yaughl]

That’s not even a good cookie. That looks like mass produced over sweetened Walmart garbage.

[u/LNinefingers → u/Yaughl]

25 years ago Cheryl’s was a premium brand and their products were fantastic.

You know the rest of the story: they were bought and the enshittification began. Now it’s garbage. Another once great thing sacrificed on the altar of corporate profits.

[u/Ralfton → u/LNinefingers]

Noooooooo 😭 I've just responded to several comments singing their praises! But I haven't had them in at least 4 years, so it's entirely probable you're correct. Not to put this all on you, but this revelation may have ruined my week... Lol

[u/LNinefingers → u/Ralfton]

Decades back, they sold -I shit you not- the best cinnamon rolls I’ve ever had in my life.

[u/Ralfton → u/LNinefingers]

I believe it. My mom shipped a box across the country for my birthday one time, and my friends flipped their shit.

[u/Ralfton]

I mean, they're Cheryl's Cookies, idk why you're complaining. IYKYK

/s

[u/The_Organic_Robot]

Well by the look of your soft feminine hands it's doesn't look like you work too hard anyway.

[u/Ok_Beautiful7793 → u/The_Organic_Robot]

I work really hard tho T-T I literally destroy my dream body goals for this job

[u/The_Organic_Robot → u/Ok_Beautiful7793]

Don't pay no mind to me, Im just being a fool and what do you mean? Doesn't that profile up there say you're 16?

[u/Ok_Beautiful7793 → u/The_Organic_Robot]

And?

[u/The_Organic_Robot → u/Ok_Beautiful7793]

Gave up dreams? You're still having wo wo nightmares. How had you destroyed your dreams if you haven't been able to start to live them yet?

[u/Ok_Beautiful7793 → u/The_Organic_Robot]

Huh?

[u/The_Organic_Robot → u/Ok_Beautiful7793]

Well even dream body goals. What do you mean?

[u/twohedwlf]

A cookie and no raise beats no cookie and no raise.

[u/CrownEatingParasite]

Cheap, shitty cookie too.

[u/Ok-Mouse5446]

Ahh... Late stage capitalism at it's finest.
