>After complaining at work and hoping to enact change, a class of interns was met with a very unexpected outcome.
>A blog post on askamanager.com says that a reader recently scored a summer position at a company within the field the individual hopes to work in post-graduation. “Even though the division I was hired to work in doesn’t deal with clients or customers, there still was a very strict dress code,” the person wrote, adding that they felt the clothing rules were “overly strict” but weren’t going to complain. That is, “until I noticed one of the workers always wore flat shoes that were made from a fabric other than leather, or running shoes, even though both of these things were contrary to the dress code.”
>Angered by the hypocrisy, the reader rallied other interns, and the group wrote a proposal, along with a petition signed by the whole class (minus one who declined to participate). The request mostly focused on footwear, asking for non-dress shoes that would fit under a more business casual dress code, but also asked if it was possible for the workers to not have to wear suits and/or blazers in favor of a more casual but still professional dress code.
>The next day, everyone who signed was called into a meeting, where the lot was informed that due to their “unprofessional behavior,” they were being let go. “We were told to hand in our ID badges and to gather our things and leave the property ASAP,” the post reads. The young adults were shocked and weren’t given a chance to defend their actions. But that’s not the worst part. “Just before the meeting ended, one of the managers told us that the worker who was allowed to disobey the dress code was a former soldier who lost her leg and was therefore given permission to wear whatever kind of shoes she could walk in. You can’t even tell, and if we had known about this we would have factored it into our argument.”

Fucking millenial scum, I'm laughing my ass off.
Yeah employers really love it when workers organize to complain and try to use intimidation and BLM tactics to get their way.

When will people learn that the reason for business attire is not to look good - you put on the uncomfortable, hot clothes to prove that you made an effort. You walking around with a tie in 35 degrees proves to your manager that you care.

This has to have something to do with them having shit parents. My parents instilled into me from an early age that life isn't fair; you deal with the bullshit until you get to make the rules, something these overgrown children never learned apparently.
Are we the worst generation on average?
William Allen
It must really ramp up hard then. I'm 31 and didn't deal with any of these millenial behaviors.

No, shithead.
Millennials were born between 1980 and 2000.
Anyone born after 2000 is Gen Z.
Fucking millennials either believe everyone is a Millennial or no one is.

Of course it is. They probably rallied 10 000 'friends' to harass the employees/employers online, write bullshit reviews and threats all over the place, got the home phone numbers of the bosses and starting calling them, etc.
The limits of these entitled fuckwits knows no bounds, they will literally physically assault someone for disagreeing with them, then bitch about it on twitter and lie until the person they assaulted gets arrested and is forced to issue an apology.
It's the same thing that happens to comedians and celebrities when they say something "offensive" on tv and make the rounds apologizing on Conan and Oprah for the next 2 weeks. Except now it can happen to an every day Joe thanks to social justice.

I'd likely feel a mix of joy, in that my activist coworkers got their just reward, but also pissed that I am now in charge of what they were doing.

>MILLENNIALLLLLLSSSSSS
Exactly, and it's mostly if not entirely women who feel like they should be above dress codes 99% of all men just live with.
They ALWAYS look for ways to engage in victim-manufacturing to depict themselves as victims where they then declare it "necessary" for them to engage in social engineering to transform everyone else's shit to comply to their standards.
Nathan Wilson
What boggles my mind is that these people literally had no bargaining power in the first place. What were they thinking that they thought that the company would relent to their demands? Usually when people go on strike or protest a company, they have a skill that would actually hurt the company but these are just interns that could be replace in no time.

Doesn't matter.
The average leftist millenial is so stuck-up arrogant that he or she literally believes all rules should revolve around their feelings.
David Evans
While I find the story funny by just how stupid they are and how bad they got btfo I don't see a point in wearing a full 3 piece suit for a simple intern job that doesn't even talk to customers.
All the offices I've worked at either abandons the dress code or didn't have it. It was just don't look like a fucking stoner bumb. Not only was it much more comfortable for us but productivity went up too.
The only reason I see even wearing a suit is if you are in high positions.
Matthew Adams
>work in IT >have a casual dress code (khakis, no t-shirts), but no one ever follows it >not even upper management questions us because they think we can hijack their work at any time (which we can, since everything is server-side now)
It's called making a name for yourself. Once you do, you can get away with alot of things that breaks the rules. Millennials have it in their minds that they are hot shit just coming out of their liberal indoctrination camps
These retards are the reason why experience is valued more than education, even moreso than before

The pointing autist in the back looks like a guy I went to high school with. He worked at Walmart, too. Probably still does.
the funniest thing about this to me is if the women just asked the privileged handicap woman why she was allowed to wear the shoes it wouldn't have happened
Blake Brown
Excellent. Hopefully it was a wakeup call for those little shits.
Lucas Torres
You're a night shift too aren't you. your break room is nicer than mine.

I work in a clinical laboratory, and we still get niggers in sweatpants and beanies, sheboons with bizarre, ugly hairstyles, and pretty much everyone wears jeans except the inherently classy people.
Apparently they banned shorts a few months before I was hired. Too bad, those lab coats get fucking hot.

If the job you need to do relies upon drawing a straight line without a ruler, the only consideration to clothing that truely matters is if that clothing restricts your physical ability to perform the required task. So long as you succeed in that task, nothing else matters.
Every single thing else is merely someone lording their power over you and is the mark of a leader who shouldn't be followed. School uniform arguements bull shit all over again.
Hunter Bell
The why doesn't matter. It's their damn business, they can enforce whatever dress code they like, and interns who don't like it can fuck off and find some other job that caters to their feelings. I'm guessing you'd be one of the entitled shits who joined their little crusade.
Easton Rivera
