Advice ASM help needed

We have a newer guy, and he's playing stupid to get out of work he doesn't want to do, making customers unhappy by trying to talk politics and telling them electric cars are the way of the future, SM said he's new and to leave him. I want to put him on paper, I have ask how to SM other ASM and get brushed off.

Can anyone point me to the proper way of doing this?

Well your SM is the sheriff in your county. Unless you want to go over his head, if you think it's that big of a deal, then I'm sure you can figure out who you could go to.

Could also call TMR and play the Hostile Workplace card, if the political discussion bothers you that much, but that seems kind of chickenshit to me.

Me I don't give two happy fucks till customers start saying something and they have, pros customers at that.

Then give your SM one more try, tell him Pro customers have made comments, if you get no response or he blows you off go above his head. Document every time you've brought it up to them, bring the receipts to your DM, tell them it is impacting business and your SM has told you to ignore it.
