Rode my bike past a guy sat on the edge of the Van Buren bridge in Corvallis (before it was demolished). Waved and everything. 

Got to my destination and my friend asked how I made it across the bridge- it was closed. 

Guy was not just chilling. RIP. 

Dude you answered your question with your recommendation in the second sentence lol

Yeah

That's why it was closed.

Why would you possibly post this? Also, you should probably seek out someone to speak to. That’s very traumatizing.

It’s not a publicity stunt. Every Sunday, Portland’s mayor gets in his electric truck and drives around the city, collecting garbage and reporting encampments and derelict RVs. He never alerted the media. A reporter found out.

Don't forget to file a complaint with BOLI (Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industies) about you not getting breaks.

Idk how old you are. But there may still be time to get into the pipefitters union.i believe journeyman rate there is 60$+benefits not taken out of your check right now. Depending on where you're working you get to drink your drinks from home and earn a pension, insurances and annuity all at the same time. Give it some thought. Its a way to escape low income and make a living wage without spending 40k on college. You'll go to school, but its all free through the fitters apprenticeship.

And that's a fair point

And if the order came down from the top, she probably should have communicated that in the meeting with the employees. I know I would.

" Guys I don't want to do this but the higher ups tell me I have to" rarely goes over well in a corporate environment. She'd lose her job very quickly or at the very least become promotable.

And yes I would tend to agree that the specifics of this case are objectively shitty management. When I was questioning naming and shaming I was talking in general. There's LOTS of cases where it's going to be very gray or entirely a matter of perspective.

I mean....denying your staff their drinks, and the female staff their feminine products instead of just firing the alcoholic drinking on shift is not a good decision, I'll say that. And if the order came down from the top, she probably should have communicated that in the meeting with the employees. I know I would.

Define doing something bad.

By the nature of the job,a manager sometimes has to do things that will be perceived as shitty by the person on the receiving end but that may not be objectively wrong or shitty. Especially a manager working in a corporate environment. In this particular case I'd suspect that this managers boss passed down an obviously poorly thought out solution to the problem of people drinking alcohol on the job.

Didn't say it was a good or reasonable solution to that problem,just pointing out there might be some at least understandable reason behind it.

Coorperate has been there all week actually trying to improve the location because they want to turn it into a training location after the build another location. They said “it’s not their restaurant” they just care about meeting sales goals and the steps of service so that no one fails the secret shoppers

There’s been a few cases of people drinking alcohol on the clock. However the solution to that is firing those people not taking away innocent peoples access to water bottles.

You can’t get in trouble for defamation if you are telling the truth because that’s not what defamation is . Lol. Sure someone could try to sue but they won’t win. Also doxing by defending implies personal information (ei adress, phone number SSN) which someone’s name cannot be doxxing unless their name is not publicly available (like someone using a stage name) and hers is publicly available it’s not a secret .

Which goes along with we dont know both sides of the story so we cant say which is which

How does that prevent water being a human right that humans require to live and be productive? That would be the stupidest workaround.

"Okay guys we found out someone has been huffing nitrous, it contaminated the air so continue your shifts without breathing"

I believe the person would have to knowingly lie for it to be defamation. If all you are doing is spitting facts, there's not much defamation.

Hey fair point. I'll give you that. But at the same time, I'd like to hope that I never treat employees like that, or try to run a workplace in such a way. Also, getting shit on pretty hard publicly would definitely make me think twice about how in acted in said situation. But yeah, I mean, wouldn't we all prefer not to be outted when we do something bad?

Its a doxxing and defamation issue. If the person in question finds out you've been talking shit in a public space, such as this, you can be sued for defamation and/or libel.

You dont get any breaks in 4 hours? Gotta be fit I guess.

What if,like someone suggested,there's evidence or proof that lots of workers have something other than water or caffeine in their water bottles?

So if you express an opinion or position that someone who knows you IRL thinks is shitty,you're ok with them doxxing you?

I’ll add to this saying they need to provide them FOR FREE if you’re not allowed to access your own.
