Since when job should be fun? Who cares they are rude? It's not like there is some law you must be nice to employee, especially if they are bothering you. Live

Since when job should be fun? Who cares they are rude? It's not like there is some law you must be nice to employee, especially if they are bothering you. Lived in China for years and yes, IKEA in Beijing is occupied by families enjoying bedrooms and living rooms, sleeping there, hanging there, but I've never seen it as issue and never seen any conflicts, that's just how it works there and I can understand these people considering temperatures in China and some of them not having AC (or saving money). By your logic you could complain about Chinese/Asians not giving tips or bringing their own drinks to restaurants. These both may seem outrageous to American SJW, but I find it as European actually very nice and logical behavior. Why should I be giving any tips to someone getting salary, do you give tips to policeman, clerk in supermarket or McD staff? Doesn't business ear enough money from the food I order that they need to rob me on drinks as well? Well, I might as well eat at home, if they like it more, if they have problem with me bringing my own drink.

> Since when job should be fun? I love your attitude, seriously. Many, many people would actually be happier in life if they knew their job doesn’t owe them everything. My use of “not fun” was meant to be understatement, a gentle Way of saying that working conditions are highly unpleasant. And while I don’t feel everyone’s jobs have to be fun, I do think it’s my moral obligation not to darken anyone’s days if I can avoid it. > By your logic you could complain about Chinese/Asians not giving tips or bringing their own drinks to restaurants. And don’t worry, I find those practices to be just as unpleasant. My wife and I laugh about it routinely. > Why should I be giving any tips to someone getting salary, do you give tips to policeman, clerk in supermarket or McD staff? You may have chosen the wrong hacker news person for this discussion. It’s illegal to give tips to policeman, but I regularly give tips to both clerks in the supermarket and McDonald’s. > Doesn't business earn enough money from the food I order that they need to rob me on drinks as well? Preach, brother! The whole concept of tips is alien to me because if it’s inconsistency in the application. I am a generous tipper but I am completely baffled as to why I should tip some people versus others. But what I do know is that everyone loves to get tips. And if I can afford it, why not make the day a little bit better? > Well, I might as well eat at home, if they like it more, if they have problem with me bringing my own drink. Judging from the rest of your message I think that’s a great idea

If the elders and families on the periphery can’t catch a break at capitalism’s expense in PRC then we are done. > Doesn’t business ear enough money from the food I order that they need to rob me on drinks as well? Exactly!

> These both may seem outrageous to American SJW Yes-- for far too long we've been putting up with these insufferable American SJWs and their reflexive defense of the private property rights of megacorporations to refuse service to loiterers? I unironically love this definition of SJW and vow to use it in all future HN posts where I can shoe-horn it in. Edit: clarification
