Hear me out, if I were Jimmy’s boss, and he were to say “that’s what I said, sodium chloride” right in front of my fucking face, I would’ve fired him right away, because he’s nothing more than an arrogant, autistic little son of a bitch, and I didn’t say that ironically. He’s not an “intellectual” in any way for using scientific terms in everyday life or doing complex maths in his head when there’s a fucking calculator right in front of him, it’s just his pathetic attempt at seeking validation in his workplace and trying to convince us that he’s living in this cruel environment where everyone hates “smart” nerdy kids like him. Just by looking at the way he said “Just a little sodium chloride”, or the fact that he said that phrase in the first place, you can tell that he wants EVERYONE around him to know what sodium chloride is, when in reality, nobody gives a shit…! Skeet doesn’t give a shit…! Or maybe Skeet DOES know that salt is made up of sodium chloride, but he simply doesn’t use that terminology in his everyday life because it’s impractical and unnecessary, and you can just say SALT. That’d be like saying “I’m going to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”, when you could’ve just said “I’m going to the UK”. The same can be said with the cashier case, yeah, you can do maths in your head, but who gives a shit? You could just push the buttons and let the machine calculate the price for you and also track the purchase in the inventory so that the restaurant can keep track of the sales of their product, it’s not going to earn you the fucking “Employee of the Month” title, you’re not at school, you’re not working at NASA, and you’re not working in your lab either, you’re working at a fucking fast food restaurant, just do your fucking job and get your paycheck. Nobody wants a self-righteous smartass working at a shitty bootleg McDonald’s.
And regarding to the paycheck thing, stop defending Jimmy because Skeet paid him below minimum wage. Minimum wage means nothing to him, in fact, he should be thankful for being paid at all in the first place.
Anyways, rant over, hope you’re having a good day.
