Our Boss Loves Making Empty Promises

I worked for a restaurant, and our boss loved making empty promises about giving us restaurant shares.

The boss said we would start with zero shares, but we could earn 0.01% for every two hours of overtime, covering someone else’s work or saving the restaurant 1,000 bucks.

I suggested she write this down in an official document and have someone track it properly.

She just smiled and told everyone to work harder. She never actually put it in writing.

The experienced staff did not believe her, but one prep cook took it seriously.
