Maybe it’s so people are patient with their English? Have you worked in retail? People are cunts.
Context helps, where’d you get the picture?
What here has you so triggered?
Op and his white knight bullshit 🤡
Always there to be offended on someone else’s behalf.
I worked for them for a while, mad for gimmicky bullshit. Just look at their vans going around.
Would you ever just feck off with this baiting shite. If they put the t shirts on willingly who cares. You have no idea of the context of the situation. Stop assuming everyone trying to do something nice for people is out for their own gain. It says more about you than it does them.
Did the shop put this out there to promote their business? If not, I’d suggest plastering their image on Reddit is also in bad taste.
You just know the first question they get is
“What’s the weather like in Ukraine?”
Just got the stock of new Ukrainians in guys. Get em before they go home
I think it’s photoshop, if you zoom in on the edges of them it looks unnatural
And a nice shade of Russian red flag on the t-shirts oof!
How much are they?
Criiiiinge.
Not arguing for or against here but just want to ask, Why is it in bad taste?
Def real and good for them. No issue w this
Does seem a bit bad tasty.. sort of emplies Mr price rescued them from Ukraine? But then maybe they did, fuck knows.
Has the same vibe as people posting images of themselves giving the homeless money or whatever, net good, but you wish they were doing it for the right reasons rather than just self promotion.
“LOOK HOW NICE OUR COMPANY IS FOR HIRING PEOPLE WHO ARE DESPERATE AND PAYING THEM AS LITTLE AS WE LEGALLY ARE ALLOWED TO” 🙄
Why do you think the Irish government wanted so many refugees? Staff can’t be got!
Absolute shit hole of a company. HR can’t see beyond their own egos.
If this is real, it’s pretty bad taste.
Ultimately it’s up to the staff if they take offence to it but I think it’s pretty shitty to have them wearing tshirts that basically say “I’m a charity case and I’m only working here because Mr Price are so noble”.
These people are refugees. That doesn’t make them lesser people. Let them have their dignity.
Edit: adding another point
I doubt these two would feel comfortable saying no to wearing tshirts like this, given they are probably desperate for work.
Can any staff member choose to wear it? If no then it’s not allowed or okay
It’s literally workplace discrimination, even if you want to dress it up as being a helpful thing for them
It’s supposed to be sympathetic, not in bad taste.
Mr Price just needing to flaunt that they hired some Ukranians to try and get advertising and praise. Feels very weird and near predatory. Happy these two got jobs though.
Yeah that’s a bit weird. I mean I get they want to show they’re doing something.. just put it the southside people ..
so its basically business as usual, hire the cheapest possible workers from eastern europe who will put up with shit locals won’t, then get surprised when they leave your business
Mr Price is a terrible place to work , and seems to be run by gobshites, try ringing their head office and listen to the automated response.
Thanks for caring OP
That would be a Mr Price kind of stunt. €10.30 an hour.
The company’s logo is just too far
I really hope this is a joke… 🙄
Why..actually never saw it that way at all? Is it the angle they are marketing their brand in this way?
Glad to see people realize what this company is actually like! Really distasteful but I’d expect nothing less from them.
Well, it’s too BIG. And the “price” tag don’t help.
Wtf. The ethics of this is astounding. Treating people like objects.
Being a graphic designer who has seen Mr Price signage then I’d say bad taste is very on brand for them…
Don’t be snorting at everyone OP get out and play.
Virtue signalling all the way
Ye how dare they give them jobs and let people know that they’ve been through one of the hardest things imaginable
Yes. I do hope it’s a joke
A bit cringe.
Lol what the fuck. Weird. But nothing to be crying about
Can you imagine being signalled out like that and having every auld lad in asking you questions about everything. Couldn’t be arsed, let me pack my shelves in peace and not have to think about everything else going on back home
War is only on for two weeks!
Unreal that we have people in jobs already.
44,000 people on the PUP that are refusing to go do lower paid jobs.
The cynic in me thinks is beyond coincidence that we have 200k Ukrainians coming over to fill those jobs.
Meah, I am fine with this. I might be extra friendly.
Probably don’t want to be confused with being Russian
