Hello all, specially to the Swiss German speakers in the sub. I don’t speak Swiss German at all but I was recently sent a Youtube video: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcNs5vnzoB4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcNs5vnzoB4)

I would just like to understand what is funny or not funny about the video?

Some context behind my question: So I was doing something for work that a Swiss colleague blocked, apparently for not following a certain process. Colleague sent out an email and attached the video. Turns out the process was not even approved and said colleague was not even supposed to be sticking his nose into our business. Apparently, someone took offense with the video and escalated to management.

  1. I only watched the first minute or so, but it’s a comedy routine about people wasting other people’s time.

  2. it is rude to send this as a response because he basically complains how stupid and slow and time wasting people are.

  3. with the video he prob wanted to tell you, that you stole his time, by not thinking of what you were doing, by whatever you were doing and he did not like it.

    aside from the coworker being an ass to you. nothing about the video directly seems particular offensive, maybe ‘ageist’? (and i am even loath to use that word, given thats a dumb word and this is comedy anyway.)
