  As someone who works in fast foot, we were also trained on it.

    It’s called 4 am shift, or surprise

  This might be an insightful post if it weren’t so hilariously poorly timed.

  From JUST a couple weeks ago: McDonald’s employee to face murder charge after shooting NC woman inside restaurant, police say

    To be fair, the employee was fired.

      Should just transfer them to another one in the next town over after a paid 3 month leave.

      And they stand a much greater chance of going to jail.

      Sure, and that’s great…but the topic is ‘de-escalation skills’. I’m just pointing out the obvious irony.

    Guess what? That single incident is in no way indicative of an overall tendency. Hundreds if not thousands of cops needlessly shooting people every single year, though? THAT’S a significant data point!

    Believe it or not, shooting customers is against company policy at most fast food chains.

      So you are saying that their de-escalation skills were not better than police?

    I wonder how many cops have shot and killed people in that time period?

    I wonder if there are more McDonald’s employees than cops?

      I wonder how many of those cops faced murder charges?

    One case of a violent McDonald’s employee VS how many unnecessary violent cops?

      I’m just pointing out the hilariously poor timing.

      If you are going to claim that McDonald’s employees have superior de-escalation skills to police…the absolute worst time to try and make that claim is fresh after a McDonalds employee murders a customer and the national news is still talking about it.

    Didn’t get a paid vacation for it.

  • Shialac@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    And how many people did the cops murder in that time?

• Kmcb182@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  Well that escalated quickly.

  And they don’t have guns to defend themselves harass minorities so they have to deescalate or they could be in danger

  Because of the Implication!

  Police are people too, but even on a subconscious level no one in the public is really going to treat them that way. It’s impossible to treat someone who can theoretically decide your fate on a whim as an equal. The badge gives them control over you, to the extent that it’s difficult to even have a casual conversation with them for fear of accidentally revealing something about yourself that you don’t want them to know.

  When it comes to de-escalation, it’s even harder, since someone who is in a highly aggressive or stressful situation understands their freedom or even life may be on the line and is that much more likely to act in an irrational way. It’s the same effect you see when you back an animal into a corner. They’ll snap at you and fight for their life even if it’s obvious they won’t come out on top.

  Anyone who agrees with this post is arguing for capitalism

    I am curious about your reasoning. Care to go on to deal?
