Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.

7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body

MODERATORS
I'm sorry you're getting down voted. I normally don't respond since this site is mostly power users who ban people who disagree and call them out.
I can't believe the toxicity of this site where if you don't make wild assumptions based on a single article, somehow you're in the wrong. I get people are anti corporation here but fuck me. There's so many possibilities that could inferred and be equally valid.
Manager had alerted head office and didn't mention it because they hadn't received a reply.
Manager hadn't alerted head office yet but did after the call.
Manager didn't explain themselves properly on phone and had contacted head office but didn't tell customer.
Manager did alert head office and told the customer, but that information wasn't relayed to the author of this article.
Manager did alert head office and told the customer, that information was relayed to the author of this article but they forgot to include or chose not to include it.
So many options but somehow you're in the wrong for not assuming the worst of someone because they're in a slightly higher position of power.
The thing is, honestly I'm pretty anti corporate myself. I just didn't read anything in this article that immediately rang huge "fuck corporate" bells.
Downvotes don't bother me much. This place is more like reddit that it would like to admit, with people just following the flow.
Thanks for your comment. It's nice to know sometimes that you aren't alone in holding an opinion.
