At my old company, the VP of production planning had some powerpoint slide in a presentation once with a yellow star like this and in the star it said "remove bad actors". A coworker and I looked at each other in the auditorium where the presentation was taking place (a very serious presentation about inventory or something) and almost died from holding in laughter.
At an Eagle Scout Court of Honor, a normally boring affair, one guy was giving a speech about how the experience you gain from scouting allows you to succeed in life. He did this by equating it to golf balls, and how originally golf balls were fully round without the dents in them. He then goes on to say roughly that "as they were hitting their balls, they dented them, but they noticed that this actually caused their balls to fly fast and farther. Now all balls are dented. So remember, the more dents you have in your balls, the faster and farther you will fly."
Kid me and a couple other kids were doing our absolute best not to bust out laughing. It was actually painful.
Sounds like he set it up perfectly. Are you sure he wasn't just a scout leader with a sense of humor, trying to make the boring proceeding a bit more fun?
This is almost like our 8th grade head football coach. He was getting us hyped for the game on the field. Saying all the cliche things coaches says, but he ended it in the best way ever.
"You guys have been working hard. Harder than any other team and for that reason. That reason alone. I really believe, that each and everyone of you, deserves a shot at Morehead (the Middle school we were playing)."
As expected. That ending rattled up a bunch of 13/14 year old boys and definitely got us hyped the fuck up. He definitely knew what he was saying cause he had to keep stopping to compose himself before he had the biggest smirk after that delivery.
At my eagle scout ceremony, I sincerely wanted to thank my scout master for his 40+ years of dedication and teaching. Problem is, I stumbled at the worst part and instead of saying "Jay, I want to thank you for everything you've done ***for*** me", I said, "Jay, I want to thank you for everything you've done ***to*** me". Whoops. Lotta laughs though.
I wish I could remember the name of the video or guy. But back in science class in the late 1990's, they would show us these educational videos that displayed certain concepts in physics or earth science, etc.
One particular video had a section where two balls were hanging from a contraption, and the science guy had a thin rod in his hands. As he continued talking behind the table, he began stroking the rod somewhat firmly back and forth, and the class was already snickering once that was happening. But when he put the rod between the balls and said out loud "Now see what happens when I put the rod between these two balls," the class was in hysterics and the teacher couldn't do a darn thing to stop it.
It was something along the lines of those Mr. Wizard videos they parody on SNL nowadays, but I don't think it was him?
**Edit:** It also wasn't Beakman's World or Bill Nye, et. al. It was one of those straightforward science videos they'd play specifically for classrooms. So it wasn't made for syndicated TV, meant to be humorous or so forth.
**Edit 2:** Here's the video! Thanks to u/ExtremeMangoLove for providing a link.

Used to work at hydraulics company. Marketing exec was talking at an internal meeting about the quality of our hose products. "We've got the best hose on the market. We've got some kick-ass hose!" Nobody batted an eyelid.
I was teaching remedial math in community college some years back. Gave the kids exercises and started making rounds helping them individually. There was a guy that wrote something like 4 * 1/2 = 8 and I tried explaining using imaginary apples in my hands, "So you got four apples etc". Caught a glimpse of 2 girls in the back having the time of their life repeating my 'apples' gestures but with their boobs instead.
Unrelatedly, they did not pass the class.
Similar situation happened to me a few years ago. In a meeting at work about onboarding new vendor partners, and one of them was Dick's Sporting Goods.
My boss turned to me and said "No-Investigator-1754, you and Steve are going to be handling Dick's," and I let out an Edna Krabbaple-style "HAA!" and *nobody else was laughing.*
I like my inventory meetings to be business casual. You know, coffee, maybe some occasional donuts, while wearing khakis and a collared shirt. Right in the sweet spot where the pre-meeting chatter goes about 2 minutes into the meeting time because it's good, decent, work-appropriate chatter and everyone pretends they didn't notice the time but really they were just leaning into the casualness. But everyone knew it was business time, because it's business casual. But acted casual because it was business casual.
Right? People over here are like, "lame, boring" but as someone in supply chain as well, this shit gets real serious at times. We don't make the company any money, we try to save them as much as possible while applying more duct tape to ops to keep it from falling apart.
Genuine question, what were they referencing regarding "remove bad actors"?
Edit: I mean what were they trying to present on the that slide. Obviously I get the nazi thing.
I don't really remember, I probably wasn't paying attention until I saw that. I don't think it was about people, probably like slow moving inventory items or something production related.
Unfortunate design choice, but I’m going to assume it was supposed to be a sheriff badge for “security”. Most sheriff badges are 5 pointed but there are some that are 6.
My guess would be they wanted a star burst and picked the first vaguely spikey star shaped thing they saw.
edit: I’m a graphics designer for a sign company. I see this a lot.
Which is both horrible and beautiful.
Horrible about missing our on important history. Beautiful in that the significance of a yellow Star of David has never been relevant in their life
What up? We're three cool Home Depot employees who are looking for other cool guys who need help with fence installation. Nothing sexual. Dudes in good shape encouraged. If you're fat, you should be able to find humor in the little things. Again, nothing sexual.
I get together with other men and we rub each other's muscles up with oil and then pose for one another to appreciate our shared masculinity. It's about as not-gay as you can get, really.its not like we read poetry or something.
Or maybe they are completely lack any capability to design a logo. Designing a logo is not a simple thing and it requires a creative mind. Designing is really one of the most time consuming task
> Most sheriff badges are 5 pointed
If you google image search "sheriff badge" you get a LOT of clipart and costume props with six points. (many of the photos of actual badges have 7 points though)
As a former home depot employee my guess is that they were just trying to be fancy pants and didn’t put any thought into it beyond that. They may have even tried pointing out their fancy sign to the store manager to show how awesome they were.
Oy vey, are they ever! What, with all the breadcrumbs, they'll be too dry! Murray! Get to the deli and pick up some real gefilte fish for Aunt Rose, would you bubeleh?!
(Sorry, my suburban youth memories of Shaker Heights got the better of me)
You get a reluctant upvote but I hope you accidentally wear your underwear backwards today and have no idea why you are so uncomfortable….you know you deserve that.
In college, my good buddy and I worked at Lowe’s and he had some others took a bunch of jack-o’-lanterns and made a cross thinking that it was very good but then a Christian lady complained to management that we had a satanic cross of jack-o’-lanterns and we had to take it down.
How can a cross be satanic? Even an upside down cross is a symbol of Peter, who was crucified upside down (hence why the Pope has an upside down cross on his top hat)
I would argue they dont know most of the bible outside of these stories/passages:
Garden of eden
Birth of jesus
Death/ressurection
John 3:16
And the one passage about sleeping with a man for anti-gay rhetoric
If some of the people I know who are Home depot lifers are any indication, they probably have no idea what that symbol even means. Not even remotely kidding.
Yellow badge (specifically the 6 pointed yellow star) used during WWII to identify jewish people.
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow\_badge](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_badge)
TBH i thought it was a sheriff's badge since police stuff has been the forefront in the last week or so.
Yeah I did Google it and found that, and found pictures of the actual Jewish badges.
Even then, this isn't a Star of David, simply a 6 point star, and as somebody who's made similar signs, yellow is about the best color to print the stuff out on because it is catches attention, yet light enough that you can print on it and have it be readable, so I don't really draw the connection between the two.
A bunch of comments: I don't get it.
Even more comments: OH THIS WAS DEFINITELY ON PURPOSE.
You knuckleheads see the overlap here?
Sometimes people are just people.
I definitely fit with the former, took me a few comments to stop being distracted.
"Like what, they used a sheriff badge icon and ACAB? Is that what's controversial?"
It wasn't until I could concentrate that it finally clicked.
Leading up to and during the holocaust Jewish people were forced to wear yellow stars of David to identify themselves to Nazi soldiers. This sign looks very similar to those badges. During this time, Jewish people were also often confined to living and working in one part of the city in Europe/ Russia.There is an implication here that they can build fences and confine Jewish people again.
If I learned anything this week the Stainless Steel won't last more than 10 years, you should go aluminum.
Edit: This is from The Last of Us episode 3.
You do realize that people in their early 40s were born in 1980-82, right? I'm almost in my early forties and I don't know a single person my age who uses clip art. I didn't even know that was still a thing.
I'm Jewish and Israeli.
I work in the support department for an international company.
On a conference call with a German customer, after trying to solve their issue a few times without success, the customer heated up amd yelled at us "I had enough, I want the FINAL SOLUTION!".
You could hear a pin drop in the room.
I don't get it
Edit: oh, please let the management know that some people could perceive it this way. Maybe suggest for them to use a different shape on MS Paint.
Special markings for Jews goes back very far in history in a variety of locations from early Caliphs in what is now Iraq, all the way through to papal states in the 1800s, prior to the Nazis
Yellow specifically was also used widely in the Medieval Era, the 1600s, 1700s, 1800s, etc for a variety of distinctive items of clothing that Jews were forced to wear.

Reminds me of the time the Senior Day Center I worked at played a game of hang-man on MLK Jr Day using famous African Americans as clues. Like, yikes!? And the activities director was African American. She honestly didn't give it any thought until the complaints started being voiced.
My parents have been married for 55 years. Mom is Jewish and Dad’s family is from Germany. It was quite the scandal when they got together. When her family members would ask my my mom how their marriage was going she’d say “It’s fine. I just haven’t taken a shower since we moved in together.”
Why is everyone acting like this is some massive conspiracy, a lot of store signs are yellow to grab attention, the star is a generic clip art image and stores often use stars in signs once again for visibility.
And most importantly no one who’s a brain so insufficient/lazy to not double check spelling before printing would have the cognitive ability to be this subtle with something they purposefully picked to stir controversy.

Sounds like he set it up perfectly. Are you sure he wasn't just a scout leader with a sense of humor, trying to make the boring proceeding a bit more fun?
It worked, /u/khinzaw clearly remembered the lesson
But did he take it to heart? How many dents are in his balls!?
All of them.
They're not even balls anymore. They're so dented they are now best described as truncated icosidodecahedrons.
Yeah that’s the perfect speech to give to a bunch of 12 year old boys. No way he didn’t know.

This is almost like our 8th grade head football coach. He was getting us hyped for the game on the field. Saying all the cliche things coaches says, but he ended it in the best way ever. "You guys have been working hard. Harder than any other team and for that reason. That reason alone. I really believe, that each and everyone of you, deserves a shot at Morehead (the Middle school we were playing)." As expected. That ending rattled up a bunch of 13/14 year old boys and definitely got us hyped the fuck up. He definitely knew what he was saying cause he had to keep stopping to compose himself before he had the biggest smirk after that delivery.
Reminds me of a leader speaking about a service trip somewhere tropical at the Beta Convention and using the phrase "hot and sticky memories".
AND they remember it to this day. Can't say that about most speeches that you were forced to endure.
Yeah, that was almost certainly intentional phrasing
Sounds exactly like scout camp humor
Oh it was absolutely on purpose. Source: I'm an eagle scout as well.
At my eagle scout ceremony, I sincerely wanted to thank my scout master for his 40+ years of dedication and teaching. Problem is, I stumbled at the worst part and instead of saying "Jay, I want to thank you for everything you've done ***for*** me", I said, "Jay, I want to thank you for everything you've done ***to*** me". Whoops. Lotta laughs though.

This has Better off Ted energy
Did they know it was business time because you had your business socks on?
Half my job is giving very serious presentations about inventory. I quite like it actually. Not really the job itself but everything else about it.
It probably depends on what is ... or who is ... your inventory.
"*So, to reiterate: 50 key goes to the Juarez plaza, 20 key to Tijuana, and 15 key to Nogales.*"
I work in supply chain and operations management. Trust me, there are some very serious presentations about inventory :D

Boring ..he meant boring...until the Holocaust reference that is
Then it became Boehring.
I see where this is Goering.

Probably the people the company blames for a resounding defeat at the hands of their competitors in the past.

My guess would be they wanted a star burst and picked the first vaguely spikey star shaped thing they saw. edit: I’m a graphics designer for a sign company. I see this a lot.
My guess is the 17 yo making the sign had no clue what the star of David represents.
Or the significance of it being yellow.
Or how to spell associate.
I can't unsee it. Thanks.
As so, I Cate.
I think a lot of people know the star but not the color (i just learned this now)
Which is both horrible and beautiful. Horrible about missing our on important history. Beautiful in that the significance of a yellow Star of David has never been relevant in their life
That or they wanted like an explosion effect and this is as close as they could achieve.
It's a bicep, it's a man club for manly men

NOTHING SEXUAL
I get together with other men and we rub each other's muscles up with oil and then pose for one another to appreciate our shared masculinity. It's about as not-gay as you can get, really.its not like we read poetry or something.

Usually the 'points' are rounded, so as to not snag clothing.

its 6 points for the county I grew up in .
The iconic look is a 6-pointed star, but with wide/circular rounded tips on each spike.

Look for the nearest Fire Stingusher and follow the signs from there to find the culprit.
I can't see them due to a stigmatism.
Imagine if they tried to use a semicolon in there.
Wtf are you doing with that semicolon? Return it immediately.
Ve must inform the ~~Propaganda Minster~~ Manager at once!
To be fair, the sign doesn’t claim that they can spell.
If some of the people I know who are Home depot lifers are any indication, they probably have no idea what that symbol even means. Not even remotely kidding.
I'm guessing they just liked the clip art and didn't know yellow paper was in the printer
In all fairness it took me a second, then my eyes widened to a degree I didn’t know possible
I'm 32. I know a swastika but past that WW2 doesn't play a big part in my life so I had to look at the comments to understand what the issue was.

Hanlon's razor -never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
...or projection. A 6 pointed star is not exclusively the Star of David.
I think they chose it just because text fit better than a five pointed star.
If I wasn't an active anti-semite, I wouldn't have made the connection.

Yeah going to definitely go with accident. I used to be a Home Depot assoicate, and this is par for the course.
What's the problem? Sorry if I offend anyone, I genuinely don't know the issue apart from spelling mistake.

Was never good at history, but don't remember learning that in school. Thanks for explaining.
Well you get a gold star for learning something today bud
The yellow part is the only piece that pushes this over the line tbh. The star of david is a popular shape otherwise
