No, it’s filling out surveys and dismissing the result. I’m pretty sure.

They did you a favor

Just find one thing to lightly bitch about so they feel engaged. You can’t just say everything is fine because they know that’s bullshit.

Ah yes, the old “lazy, entitled” employee doing the work that was formerly performed by an entire team. I know them well.

Yeah, it’s an interesting process for sure. I took an Org Leadership course as part of my MS and it seems like it was an idea born out of good intentions with real promise that has (of course) been weaponized and turned against workers because everything is. You’re really supposed to use it to find low-hanging fruit to fix to keep the workers happy. But nobody does that.

Unfortunately, the pizza budget line item was deleted and there’s nothing we can do about it.

They want workers, just a certain kind of worker.

This is bad advice. Do this and your name will go on the Problem List. Now, if you don’t care about getting laid off, go nuts.

They know the top earners will scab if they wait long enough.

“Listen, we’re a family here…”

Hell yeah!

I’m betting they make a deal. As insulting as UPS’ initial counter was, they want to start from as strong a place as possible so they can screw over workers no matter where they settle.

Non-algorithmic ordering, auto-collapse replies after a certain user-preferred setting.

Hey, sometimes it works!

I also work in Finance and it is the most frustrating shit. If these people who don’t do anything weren’t actively meddling in the work of people who do, things would be better off.

Report them to the government. It’s probably pointless but it will make some director’s life hard maybe for a couple days.

I didn’t even know this was a thing, sounds cool.

I think the pivot to the right in the white working class is overstated. These people overwhelmingly live vastly more comfortable existences than minorities of the same status. These people were always right wing socially, they can afford to vote on social issues (broadly, speaking). When you use college education as the dividing line, you obscure the dynamics.

There’s value in a feedback loop but not if it’s just gonna be handwaved.

I loved my Genesis. Sonic 2 forever.
