A lot of time, too. One of the first things they mentioned was “you shouldn’t have banned me”. They were one of the first people in the poll. Literally refreshing the page often enough to see a newly featured post

I famously did my work study while developing a coke habit and flunking out of my program. Did a very good job at my work study duties though

Middle management is largely bullshit, but bullshit is not the same as low-effort. Graeber saws that corporate lawyers tend to identify their jobs as bullshit, but their subcategory is goons. The only reason a corporation needs an army of lawyers is to defend against other corporations’ armies of lawyers. There’s still plenty of work to be done. It’s just not work that’s fundamental to the functioning of society

Bullshit job haver here. I got hired by a local business whose management style is best described as chaotic neutral. I overachieved automating parts of my job via spreadsheet macros and showed them off to the right people and when my manager’s position opened up (our departments were always shuffling around because we were growing like mad) I was the only one left in department. By the end of the pandemic, I had automated away the entire job without telling anyone and worked just enough to keep up the act. Oddly enough, I was in constant stress between my life having no purpose and being under constant stress of feeling like I’m gonna get found out and fired. If I didn’t have a few recurring meetings each week, I could have died and no one would have noticed

It was helpful that you did answer every option. People only responding to the ones they agree with just puts all of them at 100%

I don’t think it was one of us. After the poll was locked, a couple of them said “kek” and called me a janny. About shows you who we’re dealing with

The only other site that has pronouns next to names is LinkdIn and they only show you other people’s pronouns if yours are set, like some kind of weird gender dog whistle

No, 47 people rated the “negative” option. On average, they only agreed with it 2.4%

Starbucks did it. It’s very much on the table. But if they got this far they likely have a strike fund and will continue organizing and collaborating with other stores
