Isn’t it wonderful when your VPN client refuses to connect repeatedly until you realize you need to reboot your PC or restart the VPN service… and then go change your underwear.
Me when I badge into my office, and the reader doesn’t let me in on the first swipe.
“Is anyone else constantly getting logged out of slack?” - The last message I ever got from my favourite co-worker.
This is how they make you a job slave - by fear.
This hit too close to home. I’m now in my second forced job change in 3 years, and honestly I’m trying to make the most of it by using this job change to move to a larger city, just like how I used my last job change for a big bump in pay and benefits. It’s been a goal to move for better resources for my special needs child, but now it’s also about ensuring more resiliencey in my finances because if the next place lays me off I’ll actually have no shortage of places to work within a 30 minute commute rather than commuting an hour like I did a year and a half ago and like I’m likely to start doing again soon. This shit makes me seriously wonder how people manage to work at places for 20 or 30 years straight
Or for the political bent, we need to make layoffs more expensive and tip the balances on mergers and acquisitions to make those far harder. Force companies to pivot to meet a competitor or die
This is way too real. Company I work for has 100% layed people off, pulled access, and until they call in saying ‘something’s wrong’ there’s no warning. I’ve seen entire departments get gutted, only to see all of those jobs outsourced to WiPro.
Wait, the Indian “Wipro”?!
That’s the one.
I thought I was the only one who lived this experience. It’s fucking suffering constantly wondering if I’m next because my team is in a downturn.
Cool.
Post it across as many parallel subs on the fediverse as possible. Nobody will notice. It’s not like they’re connected or will stack them together based on when you post them or anything.
- Upvote one
- Downvote the repeats
- Block the user
- Move on with my life.
- Smile
Except it’s cross posts, which isn’t even a repeat, it’s just the same content. They just got their panties in a twist because the world didn’t work the way they wanted it to for 3 whole minutes.
Oh no you noticed. Maybe I shouldn’t make this post a crosspost that literally links to original /s
It’s for people that don’t subscribe to both subs. You can always ignore the second one and scroll away.
Most don’t subscribe to either. It’s the fediverse.
Don’t get attached to a company unless it’s your own gig.
If you get fired and you’re good, you’ll get hired again within weeks.
Stop watching Fox news and you’ll feel better. 😁
