That sounds like something I would do. Unironically, though.

4pm - Home time! Stop along the way to pick up polycarbonate sheets and old PVC pipe from hard rubbish verge collections with which to fashion disposable riot armour and shields

True story.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I work at a rather large financial corporation, I heard about a "town hall" in another state where one of the questions asked of the CEO was "how do you sleep at night"

Legendary.

What I found more interesting was how many of my coworkers condemned them. I was all about it.

If I had this opportunity, I'd just say I wake up every day knowing full well my pay doesn't get kept up with inflation, and that our benefits are the worst I've ever seen.

Meeting invite from HR

This has 'and the whole train clapped' energy.

But, hopefully this legend really did this and has a great new gig lined up.

Idk, I drew the Easter Bunny starting a communist revolution for a weekly social event at work, and others have drawn things that would probably get you banned for inciting violence on Reddit, so I can believe this actually happened.

I know what you mean. I can see some temp or young whippersnapper doing it though. People do tweet total lies though

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

Yeah, it feels like one of those unhinged GenZ email greetings/signatures. Aside from that, it was probably just someone quitting because they got told to compose a company-wide “tell the class a little bit about yourself” email.

Thats what happens when you force employees to do stupid shit like this.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 hours ago

It's what should happen, yes.

I really don't like this kind of stuff.. I became part of a company(through acquisition) that would do the evaluation through a buddy/mentor. So you had to write your 3 goals of the next year, etc.. and your buddy would present them in an open meeting (all mentors were there). The first 'evaluation' i only wrote as my goal, to look for another job. My poor buddy didn't enjoy that, neither did my boss apparently. Yet still to this day i never spoke with that supposed to be boss...

How they would ever think evaluations hold any value when they are disconnected and open to everyone that's invited to the meeting is beyond me. I guess it was just basically so your buddy had to tell you you didn't get a raise and you couldn't even ask why not, because he wouldn't know.

this is what happens when chain letter messages evolve to become linkedin messages

[–] [email protected] 82 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Hahhah, last week a co-worker quit. Since it's a big company usually only their department gets a good bye e-mail and a small "aperitif party." But the dude wrote to the whole compay: a very passive aggressive but professional e-mail about how the company sucks.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Had a colleague send an email a bit like that where he also said "I'll miss most of you" hehehe

We need the beans sauce on this please!

He basically said the company is very old fashioned, conservative and does not offer any benefits you'd expect for a company of its size as well as the coworkers should be more friendly to each other. He did it in a very indirect way always contrasting something possitive with something very negative that would tilt the scale to the negative.

“Needless to say, Nigel, the entire club was in an uproar!”

“Good heavens, Charles, you have such riveting experiences.”
