    It’s pretty annoying that I have to go through training every year at work telling me I’m not allowed to bribe politicians considering that

    A. That’s pretty fucking common sense

    B. I have no interest in bribing anyone

    C. I never encounter politicians or anyone at work except for my immediate team

      I get the same training even as a low level grunt.

      I kinda get it though, easier to just say ‘everyone take this’ than try and determine who does and doesn’t work with people outside the company (and in some contacts I’ve had with my same job title, I did send and receive messages to other companies via bug reports)

      When I worked for the federal government, we had to take yearly training on how not to accept bribes/gifts.

      Like…if anyone was serious about bribing my agency to get their way…and they decided that I, of all people, was the one to bribe…well they deserve to lose the value of the bribe just based on utter stupidity alone.

      That kind of thing lets naive people continue with the belief that antisocial behavior comes from a lack of empathy/understanding.
