        If we bring them back, we need to add googily eyes to them. I know that’s not the message that people are trying to send, but how can we resist the temptation?

        Someday this will be in a museum of cultural artifacts from this time period. What will the historians say about it?

          shitty AI voice that sounds like David Attenborough

          The foul, uncultured masses had developed a taste for blood. In their ignorance they had mistaken their benevolent, job creating overseers to be the source of their troubles. With violent fervor they created propaganda espousing their murderous intent, as the piece shown here exemplifies. These horrendous works of art were called memes, pronounced “may-mays”, and were spread amongst the mob primarily through mobile communications devices.

              That’s a true statement but it’s also true that in the entirety of human history no society has managed to wrest power away from the rich for more than a few generations. They may lie dormant for a while but they always come back. Self destructive greed is in our nature.

    RTO was always an excuse to fire people. Fuck all the media outlets who pretended otherwise.

      I’ve never understood why it isn’t the other way around.

      All the higher up corpos can be together in the office. After all, they seem to enjoy playing around in suits.

        Honestly, it makes more sense - what am I, a mid-level scientist, going to bring to that corporate atmosphere? You’re going to ask me to brainstorm in a meeting with an Executive VP? Yeah. Fucking. Right.

        You give me work, I do the work. Yes I might need to ask a question, but that’s uncommon and I can just teams for that.

        The seniors execs? That makes sense. They need to all be on the same page, and talking to each other. Collaborating etc.

          100% agree. Leave the people who would work the best at home at home. You want to play the corporate game? Come to the office.

          You will arguably get better results in terms of your product.

        They need to sit around conference room tables all day jerking each other off and then ordering lunch on the company card.

        And by all day I mean until 2pm when they leave early for their tennis match or whatever the fuck they do.

      We had some major construction done at our work recently. Our boss told us that if we wanted to work remote, do so and just keep it quiet; if we wanted to work in-office-they’d find us space. Everyone was expressly welcome to work remote, except “anyone with ‘director’ in their title.” That was kinda cool.
