like 7 of 9 in voyager, where she alotted 1hr of FUN each day. cyborgs/androids knows best. “Hello Fellow humans, fun will now commence until it reach satisfactory parameters”- zuckerborg.
Feast on their entrails!
Totally thought this was an Onion headline
Yes. It (reality) just isn’t playing fair anymore.
If all the employees got together and picked a special day, perhaps something symbolic like the the 4th of july, and picked their favorite command to run perhaps
rm -rf /. That sort of team building is great for moral and it also benefits society.
Fuck 'em. This far into Meta’s descent into a capitalist surveillance platform, they should know what kind of company they work for. They only find it to be a problem if they aren’t “finding meaning” in the “interesting technical challenges” of turning people into data points.
Yea you all don’t really hate on these people enough. Il never understand that
“Descent into” the main thing it’s been for 20 years.
Meta employee here. People here are so entitled. I knew what I signed up for, but it seems many of my colleagues were/are oblivious
You knew what you signed up for, but still signed up for it?
“Hmmmmm, this Adolph Hitler guy seems antisementic, and wants me to help him build an army. Welp. A job is a job…guess I’m a nazi soldier now…”
Same energy.
Maybe he just didn’t want to work till death. The big tech companies used to pay enough that you could retire early fairly easily. Few other opportunities for that unless you’re born into wealth and connections.
Idk if they still pay the same after all the layoffs, I haven’t kept up because under Trump, the US is no longer an attractive place to work.
Goddamn CEO petty kings and dictators. Everyone is just a production unit to them.
The beatings will continue until moral improves.
Meta employees don’t even have their own desks?? WTF kind of clown company does that?
It’s become pretty commonplace in office environments in the last few years. My company did it, and we develop medical communications literature. They just decided that, as more people were working remotely after the pandemic, it was just more efficient not to renew the lease on most of the office space, and not to bother having assigned desks if people were coming in just a few days a week at most.
Of course, my company never made it mandatory to come into the office (esp. because most people worked all over the country, nowhere near an office); I don’t know Meta’s situation, if they forced people to come into the office but didn’t provide a permanent workspace–which is entirely what I’d expect from them–then they deserve to lose all their employees.
To raise morale they will have a thing in the lobby at Meta HQ where you can pick up a Rohinga or Palestinian child and throw them at a giant velcro target on the wall. If you can stick your child to the right spot on the target, you get removed from the layoff list!
“Zuck” is able to stick those kids on the target every time – even wearing his VR glasses, so anyone else who cant do it too is unworthy to be employed there.
Zuckerberg offered employees access to permanent desks, a symbolic gesture that unintentionally illustrated how expendable many of them had become.
IQ and wealth seem to be inversely proportional to each other.
Jesus, I thought this comment was a joke before reading the article
My company has been reducing force multiple times and did one round in a particularly shitty way. Our bonuses were the lowest ever this round despite us all having had to carry more weight. They wonder why our morale is shit.
RIP Andre
I’ve just started rewatching Brooklyn 99 and this is how I find out he died :(
Dude, yeah, he was so good in that role!! Loved that whole show
Solution is simple, learn to code. (sad trombone)
