Just a reminder to all the remote workers out there... This is the "winning culture" that your leadership is demanding you return to. Although it beats my old office - it has windows.

Don't be fooled. Leadership isn't a fan of remote work because it makes it very obvious to everyone how un-needed they are.

If I have to read one more entry level position job opening that requires extensive knowledge of X and 5 years experience, I'm probably gonna puke. Eventually, I am going to just bag each event and send it to the company that posted.

14- and 15-year-olds working on kill floors, cleaning sharp implements used to butcher animals, working in freezers and meat coolers, on construction sites: what's not to like? A dystopian nightmare brought to us proudly by white Christian nationalists like Sarah Huckabee Sanders….

(But not HER children. Or the Tysons' children. Or the Waltons' children. Or the Kochs' children.)

The workers smashed machines. But they were not opposed to new technology.

They were skilled workers who knew the machines well.

They were protesting by bosses. The machines they smashed were only those owned by exploiters of labour.

“Getting past the myth and seeing their protest more clearly is a reminder that it’s possible to live well with technology—but only if we continually question the ways it shapes our lives.”

The workers smashed machines. Many of those machines were not new, so it's plainly false to say they were opposed to new technology.

Typical tech fscking around of employees with the usual lame sound bites about why Blizzard thinks it's all okay.
