Hmm I wonder why. Could it be because we can't fucking afford anything?! Could it be because wealth inequality has been at a high that we've never seen before? Could it be because our world is slowly dying and nobody seems to care? Could it be because literal Nazis are roaming the streets and nothing is being done about it?
No, it's the infrequency of pizza parties and taco Tuesdays.
Let's see... rent or ping-pong...
3 slices of pizza, or a wage increase which which I can afford many more pizzas?
I'm pretty sure that's a real question
I’m gonna have to say you’re both right.
Y'all are getting pizza? We only get coffee and water in our break room. $1B company mind you.
Well u wouldnt want to cut into your bosses yacht money would you?
For me, in addition to all those other things, it’s that even most “good” companies are abusive, so there’s no escape. It’s just “how much abuse are you willing to put up with to work here?”, rather than “this place isn’t abusive”, and I can’t do that roulette anymore.
I’m taking some time off to reassess everything. Maybe in 6 months of absolutely minimal living (to coast on savings) I’ll feel better about it, but with the way things are racing downhill and picking up speed, I’m not optimistic.
It's assholes companies trying to force people in the office like cattle.
Not sure the feral nazi population has really changed from last year.
