This hugely reminds me of the person that saved $500k only to get a $30 gift voucher...

It's a wild read, they're gifted with words (and vitriol?) https://ludic.mataroa.blog/blog/i-accidentally-saved-half-a-million-dollars/

A friend works in a supermarket. He responded when told there was a fire in the carpark and led the effort to suppress the fire and protect the cars

He got $200 in store credit for his effort

Definitely not worth inhaling the fumes for

@lucidity@mastodon.sprawl.club care to comment?

(Not sure if they'll see this -- Lemmy/Mastodon integration is spotty but does seem to work)

Also -- is this really the working world I'm about to enter when I finish my computer science degree? Is this what I have to look forward to? Please God say no

Should be @ludicity@mastodon.sprawl.club

Well, there's a lot of organisational stupidity, but usually you can find a good team and/or manager and focus on your sphere of influence

I'm burnt out just by reading this beautifully written pile of garbage. Jesus fuck, what a dumpster fire. Thank you so much.
