This is satire. Looking at ChrisJBakke's Twitter feed, his posts are jokes. You may not like them. They may not be funny. But they're jokes.

This one echoes a Lemmy post from a few days back:

I think we'd have a much better time on Lemmy if we chilled out. OP posts a lot of decent content, there's no need to shoot the messenger.

Who the fuck listens to blue check marks on X?

Like, OP do you actually believe this shit?

If some 80s gogo Reaganaunt knew "one simple trick" to put profits up 7x he's sure as fuck not telling a single soul.

But this is the stupid shit they'd do if they had a financial incentive to push return to office, like long term investments in corporate real estate...

And then everyone clapped.

There is no way this is true.

The businesses can fail if it means I can lay in the sun on a tuesday afternoon

I wonder about the assertion that these are WFHers and not a bunch of useless middle management and above types with nothing better to be doing.

Plus, BS jobs aren't a new phenomenon. There's no shortage of people whose jobs comprise maybe 2 hours of actual work a day, and the other 30 hours are basically just done for looks/tradition. WFH allows everyone to give the 40 hr desk-sitting tradition a five finger salute and everyone's happy; the work gets done, and the worker doesn't have to spend 3/4 of their time twiddling their thumbs. Plus, the business doesn't need as large of an office.

At my hedge fund I pay my intern to trawl through shitter feeds and track hedge fund managers who post on shitter.

I then short their fund.

I’m up eleventeenthirtytwelve percent this year.

As someone else asked: OP, do you really believe this content?

Aside from how horrible and shortsighted this reasoning is, I also need to ask:

If a stranger asked you who you work for, would you answer?

I often have a lot of time where nothing needs doing and there's no meetings. The idea you always have to be working and creating is dumb as it means you always overwork everyone and miss targets. It's better to have people standing by a % of the time than to be unable to perform when needed. It's the entire concept of IT as well.

Idk much about this field but according to this study HERE there is a positive gain correlation from investing in WFH companies with no inverse effect on non-WFH companies implying that the gains are more than just positive public perception.

I believe other studies show increased productivity as well.

It's laughable that the hedgefund bros actually think they are "working". These people sunbathing, likely commit much more labor than these dick bags ragging on them.

Let's examine the stupidity.

Let's assume that OP's assertion that the time and day of the photos is accurate (and who would be shocked to find out it's bullshit?). Could the people in the photo not be non-remote workers who work evening or night shifts? Restaurant workers for businesses that close between lunch and dinner? People on personal leave or vacation? People who are retired? All of the above? Not every Red-Blooded, Hard-Working American™ has a literal 9-5. Hell they could be stay at home parents taking time for themselves while the kids are in school. Don't you conservatives love families with stay at home parents?

And even if every single one of those people work remote, does that mean they're playing hooky? Could they not be on a scheduled break and using that time to enjoy the park? Could they not have flexible schedules that allow them to break up their day into productive chunks with a midday gap? Maybe they work business with overseas companies, so they live on Japanese time. Could they not also be on leave? Working odd shifts?

The point is you don't know, at all, the situation of any single person in these photographs and you have projected a meaning into it that fits an agenda you are pushing. Your assertion without evidence can be rejected and ignored as easily as it was made. Kindly fuck off back to your hole.

This isn't White People Twitter, it's hedge fund loser tries to connect with humanity but comes off looking like an asshole.

Shorting the shit out of Waffle House and hospitals

I work a minimum of 24h across a typical Saturday and Sunday to get that Tuesday off.
