“HAVE FUN, GODDAMIT! THATS A FUCKING ORDER!”
INITIATE TANGENTIALLY UNPREDICTABLE ACTIONS
“The beatings will continue until morale improves”
THE FUN MAY NOW RESUME
Celebrate your increased workloads peasants.
Many employees at Meta have been working from “hot desks,” a controversial scheme involving multiple workers sharing the same desks.
They were doing this as far back as 2020, as I recall. It was my least favorite part of going into the office because you had to reserve a desk, and you were never guaranteed the same desk on any given day.
They only needed to do it because they made everyone working from home start coming into the office for no reason other than to assert their dominance.
They were doing it before then.
pretty hardcore! desk = money! Got any more stories to tell? Would love to have them at !DeMeta@lemmy.world
I do, but a lot of them are actually pretty fond memories. I hate to say it, but it was a really good job. I was also on the AR/VR team, so my experience was a bit different from that of the rest of the company.
By this point in time, after Alderaan and a couple more planets have been blown up, you should probably have figured out that being an Engineer for the Empire’s Death Star makes you one of the baddies even if you’re not the one pressing the red button.
I’m just here because I needed a job.

Gotta make a livong somehow. Where else can I get a job with a PhD in Weapons of Mass Destruction Engineering?
“You better have fun and love your work so much that you do unpaid overtime, or else!”
No better fun than fascist mandated fun!
Now, fun faster pleebs!
Two minute hate would be pretty fun and relaxing group excercise!
“The floggings will continue until morale improves.”
“ARE WE HAVING FUN YET? ARE WE?”
"Yessir, so much fun [whimpers].
Completely nickelbacked
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
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.
“Descent into” the main thing it’s been for 20 years.
Yea you all don’t really hate on these people enough. Il never understand that
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
I knew what I signed up for
Rare nazi self snitch?
.ml user, so probably proud of it.
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.
I mean I think comparing Zuck to Hitler is a stretch, but also consider that Hitler would be a lot more limited if his soldiers knew what was going on and were morally concious
But yea I do it for the money. I make over 5x the salary compared to my previous job
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.
ICE is also offering a $50k sign-on bonus, fyi.
$50k, and be the inside snitch. Too bad my knees are shit
That’s peanuts though?
The beatings will continue until morale improves.
You know what the chain of command is? It’s the chain I beat you with until you follow my ruttin’ commands!
Okay Jayne…
A man walks down the street in that hat, people know he’s not afraid of anything
This was my first thought and I knew if I scrolled I’d find it.
