It can’t be that employee wages haven’t kept pace, that more Americans feel financially unstable than ever, all of this while companies across every vertical have posted record breaking profits and their c-suite bringing home eye watering multi million dollar compensation packages. It must be the line managers do not understand how to manage and keep our serfs engaged!
I doubt that would be even close to his response right now. He tried to do some level of that with Apple’s upgrades to privacy that allowed you to neuter apps basically. He thought he would get an exception because we are Facebook we will just pull out!
What he got instead was a line in a investor call talking about how the changes in apple’s privacy and transparency rules took a bigger bite out of revenue than expected because it turns out when asked if you want to be tracked people almost always said no

They never said what performance they are optimizing, I’m pretty sure it’s profit.
The device looks like it was chewed by a wild animal parts of the board is missing but you may be able to recover some data…
Day 1 mission log: We have arrived at the lab to try and figure out why the scientists have ceased communication. We found the door damaged and pried open. There is a broken loader out in front of the lab. we are setting up a perimeter.
Day 2: We were woken in the very early morning to the sounds of something large in the bush. We heard a scream and upon investigation Johnson was ripped apart and partially eaten. we have implemented a more strict watch schedule.
Day 3: we have finally managed to enter the lab. We lost Johansen and Richardson last night. Hopefully we can figure out what happened and what is out here.
—Data corruption detected—
Day 7: Mother of god there was blood everywhere. doors ripped open, bodies and body parts everywhere. There are runes drawn in blood on the walls. There is some sort of device that is projecting a shimmering portal, I’m going to investigate it more and try to find my missing team members…

honestly it’s really simpler than that, like you pointed out you only need one frame to make the track, the metal you do not need to sharpen if its less than an inch thick, most modern sheet metal, cookie pans etc will do, you just need weight and you cut the blade at an angle, then you use a table and some ratchet straps to hold the subject in place, but have you seen the price of lumber?
Both of us man. And those resilient architectures are not as resilient as some bosses seem to think. Which we saw with twitter will end in hilarity if the people that they need to try and get it running again are as petty as they should be.
well this is appeal 4 I think and its been swinging back and forth between Bayer owes shit and Bayer owes billions. Let’s not count any dollars until this guy starts collecting.
Full transparency, Bayer is my employer, these thoughts and opinions are my own and do not reflect my employer, My bonus would look a lot better without this news, but the dude totally deserves to win because boy did Monsanto fuck him over.
Yeah we will have to start with dull wood axes I suppose, at least till enough rich people have dropped loot so we can buy a few.
For now. We are looking at the short term short sighted part of this right now and they will seem like they are thriving for a bit but, they were massive burnout factories to begin with. But increasing everyone’s workload Im sure will have absolutely no effect on that right…
Is this where we say “takes one to know one?”
Saying we expect our employees to act as slaves, weird flex there Space Karen.
I’ll reply to that the same way the head of the US treasury replied once for US billionaires who were saying they should pay more tax “Don’t wait, we accept gifts, donations, and any money you want to send us, check our site, call us up, whatever, you can do it via cash, wire transfer, credit, or check. We stand by for you to send us that extra money”
you know all of those “illegal” drugs are legal if you have enough money? There isn’t a single “illegal” drug that you cant get as long as someone slaps like a Pfizer, Novo Nordisk, or Bayer label on it and signs their name to say you can have it. Prohibition doesn’t work, we have a lot of history to show that, we also have a lot of history to know that treatment, rehabilitation, and social safety nets go a really long way towards stopping addiction and substance abuse.
Ending it would involve more than lel drugs are legal have fun. It would be a shift to focus on treatment, rehabilitation, and prevention by treating social deficits that tend to breed addiction, those are proven consistently effective treatments. If prohibition ever worked we wouldn’t have weed, alcohol, and coke would sell completely caffeine free beverages.

yeah it could be both but I would counter that without the other things no level of management will increase employee engagement, and manager while part of the engagement formula they are not the largest and can’t be effective in this area until the other layers are met. Call it a corporate Maslow’s hierarchy of needs where managers are near the top with like ping pong and pizza parties at the top.
I sort if see it the same those that complain about how employee loyalty no longer exists but have no problems laying off half their staff before they ask the CEO to take a pay cut, or barely keep pace with inflation for their highest performers.
