I don't get it, people who work for megacorp and then object to rules of said megacorp. If you're bright enough to work in big tech, surely in this age of internet opportunity you can do something else that pays. Maybe you won't be rich but you can live the life you want.
- TaylorAlexander 4y agoSome people think labor should have some say over how their work is managed.
- vasco 4y agoSome people should start companies or realize that if they accept to work on someone else's they should see what they are getting into before starting.
- TaylorAlexander 4y agoThe thing is this isn’t true. Workers can just stop working (collectively) and then the boss is screwed. The idea that if they don’t like it they should start their own business is nonsense. If they don’t like it they should discuss this amongst themselves and if something isn’t done about it they have plenty of options that aren’t “take it or leave it”.
- vasco 4y agoWhen I disagree with my boss, I'll stop working and they'll need to get someone else. And since I'm not rich the way to do that is to get another job, not to live in frustration and trying to convince others of what I don't like. If they all are like me they will also all leave and the company will go bankrupt. If on the other hand, other employees are fine with it, no need to change anything, I just left and they can remain happy and now I can be happy. There's no need to push your view on others. I cannot identify with someone who sees themselves in a bad work situation and decides the right solution is to push their views to the people who created the business they want to run, instead of going to work somewhere aligned with their views. Why support someone who different world view from yours and why try to improve them? Just go help someone else who is doing things right.
- TaylorAlexander 4y agoYou’re missing the scenario where the other people already agree. This is not about pushing views. This is about discussing with others and finding common ground. Certainly if only one person feels a certain way then they’re not going to find support.
- thefz 4y agoIt is exactly how it is. If you enjoy being micromanaged and screwed over by anarcho-capitalists who gain 400x your pay over your work, you'll find plenty. Others simply don't.
- refurb 4y agoThat's all well and good, you just need to find an employer that agrees.

- rocketbop 4y agoI don’t understand the anger at this woman. The video she posted just showed what the office is like. She didn’t design it nor did she display any real entitlement. Edit - I refer to the anger in the YouTube comments rather than in parent’s comment.
- recuter 4y agoThe anger at this woman was also rather unjustified if you know your history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Antoinette https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Antoinette Maybe it is a vibes things. Who knows.
