Yeah if there's a person who knows the biggest secret about you, a secret that would absolutely ruin your life if people found out, maybe don't gently caress them over and tell a bunch of lies leading to intense emotional confrontations when they're at their most vulnerable?

Dazerbeams posted:Loyalty is never rewarded. You want a higher paycheck? Find another job. That's hilarious because my current job explicitly told the entire department that this past March. They said we weren't getting raises until the pay rate for similar jobs in the area goes up, which is corporate speak for "we're not giving raises until we HAVE to lmao". So now a full quarter of the staff have already bounced, and another quarter is actively looking. My last day is in a week and a half lol. It's the best job market for employees in decades, there's no reason to put up with that poo poo. greazeball posted:Yeah if there's a person who knows the biggest secret about you, a secret that would absolutely ruin your life if people found out, maybe don't gently caress them over and tell a bunch of lies leading to intense emotional confrontations when they're at their most vulnerable? Especially if the easiest and most direct way to refute said lies is to share the secret!

I used to work at a small company where the boss had a house in the Hamptons, a house in Boca Raton, and an apartment on the Upper East Side in Manhattan. Twice a year she'd spend thousands of dollars to ship her orchids back and forth by air between New York and Florida. And then she'd tell us that there simply wasn't enough money for raises that year.

Another reason I probably won't get promoted is because I don't take part in any company activities. I don't do happy hours. I don't do trivia night. I will go hang out when they do the puppy adoption stuff every now and then (but not since COVID), and I give blood. But I am antisocial. I don't like bars. So everyone has these relationships at work and it when it comes time to move up, a lot of it is who you know. I'm okay with this arrangement I guess. They pay me well enough for 40 hours that I can save for a house in another part of the country, and they're going to let me work remote.

Mr. Grapes! posted:Oh it is delicious. I got fired from a teaching job because of some complete bullshit, where I refused to use some Brand New Phone App that is gonna REVOLUTIONISE LEARNING (just like the other 9 mandatory apps we hate). It really opened my eyes to how many schools have worthless suits whose entire job is built around justifying their paycheck by forcing the teachers to REVOLUTIONISE their teaching with crappy clunky technology that will inevitably be eclipsed by whatever crap they shill the next time they get bored. Reminds me of this: https://www.wired.com/story/sweden-stockholm-school-app-open-source/ School software sucks.

Governments are the biggest loving suckers when it comes to tech poo poo. I did a masters program while I was in the military that had a bunch of federal mid level managers and intel/cop manager types and while I wasn’t really a “programmer” then I had dabbled and written a few machine learning things and such and despite that they and the business school professor all acted like I was some Luddite when I told them all the FUTURE OF AI PREDICTIVE POLICING was laundered horseshit and worse than worthless. Even though I was the only person in that program that had ever written a line of code. They didn’t even understand the concept of training data and it’s importance to creating a useful algorithm, they really believe “AI” is some magic that turns dogshit into gold and not just laundering a bunch of previously made decisions.

Sucker is the wrong word it’s actually a great scam since you can just say computer said yes if you sentence a black guy to life for shoplifting while letting Kyle off with house arrest for his 4th rape or if you drone strike a wedding.

There's no actual divorce happening here, or even contemplated by op.
