Reality becomes illusory and observer-oriented when you study general relativity. Or Buddhism. Or get drafted.

perhaps we should be more concerned with working for such a company, rather than taking a stapler and feeling smug about it

And just let some other endless line of slavering masses take our place? I scoff sir, scoff at the notion.

If you're so worried about it why don't you get all Red Army Faction in silicon valley and start your own social change. PM me if you get cool patches. I won't be down for hostage taking without a cool patch.

Until then stop raining on the rest of us pillaging our lovely apathetic bosses.

if you’ve been marched out of the city at gunpoint to Do Labor at a collective farm for a bowl of rice a day, is it really “stealing” to sneak a couple bits of produce for yourself?

during my first job out of school one of my coworkers was also my roommate and he was an extreme cheapass. one day he took a duffle bag into the office after hours and filled it up with the free soda from the fridge. myself and the other roommate were shocked at how astoundingly stupid and cheap that was

he got fired just after he hit the one year mark but no one knows why

this sort of stuff puts me in a quandary. like there’s a lot of poo poo at various works that would never be missed and it’s a shame not to put it to good use

I have a pretty cushy job these days and while the chance of getting busted or facing consequences for petty theft are remote, I have no desire to take anything. I have too much to lose.

anyway, if there’s one thing I have too much of it’s material bullshit. gently caress the waste in modern capitalism

i’m on disability now and this thread just makes me lament all the missed opportunities i’ve had. especially considering how drat expensive a good office chair really is, which i hadn’t realized in time. i could’ve been ballin’ out on a herman miller instead of this ikea piece of poo poo.

A good office chair is only expensive if you buy it new, fortunately there's lots of incompetent tech companies that go bankrupt so you can buy their chairs dirt cheap at clearance

according to our corporate policy, yes. i think its only there as an excuse to ding bad employees because every person has a charger on their desk

now bringing in additional batteries to charge and use at home, that's going the extra mile

not a whole lot of tech giants here in tampa bay, but your point still stands because it’s not just tech companies that have people sitting on their butts. also the freely available fishscale cocaine probably bumps of the failure rates of small and medium businesses here so it’s probably not hard to find me a deal.

i work for a small company and our first batch of chairs we got were from a company closing down. a bunch of employees were standing around looking very somber while we picked them up and were riding around them in the parking lot.
