Moving deck chairs on the titanic

Heard they were busy moving the deck chairs around on the ship just as it sank into the ocean, does this sound familiar?

@es Never claimed to be speaking for anyone else.

If it’s taking you 50-60 hours to complete white-collar busy work then you’re doing something wrong.

The ship is going into waters that well change it forever. When we look back at history, this was the inflection point from which EM began its downward shrink. The entire MC knows this, they’re hoping the common folks just keep working to churn the profits and squeeze the pennies out. Take care for yourself because they don’t care for you!

@e0 I’m glad you can speak for all 60k employees when you say they have boring AF office jobs that pay well. Or maybe some people are in roles that have high visibility and higher pressure and a workload that requires 50-60 hours to complete everything required.

@e4 So TF what? If it happens, it happens. It’s a job, not a spouse.

You people are f’n ridiculous.

Seriously.

This is a boring AF office job that pays well and doesn’t require much effort. Yes, the people who run the place are dou--e bags. So are most of the people running and working at most other companies.

Show up, do your job, collect your check, go home. Simple.

@ad I was referring to @a5’s comment, not OPs. I truly didn’t understand what they were saying.

@a4 fyi no one listened to your response, they read it. Assume you can read? Or did someone have to read if you?

@OP "What you've just said is one of the most insanely id--tic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now d-mber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."
