Corporate job, terrible decisions, change of management, extra work for most people for the same money. Everyone is outraged and not happy.
So management organizes a company-wide zoom meeting to introduce new roadmap, changes, new management teams, etc.
HR is running an anonymous question board throughout the meeting, where everyone can send in questions and feedback through a web application link/QR code (Slido) for the Q&A section at the end.
Some questions are still praising management, “looking forward to working with xyz”, “great opportunity”, fucking toxic positivity like what you can see these days on LinkedIn. So of course management only answers/discussing these pretentious shitty questions and not dealing with more serious stuff.
So well done idiots, nobody knows who the ass kissers are, so it was pointless.

It was HR or management. Nobody does a truly anonymous Q&A session like that without having a few safe, canned questions to fall back on.
Yes, this is the first thing everyone thought, but also these questions were ranked by likes through the same system so unless HR hacked the Slido page to put on extra likes might not be the case.
Someone in a school I worked in changed from saying ‘specific’ to ‘pacific’ just because the deputy head said it that way.
Somewhat related: someone at my work started saying the word “metapoint” a while back in some meetings and now a bunch of people are constantly slipping the word into their regular speech. I personally find this particularly confusing considering that metapoint is not a real word and I have no idea how so many people managed to incorporate it into their vocabulary nor what this word means to each of them.
Metapoint: a point that is everywhere all at once.
It’s an antonym of singularity.
And they’re supposed to educate people 🙄
Quite a lot of the UK population during the last coronation. Vomit-inducing stuff.
I got banned from reddit for a year for commenting the word “good” under the announcement that the Queen was dead.
As an American, I’ve never really thought about that before… That’s a different perspective. What was it like?
Every post on linkedin. Bunch of fake ass people kissing corporate asses.
My cat literally licking my boot.
Specifically, Tim Scott telling Trump he loves him was particularly sickening.
Tom Scott said that?!

In the two decades I’ve lived, I can’t begin to tell you how many times I’ve seen people flock to the wrong people, often at the expense of innocent people caught in the crossfire, and then brush off whatever looks like it could challenge their familial/platonic/etc. standing. It played into one past question of mine that ultimately got misunderstood in some ways. I see it in the bureaucratic world, I see it in the personal world, everyone just thinks strangers must suffer the one third of a two thirds compromise. It’s all formulaic (well, except for the time a CPS leader my old community says they hate ended up running for mayor and winning).
That reply was right. Very wordy post.
In school/college you’re trained to hit a certain word count. So you get into the habit of using long-winded language.
Try to break this habit as soon as you leave education.
Not to be a cunt btw! I left uni 20yrs ago and still have to fight the habit.
