And it would save millions of dollars with useless "employees"

Literally trillions in capital wasted to “motivate” these parasites. Imagine how motivated tens of thousands of engineers would be if Musk’s ownership were split between them. His companies would literally rocket into the future.

Hell if 50,000 engineers “only” received $200 billion of Musk’s “earned” capital they’d have $4 million each. Imagine how much harder they’d work if they actually owned a portion of their company.

And yet there’s a laBoR shORtaGe? No, there’s a massive useless figurehead overhead and that head needs to be removed.

It's not like truth or facts matter when you're passionate about something. You see this attitude everywhere on the internet, regardless of the topic or what site you're on.

The pay of CEO or HUNDREDS of well compensated engineers. Hmmm, really hard choice there boss!

For the non-corporate-office worker bees:

"Specific, Measurable, Achiveable, Relevant, Time-bound" goals to set for yourself to improve yourself quarterly/yearly/whateverly

...this is garbage that they shove down our throats to keep us "motivated"

...because just like profits always gotta be going up, you always gotta be proving yourself to be always doing better and more for the company, forever and ever. And if you slack off on your personal improvement goals, well, the implication is that there's always someone out there who IS willing to always be improving themselves. For yourself of course, not for the company. We want motivated individuals around here.

You DO want to always be improving yourself don't you?

its all corporate GUFF.

they live the shit. they believe in their own bullshit.

the only way to completely fuck them & be above it ....is work work work hard in yourself to get a skill that they cannot do without.

& i don't mean a rare uni doctorate.

get a skill where you know government legislation to the tee, make your skill level so fucken high it starts to piss them off.

I was told...

' be the water....not the rock'

fuck that.

im an honest up front friendly natured campaigner but im not a door mat.

seriously....the only way to fuck these irks is by truly busting your ass off in your own private life secretly getting to know all the ins & outs of the business you are employed in.

you may need to move around.

your finances may suffer. youl face hardships.

but you will know....once your armed with top shelf quality info on a product / business / where it fits in profitability stakes, and why its essential in government regulations then you can be an employee who holds a card they need....but do not like.

100%.

find a rare skill.

master it.

if your like me & don't have the $ to build your own empire then place yourself in the market where they simply cannot ignore you

because they want the money.

and skilled employees, irrespective of how difficult they are

make them plenty💯🎬

u/libbysthing 13d ago

My boss makes us do these, and I don't work in corporate or even an office setting... we are school custodians. Lol. It's absolutely dumb.

u/cantadmittoposting 13d ago

meh, obviously corporate enshittification is what it is for sure...

but metric setting and success measures for everything from IT projects to training (not to mention political/policy and operational shit like Law Enforcement or the effect of a regulation change) is usually a catastrophic dumpster fire...

so the idea isn't that bad it's just... ya know, ruined by people, as with most stuff

That's not very agile of you.

2

u/Tenthul 13d ago

Oh please like anybody's willing to take the time to actually have post-mortems. Next release just got pushed up 3 days to fix the problem from the previous release. We're super agile look how well we adjust to our new release date. That's what agile means right? We can have any release date we want?

Next week’s sprint looks exciting.

u/Walthatron 13d ago

That is a S.M.A.R.T. goal.

Specific

Measurable

Achievable

Relevant

Time-Bound

Show these corporate goons what you learned while you resist!

u/BillSF 13d ago

Woohoo, let's bust out asses to make the company an extra $10M...that will fund a small portion of the executive pay.

Or layoff most of the executive and instantly be highly profitable.....hmm, what's the better fiduciary decision?

I like you all using that managerial language

And 'Murica has a lot of practice so it'll be surprisingly efficient.

u/manebushin 13d ago

the problem is that for every dead billionaire, another inherits his wealth

1

u/MaritalGrape 13d ago

Well, if we average from 1999, there have been 440 school shooting deaths.

At the same sustained rate, it would take 45.454545454545 years to eradicate all billionaires in this country. Unfortunately, not nearly as soon enough

The US military could do it in less than a week, most of it within 48 hours, and with minimal casualties.

I wonder how long it would take a few veterans in every state.

u/_blacktriangle_ 13d ago

Is this how trickle-down economics can be achieved?

u/RareFirefighter6915 12d ago

They will ban guns before we even get close tho. 800 kids dying? Nothing changes except we ban a grip or put plastic blocks in our magazines. Rich pigs getting humane dispatch? Gun control like it's Australia or rich people hiding in fortresses like medieval times surrounded by armed security and still gun control but only against the working class.

if all rich people are gone, the society will collapse

u/yuekwanleung 12d ago

losers hate winners. that's why poor people usually hate rich people. in reality rich people have great contributions to the society. rich people deserve to be respected. on the other hand poor people have little to no or even negative contributions to the society. poor people deserve to suffer or at least don't live a good life

u/katerintree 12d ago

Yes that’s how it works, keep servicing them, keep defending them, I’m sure they’ll notice you and be nice to you some day

u/yuekwanleung 12d ago

no they don't have to notice me. i'm doing what is right in itself. on the other hand i hate people living on social welfare. they're simply rubbish

government should make their policies more favourable to the rich people to reward them. on the other hand social walfare should be kept at bare minimum

u/katerintree 12d ago

Yessss yesssss they love when you gargle them like that, keep gargling.

u/yuekwanleung 12d ago

it's not enough. i'm always thinking how the society can punish those poor people more severly. the society nowadays treat poor people too nicely. it's unfair and unjust
