Comment on WebMD forcing employees back to office. "We aren’t asking or negotiating at this point. We’re informing"

  Honestly, if they said only that part in a memo, it would still obviously be very bad but it would be so much better than embedding it within this video. If I were an employee watching this, when they reached the part where they play Iko Iko while people dance after the CEO delivered the ultimatum, I’d want to shoot myself in the fucking head.

    Of course, you have freedom of choice. You can choose between eating a shit sandwich or a tube of tile grout compound.

      They won’t admit it of course, but to save on raw material costs, since 2011 the tile grout has been actually harvested from truck stop restrooms.

    Plenty of slaves received wages throughout plenty of historical periods. Read a book.
