- Comment on Why do people from Western societies always seem to complain? 1 day ago:
It is my experience that people who have little tend to appreciate what they do have while those who have more complain about not having even more. It doesn’t matter what “IT” is, the monkey part of our brain always wants even more of it. When that doesn’t happen, the tendency is to focus on others as being the cause of not getting what they perceive to be deserved, hence complaining.
- Comment on Has America Reached Its Tipping Point with Ignorance? 1 day ago:
The internet has been around, as you understand it now, since the late 1990s. 1995 - 1996 is earliest analog to what we have now.

They may not be for everyone but they help many.
- Comment on Jamie Dimon popped off at the 1,200+ JPMorgan employees fighting against full-time RTO: 'I don’t care how many people sign that petition' 6 days ago:
This sort of backlash won’t happen, though. There is a conservative culture war underway and it’s win at all costs, damn the consequences. These are people who will continue to act against their own self interest.

Shareholder revolt, honestly. The rich shareholders benefit from these sorts of idiots, at least in the short term.

This is one case where I feel no sorrow. People who pursue their BBA/MBA are the worst and try to network themselves up to heaven. They chose this path knowing just how fickle it could be.
Other RTO, yeah, screw the person at top.

You are showing empathy and that is a good thing. Not wrong.
- Comment on if you've had or have anger issues, how did you become a better human? 5 weeks ago:
Human behavior is statistical. Everything you can think of there is someone doing it. Accept this fact and stop looking for normal and you’ll feel more peace.

Ffs there’s no need for a car in NYC. Go live in the suburb if you want to drive.

YAY!
- Comment on There is a fee to close my HSA account 1 month ago:
I’m not saying that I accept their word, which I am apparently failing at conveying. I am a technology director myself and agree that it’s not any effort. I’m just saying that they will lie and charge you money.
- Comment on There is a fee to close my HSA account 1 month ago:
What I mean is that if a human has to interact with you, you have to pay for that time. That, at least, would be the justification.
- Comment on There is a fee to close my HSA account 1 month ago:
It’s that someone has to do work and they want things to be automated. Everything with a fee is to cover salaries.
- Comment on Maybe, just maybe, a company that refuses to give you time off if you have a bullet inside of you is a really really shitty company 1 month ago:

Tech is far too libertarian to take action. Nothing will change.
- Comment on I always read on reddit suicide watch people asking for a hit person to kill them. My question is it that easy to just post and get a PM? Or do they have to go to a bar looking? 1 month ago:

There are but it’s going to be a government or mafia thing, not for regular people.

That’s pretty much how I operate. I don’t sweat the high performers but I will hold it against those who don’t perform.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I manage Gen Z, Millenials, Gen X, and Boomers. Yes, all of the above. My experience is that the Gen Z types strive for quality of work and will give you their best once they understand the mission and accept it. The Gen X and Boomers very often get stuck int he performative parts of work: dress, dates and times, etc, and focus less on the quality of work. Millenials are a bit of a mix.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Gen X exists in name only. It went from boomers to millenials and nobody blinked.

AND if someone is late because of traffic, etc, you shouldn’t sweat it.

What a backwards and projecting take. Keep your pessimistic views to yourself.

Oh this is me. Their house is packed and they keep buying more shit and going on international cruises. We’ll get nothing.
