35 Times This Instagram Account Tastefully Called Out Corporate Greed (New Pics)

I temped at a place where the soda machines were at cost. They wanted us well caffeinated.

"Quiet quitting" is the corporate term. It's "doing what we're paid for".

Not just pee on their floor. Get all your co-workers on board, and you ALL pee on their floor. Then the standard response: "I was denied permission to go, and eventually I couldn't hold it any more." See how fast THAT policy changes.

30 People Share Things In Job Descriptions Or Interviews That Instantly Indicate Red Flags

Well, actually sometimes it can be really satisfying, if for example, you work in a startup that has just received investment round and is searching for someone who understands marketing, knows how to rebuild website and can do graphic design, make pdf books for sales, ad banners etc. Exactly what I have now in my position.

Someone Online Was Curious To Know “What Do You Wish Hollywood Would Stop Doing?” And Here Are 36 Of The Best Answers

They're trying to skip the work of creating depth. Shows like X-Files, Buffy, West Wing, Supernatural, etc. and movies like LotR and Star Wars.... the reason why they're cult classics is because people dug into them on their own and started talking on message boards and having discussions, etc. The worlds were all very rich to begin with and grew over the course of years, in some cases. Movies/tv now are trying to get the same 'feeling' without the time and effort it takes to make it that. They think they're just going to manufacture it by putting a superhero in it and calling it a 'universe' when they haven't even flushed out the original movie yet to give it more depth and weight and character development. If you think about John Wick- there was an example of a movie that gave a lot of weight to the characters and the environment. The hotel, the money system, the women in the phone office... it had these great details that created a universe you wanted to know more about.

As a hiring manager this is not always the case. You may just be applying to a smaller to mid sized company that just isnt large enough to have one specific person in each role. For example, we combined PR, copy writing, and social media management into one role because we're not big enough to afford 3 different people. They're only expected to work 40 hours though.

I actually did a test task that was legit work for a job, but they paid me $65/hour for 25 hours to see my work, for a job that was paying 65K a year. Test tasks are fine, if they pay

35 Times This Instagram Account Tastefully Called Out Corporate Greed (New Pics)

Every time I read those words I remind people this is corporate spin for "we wrote a contract and are mad you are fulfilling it". No other contract results in work beyond the contract being expected. You get what you pay for, stop asking for more. I'm also not adding an extra toilet as a plumber for free, not painting another room, not bringing you 2 pizzas when you ordered 1... because that's how contracts work. Employers are the only ones who always expect different

It's because the have always been 99 cents in the US, that's a firm price the company has famously stood by since the beginning. The price is being jacked and covered up

Putting CGI first rather than the story
