    “No, I’m afraid I have no idea how the fryer caught on fire. Or why HR’s door was blocked by the latest shipment. Or why the truck that delivered that shipment happened to have broken down while barring HR’s window. It’s all very unfortunate.”

      It’s simple really, a universal rule: “You get out of it, what you put in to it”.

      This applies to stuff like LLM’s (shiity prompts give shitty output), but also to relationships and especially company-worker relationships. There’s this time old saying “The boss makes a dollar, I make a dime. That’s why I poop on company time”. So this is not something new.

      What has changed is that companies have calculated the “pooping on campany time” into their calculations now. They expect their workers to deliver the least acceptable amount of effort. It is a calculated risk, a business model. So if you do that, you are just playing by their rules. Fuck their rules! Burn that motherfucker down! Organize! Show them that this is not how you treat people and that employees are people and that there are more employees that boss’s.

        I do agree with the message overall, but the “You get out of it, what you put in to it” part is just another “you are responsible if you don’t get enough tips anyway” situation and is just not true.
