again, the names are funny. No one is disputing that. But keeping a list is haraam. If they are funny enough, you will remember them.

my homie dhall posted:publicly posting the "pyramid of hate" in response to a list containing seymour butz is actually dumb as poo poo. and yeah, if the person posting the pyramid ever contributed a name it's doubly stupid maybe, maybe not, but as a manager and a self-professed galaxy brain you should be able to handle something like this without flying off the handle and loving up your company and reputation

our culture is full of people who make it solely because they never had to face an actual challenge in their life, one problem with people like that is they’re super fragile and melt down the instant anything actually goes wrong it’s also why they love inventing hero stories for themselves, like if you asked donald trump, who failsoned his way all the way to the White House, he’d probably talk about having to hustle in the 80s with only the 90 million his dad gave him

i don't discuss politics or religion in polite company. and i don't want to hear poo poo about politics from my coworkers either. because what i've heard so far, i do not like that said, the basecamp execs are idiots and they handled this in exactly the wrong way and it's funny to watch their company implode

i mean the whole idea that racism and white supremacy are even political issues is hosed anyway. isn't that why there is like, protected classes, so that basic principles of equality are beyond question anyway my middle management have handled stuff broadly like this much much better and I would argue that they just did a mature adult thing rather than any miraculous management razzle dazzle reading that latest article by casey newton there's a real sense that a lot of employees were sick of the three senior guys' poo poo anyway so given a) a ridiculous set of reactions from them and b) 6 months salary they very happily jumped ship

yeah, this is definitely continuing the tradition of getting people with bad opinions to broadcast them the pinboard guy is pretty proud of being on team dhh and it's just incredibly disappointing but then again it must gently caress up your perspective to not work for anyone else

I do find it interesting that the republican party has gone so far off the rails, where poo poo like brietbart is something you can read and still be a "mainstream republican" that we're close to if not at the point where being in one of the two major political parties in America basically makes it impossible to lead at any company that actually prioritizes diversity and inclusion. Like imagine it was just a bit worse in America and we had one party that was pro-apartheid or something, how could a member of that party lead a diverse team fairly, by definition. Wouldn't you have to start discriminating based on political affiliation in that case? This guy's up there saying that "whenever I say anything political people call me a Nazi"; why do you think that is my guy?

Jonny 290 posted:I normally grumble about mandatory trainings but the implicit bias training and general DEI work my company's done in the past 18 months have been helpful and have made me a better and more considerate employee I didn't mind MS's DEI trainings, but to me they confirmed that I shouldn't assume good faith in MS actions, which I don't think was their goal  Seriously though, if you have about 3 hours worth of these, and the only motivation you provide is "it makes company more money", never "it is a common decency thing to do, don't be rear end in a top hat", it doesn't build trust towards the company and its culture.

“I strongly disagree we live in a white supremacist culture,” Singer said. “I don't believe in a lot of the framing around implicit bias. I think a lot of this is actually racist.” what’s that supposed to mean? like yeah implicit bias is, at least partly, underlying actual racism of the society you are in. why does he say that and also reject living in a racist culture? or is he saying the concept of implicit bias is “actually racist” against whites?

Eeyo posted:“I strongly disagree we live in a white supremacist culture,” Singer said. “I don't believe in a lot of the framing around implicit bias. I think a lot of this is actually racist.” i'm not sure but he absolutely thinks that it's racist against whites imo based on that read not too surprising given his inability to read the room and make trump supporting comments in the official company discussion areas lol

First I will explain "politics" at my employees. Then when they try to suggest that I am wrong, I will simply tell them "hush, no politics at work." Then I will call them all together for a Zoom meeting that will be headlined by a senior manager/our resident nazi telling all of my other employees that they are the real racists here. I will sleep through this meeting. I have written many renowned books on management and I see no problem with this.

Like at my job they have some thing where they'll reimburse your gym membership, but it's through the health plan and so there are only certain chains that take it. This solution (giving the cash equivalent and go to whatever gym u want) is good.
