Ha. Honestly the one thing that's gonna bite me in the rear end is I put on a show for the higher ups but then real-talk to the people at my level and below (in terms of corporate hierarchy of course, they're not "below" me in any other sense). So if one of them gets promoted above me then the jig is up!

Just sabotage them so that never happens, problem solved!

I've never had a real job so maybe this is a dumb question but is it a normal corporate thing to be really into your companies product in your own personal life?

Like if you work for Pelton you are presumed...to own a Pelton bike?

West coast tech companies have two cultures:

1. Cult. This isn't sustainable once the company gets large enough.
2. A generic corporation, but you're expected to memorize all the inside jokes from back when it was a cult in order to disinterestedly perform cultishness. Nobody expects you to mean it or even look like you mean it, but you WILL call things by the weird names the cultists came up with, and you WILL use the slack emojis that the long-gone PM of a long-dead project really loved back in 2009.

This might give my employer away to a few people, but they have a special name for brainstorming sessions everyone is expected to use because of a thing a drunk guy said to a few of the founding engineers at a restaurant over a decade ago.

back in like 2007 donald trump was speaking at whatever bullshit a "wealth expo" is in toronto and I took note of an ad on the subway for that event with his dumb face on it directly next to a covenant house ad about how they were "unfortunately" celebrating their 35th anniversary - because they wouldn't be necessary if homelessness wasn't rampant

edit: yeah, 2007 https://toronto.citynews.ca/2007/03/25/donald-trump-in-t-o-for-wealth-expo/

the idea of a "wealth expo" is just so gross to me, the only time wealth should be on exposition is when it's being seized and given to people who can't feed or house themselves

Now I'm starting to understand why europeans would be pissed if you tried to tip them at bar or something. I still tip well since it's a worker-to-worker payment, though. Best is when they give you a couple discounts or free stuff cause you tip well. Screws over business, more money for worker, more food or drink for me.

Maybe this guy that flies is just sort of passing through, you know?




The only thing that makes this even remotely close to resembling ok is that's a point of sale system meant for a restaurant or bar repurposed and they simply didn't take the :effort: to change it from the default.

Still, holy poo poo.
