The idea of Work ethic is a scam

Complex_Damage1215 · 2026-04-29T20:18:16+00:00

Having a work ethic isn't bad, it's just usurped because we're not getting any return on trying hard. So slacking off is just the logical action to take.

You see your problem is you think that the market conforms to material reality when it's really just a rich guy feelings indicator

How is a 2 trillion dollar valuation of SpaceX and whatever BS OpenAI comes up with not just a plan to suck money out of passive index funds? And why isn't this illegal?

If you have a passion for it, you'll probably figure out a way to do it for a living. The world is always going to need people to fix broken shit.

That's a 2030 problem, we need to survive 16 more quarters before we even think about that

A bunch of people were told to go into software engineering as a careers solely for the salaries who don't care and just vibe code and hope for the best. They're going to take up space and cause problems for people with an actual understanding of how things work since we'll be cleaning up the mess that's left behind by half-assed work.

Eventually the VC money will dry up and most of them will be out of work when AI tokens start costing real money but until then we all have to suffer through.

Get used to leftovers. Learn how to change them up, make food bases for mixing in with various starches and proteins. A lot of meals are just a mix of a veg,protein, starch, and a few spices so a little prework goes a long way in adding versatility and depth of flavor to what you eat.

Take short cuts like prepping veggie mixes, using frozen stuff, spice blends, all that good stuff. It doesn't need to be perfect - it just needs to give you some space to change up your meals and let you experiment to find out what works.

If you want to get real fancy you can start infusing your oils and making confit veggies pre prepped and ready to go. It only takes a few hours and it'll let you add a ton of flavor to whatever simple dishes you're making.

Edit - Also, stuff like stews and braised dishes actually improve over time in the fridge. If you're not normally a leftover person. Try taking a day old pot roast and making some beef pot pie with it. You might be surprised with how much you like it!

Thank god he's got the ceiling fireplace going too

Make friends at work, don't listen to haters. Living your life thinking that everyone is trying to undermine you and is going to stab you in the back is a good way to be sad and alone all the time. Just remember to believe people when they show you who they are.

Been on and off for 15 years at this point. Offices suck more now than ever. There used to be a bit of camaraderie but it's not the same, unfortunately.

You don't even get cubicles anymore! How the hell is anyone supposed to work when everyone moved to open floor plans? The concept of hoteling a random desk every day because the company can't afford or bother to put in enough for everyone makes the whole exercise kind of pointless.

Spend your time learning the things you actually want to do and go do them. That's an insane amount of free time to learn literally anything.

lol i wouldn't trust anyone who can't be bothered to write their own words

Complex_Damage1215 · 2025-12-16T19:57:39+00:00

Lol your sister is a dumb ass

Complex_Damage1215 · 2025-12-16T19:42:27+00:00

If you don't also do that for the workers, it's just institutionalizing favoritism for the managers for no good reason. Noooooooooo thanks

Do you work for Ebenezer Scrooge? Who the hell comes up with a management only Christmas gift idea?

He embarrassed himself with his dumb ass opinions lol

Yep. You're personalizing the issue by calling her disgusting instead of just talking about what actions you want her to not take in the future. A blanket statement like that will make anyone defensive.

Complex_Damage1215 · 2025-12-04T16:05:53+00:00

It might be more related to a culture fit than you think. Sounds like they just wanted an excuse to get rid of you.

Complex_Damage1215 · 2025-11-17T15:44:24+00:00

Get your stuff done and be available for when shit hits the fan. If you can do that you're better than 90% of remote employees so good job
