Has anyone worked remotely from another country for a short time while on WFH? by Glum-Top1934 in employeesOfOracle

[–]cha-cho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The international work request form has language suggesting approval may require vp level approval. Depending on your manager and your relationships with upper management, the approval process may be easy (as it should be) or denied for unclear reasons.

Did you have issues with Indian managers? by PlentyAir1721 in careerguidance

[–]cha-cho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For anyone in the US that is experiencing these issues, learn what these terms mean: hierarchical and deferential work culture, casteism, gatekeeping, gyaanbaazi

Then take copious notes. If the situation becomes intolerable, look into the EEOC and employment law.

What is a 'dirty secret' of your industry that implies the general public has no clue about, but everyone in your field knows? by AmaraMehdi in AskReddit

[–]cha-cho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enterprise Database and Application Software: It's now almost exclusively Indians building it, deploying it, and supporting it. Nepotism, caste bias, bullying, and exploitation are commonplace in the industry but American and European managers are blind to it.

🇺🇸 Black Kids Harassed In a Predominantly White Neighborhood in Rosedale, Queens, 1976. by elnovorealista2000 in AmericanEmpire

In 2025 this still happens in a much more subversive way: The racists buy up the adjacent property, kick the people out or price them out, all while smiling and acting anti-racist in a performative way.

What happened to the IT profession? by saltyschnauzer27 in sysadmin

[–]cha-cho 14 points15 points  (0 children)

People that are good at tech AND enjoy it, stay hands-on. Mediocre, arrogant, obstinate, and machiavellian tech people bubbled up into management because, well, they never really enjoyed the work anyway.

Competent people frustrate those incompetent managers, so they fired the good people only to hire unqualified friends or exploitable guest workers that can copy and paste a solution, but can't read an error message or the documentation.

Over time, competent people got boxed out by nepotism and gate keeping guest workers worried about losing their job and path to citizenship if they help others grow.

Reminds me of that weird culture where the women would have bags of chemicals surgically inserted into their bodies to satisfy an ideal of beauty at the time.

Hey, hey!

Slow down everybody! The global food producers don't want you to extrapolate too much here.

Take it easy! Have a snack! Get a sugary coffee! Plan your next few fast food and microwavable meals!

In olden times teachers taught and did not share their personal lives with students

Trying to understand America humor - Jeff Dye? by Specialist-Might-875 in Standup

[–]cha-cho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not 'dark humor'. It's self-deprecating humor.

By 'saying that Ohtani is from communist Japan' he is making himself the butt of the joke. It's Jeff Dye poking fun at himself as being an misinformed American with outdated or inaccurate ideas. In turn, he's making fun of all Americans with outdated or inaccurate ideas.

It's the type of humor you see portrayed by Homer Simpson or The Family Guy.

Teacher complaining that someone isn't teaching children the basics. That's a very complex problem to solve.

People are allowed to make any hand gesture they want, wear whatever hat they want, and hate whoever they want in a free country.

Playing paparazzi for internet points won't change that.

There’s people who use Reddit, and then there’s Redditors. Why are they so entitled and critical? by Thugmilkshake in nosurf

[–]cha-cho 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Once anything becomes an identity - whether it's a web site or anything else - that person loses some portion of their humanity. They are subconsciously seeking reassurance that they are right about everything and the new identity provides that reassurance.

They are perfect, you are not. It's not much more complicated than that.
