This is dumb... oh shit I just got fired from Amazon. I guess now I can use the restroom to take a piss. And eventually throw my lunch in the trash.

Seriously messed up stuff here.
Also messed up …

Sorry you had to lose your job there, assuming of course that's a bad thing?

That list is absolutely diabolical. Seeing that it's coming from the mind of a trillionaire, it shows a little bit of insight into where his head is really at. I mean seriously, the idea that a trillionaire is worried about unionizing and thus making 111 billion dollars in a year instead of 111.85 billion dollars in a year should almost be unfathomable for a multitude of reasons, just off the top of my head. In hockey terms -- it's like being up 3 games to none in the Stanley Cup finals, with an 11 goal lead in the last 10 seconds of the game and then losing your shit about an icing call.

At any rate, whenever I see this kind of thing, it just reaffirms my personal belief that I'd never want to have a lot of money.
The gazillionaires all are a bit diabolical no? The Tesla dipshit bought 10% of twitter probably just so he could ban the kid that is tracking all the flights Musk takes :noidea:

Oh for sure. Then again, I'm coming from a position of "middle class privilege" and can't understand the struggles of the filthy rich.

Oh no that was a joke for saying words not allowed at Amazon. I never worked for them and never will. :suds:

Wife's friends daughter has worked for Microsoft for a number of years; sounds like it's a great place to work. I've also heard Google is a great place work. Other than your anecdote, I've never actually heard anything good about Amazon.

I'm not going to lie, though; I absolutely love shopping on at Amazon. I have vision issues (double vision), so I find it a real chore to go into stores these days. Amazon takes care of that issue for me.

The bulk of amazons employees are the low paid workers in the fulfillment centre meat grinders. The tech workers at amazon have it just as good if not better than those at the ibms,googles,apples

All the folks I know that work at AWS, Microsoft or Google all love it and yeah Amazon treats the cloud folks a lot better since that is a competitive market.

I do know a few folks that worked for all three. One guy was at Microsoft, then AWS and is at GCP now. The other lady she was at AWS, GCP and now at Microsoft. There are others that interchanged between just two of the big three but honestly none of them say anything bad about working at any three.

As for folks at AWS they really don't like being associated with Amazon because their work environment tends to be different. And if I remember correctly there was talk at one time of AWS becoming its own entity but the larger Amazon didn't want that since AWS had huge margins/money maker for the company as a whole.

When my company rolled out a similar monitoring system my team was tasked with building the list. This young woman we had hired agreed to curate the list (even though we warned her) so for the next two weeks me and the guys I worked with would walk past her desk and say the nastiest, foulest things to add to the list. Like we'd walk by and stop and say "Holy fucking shitballs, this cuntnugget is such a fag." and she would just look at us, sigh and write it down.

One day me and another guy were going to a meeting and he stopped and said "Savannah - 'rusty trombone'". She was like "how can that be bad?" and he told her to look it up. When I got back from the meeting I had an alert that she had googled it. We expected her to get upset, but she just went with it. We went to a team happy hour and her husband came along. She stood behind him miming the trombone movement and I thought my buddy was gonna choke on his beer.

She has gone far in the industry, but sadly not for us anymore.

Similar story. Was in a meeting and the one guy called a female employee a Donkey Punch.
I was like oh boy he is getting fired but little did I know, no one else in that meeting knew what that word meant.

They are doing this on purpose right? They can't possibly be that stupid? I mean yeah I guess they can but this is something special stupid
He's not that stupid.

But his supporters are. I guarantee there is a large number of people that will say the Media photoshopped black hands on him.

In a state that produced Jim Jordan, Jim Traficant and Jerry Springer it takes a lot to be the worst politician ever from here. But Josh is trying.

Doesnt that prove he is really really not racist? "I used to have black hands" is a whole 'nother level of not being racist.
Unless of course he claims it was a Jeff Fahey in Body Parts situation where the hands had a mind of their own and were murderous, thieving, and/or lazy. Of course claiming that might get him more votes.
