W-what? Why? Seriously, what sort of message is this supposed to impart? The 'Seriously, we missed you' sign makes it seem like a corps genuinely trying to welcome everyone back in and rebuild an 'office culture'
But the other two are genuinely mean spirited? 'hey are you glad we get to tell you how to dress again?' and 'you enjoyed working with your pets i bet, fucking loser'
I would actually be boiling with rage. I'm never going back to the fuckin office, especially not now that it seems it's a possibility they're going to demean me lol
This is what I told myself. Either that or someone in the graphics department is (rightfully) pissed off.
They live entirely in their own world where all of this is completely naturalized and there's nothing but irony in the "lol fuck mondays" type of sterilized complaining about the world you can do while maintaining social niceties at work.
Remember Cato the Elder treatise about agriculture especially the part about slaves? Those are those type of people, they just cannot literally whip you anymore so they pass the time inventing new ways of psychical abuse.
Maybe they want to fire people, but don't want to pay severance?
If you put real valid complaints into sleek advertising and posters, it normalizes them. It says, "You being forced to wear uncomfortable clothes, and spend most of your one precious life around people you do not love, is a normal human experience. Just as normal and inoffensive as all the other advertising and relatable memes you see every day." In the same way you ignore the ads, and make mundane and ordinary the things you hear over and over again, they say: Ignore your discomfort. Do not let it sit unintegrated in your mind for so long that it drives you to reflection, or god forbid, to action. This is how you should react to these feelings. This is how every one of your coworkers, putting up these signs without protest, placidly walking through these doors after you, has reacted.
Those were approved by a group of people. Multiple people looked at them and said they were a good idea
"i keep trying to commit suicide-by-proletarian-uprising but they never rise up!"
I can hear their smug laughter right now. Unironically cartoon villain shit.
it's a shame the people responsible for those weren't thrown out of a window
i don't believe in borders, but the hogs guarding them do.
”I will raise my children as Maoists."
- Every single employee in that company.
Hustle (to Shaanxi to avoid encirclement by Nationalists) and Grind (the Nationalists down via protracted people's war).
This was back when work from home first started coming to an end in like mid-late 2022, bleak as fuck
We should make them all wear sweatpants when they swing from the gallows.
Yes, if office workers don't hate their work with passion, something in the stars is aligning wrong and make their bosses very uncomfortable.
: "QUIET QUITTING!? MUH COMPANY LOYALTY! DEAD!"Smugly taunts his employees first chance he gets
This isn't a communism thing, it should be a criminal offense to be this spoiled rotten as a person.
The only option would do be take your sweatpants and your dog (emotional support animal for workplace ptsd) to the office, except your dog isn’t a real ESA it’s one of Biden’s rapid German shepards and he loves the taste of Armani suits
i would start building communism in the lobby out of sheer spite
