Just had to do one of those personality quizzes for a KFC near my house and it feels SO fucking strange

    The only purpose it serves is to remind you of your place.

      Nah. I worked in a company that implemented this once. The HR rep literally believed that shit and would try to route people to jobs she thought were appropriate to their personalities. All the existing employees took the stupid thing, and I actually got called in to ask if I was happy as a programmer because my Emotional Score didn't fit the expected characteristics. I'd been doing the job for four years already and was their best developer, but she was convinced I'd be better in sales because of the exam.

      It's literally a horoscope for Woke Liberals. And while there's definitely an element of managerial flexing in making anyone waste their time on this shit, people do take it seriously.
