        lol looking back at that moment in time when all the tech workers were coaxed into full time daycare labor centers.

        Bet they don't even have ball pits and nerf wars anymore.

          Before covid, I worked in a couple offices that had stuff like that (ping pong tables, foosball, gaming consoles, etc) and they were 95% used by the sales and marketing bros.

          Engineers were always so busy we'd get judged and told to go back to work if we used them angery

        I still think we’d be better off if tech bros were locked away as much as possible (preferably without internet access so I guess Google was off to a good start)
