my idea is more that they printed out timetables, set up clocks etc to claim that they are punctual.

Ironically, trains don't run on time, despite their fame.

except the london underground, that shit comes once ever 3 mins bang on time, I miss it so bad.

except the times I had to use the overground like a fucking chump, that shit's just national rail with a brand makeover. I had to wait like 20 mins to get on the train to go get laid after work.

worth it though

if it didn't make us angry, and INFLUENCE OTHER BUSINESSES TO DO THE SAME REPUGNANT SHIT, we'd be buying it.

It's basically to replace their shitty chat bots. It's ok, I'm doing the course for it now. You guys hiring?

fuck him not just for making those people's lives miserable, but for stamping down the fucking wages of everyone else in tech by flooding the fucking market

Modify this to be less funny but relevant:

Ludwig Boltzmann, who spent much of his life studying statistical mechanics, died in 1906, by his own hand. Paul Ehrenfest, carrying on the work, died similarly in 1933. Now it is our turn to study statistical mechanics.

various obscure Indian Engineers have spent their lives learning shitty Business Software, just to make ends meet have created works to share that information and to line their own pockets. Now it's your turn to learn shitty business software so that you can make ends meet.

I am desperately trying to get a new fucking client and fighting the urge to drink myself to death

I recall using MSN as far as in to 2009, but the friends I was connected with migrated to Facebook when their chat feature rolled out.

another reason to hate facebook

not really.

One guarantees you X, and you can earn +y, scaleable to (not really) infinity

the other starts you at x and you lose -y until you reach zero (not really, minimum wage)

Your paycheck will reflect the same amount of money regardless — and if it doesn’t, you may want to find a better employer. 😅

bruh, the scenario you're describing is meant to be "code shipped = bonus pay" not "code not shipped = less pay"

Stuff like memes from people you think are wrong politically, cartoons you don't find funny, etc etc. Why help the things you hate spread?
