      No thanks.

      I’ve been a member of 3. They made for adversarial relationships between management and employees, with union leadership banking our fees. They cause other problems, like you can’t fire the slacker, so people abuse it, pushing the load onto us conscientious workers.

      There are places for them, they aren’t good for tech.

        Your relationship with management is always adversarial. They might put sugar and spice on it so you don’t see it, but they are not your friend.

        You sound like you’ve never been laid off.

    As if Sundar gives a fuck.

    Also I don’t know if this counts as internalized racism but I think Indian CEOs are mostly yes men trying to implement as much rent seeking as possible. Adobe, Microsoft, Google. 3 major tech companies which have been heavily pushing subscriptions but haven’t released any innovative product.

        In general, no, it isn’t. It’s for comments that aren’t worthy of a response. In your case, it’s because of the racism.

            If you’re judging comments based mainly on how long they are, you should be grading high school essays about Jane Eyre, not trying to participate in an adult conversation.

              You missed the point. I’m saying that some comment is better than none to explain your position or rationality
