@mia@snacks some of the fintech places strategically amputate their employee count for the express purpose of getting to avoid filing the DEI paperwork and other forms of count-thresholded government doxxings
@mia@snacks its annoying to learn how much the government and others have really made those job slots precious.
you'll wonder why they can't just hire a secretary for the high performing yet rude wrench turner and nobody will really answer the question but you do run in to shit like having to buy stacks of licenses per-person and then the state drops by with random limits
"oh you have more than 30 people? EEOC reporting!" "oh its more than 200? obamacare!" and the general maze of how hiring a single person actually causes cascades of paperwork that helps no-one
@adiz@mia the honor economy is kind of a brutal one where there is a lot of hard filtering everyone you meet. but its hard to screen all the time, and sometimes you have to hire assets (intentionally dehumanizing sociopaths, as is the way of quinn), which leads to some silly shit like one business book where somebody basically did a handshake deal on real estate and then went on a trip for six months.
when he came back the sociopaths were like
:neofox: but bossman we could make the line go up harder if we sold to this other new client we picked up and he's just like :blobcatmoustache: my blob i already sold it :neofox_bottom: but that was just like a handshake we can get out of :blobcatmoustache: my blob in crepes, i have willed it so and it is already so. cease this silliness.
@mia i still eat shit from family "you aren't *really* looking for jobs that hard" and its like motherfucker i'm on social media every day posting about shit :blobcatgooglynotlikethis: that's literally how i got the only high paying job i ever had, that's how EVERYONE GETS JOBS these days.
she forgot how long she spent doing nothing on covidbux et all its uh
cautionary tale about why you should remember how bad the world is sometimes :neocat_magnify:
