Clearly manipulated the serving size to get the “10 calories” number. First, how do you measure 3/4 of a teaspoon? Second, who only puts that amount of fake creamer in their coffee? #coffee #corporateBullshit

WTF is this new trend of hotels that are already charging a lot wanting you to "check in online"??

I choose hotels in order not to stoke the Air BnB pressure on local housing. Part of running a hotel is having check-in staff!

Where the fuck do you get off charging 100 or 200 (or even more) euros a night and then expecting the guest to also become your unpaid employee and check themselves in online, giving their data to YET ANOTHER corporation?? #Travel #CorporateBullshit

Dear My Employer's Personnel Department,

You profess to be concerned about high stress amongst the employees within your demesne. If you are going to book meetings about "Stress Management" one idea to not compound the problem you purport to desire to mitigate is to not book meetings into the calendars of personnel which conflict with already-booked meetings.

XOXO,
Me

Olen viime aikoina joutunut lukemaan useita tekstejä, yt-tiedotteista strategiapapereihin, joita voisi luonnehtia sanoilla "kuollut sisältä". Tämä hevonp*****-vastaanottavaisuuden tutkimus tuntuu siksi piristävältä, ja varoittavalta...
"Results show that corporate bullshit receptivity is distinct from a general affinity for corporate speech, negatively associated with measures of analytic thinking, and positively related with other bullshit-related constructs in theoretically-consistent ways. Importantly, corporate bullshit receptivity is positively associated with several workplace perception variables and is a robust negative predictor of work-related decision-making."

Researching the corporate bullshit generator (it’s a thing).

Findings? People who fall for the corporate bullshit consistently make worse decisions.

Who is surprised? Not me.

For folks who can parse language & think clearly, failure to challenge incoherent pap indicates obedience & a tacit agreement to keep critical & ethical analysis out of the workplace.

For those who don’t see through it (or who doubt their own assessments), compliance gives the comfortable feeling of ‘the smart people know what they’re talking about, if I stay with them I’ll be ok’.

In many workplaces this is a necessary condition for career advancement.

To often it is the case in academia also.

Who benefits perpetuating this crap? Those who wish to manipulate populations via bullshit.

We see you.

Nikki Glaser takes swings at CBS and Leo, goes gentle on Julia in Golden Globes monologue

Nikki Glaser opened Sunday's Golden Globes with a sharp monologue. She joked about stars possibly being in the Epstein Files and took a jab at CBS for editing a critical “60 Minutes” story. Glaser avoided topics like Venezuela, which she considered already too dated. She told the Associated Press she was struggling to find a joke about Julia Roberts but succeeded with a clever line. Glaser, hosting for the second time, balanced kindness with biting humor. She poked fun at Leonardo DiCaprio’s dating habits, then apologized for making such an obvious joke, saying she had no choice because “we don't know anything about you!”
