Lee DunaIf you work remotely, your bosses are probably using software to track you. Here's how they'll catch you slacking off.
Rikudou_SageWhat dystopia do you guys live in? I’ve worked for some small companies and some corporates and neither did this shit, that really wouldn’t fly here.
ArigionIt’s illegal in the EU, so probably not there.
It’s legal to spy on your employees in USA?
I’m beginning to think all their tinfoil conspiracy theories aren’t completely baseless…
1984Why would it be tinfoil? The us culture is very much about hardcore capitalism. They don’t even have unions or proper vacations.
AngrilyEatingMuffinsWe have unions lmao what?!
kurcatoviumWell, our ~800 people company has unions too. But they don’t do sht for people. And I mean real sht. Except for once a year they have a meeting with free sandwiches they eat and then go home. Another year of unions well done… apparently by them.
But my friends working in big technical/industrial corp say their unions are quite strong and they at least care for employees a bit.
So yeah, there’re unions to this day, but their meaning is not met everywhere.
Dark ArcAre you sure your union isn’t helping? No union is going to be run by miracle workers, but that doesn’t mean they don’t improve conditions. I can’t say for sure, but I suspect this sentiment is part of why union membership fell apart in the 20th century “well my union doesn’t do anything for me anyways.”
Like democracy, unions do require some upkeep via people stepping up. If you don’t like how your union is performing, you could consider becoming a rep (admittedly based on my limited understanding as a non-union employee).
Yes, I am pretty sure. I know most people there personally. It’s kind of sad it even exists, pretty much waste of money in this case.
