ha ha when I was in SoCal tech bro culture I didn't have a car! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |
Don’t forget they then task some other team with validating that they did their reports correctly. I swear I should just make my next req for an admin assistant instead of a writer because they’ve dumped so much reporting and admin bullshit on my team despite it not being our role. And everytime I see it, I’m just like, couldn’t you fucking automate this? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |
They would probably change to a part-time basis if the jobs can be done in less time, and then just deny benefits for everyone. Capitalism, ho! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |
I agree, BUT i also acknowledge a certain percentage of employees abuse their privileges. I worked for a company during the pandemic that went remote, they caught an employee out at a store when they were showing as online working, the Jerry rigged their computer to keep the noise moving.
They eventually did away with remote and went hybrid instead.
I don’t believe in punishing everyone for one employee, and honestly that employee could have rightfully been fired (I don’t they they were IIRC), but I do get that some people ruin it for the rest of us. I was very thankful for remote work so worked hard to prove I was worthy of it, and when they went hybrid I left for a company that was full remote and try to show how productive I am at home and not abuse what they give me | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |

Reddit take from someone who has never managed a team.
For every one person like you that's responsible 10 others are doing their damnest to fuck the system. This is a rosy view of reality and the truth is somewhere in the middle. Like how are you going to honestly complain about your manager calling you while you're on the clock? The fuck?

my manager has dozens of meetings a week and she can never seem to get teams to work properly. you would think with that many online meetings she would learn how to adjust the settings.
also i hate it when she calls me without asking what i am doing, its always on my lunch break. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |
That's dumb as fuck. If they get their quota done, but still have that much downtime, then maybe one could start introducing the 4 day work week. (Lofty dreams, I know) | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |
Yeah and guess what, you're just getting fired if we're even remotely suspicious. Your labor isn't so specialized that you aren't immediately replaceable. Automation is coming and jobs will be less and less. Lose this one and your next isn't guaranteed.
Glad I could make it clear how your management will think! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |

No it won't. At most you'll be constrained language mode which *probably* prevent any sort of mouse-jiggling, but even the most stringent security standards I've been asked to apply have never required completely blocking Powershell. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |

If you're completing your work by the defined deadlines and available when they ask you to be available (Meaning, you could handle from a phone), what's the problem? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |
But the culture has changed since then. It doesn't cost 25 cents to send a text anymore. So you can just send a heads up "hi, are you available for a quick call?" with no cost. Then, you aren't putting the other person on the spot to drop what they're doing and answer it right away. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |
> I mean… super easy to check against them.
Modern activity checkers also ensure you're typing enough 'normal' keys in a measurable amount, not the same key 100,000 times. They also take random screenshots and those are OCR'd to ensure you're actually doing "real work", however that's measured for your industry. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
No I understand, but what you're saying is insane. Are you mentally disabled? It would be a different story if you've got a mental disability and that's why you need this heads up before you receive a phone call, but otherwise... this is nuts, and really pathetic. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
I can assure you the last thing that upper management wants to do is start identifying and cutting dead weight because they would absolutely fuck themselves. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

Not to mention, workstations are remotely backed up in real-time, and that powershell script is going to be slurped up in a backup and someone is going to find it. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
I mean, all banks did this back then. You need to go to a credit union if you don't want to get ripped off. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
Not insane at all. You're the one who insists that people just switch gears immediately and be ready to answer you when *you* want them to be. That's just not kind or empathetic at all. It's the american "fuck you, got mine" attitude writ large. No accounting for people's humanity. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

I agree with this.
>Ignorance is a choice, and one that I agree should drop someones score as they are showing an unwillingness to learn about credit before wanting to borrow money.
So what if someone with a yearly income of $200,000 for the past 3 years realized they lived in ignorance and has horrible credit by paying $100 bills late. How low will their credit be? Now they want to be better, how long will it take for them to get back up? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

It is actually on my bucket list to see Wells Fargo collapse. My closing attorney refused to sue them (with an ironclad case) because he did so much business with them. Had i been older and wiser then, I would have sued my attorney too.

So they fired 13 people. A quick look on wikipedia says they employ over 238k people as of 2022. Meaning they fired about 0.0054% of their employees. Why are they writing an article about this? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
No severance due if you quit or get fired for not meeting an unrealistic and useless goal I guess. Cheap and shitty way to lay people off to boost shareholder value | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
>There are a lot of companies that don't understand that you get more productivity out of people when you treat them like adults.
Yeah that's the biggest lesson I've learned as a manager. Not everyone works in the same way. You can try to force them to work in the same way, but they won't be nearly as productive as they would be if you can let them do their own thing (maybe with some necessary compromises). | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
Wells Fargo complaining about ethics is absolutely hysterical. The most predatory actually evil bank that ruined peoples credit, structured deposits to steal peoples money with fees, violated veterans laws on deployed personnel, and mistreated employees. They have no basis for using the word ethical. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

> Who gives a shit if people are playing games, or away from their computer if they are supposed to be working, if all the work they are expected to do is getting done?
This isn't how these jobs work. Salaried, particularly high-salary knowledge-based jobs, aren't defined by menial "tasks". The point is that these people are paid typically based on a 40 hour work week. Not to mention different people work differently because they are not task-based. Task based jobs are typically hourly for this reason. Regardless, these people are likely reporting that they are working 40 hour weeks. Tons of financials and other forecasting depends on these facts. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

Yep, I had BoA in like '99'ish. Put a deposit of money in, couple days later, bought a few things but for some reason, those went through immediately. My deposit took 3 days. I bounced about 4 checks. $120 in fees. Then 6 months later, it happened again, waited 3 days and saw the money in there, wrote checks, somehow, that deposit was removed, they processed checks, then the money was magically back, minus all the NSF fees.
I immediately went and closed my account. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

Yeah there’s plenty of people that could have shit work out for them and were able to catch an Uber or a ride to work. I’ve done it myself but shit worked out that day. It’s not so unfathomably hard to understand that some people might actually need a day off because shit didn’t work out for them. Tow company took forever?
