Hmm I wonder why. Could it be because we can’t fucking afford anything?! Could it be because wealth inequality has been at a high that we’ve never seen before? Could it be because our world is slowly dying and nobody seems to care? Could it be because literal Nazis are roaming the streets and nothing is being done about it?
No, it’s the infrequency of pizza parties and taco Tuesdays.
Let’s see… rent or ping-pong…
3 slices of pizza, or a wage increase which which I can afford many more pizzas?
I’m pretty sure that’s a real question
Y’all are getting pizza? We only get coffee and water in our break room. $1B company mind you.
It’s assholes companies trying to force people in the office like cattle.
Idk… I mean sure, the price of literally everything is outpacing my stagnant income, and my benefits are increasingly shit… But there’s a banner outside the parking lot I’m not allowed to use (admins only!) that says “Heroes work here!”
Ya hear that?! I’m a fuckin hero, y’all!! I can’t not be motivated now!
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go shed a single tear while eating a meal of white rice. Again. With some soy sauce packets I stole from the cafeteria.
A FUCKING HERO!
Seriously. What is this propagandist bullshit? Fucking sorry excuse for “journalism”, Bloomberg. Blame the prols? Is that it? Push us to judge each other, to shame our fellow replaceables until what? We roll out the guillotine again? I’m here for it.
I’ll even paint mine up so it says “Heroes work here!” right up at the top, so everyone knows who’s pulling the ripcord. How about that?

It’s literally named after a billionaire. What did you expect?
Ach. You’re so right. 😅🤦🏼♂️ How soon we (I) forget.

You mean you are not motivated to make rich people even richer? Shame.
Well it used to be that one person gave them 40 hours of work and they got a home, healthcare, 2 cars, 2.5 kids all costs included through including college, a boat, and maybe even a “family cabin” (regional name). Oh and something called a… “pension”???. Which in the history of deals is not the worst deal ever.
Well colour me shocked. You mean nobody feels particularly motivated on a burning planet where we can’t afford anything? Jeez someone order a pizza.
Hypothetically speaking: if I could afford a pizza what toppings would you want on it?
I’d like vegan cheese, kind of a white mushroom pizza with lots of herbs
That sounds bomb, now I want pizza
I am vegan, we have this AMAZING vegan pizza place in town that does this pizza. Stunning!
Give me some spicy pepperoni, sliced sausage, basil, and maybe some fresh chopped garlic.
Forcing folk back into the office is pretty darn unpopular. If I was part of the group required to return to the office I would also be pretty damn unproductive and pissed as well.
I work a hybrid schedule and am always far less productive at the office than at home. Not even by choice, the environment is just less conducive to my being able to work comfortably.
Motivated employees get taken advantage of with more work with no pay raises. These workers have finally learned and reduced their production to be even with those around them.
P.S. If this is you, like it was me, learn entrepreneurship. The harder you work, the more success you have.
The world needs more than entrepreneurs though and those people deserve a living wage.
I agree with you.
The harder you work, the more success you have.
I mean if your definition of success is being rewarded with more work with no pay raise then sure, but that’s just not true anymore. People used to believe that and they got taken advantage of, and you even addressed this in the first part of your comment. The real lesson needs to come from the top down. If you want your employees to work harder, pay them more.
What’s great about this headline is how timeless it is.
Businesses that are projecting growth, but are in cost saving mode, had layoffs, sub inflation raises, and hiring freezes aren’t exactly doing much to drive morale.
Why aren’t the peasants working themselves to death for scraps anymore!?!?
Executives are constantly sucking up all the profits for themselves and putting more workload on everyone else. Americans are starting to wake up to the fact that corporate executives are robbing them blind.
Exactly this. I’m tired AF.
No fucking shit. Maybe if they were to bring back the lube when they fuck our asses we might be less bitter
The work cultures of yore… christmas bonuses, work functions, retirement plans, affordable housing, and employer loyalty is no more.
And they’re surprised?
Id be more motivated if i could see a doctor.
They pretend to pay me, and I pretend to work.
yeah, because they’re working harder for less… the fuck do you expect…
