      3 years ago I got ghosted after an interview after being told the typical “we will be contacting you”. After a couple of days with no response I called the company to reiterate my interest on working by the company and they told me they would contact me later. It obviously never happened and got ignored.
      Recently this same company reached me out on LinkedIn telling me they are looking for someone with my profile and want to hire me
      Fuck them I ignored the guy and then a month later he AGAIN sends me a pm telling me they wanna hire me NOW after being ghosted.

I worked on the least liked project with a few others and three of us 5 became good friends, til this day. We decided "this thing is just sitting here collecting dust, let's make use of it" and every break and lunch we played and started getting better(for about 2 weeks) but then... someone complained that during lunchtime we were having "too much fun" and it was distracting... :| so we obviously read the $h!t painted on the walls and never played again.

    I worked at a company where they made you wear a cone of shame for not meeting your sales goals. Those that met their sales goals ate lunch with the department manager in the company cafeteria (at their own expense) and got an arm band that looked like something out of 1930s Germany to wear around the office. Awards were given quarterly to people who went above and beyond and it was always the same people winning them. Those were the people who never left their cubicle, and worked 15 hours of overtime a week. Most of them suffered from high blood pressure and recently one of them died.

I got my realtor license and quickly realized that the only people who are successful in real estate are people who: have wealthy parents, parents with a good network, or one of your parents are already a broker, or you are old and have been doing real estate part time for 20yrs. Don't even get me started on all the upfront costs/gatekeeping that no one tells you about til AFTER you pass the exam. I had to put myself on hold with real estate and now I'm doing insurance and it's great.

    Great video. There is something plain stupid which happened today during a meeting at work. It was an administrative meeting and someone asked if our salaries will be raised. The answer was: "No, because we don't want to be discriminatory towards the people who have smaller salaries". It's like I would see someone without a hand on the street and I would cut your hand off, just so the other person wouldn't feel discriminated.

    You have no idea how toxic the corporate culture in Asia. I'm from India, but across Asia in countries such as India,Japan, China,korea etc, it's considered normal to do overtime with no extra pay, corporate will praise you to not take a holiday even if your sick, if given the license they would even ask us to work 24/7 they wouldn't even care if we died. Honestly it sucks here, we work 8- 12 hours a day, six days a week sometimes 5 depending on the company. Let's also not forget the toxic society we have. If you don't work for a fortune 500 company people will always look down upon you, even if you do something by yourself say a business or something your passionate about, they will call you a failure and an unsuccessful person even though you earn more money than the people who work for corporate. That's why many Indian and Asian students go abroad because they know the labour laws are more better and comfortable there.
    Also they pay us peanuts compared to what other countries give. 😢

    8:15 that hits close home.

Maybe if they actually understood what my work implies and how small changes on design can drag on many more hours of work they wouldn't be promising everything as if it was nothing.

    People and companies have lost their minds. I have found that during the pandemic the company I worked for (I quit) actually raised their expectations of their workers. It was nothing to be given 11+ hrs/work in a day and expect it to get done. Wait, you can’t get it done? Slacker! I was actually told to “Work the hours it takes to get the work done.” That is when I started looking for a new job.
