This dude is a god damn legend.

My previous employer would print out those cringe success and team building story posts from linkedin and hang them around the office because we complained about the working environment, I love that there is good satire of those posts on linkedin now.

The more things change the more they stay the same. Before LinkedIn there were motivational posters that were hung around offices. It didn't take long for the demotivational poster to make its way into the culture just like these posts are now.

Yeah felt like being in a fever dream sometimes honestly

My former employer had a stupid idea that alternating our stats and our company “core values” on tvs throughout the office was a good idea. Yeah, let’s just waste electricity on something no one wants to look at. I would just turn them off and say I valued conservation.

Edit: it helped that I’d long before loudly established that I hated when people left the light on in the server closet. The closet was right across from my desk so I noticed every time.

“Nobody has ever hated their boss.”

Honestly my first tip that this was satire.

Over on Twitter, @kenchengcomedy set out to troll all 195 countries’ flags the world over and it turned into quite a feat of endurance.

Someone’s been trolling the flags of all 195 countries and it’s epic https://www.thepoke.com/2017/09/26/guy-been-trolling-flags-195-countries-epic/ or https://www.inkl.com/news/comedian-mocks-every-flag-in-twitter-thread-this-is-what-he-said-about-india

He definitely is. I've never heard of him before but he fits my definition that's for sure

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 37 points 2 months ago

See, that's good thinking!

Me? I took my step child in, treated them well, taught them self defense and martial arts, then adopted them. HUGE mistake, now they bloody well know that they're gong to inherit the house some day, and are playing the long game, waiting for me to die on my own instead of shivving me in the kidney like a proper stepdad should go down.

Such a rookie error on my part.

Didn't your stepson just fuck off to Bludhaven after a few years?

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago

Lmmfao! Gods, I wish I had thought of that. Wasn't where I was going, but that made me envious of you having caught it.

[-] Akasazh@feddit.nl 26 points 2 months ago

The first two lines, together with your title did lead me to believe this story was going in a very nasty direction.

Shaka, when the walls fell.

[-] AlexisFR@jlai.lu 16 points 2 months ago

Not a lunatic. It's just the Ken M of LinkedIn.

[-] Mammothmothman@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 months ago

Linked in is becoming self aware!

[-] veroxii@aussie.zone 10 points 2 months ago

I heard she's fast tracked for CEO.

[-] mo_lave@reddthat.com 6 points 2 months ago

It's not your stepdaughter, it's Alpharius

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago
