minor things that make you fume


Choosing a ‘message for the month’ now
We have a new CEO. I mean, the company absolutely needs it, but I’ve never heard one person use so much management speak - it’s relentless. He’s also ‘made’ us use LinkedIn - I’m reasonably active on there anyway, but I’m now swamped with alerts all day, every day, by bullshine that would be better suited to Facebook. ?

This manager doesn’t know what she’s talking about a lot so just keeps talking in the hope no one will notice.
We have all been asked to provide her with our birthday dates so a monthly birthday call out can be done via video chat for everyone’s birthday that month. Everyone attending then presses these reaction emojis of hands clapping and love hearts.
Is totally insane.

“Not a fan of forced fun of any kind - leave me alone!!!” I got in trouble last time I made this not unreasonable request. ?

Our founder/CEO is turning 60 on monday and we've all been asked to do "Dear Leader" videos and "celebration" photos.

Normally I'd swerve that crap hard. However, as there's only 45 of us I would be rather conspicuous.
