Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

If the quick draft doesn't justify the time and energy, the keynote certainly doesn't. If the keynote is a waste of time, then the meeting is pointless. The best place for the LLM is to replace the jackass who called the pointless meeting in the first place.

This thread of comments reads like you just now discovered bullshit corporate jobs exists. Welcome to 1985. Some books to help you navigate are: Dealing with people you can not stand, bullshit jobs, almost any work stress self help book, and arguably American Psycho - specifically the movie version but the book is fine. Embrace the 80/20 rule, don't let perfect be the enemy of good, show solidarity with your fellow workers, and just play the game until you can reach a point to enact change.

I agree with you. Yet those jackasses will not be replaced any faster by us agreeing here.
