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, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

The people buying these aren't the workers being forced into meetings. They're the idiots who think meetings are the real work. So they can be in a meeting wherever they are without dragging out the laptop and pretend they're the ones making money before they have an expensive dinner while they're making the people who hate meetings work late.
