Fuck you money is great. I love having it, and I wear it as a badge of honor, like a proud asshole.
What it gives me is leverage. I am your average, software engineering looking dude. I'm not very aggressive or overly eager. But, I'm always a top performer and a good teammate. I'm always thinking of new concepts and better ways, and I'm actually relatively good at executing. Overall, I'm always interested in the successs of the company and the product. Otherwise, I wouldn't be working there.
But, having fuck you money allows me to grab the executives (and even the board) by the balls once in a while simply because I can walk away without a second thought. And, it's only then do they realize that I'm not some low-class blue collar worker. It's very nice.
And, as long as I share the rewards with my teammates, we all work better anyway.
- iced0wn 10y agoBeing proud of boardroom blackmail is about as low on the totem pole as it gets. Those guys def lol at you behind your back. Like, you stick it to the man, dude! Being a good performer just indicates your cog dimensions, not your cofactor of scale. If you had a clue about what fuck you money is, you wouldn't even bring collars to the table.
