Oh, don't joke about the type of laptop
Our boss knows that having TrackPoint is a "conditions of employment" issue. Yes, it's a privilege... at the same time, it's what we spend 50+hrs of week on, so it needs to not cause ergonomic and usability issues every second of every minute of the day ️
- tnolet 7y agoI get people get all riled up about this. Even more when they are young and have no real perspective. But it gives tech workers in general a really bad vibe. Pompous, spoiled brats. Of course, most of these people are nice human beings, but somehow they get lost in minutiae and 0th world problems the moment they join some hot startup.
- unethical_ban 7y agoYes, we can have discussions about 1st world problems of work conditions that don't involve hazardous machinery or manual labor, or have poor wages. But that whole "don't complain, people have it worse" vibe extends to almost anyone living in the United States vs other countries where money means nothing, rule of law doesn't exist, or the mother country is about to slaughter thousands of people for wanting democracy. The point is: Maintain perspective, but still continue bitching about the uncomfortable chairs.
