Nowadays you seem to get fired when telling a "dongle" joke privately to another colleague, but someone overheard it. Sorry, but that is absolutely crazy.
I have a few fun colleagues that tell jokes all the time. If they get fired for this, I'm instantly quitting.
- srtjstjsj 6y agoThat mostly a tech "scene" thing, not outside the world of competitive performativity at non-academic tech conferences and Twitter.
- rjtavares 6y agoJust searched for that story, and it is indeed unfortunate. I'll grant you that social media and current climate created a new phenomenon of "mob justice" for inappropriate opinions or comments, but in the opposite direction people are less afraid of management/ownership than they were before (the victims of which are sometimes today's mob). I'm genuinely interested to know what the net result is.
