You're reducing the relationship to that of the proverbial cog.
"I provide the teeth, you provide the torque, I get money, you get profits. Anything else is wasting company resources."
...Where's the joy in that, and what benefit is there to rejecting company-funded efforts to inject joy?
- qbasic_forever 4y agoWhen the company misses profit expectations you can be damn sure they'll rip out cogs and throw them on the street without a second thought to save money and get profits up again. Don't kid yourself or fall for corporate propaganda. You are a cog and you will be treated as such.
- inanutshellus 4y agoYou're changing the context and thus missing the argument. We were talking about Google "slashing travel and swag budgets at a time when “Google has record profits and huge cash reserves,” as it did coming out of the pandemic." and GP opined that he only wanted to show up for a paycheck and not get any extra benefits like travel budgets. You've reversed the context to "You ARE a cog!!!" which is irrelevant to GP preferring to decline extra benefits when they exist.
