I have often wondered what would happen if social product orgs required all dev and product team members to temporarily rotate through moderation a couple times a year.
- Teever 2y agoYeah I've wondered the same thing about jobs in general too. Society would be a very different place if everyone had to do customer service or janitorial work one weekend a month.
- ANewFormation 2y agoMany (all?) Japanese schools don't have janitors. Instead students clean on rotation. Never been much into Japanese stuff but I absolutely admire this about their culture, and imagine it's part of the reason that Japan is such a clean and at least superficially respectful society. Living in other Asian nations where there are often defacto invisible caste systems can be nauseating at times - you have parents that won't allow their children to participate in clean up efforts because their child is 'above handling trash.' That's gonna be one well adjusted adult...
- alex-korr 2y agoI can tell you that back when I worked as a dev for the department building order fulfillment software at a dotcom, my perspective on my own product has drastically changed after I had spent a month at a warehouse that was shipping orders coming out of the software we wrote. Eating my own dog food was not pretty.
