A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Just did this today, because I learned our departmental bonus is based on our attendance average. I don’t even mind going into work that much, because it’s a nice walk for me in the morning and evening. But if you’re gonna tie annual bonuses to it, you bet your ass I’m gonna cheese your stupid attendance metrics, because engineers are GREAT at maliciously complying to achieve stupid metrics. You pay me to solve problems for you. You do not pay me to warm a chair for you.
