Gee, I wonder who makes the decisions about linking those things, and why they might do that? It wouldn't be to force the issue, now would it?

No shit you "believe" they'll become linked because as the "company leader" you're the one writing the fucking policy linking them. So much talking out their ass like they're not the ones making this decision.

Jesus Christ these chucklefucks really want people to break out the guillotines, don't they? They're practically begging for it.

After seeing the world work perfectly fine without people having to suffer for their jobs... it's hard to unsee the purposeful pain and suffering they inflict on us

Some of us saw it the whole time, but it had been so normalized there was hardly any pushback.

CEOs probably felt useless during COVID and realized the company doesn’t need them, so they want to exercise their power to necessitate their position.

Sort of like how some celebrities couldn’t cope with COVID because everybody was doing their own thing and paparazzi couldn’t report on them as much.

Probably more that they've always been keenly aware how they're just vampires sitting on the labor of everyone below them, and COVID scared the bejeesus out of them, because suddenly other people could see that, too. It did more to show lowly workers this was always the case than it spurred any self-reflection in CEOs.

COVID showed the Emperor had no clothes, and this is simply the Emperor scrambling to find anything to cover up with.

Man, being a celebrity in Hollywood took a HUGE hit in Covid... they are borderline irrelevant at best and thought of as unintelligent, entitled clowns at worst.
