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.

Now on top of my workload, which is already insane, I'm expected to set and meet personal goals by some arbitrary deadline? This shit is so condescending. I'm an adult, being paid to exchange my time and work for a salary. I don't need to be treated like a child and made to complete these homework assignments to prove my growth within the company. Anyone else dealing with this shit right now?

It's so BS that I now use ChatGPT to write most of this stuff for me because nobody cares what it says except for HR. They're just trying to justify their job and book up reasons they can use for why they fired you should the need arise.

It helps if you ask it to write in the style of some sample text so it doesn't sound fake, but even then, I'm not sure that I care enough to give HR even that much of my effort.

Doesnt that mean you gave that company your phone number when you signed up? When I learned that was mandatory to be able to use Chat GPT, i noped out. Dont need any more spam calls, for one!

No, I don't think so. I just used my Google account for it. My work uses Google Workspace, so I already had an account, and we have permission to use it as long as we don't reveal company proprietary data in using the service.

I'm not sure if it needs a phone number for personal use.

Nice! That sounds like a much better way to sign up.
