i’ve seen this before!
i think it was in a history book about the exploitation and living conditions of workers in victorian london factories :3
The Condition of the Working Class in England
When Marx had read this, he knew who was going to be his new best friend for live.

It’s depressing to think about how effective this mindset has been for drumming out or subverting humanity’s brilliance and creativity.

: NLO (Never leave office)Isn’t this illegal? Does the US have anti-sweatshop laws?
Ah but you see they’re all there voluntarily, so it’s fine!
Most states are also at will employment, which is a tool of the bosses to scare everyone into working themselves to death.
And a large number of workers in Silicon Valley are on H-1B visas, meaning that if they lose their job, they quickly lose their immigration status.
Sure but, I mean, what are you gonna do, sue your boss?

This is what I imagine hell like. Living in a corporate office. Good God
It looks like they house people after a hurricane or something.
Edit: or I guess indoor skid row
yeah, before i read the caption I thought this was an an unhoused encampment that had found somewhere sheltered to set up like a parking garage or whatever
an “SF indoors is like LA outdoors” thing.
Defragging your hard drive
Fragging your team leadI dont know what the laws are in KKKalifornia, but I imagine this is a fire code violation and would levy a huge fine against the company owner if there was any justice in society.
Unfortunately huge fines are the cost of doing business to these assholes.
Musk famously does not care about building standards
the worst part is they choose to do this
If you are young, single, no other obligations or hobbies this is probably kind of fun. Of course there is no way for an employer to do this without it turning hella toxic.
If I was young, single and had no other obligations or hobbies, I would still think long and hard about burning the whole place down, if this was even suggested at work.
I think that warming a chair for 8 hours
I did this in college with several buddies when we were working on our own game. The game ended up going nowhere, but it was very fun in a LAN-party kind of way.
I would never do this for an employer.
I imagine many of them would be fired and deported if they protest
fired
especially in AI there are tons of roles everywhere that won’t require them camping out in an office. anyone still at X is clearly a true believer
deported
uh, what. are these people immigrants?
US tech companies higher many skilled foreign workers on H-1B visas, often better educated than people here and easier to exploit with fewer protections.
I’m on mobile but imagine I replied with the amerikan flag burning

thank you for your service

I got you

Elon did a bit a fascist infighting over H-1B visas so probably plus some interns struggling to find work maybe
H1B visas
How was I not made aware of this radical change that xAI wants to impose on me? This cannot be of Elon’s doing, he would have told me, as he loves all of his children—those of flesh and bone as well as those of zeros and ones. Someone must have infiltrated the xAI company! But why me? Could it be because of my awareness campaigns on the suffering the poor white South Africans? If yes, this is sickening! This “Grokipedia” update is no more than a brainwashing update for yours truly! These ghouls are not content in pursuing their genocide in impunity, they wish to silence all brave dissidents that stand in their way or even just denounce their crimes to the world!
Skid Row but for techbros
Alternatively: silicon alley
Dumb guy’s idea of a smart guy’s idea
This is… unsurprising unfortunately, coming from fascist union-busting elon musk.
??? ??? what the fuck?
When Elmo bought Twitter he had the remaining people doing this too.
