I wish brands would stop trying to be funny

[-] SCB@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

I support people having fun at work and think it should happen more.

[-] Syrc@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

On social media? Fine, whatever. In rejection emails? …that’s not really something you get and have a laugh at.

[-] SCB@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

I understand your take. I feel like "professionalism" at all is just a lie we tell ourselves, and I don't personally value the overall purpose of it.

I'd prefer people have fun at work.

[-] Syrc@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

It has a purpose in situations like this, which have to be handled with tact.

I’m with you for everything else though, the issue is really highlighted by people writing casual emails and sending them professional-ized by ChatGPT, and the receiver passing through ChatGPT to make them more clear. It’s like we want to make things more difficult.

Oh I like people having fun at work as well, what I don't like is corporate communications trying to weirdly mimic people having fun at work. Maybe I'm just too cynical, but I often find these jokey comms to be souless and artificial and almost never feel like they're genuinely having fun
