Weird how an easily predictable event somehow catches every manager in America off guard.

They only had 20+ years to prep for this, cut them some slack

[-] bobs_guns@lemmygrad.ml 13 points 1 year ago

They can be predicted for much longer than that

I'm pretty sure the big orgs are using Microsoft Teams now.

A very slight bump in the road and the news comes to bat for them. Pathetic.

So fucking disgusting. People aren't allowed to live their lives without capitalists complaining that they owe them

I appreciated how the "contractors" (the owner's failsons) who are "renovating" (renovicting) the home next door handled the eclipse.

They took turns staring straight at the sun, then going, "Ahhhh, oh fuck, that burns! AAAAAHHHHH MY EYES! OH SHIT, OH FUCK!"

All three of them did it at least twice. It was glorious to behold. I wish I had recorded it.

Comrades Sol and Luna set aside their differences for the greater good.

Perhaps the "journalists" at NBC News should be made redundant to offset that massive productivity loss..

[-] Magician@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago

Fucked up thing is the way they're using AI to get clicks (and nothing else), these journalists are only accelerating their obsolescence.

Worth every penny

Comrade cosmos interfering with KKKapitali$$m

Strangely enough, our manager encouraged us to go out and look at the eclipse yesterday.

Nothing less than slavery can satisfy the elites

Avocado toast and eclipses…

[-] Abracadaniel@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

I went to [undisclosed location] for the eclipse with a lot of other people, and am really curious to know how much of an economic boon it is to have totality pass over your town.

[-] roux@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

Ww should have eclipses more often.

How much of that alleged lost productivity comes from bullshit jobs where people are just doing whatever they want anyway for 90% of the day
