One anecdote I remember that is emblematic of your point: There’s a video from a couple years ago of him screaming at a bunch of high schoolers for wearing masks before he did a speaking event at their school. While I’m normally one to overestimate how stupid this country is, he’s gotta be painting with a pretty…

FWIW, the “Boomers control everything” issue is going to solve itself in about ten years. And hey, Boomers also make up 55% of Florida’s population, so the state's going to socially collapse before they sink into the ocean. Which is nice.

Yeah, his perpetual aggrieved attitude is not a winning strategy. When he’s showing an emotion that isn’t petty spite, he’s clearly faking and is longing to get back to his default state.

The combination of modern medicine and unlimited money for these old AF politicians means the boomers are refusing to go away.

I’ll say this much about DuhSantis, he often appears angry, resentful and refuses to give straight answers, which begs the question, ‘Why would anyone want someone who is so bitter to be President of the United States?”  “What I’m doing in Florida” is not an answer to the question of what his agenda is or is not.

It’s clearly this, yeah.

This is exactly the reason. Pelosi won't name names because hers is right after Strom Thurmond. 

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), formerly Speaker of the House, has been more vocal than most.

Facts! And it’s being said now about Biden.

Lol is that supposed to make us feel better? No no, it's ok that she's senile cause there's plenty of senile senators!

Worked from home for over 2 years during COVID during which the company acknowledged there was no reduction in productivity but in June 2021 they started making us go back one day a week, then later 2 days. I left for a fully remote job. Couldn’t be happier. Now I can live literally anywhere I want, there’s no commute…

This is such bullshit. It’s nothing more than execs wanting to get back to the good ol’ days of being able to lord over their minions to feed their superiority complex.

“the shift will promote “the collaboration, relationships, and culture necessary for employees to do their best work.”

Funny thing is, my job works closely with some of these big name tech companies. Any time we have a big project for a week on them we are given exceptions to fully WFH since we get so much more work done from there. 

I’d love to get some of that sweet board member money, but you have to have money and influence to get those positions.  And if I had the money, I wouldn’t need the job as a board member.

And someone who is a CEO of multiple companies at the same time is even more worthless, as they aren’t being an effective CEO of any of the companies.

This is a point I always bring up as well. Every company has (or should have) a process for dealing with employees whose performance is not up to snuff, and if it doesn’t then that’s a systemic problem that needs to be corrected.

Thing is, when the only metric is butts-in-seats, it’s a lot easier for people like the previous commenter to cover up how much work they’re not doing vs. goofing off with their work pals. 

For me, the absolute last thing I want is work friends. You’re lucky I bother to learn your name.

Exactly! Deep into quarantine my team was having Zoom happy hour, laughing over drinks and having an awesome time.
