Had a 9am scheduled meeting today. By Product to go over work needed in the upcoming sprints.

My boss announces that it is to be re-scheduled because of the inaugeration. Then at stand-up at 9:30, he goes on and on about how we are a 'unified country' now, blah, blah.

I came this close to saying, 'Are you fucking kidding me?"

Thinking about filing a complaint with HR, but that probably will blow up in my face despite it supposedly being anonymous.

Note: my boss isn't so overtly political like this usually. But I think he crossed a line here despite my reaction to any of this. Meetings are a bitch to schedule at where I work because everyone is busy at most times, for example.

The left wins because the right never stands up for itself

If the sidewalk leading up to the office when you arrive is lined with crucified Trump voters, you know you are in trouble.

That's passive/aggressive behavior.
It must suck having a boss; I guess the money is worth it.
Be careful and have lots of "fuck you money" ready.
He's being an asshole and doing it intentionally; he could watch the inauguration later on YouTube if he really were that interested.

Just make sure to be ready to take your skills and jump ship when it’s convenient and you can get a better offer. If the boss or company doesn’t treat you fairly, you can take your ball and go to another field.

I already got woke-fired from the job before this because a Slack mob tried to get me to basically 'bend the knee' online when the BLM crap was going on last June. I refused and it caused a total shit-show. . So easy for you to say.

I hope I didn't upset you, I'm having a fair amount of problems with work and my personal life as well. My comment was about the right more than about you. The right has got to band together and push back.

How do we do that?

The left wins as they accept slavery.
Right can only fight or become slave.

FIRST THING we have to get as many police and military personnel on our side as we possibly can.

It should not be that hard. They are already inclined to see things the right way. Pun intended.

dont do it. politics is not a protected category. if he says some racist shit like "russia stole elections" or "white people are supremacists"... you got a case. bring a voice recorder to meetings, useful evidence.

your boss sounds clueless, unity doesnt come from one person, but doesnt mean he is bad guy, probably listens to cnn/npr too fucking much.

Agreed - not a reason to get too pissed about. People move meetings all the time for dumb reasons.

Not yet!

This should be our reason for being now.

Without the right to have political opinions without getting fired or censored for them, we have no rights at all.

You should have shit on his desk while he was distracted by the inauguration.

I just lost a friend today. He (military guy 41 years old) and my 21 year old
daughter were talking and they both agreed that Biden should make getting the
vaccine mandatory. I asked him..."Didn't you just spend the last 20 years defending
freedom?" His cog dis sent him into a hyperbolic seizure. He did what the left
always does...end communication and cancel friendships. I told him I don't worship
the military, I worship God.
15   Patrick   2021 Jan 20, 7:57pm  

He's not much of a friend if that's all it took. So you didn't lose much.

@HunterTits my slack and zoom sessions have been similar. So far my cover hasn't been blown. I haven't had to say anything I just smile and stay quiet.

This post:

Fucking-A! That's the way to go. I'm going to make it a goal though, I can't do it now. If I'm found out my career is over and it's booming right now. So. My angle is to make as much fucking money as I can, get the fuck out of CA as soon as I reach my goal and then I'm going to do that.

Hell, I might even been in the same area as TenPound by then and we can tag-team.

Incidentally, my manager says, "I hate white people". Yet he knew I was white and actively recruited me from another company (he used to work with me there). He likes me... I just wish he wasn't suck a fucking racist.

Similar story here as well. Except one of my best friends who "didn't want to talk to me until after the election". If he tries I'm going to send him a message, "Lets chat after the election", meaning 4 years from now (at which point I'm not really expecting it) and any further contact will result in a single reply: "censored" and any further messages I'll just block his number / app account etc. Fuck that guy.

What's sad is, I like him. He is an otherwise good guy. He has helped me many times and I have helped him. It is possible I would remain friends with him but not if I have to hold my tongue. Friends should never have to worry about what they say around each other, imo. This is, I'm sure, why most people can count the number of good friends they have on 1 finger. Yes, 1 finger.

That's the thing. Mine has run around telling people I'm a Republican who voted for Trump. Fucking loose lips sink ships.

Looks like the one friend you could count on one finger was on the middle finger -- shoved up your ass.


Nah, I still have bay area friends, SoCal friends and friends I grew up with in TX. Lots.

Ha! The only cunt in my team who added fucking BLM to xis e-mail sig once said to me that xe "won't be literally phisically able to live in SLC" because "to many White people". It was several years ago and I let it slide then. Having a yuuuuge remorse for not ratting xer ass to HR.

We think we need a job and an organization to succeed in life; what we actually need as primate males is some independence and also money.

Fuck the prestige of saying that you are X position at Y company; which girl are you trying to impress or which wife are you trying to please?

We think we need “old friends” and must get along with them; not always. Are you still friends with old girlfriends?

I say fuck them all; I hear from one liberal doxy from high school that she still thinks I’m a “good person” even though I lack compassion for her pet illegal aliens. She’s offered to let me stay in her Nantucket house, like a bribe to be nice back to her.

No fucking way; I’m my asshole self and like they say in England, “tough darts”.
Just build up the fuck you money, invest for capital appreciation and never let up.

My maternal grandmother was a clever businesswoman since the 1920s; she never lacked cash, she never took shit, she never conformed, and she was absolutely awesome. As a child I liked her, now as an adult I admire her.

Watch this:

The same constitutionality that prevented Trump from blocking repetitive extremely abusive and profanity laced accounts from commenting, will be instantly reversed
Biden blocked all comments on it's official WH channels on Youtube
We'll see Insta and Twitter and Facebook shut down comments with aggressiveness
