There is no metric how they don’t trust people to do their jobs without close surveillance. The results are not enough, your company IT checking on you is not enough, you also need a shit for brains middle manager looking over your shoulder.

yes, my new manager is the kind of person, who talks about socializing, and work family, and goes around once a day just to see who is there, nods from the distance and fucks off…

I live 200 km from the office. They hired me to work remotely and only drive to the office about twice a month for team events and to meet visitors. It worked for years. Nobody cared as long as my work was done. I got promoted twice and every one of my managers wrote very good reviews about my performance every single quarter. Still its a pointless exercise, These days are by far my least productive. I drive 2,5-3 hours each way on office days and the open plan office is worst than a Turkish bazaar. Impossible to get work done.

Until last year we got a new CEO, our department got merged with another one and all of the sudden there is an issue with my “visibility”. I asked them repeatedly in what metric is this showing, since my numbers are always way above average. They said they didn’t look at my numbers, only the one which shows how many times I swiped my card a month.

Now they want me to come to the office twice a week. So I said its not very reasonable to ask this and now I got till September to change my attitude and improve my visibility or I can start looking for a new job. So I’m pretending to play along with this, but already looking for a new job. Wish me luck as the job market right now is an AI-centric hellscape with fake listings and data stealing traps. Honestly fuck big corporations.

Found mine ages ago in a CEX in London. It was on display and cought my eye while walking past it.

I went in and asked the staff for the Steam controller and they had no idea what I was talking about. Had to go outside with them to show it. They didn’t know they had it :D

Wanna bet?

I bet I dont have this gene

I can get behind your view, I feel the same.

Just to put it in perspective how bad the situation was in Hungary from up close, most opposition parties (leftist or not) had literally zero chance replacing the Orban regime in the past 16 years.

They destroyed their opponents with a brutal propaganda machine and twisted voting system (winner compensation). I saw it first hand, I lived there a few years and the brainwashing is not just a buzzword, most boomers love Orban more than their own families. I wanted to buy a house and live there, but we left after a couple years after we saw what the state media did to people.

This was probably the last chance to get rid of them and it was an incredible feat to pull off. Magyar might not be the most ideal candidate, but if your house is on fire you cant pick and choose the firefighters.

I’m happy to overcome my shortcomings and ignorance and learn from someone more knowledgeable. Do I understand correctly you put in this graph to predict a similar thing will happen? What are your other predictions? How is this relevant to this topic and why is important?

If your country prohibits its residents to go abroad for decades, then the borders open, and anyone can work or live abroad all of the studden I think its a normal thing to see. The worst part here is that the tendency continued even after Hungary joined the EU and Orban won his first elections.

Pretty much he promised to get rid of everyone who was an active member of the corrupt system. Also he plans to destroy all propaganda media, and wants to go after the oligarchs as well.

Its a lot and we will se how much he manages to fulfill of the promises, but if they manage to achieve only fractions of it, Hungary will be already a better place.

who is “we” ?

I see many “but he is also far right” comments. Peter Magyar might be on the right side of the scale, but he did not base his program on far right rhetoric at all. Its also impressive how many world class experts Magyar got for his party for major ministry roles. Many businessman and leaders from other sectors. Its a bit similar to the ruling change after the communism ended in Hungary, when instead of politicians, scientists, recognized intellectuals and experts got the ministry roles.

They seems to want to focus on repairing the damage, what Orbans gang caused, getting back all the EU funds and building up basic systems, like education and healthcare from scratch.

I’m part Hungarian and did not have a right to vote, but followed closely the whole thing and it might not look like it, but its a huuuge thing. All my Hungarian friends/colleagues are celebrating, after all they got rid of a cancerous tumor.

Its a one man band of snacks

Some people spend half their life reposting propaganda on social media behind fake profiles for free. She at least owns up to her beliefs.

They should add a bid option. Then watch people snipe your lunch the last second.

Thanks for posting this. Its good to see people with a completely different mindset showing alternative solutions can work, sometimes better than the original.

I live in the EU, but we still have serious car brain problem on the roads. Still not enough cycle paths.

Its a boring and shit board game, but shows perfectly how capitalism works.

Please explain to a complete doofus how can someone enforce this?

Cant they just download any linux distro from millions of different places and install them on any machine, even offline?

Just wait until AI will take most of these jobs. Then the rest can finally work 100+ hour a week. Yeah bro!
