Pretty much.
I worked in tech and there’s a lot of morally gray things.
For example: the law is pretty clear on what a company should and shouldn’t store as data. Yet every year, tech companies violate it. A few even get lawsuits because of how bad they did it. Thousands don’t.
The engineers (many who only want to do the right thing) see it pretty clearly. Don’t leak shit. Don’t give out personal info. Secure that shit. Extremely clear guidelines.
But, from our higher ups, we are constantly told “ah that doesn’t apply to us” and follow whatever the marketing/analytics/data team wants.
Been this way for decades.

A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•10+ year manager named Joe was apparently fired for bringing cookies to be thrown away before their sell by date to a food pantry in my town
57·1 month agoYep! Call me a skeptic on these stories. I’ve seen too many, “I was fired because I clocked in 5 minutes late!”
Only for it to come out that while they were fired for “being late”, it was the last straw because of all their HR complaints for sexually harassing dozens of women, offensive humor, and for creating a toxic atmosphere.
People would talk about Baltimore as being a really scary place.
And I wished they talk more about Tennessee being just a sad awful state.
I know it’s really easy to assume boomer === bad.
But to call them all Trump supporters is inaccurate.

If you said “All white people are Trump supporters”, that’s slightly more correct than old.
Question: did memes like this help?
Asking because I do street cleaning work in my neighborhood. And assholes keep throwing cigarette butts right on the ground.
I’d love to find a solution to have them quit smoking, which will lead to less cigarette butts.
I do this too. Shove it right into meals that it has no right in being in.
Burritos. Pizza. I often put it as a garnish below protein to force myself to eat it.
Thank you so much. I shouted no homo as I added quac to my long veiny burrito, and two-handed it into my mouth. I think I’m okay now.

Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•This is how Uber is manipulating americans. They sent an emergency message to everyone in the city, telling them to protest. The tax is $1 to improve public transitEnglish

politics @lemmy.world•Georgia mayor and 2 others are jailed on felony charges for trying to halt a local election

9·10 months agoI don’t think so.
When my city had a soda tax, every fucking store put a sign out calling it a war on poor people tax. But it was a $0.10 increase on sugary drinks to add to the educational budget.
Or maybe it is illegal but I live in a shit hole country.
Don’t trust her.
Only one way to know the truth.

So avocado doesn’t taste like clean dingaling?
Please answer Im about to get some guacamole and I’m insecure in my sexuality.
Mouth feels? Or like smell? Or like something else?
Is conservatives into avocado? I was led to believe woke millennials who suffer from bad financial decisions eat avocado toast.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Young US men are joining Russian churches promising 'absurd levels of manliness'English
2·10 months agoHey, you’re like me. I HATED soup for decades. Can soup BS was disgusting. Soup on the side of my burger, gross.
Then I went to a real soup place. Like all they did was soup. Like professional level soup that’s $8 a cup or $12 a bowl.
My god - it was incredible. I now understand the Soup Nazi bit of why anybody would tolerate that behavior.
I went from clean shaven anti-souper to a god damn soup coke fiend.
