Mostly true before, now 99.99%. The charades are so silly because obviously as a worker all I care about is how much I get paid. That’s it.
All the company organization will care about. Is that work gets done to their standards or above and at the absolute lowest price possible.
So my interests are diametrically opposed to their interests because my interest is to work as little as possible for as much money as possible. Their goal is to get as much work out of me as possible for as little money as possible. We could just be honest about it and stop the stupid games. I don’t give a shit about my employer anymore than they give a shit about me. If I care about the work that just means I’m that much more pissed they’re relying on my good will towards people who use their products and or services.
