“Employees aren’t experiencing highs or lows — instead, they are expressing a sense of resignation or even apathy,”

Have these people never seen Office Space? All of this is completely normal. Workers don't like working. That's why it's called "work." FFS Futurama made a poster about it.

“I don’t hear as many people saying ‘I want to make more money’ or ‘I want to climb the corporate ladder.’ Now, it’s ‘I want to feel more connected to my work,’ and ‘I want to be excited about what I’m doing.’”

That's funny because all I hear "I want to make more money."

These people are living in an alternate reality. That's the only explanation. Nobody could be this aloof.

I'm on my third edit now, JFC these people are dumb:

New Gallup research shows that remote employees, in particular, feel increasingly disconnected from their workplaces’ mission and purpose.

That's the point! I love being disconnected from work! I don't care about the mission, just the money! I used to care about the mission, but that didn't pay the damn bills. You think I'm here because I want to be?

“It’s all about creating an environment of belonging, hearing and being understood,” she says. “You don’t need to fix everyone’s problems in a day — even aiming to have one meaningful conversation or check-in with the people you manage, once a week, can make a huge difference.”

That's it managers, just do one nice thing a week. That's all you need to do.

Inequality should be lower, too.

If people stopped working for employers and started working to improve the lives of family, friends, and society, the economy would crumble.

When companies do good, that's a good economy. Companies do good when they make a lot of profit. Companies make a lot of profit by paying their workers way less than what they make selling the thing they make.

So when workers are ripped off more, the economy does better.

Fuck the economy.

I'll have you know trombone players aren't the nerds you think they are. Large lung capacity and dexterous tongues make them very popular with the ladies, ifyaknowhatimean
