Smart dude. He has a friend who is a lawyer, I guarantee this. Seems like fishing for the firing because he put them in a legally tough situation.

Their HR probably demanded it and now they'll have to settle if they are lucky.

I think most people have some kind of friend that's a lawyer. I do agree it seems like he's trolling them -- well, trolled them.

Good.

Go fuck yourself for thinking that self-identification isn't valid when you decide it isn't.

You'll address him with those fucking pronouns until you fucking die and you'll fucking like it.

The HR minion unilaterally sent out a "put your pronouns in your email signature" bleat and our CEO promptly set his as "Fucking/Nonsense".

It was quickly rescinded. Moral of the story? Pick who you work for more carefully. If he ever sells or leaves the company I'm out. Same with most of the coders I work with.

HR is a fake discipline for dumb yet high-paid women that should be abolished.

Seriously, how the fuck do you press r when going from a to d? 🤔 Or was this typed by someone with fingers like Prince King Charles?

I have no emoji for sausages, I am sad. 🌭

Thankfully, unlike other cloud-based password managers, you can host it yourself.

You know, I think Assigned By God's solidly right in this case, legally speaking.

My issue is that "assigned by God" can't even be used as a pronoun. If you're going to troll, at least put some effort into it. How about "God's Assigned Programmer"? That'd work as a pronoun if treated as an honorific.

If you have a problem with it, take it up with Assigned By Godself.

"His Holiness" is a pronoun I think.

My guess would be some sort of unintelligible language that you couldn't understand a single word yet you would somehow perceive it's meaning perfectly unlike with human language where even if you understand the words you can miss out on some of the meaning behind them.

Not a bad idea for getting severance. My company's org chart bullshit just added an option for pronouns.

It's everywhere. If they're gonna force this shit on us, we need to exercise our rights and sue them for discrimination if they don't like it.
