I work in a position surrounded by women, and most of them get very excited at the idea of doing "games" or creating "fun themed events" and all of that shit. I avoid participating as much as possible because it's all very juvenile and sterile. It just made me think that all of HR, the "creating a fun atmosphere," the forced "fun" activities that leadership thinks will "boost morale," etc, is really just the dying breaths of a suppressed maternal instinct. Whether or not they have children, it doesn't matter, as the fact that they are working instead of spending all of their time with their children unconsciously breaks them. Women have infantilized the workplace and demand a corporate environment that replicates the mother-child relationship dynamic simply because they have no other outlet for their maternal instinct. It's sad and pathetic.

I think it is just girl culture from high school moving in HR. They used to do banners and set up events that were meaningless but got a ton of praise for it.
They keep getting praises, mostly between themselves but it is enough for them to get a high dose of dopamine. It also feeds in to their main character syndrome.
Not just that, thanks to HR, women have been not separating motherhood from workplace and have applied the same behaviour to the work environment.
That and the banning of dating within the workplace as that used to help a large percentage of long term relationships to establish themselves.
I ban myself from dating within the workplace, whether it's officially against the rules or not. It's a bad idea, and anyone with a real career should avoid it like the plague. Don't shit where you eat. That piece of ass isn't worth losing your job over.
Same here. Even had a thot hit on me while we were all traveling together and staying in hotels. Would have been an easy fun night but I know the potential of her destroying not only my career but reputation and life was too much to risk.
What are you babbling on about?
The point is precisely that this didn't use to be the case, it's new. You're bragging on about your own oppression.
Humans evolved to date people in their own tribe who were around naturally. "You're prohited from dating in the environment you evolved to date in" is the opposite of a win.
Maybe don't treat dating like shitting?
I would never fuck a coworker, but I'd date one, in public.
If they want to get married, they quit. Simple as.
Good luck with that. It isn't getting married that's an issue. It's what happens when the relationship goes bad and then you are stuck working with a spurned ex who has motivation to go scorched earth on your career. If you date your coworkers, you are an idiot. It isn't worth the risk, ever.
And I can't believe I have to explain this, but "don't shit where you eat" isn't actually about literally taking a shit. It's an idiom that refers to how it is a bad idea to invite trouble to a place you regularly find yourself, like your place of work.
That's how we evolved to date, bro, we didn't evolve to have kids with total strangers we had no idea who they are.
There are soecies that do that, and things go one if 2 ways:
I've got to agree with this one. For a lot of them it's about making superficial efforts to be seen as "involved." It's not maternal. It's frivolous high school girl stuff.
I'd go as far as to say the ones who are the more maternal kind are actually the competent ones. I've seen a couple of project managers who can keep a dozen teams in almost as many time zones synced up with the laser precision of a mom getting a van full of kids to their respective sports practices on time. Billy isn't missing piano and that product is shipping on time.
Anyone in HR is a cancer though.
Please don't reply to me. You disgust me beyond measure.
The muds are working overtime. Looks like Israel flushes then out of their holes.
It'd be nice if you morons stopped funding them. But your kind are not known for intelligence. That's how your masters shoahed you again in 2021.
Okay pajeet street shitter pedo
The fact that you don't have a grasp on proper human resources management skills is one reason why your kind are still stuck in the dark ages, as nothing more than slaves to the Davos devils.
longhouse
This is test to see who will submit to their "authority". Anyone who doesn't convincingly enthusiastically participate is "outed" as an enemy because he doesn't accept their position over him in the social hierarchy. The harpies make notes and target the offenders for punishment to reinforce that structure.
It depends on leadership. Some ignore that shit while others will adjust your performance/promotion on the "culture fit" BS. Those day-in-life videos at tech companies compiled with i-got-fired/laid off happens. Maybe just not as often as we'd like.
I feel fortunate that throughout my life, when I've worked along side women they've typically been tomboys so instead of trying to change work culture, they integrate to be a part of it.
And that happens by meritocratic hiring not diversity quotas..
Stop replying to yourself, you dog-raping dalit.
You don't even own a plate to eat off, you disgusting dravidian. I've seen the videos of you people eating directly off the filthy streets.
I've noticed this too. most "fun and games" activities on my team have been proposed by women, and each and every one of those women has been fired for neglecting their job at one point or another.
To me, I think it comes more from a desire to create a more social space. our company still has a startup mindset so our work is constantly go go go. I personally love this as it means I can get a bunch done while still having a good work-life balance, but I can see this being draining on people who are more social than me (read: women).
And if you do participate in the games and inevitably dominate them, they get extremely angry that you are "discouraging them from participating" and start gunning for your job. My BIL is going through this at his job right now. He doesn't give a shit, so he isn't holding back at all. It's hilarious how fired up they are all getting at him.
The only thing HR has done for me since their department was spun up was spam the company chat with reminders about the latest mandatory "diversity and inclusivity" training which is essentially Whiteman bad over and over.
Then they have the balls to spin up a bunch of discriminatory clubs such as "women in (field)" that are clearly the opposite of inclusivity
There were a few studies done about childless women who will require that mothering nature, and if they have no children to attach it to, they'll find something that they will attach those feelings to.
Be it a job, a pet, a random brown immigrant, whatever. They'll find something to imprint on and make it their little baby.
I don't know if that's the case here, but it's worth noting.
My office is mostly all women and has a "fun day Friday" every month where we play games like charades or a coin toss or trying to lasso something for 30 minutes before work starts. I can't help but notice in every single game we play, the few men always dominate them.
At the end of the day, most women shouldn't be working and women in the workforce has been a huge net negative for our society as a whole. Nothing good has come from women participating in the workforce as equal to men.
100%.
They got their matriarchy.
I won't dodge a chance to shit on women, but I feel its less that and more of a "we gutted morale, how can we prevent workers from going Postal without spending money?" issue.
Everytime I've been forced to set up one of those gay things, it was entirely to "boost morale" and keep people happy. Whether it was to prevent union forming or people just outright quitting or becoming full disgruntled.
Its literally just that meme about corporate responding to demands for better pay with "damn nigga, here" and a pizza party.
But did it ever actually boost morale?
Depends on what we were forced to do.
Mandatory huddles and talks? Nah, everybody was always miserable and just went through the motions. Fortunately we never had to do the dances or other team building exercises you see around, it was rarely bigger than round table therapy sessions.
Free food and just hanging out for a bit? Yeah it did do wonders in getting everyone laughing and less miserable for the shift. It wasn't a long term solution to anything, but sometimes just sanding off the edges of a really bad day can average out to a less angry employee.
As horrific as it sounds to say out loud, corporate and I/O Psyche research isn't wrong when it believes that people will accept less pay with more pizza parties. And since in my time in middle management I couldn't do shit about the hours, pay or work being handed down, I could at least keep my employees from wanting to die everyday and quitting on me by fighting to get them free hot food.
You might be onto something here. I wonder if we can link wokeness, SJW-ism, and DEI to this as well, as those could easily be seen as warped versions of things related to motherhood.
I'm in engineering at a corporation, there's never much interest in such things in those groups. The sales and marketing types (extremely woman dominated) come around with this shit "omg get excited, it's fun!" No, fun would be letting me get back to doing my job so I can go home and do what I find fun. I do not want to do "team building", "exciting kickoff meeting", and what not.
Accurate
Why are you replying to yourself, pajeet pedo street shitter?
