Respecting Gig Workers and Office Antics

Corporate Pizza Party

JOur lighthearted chat about Farrah's "new mom" look smoothly transitions into a conversation about quirky baby products, including a donut-shaped pillow for toddlers learning to walk before we finally getting into bashing what may be one of the worst Linkedin posts of all time.

Listen in as we humorously dissect the post's lack of genuine engagement and the defensive responses from the original poster. We also touch on the ease of automating responses to job applicants and the collective effort by LinkedIn users to call out nonsensical posts. This conversation inspires a creative idea for a TikTok series based on corporate and HR-related insults, turning professional jargon into witty comebacks.

We then explore the societal stigma around jobs such as driving for Uber or bartending, emphasizing their respectability and potential networking opportunities. The discussion highlights the importance of respecting essential workers and the reality versus perception of jobs like BART employees in San Francisco. We share personal anecdotes about layoffs at Bungie and the broader implications for employees in the gaming industry. Wrapping up, we examine the challenges faced by laid-off employees and recruiting teams, ending on a light-hearted note with a funny office recording mishap. Join us as we share our thoughts, express confidence in our work, and invite you to join us for the next pizza party.
