Maybe they could donate their own money.

There’s loads of evidence linking excessive phone and social media use with mental health issues, and taking phones away is an easy win.

Do some people actually get these messages? It sounds almost illegal. I get emails from management moaning at me for not using my annual leave and reminding me to take them before they reset.

Seems like a terrible investment, I can’t see what they can possibly do to add value. Everybody who wants to use Reddit is already on it and anything they do to try and milk it will just lose them users.

I once met a guy who made at least 20 times what I make and didn’t know how to spell dolphin. He was a bit better than me at trading commodities though.

Shit, that’s a real post. The whole account is just talking about how nobody uses TeamSpeak anymore.

I hate Windows for all the monetisation and privacy issues but I never really had problems with it killing my computer.

$400,000 isn’t even that much for a company like this, it might’ve cost that much just trying to fight this.

These kinds of places can look idyllic until it’s 5:30pm on a Friday and the only place to get a drink closed half an hour and the streets are all empty. Then they start to feel pretty boring.

It took me ages to realise this. People with ADHD are always portrayed as lazy but they don’t struggle with hard work, they struggle with boring work. Before I knew I had ADHD I always found I was getting in trouble for not finishing boring work so I always used to prioritise tasks by how much fun they were and start with the most boring. I just ended up getting nothing done.
