>>> “Why does everything we do need to be ‘professional’ for work like that’s our only purpose in life?” asked Jessica Metzler. <<<
Agreed. My current job has repeatedly tried to insinuate themselves into my private life with oblique inquiries about my personal politics, my views on abortion, and with the stay-at-home orders of the past two years they’ve repeatedly tried to insist that they have a right to inspect my home.
This one evil b*tch from HR went so far as to come to my house unannounced demanding that I open my locked gate and let her in to ‘inspect’ my home office for ergonomic reasons. I told her no and she pitched a hissy fit.
After letting her go into ‘Berserker Karen’ mode for a good five minutes I calmly pointed out my home surveillance cameras and explained how I would be posting the video on You Tube is she or anyone else ever bothered me at home again.
No problems since.
My last employer hired a hacker to view our private non corp email accounts and messenger apps. I caught them and reported them to law enforcement. So far, LEO is doing nada. I am so sick and tired of intrusive aholes. FB, Twitter, ect? Mind your own damn business. When not on the clock, F off.
