My job switched to mandatory 3 days in office starting today.
Took me 2 hours to get here. Get on a zoom at 10am and everyone else is at home.
Have another call in a few minutes with people in Boston that all work from home.
My job is easy and I get paid well but this is so stupid I want to quit. Just a huge waste of time and money getting here. I could take down the Christmas stuff when I’m done with my 2 calls, but nope, now I’ll need to save that for Saturday or Sunday.
Pretty sure they are using this a way to get rid of people too. Doesn’t feel like a great company any more. Mehhhhh happy new year

The Information reported some of the gruesome incidents that have occurred at the Gigafactory in Austin, Texas, where one out of every 21 workers were reportedly hurt in 2022.
This seems like a lot. Is that a lot or pretty average for car factories? -

6 wowsWhat in the actual Fuck - Dropbox edition
On Wednesday, news quickly spread on social media about a new enabled-by-default Dropbox setting that shares Dropbox data with OpenAI for an experimental AI-powered search feature, but Dropbox says data is only shared if the feature is actively being used. Dropbox says that user data shared with third-party AI partners isn't used to train AI models and is deleted within 30 days.
I just looked at my Settings and sure enough the shit is enabled, and I never even knew it was there.

Palermo Hollywood in BA is basically the east village, NYC, super flamboyant and everything is discounted to 1919 prices. You can get a single origin pour over and breakfast sandwich for 99 cents, and then grab a bottle of wine and a filet mignon with frites for lunch $3.50. -
