    You silly proles. You misunderstood. Bezos 100% means what he said. But he was talking about people. He just doesn’t see his employees (or you) as people.

    Yeah this stuff is rage bait. If workers ever get 3 day work week, they will simply get half their salary as well.

    For most people you can’t pay your bills with half your salary.

    I’m getting tired of seeing tech make everything worse for human beings. It was not the idea from the start. This is because big tech has become as powerful as entire countries. And their culture is about max profits, of course.

    All of this was predicted in many books and scifi movies but still we are unable to stop this development.

      There are some people out there that have the power to create policies but also for some reason want to do good for people in general. Except that they don’t understand tech. This is to bait them into becoming “for AI”.

    i mean, that would be the appropriate use for any tech: reduce workload, better invome, more free time.

    i just have an inkling, that people like bezos would not be in favour of paying their employees the same or more for less work hours…

    I never realized until this picture just how fucking stupid Bezos looks.

    No wonder his hot wife left him.

    Even though amazon work situation sounds like slavery with extra step, there are still lots of people willing to work there regardless because they got little choice in this dystopia , sigh.
