Twitchy: The NY Times Tech writers may be the biggest group of snowflakes in America. They should be embarrassed to be this silly.
So, they want no scented products in the break room, time off when pets pass and unlimited breaks. Seriously, grow up. more
That’s not a workplace, that’s a daycare center.
Plenty of unemployed IT workers to take those jobs.
I can see the scented products ban… There has to be some limits. I mean I couldn’t eat lunch in the break room with some blue haired they/them type roasting marshmallows over a Gywneth Paltrow vagina scented candle.

Ummm… “the average total compensation of someone in the Tech Guild unit, including salary, bonuses and restricted stock options, is $190,000”
Also, “Times management has been frustrated by proposals that would provide more money for nonwhite staff and others from underrepresented communities to attend conferences, and language that would prioritize non-citizens in the US on visas in the case of layoffs — both of which the paper pointed out couldn’t be fulfilled because they likely violate employment laws.
While the union has withdrawn or reached agreements with the paper on some of these issues, the paper has been alarmed that the union has continued to push for a provision on journalistic integrity that would allow the non-editorial union to have a say in editorial decisions, including the right to request letters to the editor not be published.”
I didn’t care before. I don’t care even harder now.
The ultimate brats work (or vent) at the NY Slimes. They’re otherwize unrmployable.
Pets – does that include gerbils?
“The Times Tech Guild, a group representing more than 600 software developers and data analysts at The New York Times…”
Good lord, 600 pampered neckbeards? Did they all come scurrying over from the Twitter RIF? I hear that one of the hills these doughy dipshits want to die on is the right to work from their couch at home. Covid is over, you guilded lilies. Get on the bus.
Pet bereavement leave, for when the gov’t raids your home and kills you squirrel.
“All the news that’s fit to wipe one’s ass with”
And I have been to MANY college campuses where this shitrag was provided daily for free!
