People who proudly boast about how they never spend a dime on Epic Games, in their store, but has hundreds of free games to play with no intent to play them. Like, I don’t know who is supposed to be impressed by that. Not to mention, that’s not really a good method of protesting if you’re someone who hates Epic Games.
You’re still spending the time and effort, not to mention even bothering to have an account with them to begin with, to redeem free games that they give away. Who are you seriously trying to impress or what message are you trying to convey? Because all I see are contradictions and ironies.
Made me think of a documentary I saw, on some Americans working in Norway, where an American guy was asked what the biggest difference was between Americans and Norwegians, and he proudly proclaimed “Norwegians work to live, Americans live to work”.
My company was absorbed by a US company, and it’s pretty accurate.
And, I think they think it must mean that this dedication makes them good at working.
But they fucking aren’t. I constantly have to remind my coworkers that they’re not paid by the hour. Work hard, work smart, we can finish up and call it a day. Nope. I swear to god these people are actively contriving ways to ensure we work so badly that it necessitates working late. Which we do not get paid for.
Then they flex about thier work culture, thier long hours. You fools did this to yourselves, voluntarily, for literally no benefit.
