There are exceptions. My ex CEO and his nepo kids demanded ultrawides so they could more efficiently watch Fox News and get scammed by horny MILFS in their area that want to hook up NOW.
I have three monitors. FUCK.
I have eight. 🤡
I have one monitor but it’s really wide. What did that make me?

Its almost as if the more real work you do, the less you matter.
I wonder what would happen if the higher up in a company you get, the less you got payed. I’d imagine more actual work would be accomplished.
The higher you go the closer you get to the people who actually controls the capital. The CEO can have a personal relationship with the board, people who do actual work are merely a number to the higher-ups.
The CEO is usually on the board and a lot of the other board members will also be CEOs but yes
It saddens me the fact that there are people out there wanting to do more work.
The game is rigged. Do nothing and get paid.
Agree with you but depends on where someone work. It’s rare but some work are undeniably positive to the society.
I wouldn’t be in the field if I didn’t enjoy the work.
However I’ve positioned myself to make sure no work is ever unpaid, unless it’s for my own future startup idea.
But then people would lose their incentive to improve themselves!
Perfecting the art of brown-nosing.
Depends how lucky you are. There is a guy who works in upper management and he has the privilege to order new equipment for his office, which is all expenses paid by the company. He built a gaming computer complete with neon lights and four monitors right in his office.
“Honey, I will be late from work! I will be back at 3am!”

Absolutely no corruption in private industry tho the invisible hand takes care of it
4 monitors & 2 compiters at my last job; 1 computer and 3 monitors at this job… 🎵movin’ on up…🎵
Executives are the ones that could easily be replaced by AI.
Which is to say that you could replace them with a see n say wearing a tie.
Here is the expendability graph

If the guy with the “don’t-turn-off”-server gets fired everyone know that the ship will sink
I can verify that this is correct.
Middle management screens are used by everyone.

I have 3 monitors, what am I?

A two-monitor person who works so hard, they’re willing to give you three to make you happier.
A four-monitor person has access to inventory/procurement (it)
and yet… if it’s a company that’s a bit slack on security, the right command in the right place by someone with 2 monitors can kill the company dead.
A few well placed commands by a few lowly 2 monitor types are always the kind of things that derail companies on a fundamental level.
What senior management always forget is that they need us vastly more than we need them…
If all the two-monitor people get up and walk out, the company stops.
You can lose any other single rung there and still push on.
Compensation is inversely proportional to productivity.
Kinda reminds me this Game one plays in Theatre which is to Play The Status (you’re given a number between 1 and 10, with 1 having the lowest social status and 10 the highest, and you try and act as such a person).
Alongside the whole chin-down to chin-up thing, people tend to do more fast and confident moving the higher the status, but the reality is that whilst indeed up the scale in professional environment the higher the status the more busy and rushed they seem, the trully highest status people (the 10s) don’t at all rush: as I put it back then (this was the UK) “the Queen doesn’t rush because for everybody the right time for the Queen to be somewhere is when she’s there, even it it’s not actually so, hence she doesn’t need to rush”.
There was also some cartoon making the rounds many years ago about how people on a company looked depending on their social status, were you started with the unkept shabbily dressed homeless person that lived outside the vuilding, and as you went up the professional scale people got progressively more well dressed and into suits and such, and then all of a sudden a big switch, as the company owner at the top dressed as shabbily as the homeless person.
