These guys pick the worst way to even communicate helpful message

The sadness is unparalleled. I can't imagine how this is what we have come down for in the name of content. :(

Investor

Engagement profiteering and sympathy farming off someone's passing away is just pathetic and shameful.

They will stoop to any level if it gets them a few hundred likes and increases conversion to their actual business.

Stop gathering sympathy using the poor fellow please!

POV after your death meme

Welcome to News Discussion's Private Community

Sincere request to all the so-called linkedin and twitter “influencers” to stop literally mooching off the dead soul to create content & gyaan around mental health. Please stop naming him and spare some dignity/privacy and respect for him?

It is enough of a shame that his name has been revealed in public. Why are we deteriorating it further? Is there no empathy left?

Legally too, btw the case is under investigation.

The death of Indian FinTech

Operations Manager

I have been through ups and downs in IT, but these layoffs seem crazy. There is just no pattern to it, more like everyone is firing let me fire.

Honestly I feel its high time Tech companies, Startups take a hard look at their business and revenue model. Most just seem to be in a herd mentality.  Every one is mass hiring, let me also mass hire. Every one is giving exorbitant salaries, let me also give.

Its become more a cycle now, hire in large numbers, find there is no work to give, no revenue to sustain, and so mass fire again. This just cant be going on. 

Who makes mistakes that results in revenue loss or crunch? 

Top management 

Who gets fired ? 

Every one except the ones who are responsible.

Dont fucking give me the reasoning that you are doing this for efficiency and streamlining.

No you are just doing it to protect your own arse, while making scapegoats of others.

So the Musks, Pichais, Zuckerbergs happily take fat bonuses, while drafting teary regret letters for firing. And they are supposed to be our role models to look up to? 

Enough is enough IT industry can't forever be running in this same mode. These hire and fire cycles are getting weary nowadays.

One thing you wanna do if you were to die in a week?

Growth Manager

Stop this for fucks sake!

So some director/SVP level employee of my company passed away and my company is forcing all the employees to pay a whole day's salary to their family in order to fill the void. They are not even asking for it, they just sent a mass email mentioned a day's salary would be deducted for this month and would be shown as Commiseration Contribution in our salary slips.
Below is the email we received: 

"Very recently we lost our dear friend and colleague XXXX, leaving behind a legacy and a 10 year old son whose Birthday was on XXXX,I saw his wife put up an old picture of XXXX with his son cutting a birthday cake from yesteryear’s celebration.

While nothing we do can fill the void the family is enduring, the least we can do in order to support the family is, with a one-time employee contribution for 1 day, across the board, included in the pay cycle of October ‘23. You would see the amount as 'Commiseration Contribution' in your October ‘23 salary slip. "

Furthermore, they even have the audacity of mentioning "In case anyone would like to contribute more than a day’s salary, or needs assistance on any additional information, kindly write to us"

Kindly help, how do I not let the deduction happen? Also, this isn't the first time this is happening, last time similar happened was for some managerial level employee and that was just half day's salary so we did not object for that, but this is just completely senseless.

TLDR: How do I stop a deduction from my salary for an employee passing away.

My company is forcing me to pay Commiseration Contribution.

Another BoFA employee passes away from cardiac arrest

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

OK hear me out.
Our birthday is day we got introduced to this world, no work no effort on our end. Our mothers pushed us out after 9 months.
Then why do we celebrate and take gifts when we didn't really do anything

Why do we celebrate ourselves on our birthday?

In case of untimely death do you have some kind of fail safe or dead man's switch setup?
If still unclear imagine recordings left by Tony stark for his wife & child in case he died.

A switch triggers after sometime you die and maybe shares saved recordings/passwords/bank details/insurance policy with loved ones, deletes your browsing history & bricks your hard drive, sends some fuck you mails to some cunts you have known in life etc etc.

Do you have a dead man's switch or fail safe and how does it work?

We all be here, nominating each other in bank accounts life insurance and what not
What's the legal recourse?
