We had to fill out a “personal biography” at work

    Oh, no reason. But I was called into my manager's office because I hadn't turned it in early. I told everyone around me that they were looking to cut employees by figuring out who could handle more jobs.

    Under "Hobbies" I put "Privateering". Under "Fluent Languages" I put "None".

    Haha, nice job helping your fellows cut thru the crap and protect themselves.

    Unrelated but i remember being called into my managers office for not completing an "anonymous" survey (one of those where all the questions are how much your love your job) and when i asked "how do you know that?" She didn't have an answer. Eventually i filled it out larping as a bootlicker.

    Corporate surveys are nakedly searching for exploitation avenues... Luckily corporate is also dumb as shit

    What is the point in surveys when we can't trust them enough to fill them in honestly? It is just a complete waste of time, then again that would describe most things HR send my way.
