A LinkedIn post by Collin Rutherford, a CEO. The post begins with Rutherford stating he received a message from his "Pakistani software developer this morning..." followed by a direct quote: "There have been some drone attacks in our area of residence. We're not sure what will happen next." Rutherford then comments on the employee's dedication, contrasting it with his experiences in the United States. He states, "It's hard to find this level of dedication in employees. In my experience, it's (almost) impossible to find it in the United States." Below the LinkedIn post is a screenshot of Slack messages. The first message is from "Hey team" at 11:40 AM, stating: "My purpose behind informing everybody in the team is that I want you guys to be aware and ready for any challenges that may come. I don't know what's coming next because it happened very sudden today. I'm suspecting that There can be delays in our communication, I'm not sure. But what I am sure about is that the tech team is going to be available." This message includes a thinking face emoji and a thumbs-up emoji. The second Slack message is from "Collin" at 11:42 AM, replying to the first message: "You're making me want to run through a wall. That got me fired up!!!" This reply includes a flexing arm emoji and a fire emoji.

The disconnect from reality here is just mind blowing. Dude needs to go overseas and witness how utterly terrifying a threat on your life you have no control over actually is. Sidenote: punchable face.

    Yeah actually mental.

    What he calls 'dedication' is actually fear at having to hold your job down during the middle of a fucking WAR because if you disappoint your corporate overlords you will be both getting missiles rained on you AND unable to support your family.

    It's desperation, and desperation which is very intentionally baked into the system so dickhead 'leaders' like these can get the slaves they are looking for and label that slavery as a 'positive work ethic'

    So out of touch with real people.
