      After about 20 years working, I'll tell young people you should not have any loyalty to any organization, they will turn on you in a second when its convenient and fire/replace you. Also to ensure no slavery, young people dont get married and dont get a girl pregnant, make sure she takes the birth control pill daily in front of you and both wear protection. You will just condemn your new child to increasing poverty and freedomless slavery totalitarians and these control/money/job trends worsen. Promote this idea in videos and social media to help prevent more young people into this new slavery.

      Hi Josh, there hasn't been a lockdown here in NZ for a long time like probably a year. It was normal here pre covid. The lockdown was totally unexpected, the PM said within 7-8 hours there's going to have a lockdown, it was already 5pm when she announced it, every office jobs here in NZ finish their work at 4-5pm, it's very relaxing to work here. And we have many benefits. The government is pro workers. The company probably was working on some very important project and they were caught off guard and the bed decision was out of necessity. It was totally unexpected as even before there was a lockdown, it wasn't in their area which is the south of NZ where they never had any lockdown before. I totally feel the frustration of the company as I myself and everyone else probably went to the office to get my laptop after the PM announcement.

    I stayed overnight in the office once, to deliver a big chunk of code to a client before some arbitrary deadline. Took me until 3am, there was some cot somewhere so I fell asleep there instead of risking a drive home after a stupid long day (18h). I really was proud of what I achieved, because it actually worked, had a bunch of optimizations and it was something I was happy to have my name attached to.
    Come the next day, no word from client. 2 days, nothing, 3 days.. nothing. Took 'em 5 days to acknowledge it. Their fucking deadline. So that was a great achievement and even greater letdown. So I learned to not give a fuck about client deadlines. Because 9 out of 10 times they're just some arbitrary date that gets moved anyway.

      Agree. I may be young, and thus did not need this channel to tell me the reality of modern work culture, I never saw anything different when I started working. This channel DID make me realize that some people do still run their business the old school way, and what to look for to identify one. So I went and found an entirely remote position working for an old-school trust-based employer. Ten grand raise, got to salary, less hours, no commute, no on call for a week straight BS, same benefits, way better holidays (mandatory day off for the Super Bowl even), and double the PTO w rollover. In my previous job, going above and beyond was a waste of effort. Now, my employer actually notices and rewards it. Do not give when you won't get back. I love my new job. My work life balance is better than ever. I feel like I'm on permanent vacation, and being that it's remote I got a doggo to keep my cat company. If you are thinking about finding a new job, DO IT.

      Hard work does not equates to results. Working smart does, working in a sustainable way does. What really grind my gears with those companies is that they aren't only imoral n greedy, they are dumb, no problem being greedy but can u really not think long term n how much more success/profits u would get overtime if all your workers actually like the company/work their best cause they are well rested, etc? It is like seeling seeds for 50$ when u could plant a tree n seel fruits non stop for triple the price each in a few years.
      Most japanese n Chinese companies i heard about are getting through by pure numbers game n bashing their head through problems while burning people like disposable resources. If those countries actually strived for productivity n results, sheesh, coupled with their numbers we would be dominated by them pretty quickly.

    Our boss seems to be taking a bit of heat in the comments section which is a bit rough so I wanted to jump in and set the record straight on a couple points. There was no way I wasn’t going to be part of these golf productions throughout our lockdown. I’ve worked on these gigs for the past 5 years and to miss the Fed-Ex because of a Level 4 lockdown was not an option. I let our boss know I would be moving into the office with a couple lads and we would look after the broadcasts. We knew it would be a laugh and have featured on a couple news stories since which was pretty funny but we certainly didn’t expect your angle. Ian’s one of the good ones, in March last year we lost every single contract and the first thing he did was call us and guarantee us our jobs. If he could operate the broadcast he would be in here with us 1000%. Unfortunately it’s pretty complicated tech and a stretch too far for the old fella (he’s 70) so we cut him a break.
