yeah, you put in for it early enough for your management to have the time to properly prepare for your absence. However what this is saying is that you should shoulder this responsibility at the cost of your entitlements, rather than the company doing the work of preparing for you to use your entitlements.

Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.worksto Curated Tumblr@sh.itjust.works•I wonder what the rapture equivalent is?English1·2 days agoI said their efforts, then clarified that when stripped of organization names, and laid out as the specific activities they advocate, those activities get this response.
Brand recognition, damn near everyone on lemmy knows your name
I have literally been given a nearly identical speech about taking PTO, more than once…
Yeah I have been given an almost identical speech about taking PTO at more than one place of work. So if this is satire, all it is doing is just saying something that really happens.
Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.worksto Curated Tumblr@sh.itjust.works•I wonder what the rapture equivalent is?English1·2 days agoYou can only speak for yourself, but there are plenty of people on here, and other leftist spaces, that do just that. This does not seem to be a thing in person. Also, you keep getting hung up on the PSL’s reputation. Strip the association, and discuss the very specific things you are doing to advocate for your position, in real life, and you get that. Well maybe not you, as you have brand recognition with a lot of these twats, however, I assure you, it happens to others, fairly regularly, I am also talking about /c/'s not on .ml, .ml people. They have to behave at home.
Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.worksto Curated Tumblr@sh.itjust.works•I wonder what the rapture equivalent is?English1·2 days agoI have been told, and have seen others get told, that they are wasting their time with incrementalist pipe dreams, when discussing actual things we are doing, things that that organizations like the PSL advocate. Most often those names have a .ml home instance, and this is ignoring the known trolls who are on their 1000th account on .world just trying to start fights. This happens regularly enough that I have all but stopped talking about it because I don’t want to have yet another person trying to argue that I need to be killing MAGA cultists, and blowing up infrastructure, or I am just another one of them. It became mind numbing. It did greatly reduce when I moved to an instance that blocks hexbear, which is probably why I have since been noticing the .ml names.
Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.worksto Curated Tumblr@sh.itjust.works•I wonder what the rapture equivalent is?English1·2 days agorefer to my later comment, it isn’t the organization name, it is a reaction to talking about doing the individual things, things they are doing, and being told it is worthless incrementalism
Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.worksto Curated Tumblr@sh.itjust.works•I wonder what the rapture equivalent is?English1·3 days agoYes, when you put a name to it people say they like them. When you say you are doing a specific things organizations like that support those efforts are mocked. Unless you want this to be a case of “don’t believe your lying eyes”.
Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.worksto Curated Tumblr@sh.itjust.works•I wonder what the rapture equivalent is?English1·3 days agoThe ones you posted have had their efforts mocked because they operate within the framework capitalists give them, and are not actually revolutionary. I have watched it happen, many there seem to think if there isn’t violence, then nothing is happening. Also, no, I do not apologize for authoritarian governments, regardless of their alignment with capitalism. Nor do I support censorship of criticisms of places because they aren’t aligned with NATO.
Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.worksto Curated Tumblr@sh.itjust.works•I wonder what the rapture equivalent is?English1·3 days agoAnd these are the behaviors I have seen so many people in online leftist spaces call useless, and incrementalist, as they are not preparing to actually revolt, they are working within the legal framework given to them by the capitalists. It seems you and I have a more closely aligned idea of change than a large amount of people who are on .ml. I also highly doubt most of these people will be able to deal with the violence then wish to incite with a revolution. I know how it is to kill, people, so I don’t tell people they should.
Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.worksto Curated Tumblr@sh.itjust.works•I wonder what the rapture equivalent is?English1·3 days agoYeah and I am a member of the two that are in my area. They all subscribe to incrementalism as people on your .ml would put it, though. None of these are preparing a revolution, they would labeled terrorist organizations, and destroyed very quickly if they did anything, actually, radical, like the ALF/ELF, while being so visible.

Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.worksto Curated Tumblr@sh.itjust.works•I wonder what the rapture equivalent is?English166·5 days agoAnd not a single one is doing anything to actually revolt, just sitting online talking shit on people who are actively doing things because “incrementalism is useless, we need a revolution”.
Sorry creating lemmy isn’t starting the revolution, getting together a small amount of people online to talk about a parallel societal formation isn’t starting a revolution, being civically inactive is not starting a revolution, buying a bunch of guns is not starting a revolution, talking about moving away from corporate tracking tools is not starting a revolution, switching from US to Chinese propaganda is not starting a revolution. As lame as all the gravy seal militias in the US are, they are numerous steps ahead on the starting of a revolution.
