  • My company got bought out by a much larger company a few years ago. The thing I always tell people is that all of the problems with a small, family-owned company pretty much evaporated immediately. However, they were replaced with a whole set of new problems.

    All of the openly racist old men are gone, and I feel a lot safer at work wearing my hair long and telling (select people) that I am queer. Now, there is private equity and uncertainty that there didn’t used to be. I got lucky and some of my coworkers didn’t. My new management team is wonderful and I do make a bit more money than I used to. Overall, I’m happy with some of the things that have happened. But, I am planning to get as much as I can out of the experience and eventually find something else.









  • I’m going to assume the context of this is old machines that still run Windows XP or something that are connected to expensive equipment with proprietary software. We have these at my job and if a computer broke, we had to buy a Windows xp build on ebay because our IT department laughed at us and was like “this is not our area and you are not networking any of these pc’s” I love the sign though haha
