Yeah, I don't particularly care about my coworkers, but I feel I would notice if someone died at their desk or didn't show up for days unexpectedly.
I don’t particularly care about my coworkers
Damn, it sounds like a toxic environment with people you spend one third of your day with; it is just your regular corporate environment, most likely.
I work in a kitchen, people tend to be fairly negative and miserable. The leadership above me is untrustworthy and mostly concerned with their own trajectory. I say I don't particularly care because I would not choose to associate with them if I had a choice. This doesn't mean I don't help people at work or look out for folks, though I do the same for people outside of work I don't personally care about. I'm not sure if that makes sense, but you don't have to care about a person individually to treat them with human kindness.
They are suggesting that coworkers aren’t friends. They can be but probably usually aren’t.
The article says it happened on a Friday, so it makes more sense now, but Christ, that's terrifying.
It sounds like it was just a perfect storm of shitty circumstances: Happened at a bad time, in a part of the office that's underpopulated, not near the main aisle, etc.
Curious how that last paycheck is gonna work. Does she get paid overtime for the weekend?
Not if she doesn't sign her timesheet ☠️
Has anybody seen my stapler? It’s red.
I could set the building on fire...
The squirrels, they were married...
Notified her family? The ones that didn't look for her after 4 days?
Maybe she lived alone? I don't talk to my family every single day, sometimes not even for weeks 🤣
When they did it in workaholics it was funny 😐
That’s what stand-up meetings are for: to make sure nobody has died, and if they have, find them before decomposition starts.
I had a thought that people didn't want to report or say anything out of fear
Sounds like the first episode of HBO’s Industry. dude tries to outperform his peers and causes heart failure. It’s a great show.
