My team leader now wants weekly reports that he gives to his boss who I’m guessing gives them to AI to digest. It feels like we’re all just putting on a sock puppet show and pretending it’s real.
Was it ever real? I think AI is just exposing how nonsense it all has been for the past 40 to 70 years. This whole corporate culture mindset was built by people who used work to avoid their family and golfed or drank their way through lunch.
More than 5% of the people alive today got to work jobs in a time before weekly status reports, organizational key results, year end reviews and stacked ranking. There are even worse things from before those so going back isn’t the answer. We need to build a new work culture and we should not feel that what we have today is just how it is.
It’s even funnier now though because I’ve started including a summary section…“this week I saved the company and outperformed everyone else”…I should get a promotion soon 😭😭😭😭
And making their money off of the underpayed employees running the stores and factories on the bottom of the stack who actually create most of the value
