It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

i remember at one job that was really burning me out through frustration, i was able to negotiate a promotion that came with a 40% salary increase to do what i had already been doing.

i was way less frustrated when those checks started rolling in and felt far more bought-in.

of course, i am certain there's some upper limit on how they could pay me to do work that was frustrating in a dysfunctional organization... but i for one am willing to explore my capacity and find that limit! and when we do get to the point where i say, "more money in my pocket won't make me stay", then we can start looking at the pizza parties, awards/recognition, the team building exercises, the listening sessions, mission statements, and values-based organizational planning.
