Snoo is so cringe
What is a snoo?
Snoo is the reddit mascot (lil alien with an antenna), and I guess reddit corporate refers to its employees as Snoos, which is so cringeworthy.
If my company referred to us as anything but βteam membersβ Iβd die on the spot.
"Team member" implies equality. I prefer the term "employee"
"Alienated from the means of production" doesn't really roll off the tongue
I get called BUM, for bargaining unit member. It is better than most alternatives.
I can't even imagine a company calling me a "Snoo". Imagine explaining that to your family or friends.
It's the name of the reddit alien logo. It's also the name they call the employees apparently.
