alt Hacker NewsIt's like when your boss calls an emergency meeting to go over the latest company-wide BU reorganization like it's absolute pandemonium but you're just sitting there thinking about how you get paid the same salary to perform the same job with the same colleagues under the direction of the same manager. The total destruction of our entire galaxy is just that but in space.

Perfect analogy! I've sat through about 5 restructures already and I swear they use musical chairs to decide who's doing what this time around, while having no impact on my life whatsoever.
I was in a startup that was acquired by a big tech company and it went about like that. They made us use Windows for email and "business stuff". I continued to do all my real work on a low-budget Frankenstein computer under my desk that I think I was supposed to relinquish but I wasn't going to say anything and no one asked.
