It seems the message of schizophrenic corporate America is, "don't bring your humanity to work". Because what is politics but an expression of how society should be. Even more ridiculous is this trust exercise, their idea is for employees to show their human side to improve employee-employee relationships for higher productivity, but wait, not too much of the human side!

No wonder all the CEOs are crazy about AI. All the intelligence, none of the human.

You indeed shouldn’t bring your humanity to work. You should bring what’s required to do the job. That’s the deal, you do the job and the employer pays you for it. Stopping making where you work the same as where you live.

Yes, this so-called trust exercise sounds more akin to a mutual blackmail pact.

At the same time they want to leverage all the "humanity" they can to get you to work more for less.

We're a family here, after all. You wouldn't leave your colleagues hanging, would you?

Meh, some people’s politics have very little to do with humanity and how society should be. In general, best approach is to avoid GRAPE topics in general.
