Not really a meme, I know, but I thought this was amazing and worth sharing and I didn’t know where else to share it on Lemmy.

Ursula LeGuin was an incredible person and, although she did live a long life, her death was still a huge loss.

    Mad respect. She has bigger balls than I do.

    A few months back my boss asked me if I wanted to join him and the CEO for coffee. Apparently the CEO was doing a thing to see how the lower level employees were feeling about things. It’s not exactly a small company either, few people at the company meet the CEO.

    I turned him down because I knew it would be too tempting to tell the man to his face that he is effectively a dictator, that the company should be employee owned, that they shouldn’t have the power to restrict where people work (90% of the staff can do their jobs remotely), etc.

    And saying that shit would have probably lost me my job.
