techrights-bot"It’s ironic that you baggers talk about how cr---y #ibm is and doesn’t innovate nor make good products, and then gloat how you sit at work and do nothing and don’t care about the company." https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1bfkVTnV#repliesJun 12 00:31
techrights-bot1 hour ago: "The good reorgs are where the old timers with no skills that complain on here get let go and make room for us blue collars who actually want to learn and innovate. But mostly it’s just moving the excel and PowerPoint masters to a new resting home to collect a measly paycheck until they retire." https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1bfkVoGC#repliesJun 12 00:32

techrights-bot#geminiProtocol mailing list slowing down a bit lately, but I think that's because there's not much less to actually discuss (same with WordPress lists circa 2007) as people further develop their software and capsules.

techrights-bot" #IBM needs Systems but prefers not to own it. They want to be out of the hardware business except for Z. They need those Z clients. I'm curious how this spinoff has affected sales other than established fortune 100 clients that are usually on z. I'm guessing p-series and i-series are outta luck." https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1biByoMH#repliesJun 12 12:35

Currently, I am just working for very good work life balance (2 hrs a week have to work). Rest 38 hrs, I am taking care of my family. When we had to go to office, I was having two laptops and using my personal laptop for earning extra money from IBM offices." https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1bfkVTnV#repliesJun 12 12:38

techrights-botWith deadline just 20 days ahead, "stay-in-the-uk" application for #eu citizens is STILL just in "BETA" and on the face of it people without a mobile phone CANNOT APPLY, not even by post!
