Nice try fbi
1-800-got-junk? doesn’t care at all about its environmental impact. No sorting what so ever happens to what goes on their trucks it all goes to landfills. All the ads will say they recycle and that they repurpose old furniture but I was threatened with being fired when I recommended donating antiques instead of dumping a load of furniture.
More jobs and more profits comes before anything else in that company, including employee health and safety. Several times I was told to enter spaces we werent trained for (attics and crawl spaces) and carry waste I legally couldn’t transport (human/organic wastes and the laws states the driver is fined, not the company). One guy injured his shoulder during an attic job and was told to finish the shift or lose his job. Absoulte scum of a company with very sleazy management and possibly the labour board in their pocket as they kept “losing the files” when I tried to file a report with buddy’s shoulder (he was hesistant to report for fear of losing his job).
That I made their DropBox account, and they can’t access it anymore…
At Google lax, the exec assistant of Dustin Jackson has herpes and has given it to a mess of people. Well done Nicole!
Just remembered another one:
Have you ever had an anonymous survey sent to you by your work or by a company your work has hired? They’re not anonymous. Management knows what your opinions are and will use them against you.
I worked for a consultant that would try and help fix businesses. The worst example I can think of was when I saw one person had answered a survey question saying that their employer had a “blame culture”. Rather than trying to work on the processes or address why something had gone wrong, staff would start pointing fingers to keep out of trouble. This didn’t fix anything and only made people spend all the time covering their posteriors.
The manager called a general meeting of everyone at that site and then singled out the employee who’d mentioned the blame culture, blaming him for saying there was a blame culture. The employee then pointed out that they’d been told, in writing, that the survey was anonymous. That employee called the manager a liar and then she lost control of the meeting, with lots of employees calling her a liar and several storming out. They weren’t in business the next year.
I worked for an MSP doing IT for an assortment of companies. Most of the companies were in the medical or legal fields. Every single computer they sold to their clients, used the exact same bitlocker key when booting the computer. If you’ve worked for one of the companies we supported, you knew the bitlocker key for all of them. Iat been the exact same bitlocker key for at least 10 years. This MSP also regularly puts out social media posts and emails saying how security focused they are etc, etc.
Back when I managed a Blockbuster Video, most stores ran at a loss thanks to theft.
The real reason most stores failed wasn’t because DVDs were going out. It was because we couldn’t stem the flow of money out the door thanks to thieves.
I worked with people from many indian IT companies who just outright clone github repos and tell clients they developed the entire thing from scratch.
The majority of tech startups are super chaotic and barely keeping things running. More than you would ever imagine.
My company is infested with cats. I think the CEO doesn’t know about it.

parting gifts weren’t actually gifts. nice ladder I’m still using after ~20 years
I worked for a certain media company that sold hardware / software in cars with memberships (typically through a deal with the OEMs). For those customers that have the hardware-only experience, a set of testing IDs can be applied that effectively give free membership and can’t really be revoked because of their wide-use in initial manufacturing provisioning. There have been multiple independent security reviews pointing this out, but not much can be done about it because of how the trial memberships are applied after manufacturing.
We didn’t investigate an online theft from any bank account unless it was over US $100k.
