They are basically cops. And the analogy holds on many level including that yes, some can genuinely be on your side and try to help you or fix the system from the inside, in a way, but it’s pretty much “luck based”, you have no foolproof way to tell one from the other.

The wise strategy is to be your own HR, study the contracts and the laws. If you go in blind trusting HR you can be lucky and have a good happy professiona life or get fucked.

Knowing also helps dramatically in undestanding where HR can realistically help, where it can harm and where it is going beyond expectations and is on your side.

Don’t expect them to put you above their own survival though…

0 effort and yet alive.

No. Once I went in the forest near my home when I was on the brick of failing my year of study in college (a big deal where I’m from it would set me back a year of life basically and in my circle would have been very hard especially to my parents).

As I grew older, for light stuff I’d gravitate toward videogames and for heavier stuff I’d just be stuck in bed doomscrolling.

It is not the only point when it comes to adopting technologies, when it comes to maximizing privacy, yes maximizing privacy is tautologically the only point.

America has lots of issues, no need to make things up.

I’ve never experienced it but the somewhat obvious trick is that it turns into a race to the bottom, where if you want to outperform your peers (or even meet the expectations of the company), the number of days off you freely decided to take turns into a KPI.

It’s why in Italy, for example, you can not refuse to go to holiday.

An App is basically a website. You just have a login with them as techhh@protonmail.com instead of techhh@gmail.com. Whatever data they have is tied to that, they will send you notification and stuff on your protonmail, you’d recover the password through that accont…

You can get Aurora store from f-droid. It grabs the apps from the play store.

Any other email. Google registration is not strictly about the email, it’s about registering with them. They also give you an email, but that’s not integral to, say, the strict necessities of Google Maps, it could just be a login and a password…

Because Google doesn’t allow that.

1. Forward university email to your protonmail account
2. PC and phone are not separated stuff, they are basically just different screen sizes. If you need some separation just make multiple protonmail accounts.
3. If you don’t feel like going through the pain of degoogling, yes, you would keep a gmail account just for basic android funtionality. that does NOT mean every app registration ever. Those are separated companies that allow you to register with google and you should not do that, register using email -> protonmail.
4. That’s… why I’m here.

Please don’t suck please don’t suck please don’t suck.

I don’t understand what you were trying to say.

You are letting yourself be exploited, look for a place that quickly notice your work culture and grand you a better pay / career.

Edit: how do I deal with it? I don’t really care what other do, thigs that don’t work are always on the higher ups, if my colleagues are having fun on the job, good for them!

No, no and… yes.
