That feel when everyone is trying to be real professional because the big bosses are in the call, and that long pause when someone finishes talking.

That feel when you're the person in the conference call to just listen.

That feel when you're the main person talking asking all the questions and trying to remember everyone's name.

That feel when the main person is looking answers from you and you're trying to give good answers that don't sound half ass'ed.

That feel when everyone is joining and you can hear it in their voice that they don't want to be in the call. Lol

That feel when you realize you're working for a huge, sociopathic company that neither cares for nor respects your judgement or feelings. And neither do the people in the higher-ups of the company.

 

And then you want out.

Yup, the conference is just so they can laugh about you when the call is over. Lol "BAHAHAHA Did you here her silly little ideas?! She is out of her mind!"

I always picture them as a group of fat, middle-aged english gentlemen with white moustaches, top hats and monocles, jovially smoking pipes as they laugh heartily about that funny little wo/man down on the 14th floor, old chap!

 

I am so starting an indie company...

That is why I work for no one, expect for myself. Self-employed is the best thing ever. Manage your own time. :D

That feel when you don't have a job...

If you're going to look for a job. Please don't look for a job in the big companies. They don't give a crap about you. They treat you like crap.

^This. Unless you work for a Japanese corporation. Then they value you. Even the janitors are valued for the work they do.

If you have the knowledge and the money. Start your own business and gradually grow into a company.

And do everything in your power to keep it in the company's convictions to value and include everyone in your workforce  in company discussions, keep everyone in the loop. It's super-important to how people will view your business, and how people will feel about working for you.

Diffidently true. The more you are involved your employees the better relationship you'll have. If you treat your employees like crap, then they would leave.

Sounds like someone has been watching Better Off Ted.

 

Too bad they canceled that show.

Never heard of it :P

Just speaking from what I know of massive corporations. All that matters is the bottom line.

Oh, well then you need to watch Better Off Ted. It's a comedy show based on a giant sociopathic corporation.

 

The best one.
