I want to get into cybersecurity. I am willing to learn about it and do the job effectively. My dumbfuck cornfed manager said they want to make sure i have a “passion” for it. No, i will not think about cybersecurity day and night like i’m in love with it, you dumb fuck middle manager.
I would be passionate about Tech Infrastructure if I worked for a Soviet State providing cloud infrastructure pretty much at cost to worker coops.
This 100%.
Why the fuck should I be passionate about a job I ONLY do because it aligns with my skills and I AM ACTUALLY ONLY THERE FOR MONEY just like everyone else at work.
How interesting that there is never the pressure on bosses to accept less and give more for the sake of passion, despite them being paragons that we should all strive to emulate.
No one is angry at grocery stores for shirking its trusted duties in being the source of food for people, and just raising its prices because it can. No one complains about rent-seeking and anyone who does is called a dumb naive kid for not thinking that shareholder value is literally the most important thing in the universe.
No but you see, they’re more passionate about money than you. They’re sacrificing the risk of losing their passion(money) when their workers aren’t passionate about work
