the startup i worked for got bought by a mega corp. They taught us devs how to use some intranet forms to order things we needed like keyboards and mice. These items would get approved or rejected by the engineering manager and it was pretty straightforward.
I put a request into the system for one of these (well one very similar, the Scorpion) thinking my boss would see the $50k request and jokingly refuse it.
What i did not know was that any request over a certain dollar amount triggered a review, by sending the request to my bosses boss. And over ANOTHER amount it did it again. I got a talking to but it was worth it to imagine the face on some VP seeing a dev try to order a $50k chair
I bet they were laughing too before pretending to be mad
yeah, i bet they were trying to think of ways to reject it for op but approve it for themselves
A bonus is you can invite your dental hygienist over and have your teeth cleaned while you work
chokes to death on coffee
Dies by monitor to face
At least he died doing what he loved. Being in a Teams call about interdepartmental efficiencies.
“Sorry, I didn’t see him”
I would just fall asleep

Most unsettling part here is toilet paper positioning (if not cat owner).
The toilet paper is loaded backwards
Excuse me, that’s the best way to load toilet paper. The best overall, however, is a bidet. Ascend, my child.
Is there a way on Lemmy to downvote and upvote at the same time?
The first part of your statement says you should up your meds, the second part is lucid though.
Lemmy needs to distinguish itself with character-level voting. Somebody made a great post but unironically used an interrobang? Hit 'em right in the analytics.
What did you just say about the interrobang‽
What’s an interrobang‽
Every time my ex would reload, she loaded it this way. Every time I found it this way, I would reverse it
I’m pretty sure this was a contributing factor in my parents divorce.
That would not stop a cat
So it would look like you are chest deep in a toilet. It’s the way I prefer it anyway.
none of these there’s not enough crying
ahaha I love how the only one getting shit everywhere is literally Drumpf. Accurate.
Cat owner… my stupid bois have found a way to empty the roll even when it’s placed like that. Nothing is safe.
if not cat owner
Bend the cardboard roll on the inside so it becomes oval-shaped. That way it doesn’t keep unrolling if they pull on it
As a cat owner, you’ll never catch my rolls in this blasphemous position. Kitty’s getting misted if he confuses hanging TP as a toy
The toilet paper is correctly installed
Doubles as a hospital baby delivery bed, so you can work through labor.
Oh America, what will you think up next?

all fun and games until thr back of the monitor falls off
Buddy I just did that today from my bed threw the laptop aside and slept 30 minutes more. Luckly I don’t use my cam for meetings.
looks like it would also be a hell of a standing desk. and on wheels?
I would say it in Stephen Hawking’s voice.
Can get a dental cleaning during meetings, awesome
Put a big hole in that incline and your proctologist can do their thing too!
Combining “company quarterly review” with “dental cleaning”, while time efficient, is a kind of sensory combo that’s right up there with “nuts and gum”. Sounds great until you think it through a bit.
Edit: I’ve actually done the latter by accident. 1/10 - “I don’t know what I expected.”
“nuts and gum”
together at last!
100% my S/O’s goals
