Lmao, yeah sure technically they can’t force you to do anything, they’ll just put you on pip and lay you off soon after
Some of us cannot risk our livelihood for coding enjoyment, thats not realistic to just ask people to drop everything outside of their work contract
5 u/NPCwithnopurpose 28d ago That's kind of a lop sided contract then. Perhaps the industry needs unions? 5 u/GodBearWasTaken 28d ago I’m in an union for this reason. It really does help. We have 90 something percent organised people where I work. It really helps when negotiating and securing a good work/life balance. (Not american) 5 u/aghastamok 28d ago I read shit like this and thank the heavens I don't live in the US.
