I just love this kind of reasoning. Some people really think that it's okay if "it's not literally illegal for me to say this" is the best argument they can come up with.
They don't have the ability to conceptualize reality without a clear and distinct hierarchy:
Rules for Me
vs
Rules for Thee
... in other words, a large chunk of their brain is just actually stuck at narcissistic toddler level, who hasn't fully grasped that... other people are in fact people, like themself.
Woah Woah Woah now, you wouldn't want anyone to misidentify you as a socialist soya boy terrorist would you? Cause a real patriot doesn't complain and will refuse to take any bonus or time off. A real patriot pulls down their pants when their asked to bend over. /S
One of my bosses posted, "Teamwork makes the dream work."
I wanted to ask "Whose dream?", but I needed the job.
"Oh, we're all in this together, we're a TEAM! Yes, it's my dream, and I take far more personal profit out of this company than any of you, but we all work for the same goal! I mean, we all have bills to pay. Yes, my bill is the mortgage on my 8000 sq. ft. McMansion, and my ski boat, and your bill is food, and a car payment, but really, we're all the same here, just trying to get along in life. Right!?"
That's pretty fucked up. I always thought of "Teamwork makes the dream work" as something two people working together might say to each other once they finished a task more easily than they could have alone. A boss saying that to an employee is definitely saying "we (management) have a dream that you should turn into a reality for us".
Motivational posters are the worst. I've never worked at a place that had them that didn't have their head up their asses.
Want to motivate me? Give me good wages, lots of vacation and keep the shitheads out of the company. Current place puts a premium on culture fit, anyone can interview, if any single person is uncomfortable, they're a no-go. We've had some solid talent booted out the door because they couldn't stop from being as ass for a couple hours.
I feel like whoever scrawled on the picture in pen missed the joke? One of the items of things that don't require effort is literally effort. Another is doing extra. Surely it's a piss take?
I agree, even the less obvious ones as having a good attitude or being on times arent things that requires effort (like whoever scrawled on the picture scrawled).

How does one effort without effort?
By being effortless. >.>
MAYBE SHES BORN WITH IT, MAYBE ITS MAYEBLENE~
Maybe it's plasticine
It’s definitely maple beans.
Be neurotypical and be privileged enough to not have any (mental) health issues
This has got to be satire
I'm leaning towards satire or AI generated. Could be either.
Different versions of this were plastered all over high schools in my area when I attended a decade ago. Not satire unfortunately.
What does the writer think "extra" means?
What does the writer think "effort" means? What does the writer think anything means?
Not sure. Clearly there's no effort being dedicated towards rational thought
Management by ai would count
It is free speech -- the author probably

unpaid overtime probably
Things that don't require effort:
Not putting up passive aggressive signs in the office about how you wish your coworkers would do your work for you.
YOUR MOTHER DOES NOT WORK HERE JENOTHY WASH YOUR DAMN FORK
things that don't require effort:
The alternative (Effort prerequisite: Effort) is also dubious. Perhaps it's not a dichotomy.
whose effort we talking about because i just got handed a cup of tea. effortless.
This is ironic right? Because literally the word "Effort" is an item in the list. I think this is a woosh

Throw in remote work. No one needs to be in an office to do paperwork.

...and this is what happens when you write bullshit without effort.
Seriously, an LLM could have done a better job than whoever wrote this.
I was thinking that an LLM probably did write it.
I've seen this posted before, in fact so long ago that if it was an LLM it would have been GPT-1 at most.
I'm pretty sure this is human-flavoured stupidity, rather than LLM garbage.
But if you did all those thing, people would say that you're putting forth a good effort, soo....

At least "zero talent" makes more sense.
"doing extra" I wonder who is fooled by this sign
I'm so glad I don't work in an office environment any more
::: spoiler is this...
an effortpost?
(no) :::
Okay let’s fix this list:
I can’t think of anything.
Of course not, that would require effort! 😉
Or doesn’t even make an acronym
That’s just lazy

"Doing extra"!?
I have seen this exact list posted under the title "things that don't require talent" so it was probably a typo that got overlooked.
"If that's true you should be able to prove it by doing thrice as much of everything on the list you wrote with no issue."
Best I can do is 3x the attitude and body language.
It'll have to do.
🖕🍆🖕
they didn't specific good before attitude
Is this a ragebait?
