      Google workers arrested after nine-hour protest in cloud chief's office

      Google workers arrested after nine-hour protest in cloud chief's office

      Nine Google workers were arrested Tuesday after sit-in protests, including a nine-hour sit-in at Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian's office in Sunnyvale.

      Where did they think their salaries come from?

      Where were they when China killed all those Muslims or crushed Hong Kong?

          Google isn’t really in China. So that’s not where the salaries come from.

              True. I’m quite confused by what everyone wants me to think!

                I’d rather take the unemployment than work at google anyway. No way any position there could be rewarding.

                  They pay very well to software developers and it’s a big stepping stone to a successful career later on. And even if that isn’t good enough and you don’t want to work there, just leave. Don’t make some worthless “occupy Google” protest that achieves nothing and possibly fucks up your future career prospects.

                    I like working at Google. Good pay and a free datcha at Sotchi.

                      Do they need evil HR lawyers by any chance? Looks like they might!

                        Yes, but there’s a catch. If you beat the AI they will sue you.

                          No risks of that happening.

                              Me beating the AI? Yeah.

                              I’ll take a baseball bat to the server nodes though.

                                I agree, that was never going to actually solve anything, but you can’t collect unemployment if you quit! Or can you? I don’t actually know.
