Arguments with dudes on the internet: LinkedIn/Facebook edition

I've been doing the internet antagonizing. I apologize. Not to the people I'm doing it to — they deserve it — but to the universe in general.Last week I got into two arguments with dudes on the internet. It's like a thing I do. These are always cantankerous dude bros, and they always get what they deserve. The argument is almost always the same.I have one question. I ask it every time. It brings their very bullish "I know everything about running a workplace" energy down to a full Porky Pig real fast.I also bring receipts. Because of course I do.Plus: I got mad about the Turning Point USA halftime show in a business group on the internet, which is exactly where that conversation belongs if you ask me.And in Small Talk, I answer a question from Nate in Provo, Utah, who doesn't trust compliments but believes every piece of criticism — and I explain why imposter syndrome might actually be the most arrogant thing you can carry around.Boop.TIMESTAMPS00:37 — I got into two arguments with dudes on the internet last week01:04 — It's almost always the same argument about remote work and micromanagement02:16 — The call center manager who had a lot to say02:45 — The one question I have for them03:57 — I worked at a call center.
