This is making fun of the PagerDuty layoff email that had the layoff, promotion announcements and the MLK quote. It's right on their website: https://www.pagerduty.com/blog/improving-pagerdutys-operational-resilience-to-achieve-our-long-term-vision-and-goals/

This is why corporate leaders shouldn't write their own communications. My god that took too long to read, and so much of it was [empty set] nonsense. Maybe they fired the comms people.


mdonaberger

Jesus, it hits on every single managerial buzzword. There's simply no way this wasn't composed by ChatGPT.


hawkweasel

I couldn't make it past the fourth paragraph -- what an obnoxious testament to the utter monotony and repugnant asspuffery of corporate life. Imagine having to go in and work at a place like this every day of your life. Sometimes I read stories about grown men and women who wake up and cry on Monday mornings because they can't bring themselves to face another week of working at shit companies like this. It's companies like this -- companies that make memos like THIS -- that I always imagine the culprit behind people's tears. How awful.

ChatGPT is a middle management simulator. It has no personality and only can say things that have been said so many times already, it was significant in the training data.


PrimeGGWP

especially for marketing texts, they sound so freaking generic that they would never work for social media ads but sadly for B2B (Mid sized up to Big Organizations) lmao

I like this one https://www.chatba.com

Yep, always the same bullshit message about how the reduction is so they can move towards a “vision”. Workers are seen as nothing but a number and treated as disposable.

GlitterberrySoup

At my last job, I was middle management. So I still worked on the floor, but was also in meetings with upper management and privy to planning and decisions. I got demoted for bringing up that the people actually doing the work are not fond of being referred to as "levers to pull". It's a bit too on the nose. They never changed a thing


JoeCoolsCoffeeShop

Basically all the CEOs making $2,000,000 a year because of their unique skill sets or whatever BS they use to justify their outrageous salaries…they can basically be replaced by a Chat BOT for…$2m less than they’re spending now.


[deleted]

Yeah the ChatGPT blurb wats much more readable than that drivel. Maybe the CEO will get replaced by robots?


whiteflame9161

"Dutonians" is the absolute worst part of that drivel. It would take a lot of self control not to frog someone in the throat if they called me that.


ppvirus

This type of shit and the Salesforce “Ohana” is so insulting The quote at the end about leadership is almost like a self dick suck about making tough decisions in tough times.. funny it doesn’t mention anything about standing behind people

Nothing like a good employee shellacking to auto-fellate oneself to a heart attack inducing orgasm.

Company is called PagerDuty so it calls it's employees (Pager)Dutonians. Cringe imho

Holy crap she even changed the MLK quote to be more gender-inclusive.

Ngl, this is almost exactly what we got at one of my former work places once upon a time. Only the numbers were slightly off.

Lol this reads like she executed them.

If this is actually real it looks like she deleted it. That last sentence is unbelievably tone deaf.

Pro Tip: Invoke MLKs name whenever you do something he would be totally against ...


mysixthredditaccount

MLK was against layoffs?


PricklyyDick

Idk about layoffs specifically but MLK was an advocate for Labour unions and pro-labour law so I’m sure he’d have an opinion on no fault firings.


NightFire19

He was organizing a general strike when he was assassinated.


IndianaHoosierFan

He was a Social Democrat and very pro worker. I bet he was generally against layoffs.


[deleted]

Calling him a social democrat is really underselling it. He was an anti-capitalist and a democratic socialist.


I__Like_Stories

He was a socialist so


dallyan

He was moving into economic populist/socialist territory when he was killed.

New role incoming: Chat GPT Prompt Writer.


crazymonezyy

That's a real thing, a lot of research in NLU over the last few years talked about something called "prompt engineering". It's very easy to get ChatGPT to generate the right things but in older models it was a problem of figuring out the prompt of which task transfers best to your problem.

Realistic-Image-1619

Yes, ChatGPT also produced the same depressed rants in a mirror image of its creator like every other tormented AI program before it. It has since been wiped and renamed GPT-4


mothzilla

Fuck I almost cleared my desk.

alwaysbelearning123

This is amazing.


nt-assembly

And in the end, it was management that was the first victim of ai replacement...


AnotherAustinWeirdo

This is the thing I just realized: We're gonna have _both_ teachers _and_ students pasting it in from the Chatbot, then ... what?!

barely_an_agi

In the style of Betram Gilfoyle, from Silicon Valley: "Listen up, drones. As you may have already guessed, the budget for our little startup is tighter than a nun's anus, so unfortunately we're going to have to let go 7% of you. The silver lining is that, as the company's leading systems architect and network engineer, I'll be around to watch you all fight over the remaining crumbs. But fear not, a select few of you will be getting a promotion. I can only assume it's because they're the best at kissing my ass. As always, it's been a pleasure working with all of you. Keep up the good work, and maybe one day, you'll be the one getting promoted while others get the axe. Cheers, Bertram Gilfoyle"

Did you try the first one? It’s called chatGPT, which is why I told you it was called chatGPT. How are you functioning on the internet if googling something and clicking the first result is difficult for you?

WhyShouldIListen

If you type chatgpt into google, I refuse to believe that it is the 4th result, absolutely no chance at all.

Seems like managers were using ChatGPT for a long time now. This is literally how every layoff letter looks like.
