  1. The A1 form travel requirement is the most useless EU bureaucracy legislation/regulation ever:

    #EU #Europe #MakeWork

  2. I’m looking at the paperwork and trying (and failing) to see ANY benefit whatsoever, and as a professional administrator in another context, I’m calling bullshit on this process

    There's a similar story. A man sees a local parks crew truck at the park, and watches as two workers slowly progress down the park. The first one digs a hole, and then moves on. The second then fills the hole in and follows the first.

    After watching this for a while, his curiosity is killing him. He stops the workers and asks, "Why are you digging and filling in holes like this?"

    The workers reply, "The guy who puts the tree in the hole is sick today."

  4. Yes, citizens, if you give our corporate partners even more money, we will allow you to also give us (and them)even more of your personal data.

    As someone who was old enough to watch the creation of the #conservative #feelgood #makework program that is #TSA, shit like this just makes me even more cynical.

  5. We admit its not all good, never supporting #QRCode #surveillance nor coercive #medicalExperimentation, but #COVID has has had big benefits in terms of doing (more) with less.

    Less #travel, less time at the office, less #waste, less #uselessUniversityDegrees, less #overdevelopment (lost early unfortunately), less commitments, less extreme migration (aka #humanTrafficking) to #Australia, less #makeWork by the #managerialClass — these are all things the 99% wanted and got…

    …do we just lose them?

  6. What if you cannot tell the difference between a robot and a human while they are wearing a mask?

  7. Why do they want us to work for clients that we will never see?

    Oh yeah, the other thing that is rotten about #stockMarkets is they are very #growthy.

    Always needs more #moneyPrinting and thus debt injected into it. To keep #pensionFunds happy.

    Its a virus that is kills orders of magnitude more #biomass than #COVID19.

    That's indeed what some say.

    The 'they' you mentioned, the countries that were able to reduce extraction - they are worth understanding. Just because some oil is there doesn't necessarily mean we can have extreme growth in consumption like before.

    Also #fracking is an #environmentalDisaster that doesn't tend to make any economic sense either. It's #makeWork/#fakeWork.
