No he isn’t.
He is sorry. Sorry he got caught.
Whew. Thank goodness that passed
“I’m sorry the lower value human capital heard me call them that.”
Bank boss sorry after being called out for describing workers as lower value human capital
FTFY
Bank boss delivers opposing sentiments in fraudulent effort to increse personal wealth by increasing bank’s stock price.
FTFY
(You assume a person with no empathy can be sorry)
Bank PR Team Issues Statement Claiming Boss is Sorry. Boss’s Golf Game Uninterrupted.
Saying the quiet part out loud.
“Sorry I told you what I actually think”
“Sorry not sorry that it was recorded.” Why do they waste their time asking for forgiveness?
Luigi.
The Mario Bros of this world know that these rich fucks aren’t being sincere.
CEOs shouldn’t apologize for fireable offenses. They should just be fired.
Uh why would the board fire him for doing his job
Actually using that term was a slipup for sure, but you bet your ass finding ways to cut HR costs is part of his job description
Out of a cannon.
Into the sun
The biggest clue was when they started referring to us as a “resource”. We’re just another input on their spreadsheet.
Always have been. They’re just saying the quiet part out loud.
I used to work at a place that actually changed the name from Human Resources Dept. to Human Capital Dept. and none of the higher ups could figure out why that pissed everybody off.
Honestly, capital sounds better. Resources are something you comsume. Capital is something you invest with/in. People are just used to being called resources.
Honestly people being either a “resource” or “capital” still makes people sound like they’re vespene gas or something
Frankly “people team” is one I’ve been seeing and I think that’s disingenuous or condescending or something. I don’t know what I think it should be.
It should be “union steward.”
The only people here conflating economic value with human worth are the people who are outraged.
He meant “vulgar pagans”.
I love me some vulgar pagans. They’re the best kind of pagans.
Has he considered replacing saying things with eating shit and dying?
This skinsuit and whatever is inside it are the main reason countries are failing, we have robots without any capacity for humanity in positions to direct our lives, not just in banks, politics, healthcare, security and none of them care about us, we’re nothing to them, barely accepted as an annoyance that they have to pay.
He just described what other bank bosses think.
Wow. Members of the first estate keep letting slip publicly who they really are and how they really feel.
Eventually, the third estate might get motivated to do something serious about it. Something terrible.
I don’t know about “terrible”. All possible actions I can think of sound “glorious” at worst.
I was making a French joke.
Typical CEO and then you wonder why societies fall apart.
Make the guillotine great again
hey! please remove this rust, it’s unsanitary, the cut could get infected!
Sorry, the rust removal costs extra.
