WHAT IS A MAN? A MISERABLE LITTLE PILE OF SECRETS! BUT ENOUGH TALK - HAVE AT YOU!

Hey, we have good taste!
Technically our sun isn't big enough to explode. It will expand though!
Definitely no arguments there!
I think a lot of middle managers get a small taste of power, and at that point take on the "corporate drone" personality, and start parroting the corporate agenda as well as wanting to directly micromanage their employees (can't do that if they're not there.)
"Stakeholders this, we're here to make the company money that, yada yada yada"
The thing is that the reason corporate wants people back to the office is that these companies have put so much money into these office buildings, and if they don't get their workers back to the office, then that equals a loss! Can't have that! They can't sell the buildings off either since the housing/commercial building market is trashed right now, so again they'd be taking a huge loss.
So even with all of the benefits of WFH to people's work/life balance, mental wellbeing, and productivity, the company is losing some X amount of money, and that's what they really care about.
I do not WFH and unabashedly eat breakfast at my desk every single day lol.
Not a single person has said a word to me, and my direct supervisor and their supervisor have both seen me doing it. Not a word.
My philosophy has always been - and I've told the employees who work under me many times - as long as you complete the tasks assigned to you, and are performing the role that you were hired for, I don't particularly care what you're doing in the interim (as long as it's not something that is explicitly against the Code of Conduct). Giving people a little breathing room, and, ya know, treating them like human beings instead of soulless automatons, goes a long way. My team is generally more productive, and is nearly always the front runner for task resolution times compared to the other offices.
I just got my automated pirating machine set up!
Here's the wiki for the *arr apps!
- Radarr for movies
- Sonarr for TV shows
- Prowlarr for index management
- Optional Doplarr Discord Bot for requests
Set up your profiles for Radarr/Sonarr to pick the quality of release you want (1080p, min/max file size, etc)
Feed Radarr/Sonarr your qbittorrent info, nzbget & Usenet info
They will automatically search the indexes (I use 1337x for torrents & nzbgeek for Usenet) for the files that fit your parameters, download it, and organize it.
All you have to do is point Plex at the output folders and BAM, automated pirating.
I even took it a step further and set up Doplarr - a Discord bot that handles requests. Now friends/family can ping the bot with their movie/show requests and it'll sync up to Radarr/Sonarr and add their requests!
OH SHIT, GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE!
But what about THE LINE!
