gollark: Being that excessively attached to it sounds bad, especially now.
gollark: Although I probably won't actually be *in* the workforce for... five years or so now, so who knows what it'll be like by then.
gollark: I would really prefer a company which actually does good, interesting stuff and contains sane people over one which makes me participate in stupid stuff because of "spiritual goodness".
gollark: You can cynically look at this as them trying to make employees develop emotional attachments to the company, too, to make them more exploitable or something.
gollark: I am NEVER working anywhere which randomly overritualizes stuff like this, probably, unless I just forget by the time I actually look for a job, which is likely.
