A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

When I was hired on for my current job my boss explained that they don't require any proof to use our "medical time." While vacation time should be put in with a bit of notice, medical time was ours to use whenever. Literally said, if you wake up after a stressful few days and just want to enjoy some fresh air, just put it on the shared calendar that you're using some medical time. It can be as little as 1hr, it doesn't matter.
(Small company in the US btw)
Yeah we called them personal days, s as long as nothing was due that day it was ok to use them for any reason.
Lol as long as nothing was due that day.
Company still comes first, technically!
I was working in web development and marketing back then, while you’re kinda right, and there were always “fires” (which were bullshit, because we mostly did clothing brand websites and tv show ads, not really important in the bigger scheme).
We did manage to keep them from launching sites or features on Fridays. So we had chances to take them more (but still not enough).
If you were happy that's the important thing, but yes, companies still have a long (ext x 1000) way to go across the board generally.
The work/life culture was better than my preceding professional jobs, but the middle management was terrible, with 3 coming and going in 2 years.
I became a consultant for one more year, and liked that more, but they ultimately got out of that business (Shopify and squarespace ultimately took that market around the same time).
