Screen size & your importance
-
Executives are the ones that could easily be replaced by AI.
-
Its almost as if the more real work you do, the less you matter.
I wonder what would happen if the higher up in a company you get, the less you got payed. I'd imagine more actual work would be accomplished.
But then people would lose their incentive to improve themselves!

All I've got is the tablet and the phone for work. Gosh either I'm an executive or not all workplaces and job types are alike.

I have 3 monitors, what am I?
A two-monitor person who works so hard, they're willing to give you three to make you happier.
A four-monitor person has access to inventory/procurement (it)
-
A few well placed commands by a few lowly 2 monitor types are always the kind of things that derail companies on a fundamental level.
What senior management always forget is that they need us vastly more than we need them...
If all the two-monitor people get up and walk out, the company stops.
You can lose any other single rung there and still push on.

I must be some sub Spartacus worker. I have three monitors on my desk and two on the management network workstation behind me.
it's a bell curve, at some point you have access to procurement

True for the phone and tablet, but for any sort of computer that is not true
I work on a laptop with virtual desktops and I am much more productive that way than with a big screen... Or two big screens.
Everything is in the center of my field of view, I know which VD of my 3x3 grid holds what. It's much more efficient for me than bigger screens could ever be. And that is not for lack of trying!
It just depends on the person.
You just changed how I think about virtual screens. I feel like Khan being unloaded on by Kirk.
I decided long ago that I liked the single monitor with multiple desktops. But in my head they have always been a line of desktops instead of a grid.
Somewhere there is a mathematician who uses a hyper cube array of desktops…

Nah, actually, in a typical company the lower down the ranks you are the less likely you are to be fired, statistically speaking (to a point, of course you're more likely to be fired while on probation or something).
This is true. CEOs generally last very short before they're fired. Any normal person would be set for life by their compensation package, though.

4 monitors & 2 compiters at my last job; 1 computer and 3 monitors at this job...
movin' on up... -
I can verify that this is correct.

When I discovered it can be arranged in a grid, it made VDs so much more useful.
Cause a line of the same amount of VDs (9)... Ugh, not fun haha
Even though you can map each to a shortcut, it's still tougher to use than a grid with directional shortcuts!

Shit, I've got 4.

Depends how lucky you are. There is a guy who works in upper management and he has the privilege to order new equipment for his office, which is all expenses paid by the company. He built a gaming computer complete with neon lights and four monitors right in his office.
"Honey, I will be late from work! I will be back at 3am!"

Middle management screens are used by everyone.

It saddens me the fact that there are people out there wanting to do more work.
The game is rigged. Do nothing and get paid.

I wouldn't be in the field if I didn't enjoy the work.
However I've positioned myself to make sure no work is ever unpaid, unless it's for my own future startup idea.

I have one monitor but it's really wide. What did that make me?
