        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.

            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.

            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.

                      There are exceptions. My ex CEO and his nepo kids demanded ultrawides so they could more efficiently watch Fox News and get scammed by horny MILFS in their area that want to hook up NOW.

                          Agree with you but depends on where someone work. It's rare but some work are undeniably positive to the society.

                            The higher you go the closer you get to the people who actually controls the capital. The CEO can have a personal relationship with the board, people who do actual work are merely a number to the higher-ups.

                                  The CEO is usually on the board and a lot of the other board members will also be CEOs but yes

                                      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.

                                      My spouse and I work for a contractor that is having trouble hiring experienced people like us, so they have been hiring fresh grads outta school. There is a limited pool of experience here, so when management throws a fit one of us is overloaded or gets sick and can’t meet the budget or deadline, it ends with nothing because they can’t afford to lose us. We work on the power grid and it’s a relatively small pool of engineers doing the work we do.
                                      Also, I’m rocking two work laptops with a home setup of 4 monitors and an office setup of 3, but still feel pretty important!

                                        It's only about how important you're to shareholders. At 6 monitors, you'll become the ever important cyber security expert, who will get replaced by AI, except said AI will do a job so bad it'll sink the company.
