"Hey, I've scheduled a meeting to discuss your recent loss of productivity" is less anxiety inducing than "Hey, we gotta talk".
Because we gotta talk is usually used for a small problem however the corporate speak could mean ”your productivity is down by 2%” or “YOU’RE FIRED!!!!!”
@@Funkyfresh68that would be the opposite
@@minaashido518 damn
It’s enormously less anxiety inducing. I have soooo much anxiety from randomly being called by my manager even though so far at my new job it’s only been to discuss what tasks I’ll do that someone else isn’t going to be available for.
@@Funkyfresh68Corporate speak… “we need to talk” is effectively “this is your final warning.”

Yes
Okay, that Ella Willis post spoke to me in so many ways. I have had those feelings at work many times before, and, as an Autistic person as well, I can vouch that these are emotions we go through with the unknown. Like, will I still have a job? Did I do something wrong? Workplaces absolutely need to be open about what a meeting is about beforehand.
As an autistic with ADHD, I also agree with all the points by Ella Willis @4:16 made, but they were missing a really important reason for supervisors/employers to be transparent regarding the context for a meeting: union/legal representation & preparation of evidence/information needed for meeting. Not only should supervisors/employers respect the necessary accommodations of their employees, but they should also respect their employees TIME & LABOR RIGHTS.
4:18 as some with social anxiety, I feel the same.
My boss once set up a meeting alone with me titled just "discussion". Nothing else. And my brain went into full panic mode, thinking I did smth wrong or that I might get even fired.
In the end I had to ask him the next time he showed up in my office, wtf that meeting is for. And it was just about what projects I am working on and about future projects.... Thats it.
I lost like 2 years of my life from pure stress that day
Seriously, it would take like five seconds of effort on their part to just give people a heads up to know what they wanted to talk about.
As an autistic, if i was is that situation, i would feel the same as her.
Yeah, I thought it was weird that that post was considered lunacy. If you're the one scheduling a meeting, *you know* what it is for. Tell the other person ffs. It's the same when you're in a relationship and your partner says "we need to talk later" but gives no context. It's just bad communication no matter how you look at it, neurodivergent or not.
As someone with Social Anxiety, Autism, and Relational Trauma, I'd've jumped out a window
5:07 was amazing simply because of how civil this was. This is how every interaction on twitter should be, man. My boi doing the internet lord’s work
I don't really get why the Ella Willis one was in here as they were just talking about their experiences and there's a lot more employers could do to reduce uncertainty and support Autistic people.
Seriously. Not everyone with autism is going to experience it to the same degree, and I hate when people who have it discredit others who have it because "it doesn't affect ME that way". Like, it doesn't take a lot of effort to add some context to what a meeting is about.
@@rabbitmassani3687exactly this like they were just sharing their experience
That's because a lot of cringe subculture online thrive off divergence, such as being autistic, gay, etc.
Yeah that left a bad BAD fucking taste in my mouth. Especially adhd and lgbt as well it feels like punching down. And the way Robin reacted almost seemed like he was uncomfortable with it being there too. dumb. I also really am turned off by the new overediting style. Havent seen this in a while... But if this channel is going to go the route of "people want accomodations? CRINGE" im taking off. Click and OneTopic exist anyway
2:12 doesn't even need auto tune
FOR REALLL
"The concept of a weekend is barely 100 years old" It has been a thing since the Bible or earlier to have a day without work in a week
10:40 it means "Breaks are also important in life."
"Today a 25$ kitkat taught me a life lesson."
25 Indian rupees is approx. 30 cents
@@shaducciyeah what kind of dollar would this be possible? HK$?
25 tk would work
@@shaduccidont mind me im going to india real quick
I lost braincells in the "give headphones to deaf people" because I am PRETTY SURE that not being able to appreciate the usefulness of a gift does, in fact, make it useless and stupid and what was that guy even on about...
At the very least he'd be giving them the inconvenience of passing the "gift" on to a hearing relative or friend to avoid throwing away a perfectly working piece of electronics. Imagine that conversation. "Hey bro, some creep saw me talking in sign language and gave me these headphones. I wanted to punch him but he could run faster than me. You want them or should I just see if I can return them at a store?
If I was deaf, and someone handed me something that requires you to have hearing to use, and they *knew* I was deaf, I'd have to fight so hard not to hit them.
8:10 Learnt is a word
"learnt /lûrnt/
verb
Simple past of learn.
Past participle of learn. "
More common in british english than american.
That means Americans use "learned" instead right?
I feel I've seen it written plenty of times, yet never thought it was weird, same with "learnt"
One side effect of learning English as a second language is not being able to notice those small details.
@@OctyabrAprelyaamericans use both, but learnt is more common in the south. My only source is "am American" tho, so grains of salt may be required
As an autistic person with bad anxiety, I think 4:11 is totally reasonable and valid. Something thats a small inconvenience for one person, could be a reason of a meltdown to another and it doesnt mean any of these experiences is more valid than the other. Ella handled it really well imo.
Ella's experience was completely normal, what she described was not symptoms of autism or anxiety but symptoms of being called to a meeting without knowing what it's for, almost everyone would react the same way.
It's not that deep
@@trolley01If you are relating to Ella and think that is normal, I got news for you buddy…
Yeah I wasn't really a fan that this was chosen for the Emkay video out of a sub called LinkedIn Lunatics. Whose picking the materials for the hosts to read recently? There've been several posts shown in the videos recently that have kind of surprised me with how meanspirited they were, even if the hosts didn't necessarily deliver them that way.
@@trolley01the levels of anxiety and stress it can cause aren't manageable is the thing, sometimes the experience isn't as unique to autism as its intensity
@@trolley01 who gon tell him
The inverted contrast on Robin's doorbell footage was pee-in-pants level scary.
5:06 Ohhhh. That's why I like Robin more than any of the other narrators. His speech patterns are autistic, therefore I understand and relate.
5:07
Something as simple as what the planned topic is can be a game-changer!!
10:37 this says "breaks are very important in life" (life in break very important are) then on the next line "today a kitkat of 25 rupees (50 cents) taught me a life lesson" (today one 25 rupees 's kitkat taught me a life lesson)
8:55- should we tell them that the concept of a rest day existed for hundreds if not thousands of years by now? It's LITERALLY in the bible.
I like how someone watched a video about a fun little desk toy sterling engine and decided that will be a great generator.
There’s a reason we only see these in desk toys. They are not good. The desk toys have just enough power to turn but can’t do anything else.
I beg to disagree!
Although those are less efficient than Diesel engines (IIRC) they're an excellent option for submarines, since they're a lot less noisy and harder to pick by passive sonar.
I thought the Sterling engine was the funny engine that could operate underwater temporarily
LinkedIn is a scary realm…
Lol. Robin didn't notice Kelly's second LinkedIn description. 😂
Nope! That account was definitely not hacked! Too funny!
7:20 Firstly, blatant bull as how do they know so many deaf people? lmao And anyway this is the same as giving rollerblades to people in wheelchairs, insulting as hell, disrespectful, and I'd class it as harrassment...
"But not knowing is kinda how we all exist"
Robin, philosopher
I like how Robin is doing his own impromptu intros occasionally, even though they got rid of those. These are great!!
"Of course I peed my pants! You ain't cool unless you pee your pants."
"If peeing your pants is cool, consider me Miles Davis."
"Employers hire for drive, not skills." Yeah except they don't... you need 18 years of experience doing something-or-other that may or may not even be important to the job.
Independent of being autistic or ADHD, supervisors and managers will use "We gotta talk" in the same non-emotive tone for both "You're fired" as "We're giving you a raise". At least a little more context beyond "We gotta talk" is thus the minimum a good boss could provide.
Nothing combats climate change better than needlessly flying half way across the world to climb and pollute a mountain.
The mini intro with the narrators reminds me of the Fear Street openings, it would be fun though if they did that kind of opening for other videos too
The Chief Mom Officer @ 21:15 was actually pretty great :D Took a bad situation and turned it into a bit of fun. I hope she got the job she wanted when returning to work life.
Mansplaining is a derogatory term? Then don't do it and you won't hear it.
This is like people getting mad if you described your package getting roughly taken from the truck to your door as 'manhandled.' Yeah, that's the word we're using. Just don't do it.
Wait people actually use Linkinin unironically? I thought it was a joke. 🙀
Wait people watch LoK unironically? i thought it was a joke (seriously though who decided to make a stupid ass sequel instead of a 5 season 12 part series exploring the previous avatars)
@@voodoo8913 Legend of Korra ended up more popular than Avatar views wise so it seems like it was a good decision to me.
I need for even a chance at getting employed 😅
I use it unironically… to help keep track of all my jobs and who I met at them. Like a list that’s public and also more available to me at random.
lets hope the buyer of the forklift is forklift certified
Or that they employ someone who is
09:20 TIL nobody is ever required to schedule anything outside of work.
6:22 This guy never heard of a historic district until moving to one, lol. His brain would break at the 350+ year old tree and the 200+ year old building I grew up across the road from in the US. Heck his brain would probably break at any of the indigenous artwork in Australia.
Edit: Wait he’s acknowledging that keeping old things can be good. Okay. He still clearly never heard of historical districts.
Yeah that dudes been smoking crack, we have lost of heritage listed buildings in Australia, even tho we only became a nation in 1901 our oldest building still standing is from 1793 and there are lots of aboriginal heritage areas
In our shop “hey can you come have a chat with me in private? It’s not bad” is said often lol
If you ever want to insult someone's writing tell them they have the literacy/speaking skills of Beaker.

@@AIHumanEquality was wondering why you capitalized the B
what ive learn, and what some deaf people said: Deaf people can enjoy music, but they experience it differently than hearing people. All sound is vibration, so the deaf and hard of hearing take in music by feeling it. I think headphones would help with that.
though the info I got may have changed
So i hear a lot of posts from autistic people and I’m concerned how often i 100% relate to things i thought were normal but apparently arent, makes me wonder
Autistic people are normal. First thing you need to do is stop seeing autism as abnormal.
@@AIHumanEqualityThey probably just mean universal, language is hard
@@AIHumanEqualitywell its not that they most likely just mean not normal to nurotypical standards
As a diagnosed autistic person, I recommend getting yourself evaluated. You might have it, you might not, but it'd always good to check anyway
@@fruitystarstar949If that's an option. Not everyone can do that for financial reasons, or they're in a place with poor access to services. The alternative is to try to use strategies that work for us to see if they help. Having something is better than nothing.
I'm starting to think that older folks just shouldn't be allowed to use social media. They don't know how to use it.
11:27 Ahh gross, the prick went to the same school as me!! 😫😫
Oh you poor thing, 28 days to get hired is nothing in tech, I'm already well past that for a job that's all but guaranteed mine.
14:17 So this is kinda true though - you NEED to expirience small doses of stress to learn how to cope with it, which allows you to develop ability to deal with bigger and bigger stressful situations.
You typically do it as a CHILD while growin up though. Most average people don't need to do this as an adult.
People in job like fire-fighting or rescue are actually thaught that, sure, because they deal with constant stress of life-death situations. If you need the same level preparation for your office job, there is something wrong with it.
For the person with autism, I think that's a normal reaction to being called into a meeting from a higher up. Just overall anxiety of what it could be and if you're fired or not. Don't think its limited to autism.
Anxiety and fear of being fired is normal, yeah. I think they were referring to an overwhelming and uncontrollable reaction/meltdown. For example, I got called into a meeting once to be spoken to and was never told what it was about. Going to the meeting wasn't just nervous. By the time I got to the office, I had sweat stains under my arms because of how heavy I was sweating. My heart was pounding so hard that I could physically feel it in my chest, I had a cold sweat all over my body that dripped off my nose and I started shaking viciously. It was embarrassing and I did everything I could to try and calm down and be a grown up, but I wasn't really having any luck. I tried to talk to the manager about how now wasn't a good time for me to have a meeting, but they forced me into the room and shut the door and began bombarding me with things I'd never been spoken to about before, then threatened my job about it. I remember the whole room tilting to the side and then I was hyperventilating and trying to get her to understand that now wasn't a good time to continue this, but instead she just started openly mocking me for what was happening to me and told me she wouldn't feel sympathy for "someone like me". She was also angry that I didn't have immediate answers to any of the problems in the meeting that I had no information about before. And that was held against me in my work performance.
I feel like the post was more referring to situations where the lack of context directly affects their emotional regulation, and how it takes five seconds and very little effort to just, add a line of context to the meeting.
@@rabbitmassani3687yes, this, thank you!
I had so many meetings at my last job that I had no idea what I did to get dragged into the meeting. But when I was wanting to discuss concerns I had, I literally had to make it sound like life or death because any of my concerns weren’t taken that seriously. I got meetings about my attendance after I was off for a few weeks because of an accident outside of work. I got a meeting because I wasn’t playing nice with the rest of my team when I was mostly out of everyone’s way and I at most would be saying hey, maybe do this.
@@tf9241 yeah thats just employers in general and just treat everyone like that
while that is a fair point, I'm autistic and take anything like that far worse than my NT mother
all my life thinking i coulndt post art in linkedin because it felt unprofessional and just off in general, then seeing these things prove to me that it doesnt really mater what you post there
Instead of Headphones, use Earmuffs.... it'd be like giving the blind sunglasses, a visual representation that the deaf person can't hear you >.>
A few months ago my boss left the office, went to a conference room and called me on my cell saying we needed to talk. I had an anxiety attack from the lab to the conference room only to find out, Quarterly performance reviews were due and I was ahead of schedule...
0:50 According to my research, “DeFi” is just “decentralized finance” i.e. blockchain stuff. A “DAO” is a Decentralized Autonomous Organization. Basically, when crypto bros pool their coins together to try to start a business or create a product.
I've been doing IT for a living for 10 years, I'm not going to learn all the shortcuts. I'll just continue to use the ones I use daily. It'd take more time to learn the extra than it's worth.
bro really made a movie scene to start
The poetry felt for some weird reason like Stayed Gone from Hasbin Hotel.
I wonder if it would sound good to "Stayed Gone"s tune 🤔
The editor was on *point* with this one! (Also Robin, but Robin's always on point. Even if he needs a rant timer now and then. :p )
10:06 what the hell is going on here ?? Creepy
The start of the poem and beat goes unbelievably hard
Being an Alligator equals peak of existance.
Why is the Linkedin Park joke "incredibly fucking gross" I thought that was really funny
im glad you bought back the longer episodes
LOL "POW" team.
4:09 the mental whiplash from seeing anything related to undertale in an emkay video

Im glad we are getting cool little intros for new subreddits like this
I love the old school intro to the sub, was a nice surprise! As always good work Kenny!
Oh and Robbin too 😂
no no no hold on what is that random flash around 10:06
Idk looked like a human face tho
It’s at 10:07 and I cannot tell what it is either.
That guy around 15 minutes essentially saying that you should work 100% on comission if you're good enough instead of asking for a base for showing up seems exploitative. Sure, a good salesman might be able to survive on comission but when is the boss kicking in? Oh right, he wants free employees and takes 90% of the sale he didn't work for. Absolute scumbag move that makes US restaurant owners look almost like they are decent-ish people.
A Sterling engine generator? I mean you could use solar heat for it, as it only runs on a thermal differential... only thing is it'll have to be massive because they generate next to nothing in torque
7:17 deserves to be in the dictionary and on Wikipedia as the finest and singularly most annoying example of the Dunning-Kruger effect you can ever personally experience.
14:10 This dude is not only wrong, but what he's saying is the complete opposite of reality. The more stress someone deals with in their life, the harder it is to deal with further stress. It has a cumulative effect that changes brain chemistry and physiology. Chronic stress causes anxiety, as well as physical health problems. Often people that have breakdowns at small stressors have multiple major stressors in their life and the small thing is just the straw breaking the camel's back.
If this dude has no issue responding to small stressors like a flat tire without being bothered at all, it's because he doesn't have real problems or deal with any sort of real adversity. Which means he's not resilient, he's privileged, mediocre, and boring.
This tracks very well with my experience.
There's also the consideration of what individual people do and don't consider stressful. For some people, a new project at work could be stressful, for others it could be a welcome change of pace. I find that often people can't relate to those who are stressed by things they aren't.
I was with you until the very last part. That's literally not how it works, and I believe @hmnhntr there highlighted it perfectly. _Everything_ can be a real issue to someone and something else quite literally doesn't have to be an issue at all to somebody else. The kind of mindset you show in that last part makes me worry that you might be kinda ignorant to others possibly not perceiving things in life same way as you do - Which is not only negative to yourself and others but also not healthy, if it is the case. Before saying anything else though, I do wanna say this also: I do acknowledge that different levels of issues in life exist, and for example a flat tire is not the same kind of issue and not as serious as say, struggling to get money for living and having something to eat at your table every day, both of these issues are still very much real issues and people _can_ and _will_ react to them differently. You can not expect everyone to be the same and tell others that "they don't have real problems". They are indeed resilient because things that would surely stress or at the very least upset most people do not affect him - He is likely to be thinking about things not in the heat of the moment but calmly and logically during particular moments others might find stressful that he does not. And no, it doesn't make him "privileged", "mediocre" OR "boring".
@@LugiDergX The last part was nothing more than a jab at that guy for being a dick. You read way, WAY too much into it, my dude.
@@KattoTangIn that case, we got an simple misunderstanding. Guess you are right. Sorry.
14:28 I think what the guy meant was that we can in fact (somewhat at least-) control our stress responses to things; you can control how stressed out you get about stuff if you really work on it.
20:07 more like "prisoner of WORK" am I right aayyyyy
That intro clip was gold.
9:15 *Looking pointed at the biblical sabbath* You sure about that buddy?
20:15 his face says it all 😭
One night out I was a little bit drunk and peeing against a wall when I started to fall backwards, I ended up on my back receiving a refreshing shower 😂
I love how no one is talking about 10:06
I feel like the "Please do not ask the reason I was let go" is an attempt to hide the fact that the dude was fired for sexual harassment of a co-worker...
all they had to do was come out and say kate was going through some health issues and people wouldve dropped it, however, they decided to put out a poorly photoshopped and say "see? she's fine!" and ignite the situation
0:14 I could like MAYBE see that if they were doing an inspirational post about some physical disability they had or something, but that went into really weird territory instead lol
It's almost like those plenty of bullies who think being bullied builds character. No it doesn't. Sure it can and will make you grow. But it will also cause immense pain you could've avoided in the first place and learnt that lesson on your own. Unnecessary stress is even worse. Because if stress wasn't bad then why even bother diagnosing people with chronic stress disorders or anxiety disorders? As someone who has pretty bad anxiety rated to taking the train to some places in my city or outside because I'm autistic it's not fun. It's not nice to ocnsntantly wonder if you're on the right train or if your ticket is correct or if you're not missing your stop. Man using trains is fun! But being that stressed about the idea of getting yelled at for not being at the right place with your ticket is so tiering. Most people would kill to have a stress free life and live until they're 100. But no we got gray hairs at 25 wondering if we can even survive the next day.
I agree with the AuDHD post.
Yai, a video with Robin, one of my 2 faves from EmKay! Hope you're doing great! 💖
From experience at theme parks, the post from the Disney Event Manager is credible because they're not "the" event manager, but likely one which manages a single department of on-the-ground staff among many other departments at a single location. Manager is more of a rank of leadership instead of a title
2:13 linkedin doesnt need autotune
this MIGHT be Kanye West
I love the stay-at-home mom one
4:16 I have no idea how Ella ended up on LinkedInLunatics. She's objectively correct. /genuine
22:20 that is actually a really clever way to put it
I like how the thumbnail is basically just a survive the internet response
i'm not on the spectrum, but i have other neuro disabilities. i relate HARD to that post... f ppl that do that
So I made a LinkdIn account just to look up this post 20:30 and Conrad, and considering he isn't listed anywhere as part of the POW (Protect our Winters) Board Members, not on his profile or on the POW list.
I'm gonna assume he no longer works there, probably because he quit after what the fuck the BS that Erin pulled.
22:24 "No one wants to work"

21:03 Solid gold post.
I know you're going through a desperate time, but NFT's are never the answer.
I bet the headphones giving guy probably gets most of the headphones back from these people not accepting the gift as it is mostly useless to them (remember not all deaf people are fully deaf. Some can be partially deaf). And I bet this guy gets angry when someone in the vicinity wants them too and the deaf guy gives them to them. Like: "You're supposed to give them back so I can give them to another deaf person!"
10:10 what was that flash??? Why was that there???
fight club reference
10:06 is where the flash is for me
