Or use their staff instead of models for modelling clothes. Not nice to look at 87.3% of the time and putting the poor pouting models out of work.
Along similar lines - corporate cuteness, ‘come over and say hi’ or ‘say hello to our lovely cows’ etc etc. Innocent Smoothies pioneered this sort of guff. Leave me alone.
“we’re just a cute ickle business” there is no such thing, sorry
If a company says “we’re like a family” run as hard and as far away as you can. That’s code for we don’t pay shit.
It’s just feel-good kitsch at this point. “French Dispatch” was lovely as a tribute to the old-style New Yorker kind of magazines/reporting but there’s really nothing below the surface. It’s all style and comfort food in a way. Loved this parody from a few years back: Watch: ‘The Grand Sausage Pizza,’ A Porno In The Style Of Wes Anderson | IndieWire
I have worked for way too many businesses who used that term. It’s code for “we are going to exploit you in every way possible”, oh, and it will also be like you are in an abusive relationship.
I also hate it because it assumes everybody has a happy, healthy family background. “We’re like a family” - do you mean the Waltons or the Jordaches?
Reminds me of a food bank charity i volunteered for, about 10 years ago, when i was on my arse financially, couldn’t get a job & had no income at all, i was selling my record collection bit by bit to get by.
Most of the other volunteers were in the same boat as me or even worse, some being addicts or recovering addicts, real underclass.
Managament, who were all Uni educated & on a salary, expected the volunteers to work an 8 hr shift in a Warehouse & on the delivery van whilst just having a donated Pot Noodle or cheap packet of instant pasta for a quick lunch then back to work, whilst they sat in the warm offices passing around the luxury boxes of Chocolates that had been donated.
What really pissed me off is when they began moaning about the delivery guys having a quick lunch prepared by one of the cooks in a soup kitchen we delivered to, whilst we was out on our rounds, they were preparing to ban that happening & also cut down on the measly travel expensives they gave out, when i decided it was time i left there.
They’ve been in the news alot lately, involved with the Marcus Rashford campaign & they do do great work that they’ve been given a lot of praise for but there’s no doubt in my mind they exploited, vunerable, desperate people for free labour as well.
“Hello… are you on your lunch break?..”
Get. Fucked. 💁
You don’t have to be mad to work here…

This annoying little c**t and his shit Thickify plug-in that guarantees anything you add it to will be utterly unlistenable. Currently haunting me on YouTube
In da club was good at the time. The rest of it is pretty dire
Tories and those that vote for them. Apologies for the politics 
I listen to a landmark album Tresor 30 and it all got fully blown away by this:
