I love how vegans and vegetarians have this 'holier then thou' attitude. Not like we don't need still a lot of land to grow our crops, but whatever.

What will be his next move? Bans using electricity? Orders every employee to live in a cave?

I hope he will write the holy book of Wework with 10, 20, maybe a 100 commandments.

I am excited to see the exodus from Wework. Maybe that can be a chapter in that holy book.

You might say this is a dupe.

While I actually agree with you in some respect, the hyperbole is not helping your cause. Unless you are just wanting echo chamber comments.

I think there are too many confounding factors here, but would be heavily interested in knowing if there are any results that are worth talking about from the company trying this. Health or productivity related. (And, obviously, positive or negative.)

I will 100% never work at this company now, neither would any of my friends (just asked).

What a weird way to shoot yourself in the foot talent-wise, lol. It's incredibly bizarre and controlling.

Raising livestock means using cropland to grow feed. It's hugely less efficient than growing plants for human consumption using the same resources.

If you eat meat, have you ever asked yourself why?

Sooo, your comment is kinda aggressive. Just saying.

I don’t doubt that there are many vegans / vegetarians with a holier than though attitude.

But as a vegetarian and ex- vegan, I have experienced more than enough lecturing on why my choice is dumb or wrong to last a lifetime, been the butt of more jokes to count (actually it’s mostly the same three jokes heard over and over), and seen many many people wear that look on their face of “how dare you threaten my sense of self that has existed unquestioned for decades and so now I will lash out at you so I don’t have to confront this scary place”.

And I as a rule do not pro-offer the info that I’m vegetarian and I never proselytize and I only explain my decision if someone asks multiple times and they agree to have more than a two min discussion on it and understand that I view it as my very personal decision.

Anyhow. This topic could def benefit from us all agreeing to approach it constructively.
