About two weeks ago I made a thread about being told to change my polish pepe avatar in company intranet to something else because someones fee fees were offended. I did change it to the following pic a day later, and yesterday I was told I'll be investigated by HR for breaching "code of conduct".
When my manager told me I laughed hard, but he seemd not too amused. The speople really think a cartoon frog is a sign of neo-nazism or some shit like that. This world has gone insane.

You should switch it to this. You're welcome.
Xavier Anderson
Pepe is a hate symbol. He's a Nazi frog.
Colton Reed
That's pretty hiliarious actually. At least the people that would be annoyed by this are not such faggots to run to HR right after they see something that hurts their fee fees.
It's a really sad state of society when somoene can't just come up to me or write me an email sayin "hey man, I find your avatar offensive, maybe you could take it down?", instead they run directly to HR. Hell, I would even consider taking it down if someone honsetly talked to me about their problem with it. But when they jump for the corporate hammer right away I naturally recoil.
Pepe is a meme, and can be used by anyone in any form for any purpose.
If someone made a version of Mona Lisa in which she wears a nazi uniform and started spamming that on twitter, would that make every version of Mona Lisa a hate symbol, including the original? That's some seriously slippery slope.

Except I'm not a racist, even though I am posting on Sup Forums. The fact that people are labeling others racists or nazis for jokes and memes really shows the state of our society.
I don't paricurally care about the job, I was going to leave within another few months, but it is pretty crazy.
The funniest thing is I'm working for Amazon. When you go to amazon.com you can easilly find pepe merchendise like shirts and shit.

What do your workmates think?

This is why you work for small companies without HR departments. HR is absolute cancer.
Jonathan Jenkins
They think it's insane, some laugh. I haven't met a single person that takes this seriously, except HR i guess.
Bentley Kelly
Whats the name of your company? we'll tell them you're a regular of the liberal totally not nazi not racist not alt right hugbox site Sup Forums's Sup Forums.
Colton Rivera
You are absolutely right. I'm doing this just to get a bit capital so I can start my own company.
Evan Clark
HR are the lowest form of animal filth ever existed. Those are people are good for nothing (they wouldn't be in HR otherwise) but still they hold so much power.
Gavin Howard
Leaving right after you gave them the middle finger for proving that you're a nazi isnt going to look good in your personal record.
Liam Smith
True, but I don't intend to work for others anymore, I'll have my own business once I go home(not irish).
Connor Johnson
Is this really worth losing your job over?
Josiah Lewis
Not really. I don't intend to opose them in the "investigation meeting", I'll say that I'd be happy to change the picture, and I just find it sad that people run directly to HR to complain instead to falking to me like a human being to a human being.
It was just my knee jerk reaction to corporate power pushing on me to use the trump picture.
David Bailey
I don't disagree...
Jayden Hughes
Amazon is a CIA operation, so it's pretty obviois why (((they)))'d be triggered by pepe on their intranet, kek!
