I don't know what social media trend caused the turnaround, but I recall nothing but hate and derision for furries by the general internet in the past because of everything you just listed.
At some point it's become "you're just hateful because you're disturbed by their fetish."
My sincere hope you're healing and in a better place now.

Right, but having the same name isn’t super confusing or anything.

Wife and I were discussing this story this morning. At first I thought "Meh, no surprise it's a convention for a niche audience, they sell out quickly."
No, no. It's almost 8,000 rooms that sold out. There are a total of 24,000 hotel rooms in the Greater Pittsburgh area, according to a Trib story referencing "Smith Travel" as its source.
That means about 1/3 of ALL hotel rooms in Pittsburgh were sold out in less than 24 hours. That's crazy.

Like the technology does exist, but no restaurant is going to spend that kind of money for installation and monitoring.

You really think I'd put my primary listening device in a light bulb? I'm not insane. That's what salt shakers are for....

You want to get rid of people who are asking to make $13 an hour to replace it with a custom app that needs to be scalable to allow for 30,000+ simultaneous connections, as well as either renting or purchasing and maintaining all the infrastructure that goes along with that.
You are talking about firing ushers and hiring software engineers to replace them.

The people saying just get rid of the ushers are the same people that bitch when no one is around to help them in the walmart aisles.

It's actually a lot of fun. It's a great place for networking or just vibing out honestly.

I am pissed. My job does not require me to be in the office three times a week. I am thrilled to be leaving the company in August.

Meanwhile, the lowest paid workers in our economy have to commute to work every day! What a shock!

It really was kind of basic. I went once, maybe 2018. Didn't see any reason to return.

Maybe it could be spun as causing too much administrative overhead to process a 401k match every pay period. Except... it's a bank. The literal business is processing financial transactions.
If the Simpsons was any good still, they would write this into a story for Mr. Burns.
BTW - I don't want it to seem like I've been saving this stuff up or am some kind of /r/antiwork radical. My nephew is in his early 20s and just starting his career in the same field as me and has been asking for advice. He just wrapped up his 3rd interview with BNY. I knew they had a bad rep (from current co-workers who came from BNY) but dug these articles up for him last week as citations for trying to steer him clear. I think he's going to take the position - but my advice is "don't stop looking for greener pastures" while working there.
