    I mean sure, that may just be an “innocent” poll and Uihlein might just be genuinely curious about what the percentages are, there is no way I would trust a conservative to not connect those survey answers to people.

    Shit, they wouldn’t even have to explicitly note down who answered what in the database where they count answers, since employees have to be logged in they can probably look at server & auth logs to deduce who voted for who

      My work sends out “anonymous” surveys about random stuff to get a feel for what’s working and what’s causing problems. If you don’t fill it out you get an email from HR reminding you that you haven’t filled out the “anonymous” survey.

        I mean it’s absolutely possible and pretty trivial to do in-house online surveys so that you know whether someone has answered but can’t immediately connect answers to individuals, especially if the survey didn’t use an in-house web service.

        Whether I’d trust a corporation that says some survey is anonymous is another matter entirely though, because I absolutely wouldn’t

    Ugh I keep forgetting Uline is run by fascists. The company i work for buys tons of shit from them. Not many other one-stop warehouse and packing suppliers that are as good as them sadly.

      Their coffee (which I wasn’t expecting that they make) is actually pretty decent, for a packing supply company lol

    It’s legal for private company owners to urge their employees to vote a certain way. It’s not legal for them to condition promotion or pay or continued employment on them voting that way. The Uhleins might be stepping beyond the line here. As soon as Garland wakes up from his nap, maybe he’ll find out.

    It’s shit like this that makes me never want to answer a poll ever, what’s the incentive especially when the questions may be coming from an antagonistic, powerful source?
