I'd do this if the other punch to follow didn't appear to be 'justify the expenditure'.

Choosing to wait for the PIP instead, if $EMPLOYER goes this way. Tell me the work I'm not doing and how pieces of ~~flair~~, sorry, tokens might help. Or don't, I don't care.

Anecdotal, but appears to be common among other comments in the thread.

For companies doing this there is no 'justify the expenditure'. Employees are being praised for high expenditure, regardless of actual outcome.

Leadership see the problem as 'people resisting AI'. Embracing AI is seen as the solution, and token usage is seen as the measure of success.

		You're right; the justification is made by dancing. Meme moment... weird flex, but okay. I'm also hesitant to 'go for the gold' because it only means more B2B monopoly money, juiced stats, or expectation. Or, God forbid, become the resident Token Expert. That praise you mention is exactly what I don't want!
