What would your thoughts be if this hit your work inbox?

Don't want to color others' reactions, so pausing my own comments for some time.

Immediate reaction: boilerplate "Let's do something! (so long as it doesn't cost us any money)". I can see the "4 days off a year" thing come crashing down in flames due to (1) people taking advantage of 4 days to go do things they want/need to do that are not remotely involved with social justice (2) "we are not paying you to take days off" (3) "damn it, where is everyone? we need them to cover this shift/work overtime/there's a crunch on!"

The only thing that makes me vaguely concerned is the mandatory Diversity'n'Inclusion training, and that's because of the "we'll teach you how to be snitches/use our fair and unbiased and certainly not a kangaroo court system to get your rivals in trouble!" bit about reporting. Otherwise there's nothing there that anyone who has worked in any workplace for longer than ten minutes can't get around with a mixture of "sure thing, boss!" and head-nodding along while tuning out listening to the Woke Lecture on Not Being A Racist.

A reasonable, non-doomer take? That's no fun!

Time to start slacking off and stealing office supplies, if you haven't already.

Looks like a terminal case, I'd be looking at job listings. Though first it would be interesting to test whether "social justice causes" includes Catholic Social Justice.

I'd be polishing up my CV. On the bright side at least they're honest enough to refer to it as "indoctrination".
