ETMOOC2 Session 1 Ponderings - Part III (the outtakes)

Me in AI generated Star Trek themed image
Me again, anime-style AI (or at least what
nightCafe thinks I look like in this setting)
Alright, so here's my final post on session one of #etmooc2.  You can find post 1 and post 2 on this blog. For this post, I thought I'd post some prompts and responses from my playing with ChatGPT.  Fair warning, I tried to write a profanity-laden email (it sounds badly written IMO, but still has lots of profanities). I tried to channel the r/antiwork subreddit. I guess a content warning is appropriate.

Here are some more ChatGPT prompting...about me. I have underlined all of the information I think is wrong This can be wrong either to a small extent - i.e., it's exaggerated; or to a large extent - i.e., it's factually wrong.

⚠️🚫🚨 profanity ahead!⚠️🚫🚨 

Prompt: 

Can you please write this in a less angry and more professional voice. It's going to my manager: "Hey Mike!  You know, you're just one increadibly dull fuckwit who has absolutely no idea how to do his job, you don't give a fuck about your employees, and you're just looking our for yourself you selfish prick!  In all seriously, I wonder how this restaurant hasn't been shut down by the health department; because if we treated the customers like you treat your employees, the food would be a shitty health hazard!  So as to retain what little I have of my mental and physical health, I say fuck you to you, fuck your "mandatory overtime" that's not actually overtime because you pay us shit - which by the way is against employment laws. I QUIT."

Response:

Dear Mike,

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to discuss some concerns I have regarding my employment with the restaurant. I have been feeling increasingly frustrated with the lack of support and attention to employee needs, and I believe that some changes need to be made in order to create a positive work environment.

One area of concern for me has been the issue of mandatory overtime. I have noticed that this is a frequent occurrence, and I believe that it is important for us to follow employment laws regarding fair compensation for overtime work. Additionally, I have felt undervalued and underpaid for the work that I do.

I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss these issues with you further and work together to find solutions that benefit both the restaurant and its employees. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

Sincerely, [Your Name]

So...what are your observations of these outputs?
