Jumpsuit posted:Jesus Christ. I thought I was going to get actual work done today, but instead one of my staff members has decided, on her last day before going on parental leave, to flip her poo poo over not being allowed to take her work laptop on leave with her. Turns out she had a sneaky plan to delay her computer upgrade until her final week, got a brand new Macbook Pro from IT and was planning on taking it home with her for the next year, which would leave her replacement with no device. Sundae posted:As someone who has seen maternity leave layoffs and firings plenty of times now, I’m more amazed that she’d even risk the potential of being seen as “performing work duties” during her leave. This was my confusion, though if they're not in the US laws are generally different to what I'm expecting. It definitely feels weird to insist that you need a new laptop to do payroll and whatnot, and more so that you feel you need one when you're on leave and specifically NOT supposed to be doing work. I would be inclined to just let it go but the fact that it kind of dicks over another person is kind of a bigger issue.

Forget this pip silliness, I allowed a mom to pursue other career opportunities the week after she came back from baby leave. Right before mother's day. Massive layoffs, I was lucky I only had to lose one person that round. And I had all the numbers to back it up, she was by far the worst (before parental leave). Would have been massively unfair to cut anyone else. It sounds to me like jumpsuit has an equipment budget, and only gets a new computer per employee every year or two, and she was trying to leave the replacement headcount with the old very obsolete laptop, unable to do work. I'm sure she could have taken her old one home? Unless they have a policy against taking work machines away on long leave. Btw, the base model macbook pro is still $1600 (and goes up over 3K), I dunno why people are saying a couple hundred bucks? Y'all macbook fanboys have no idea how much they actually cost, do you?

Your posting can’t get any worse in absolute terms because I still post. What the gently caress is wrong with me (please don’t make this into a 5000 page megathread)

CancerCakes posted:I'm interviewing today, can someone give me some interview questions that might actually give the candidate an opportunity to show their value, other than the poo poo ones I got from hr. Please?! When was the last time you waterboarded someone on the executive board? At what time during the waterboarding did you realize that no intel of value was to be had? How did you dispose of the reorg?
