Got the thawed puree out of the walk-in today and got a bunch of cold water all over my front making sure it was secure from the bottom. That's brisk!

Should have seen that one coming. Lol. At least I got it all moved into the brewery before the dining room got filled up.

My entire task list has been deleted.
I can't get the motherfucking popups to stop, no matter what I do, whenever I so much as press [new email].

No, I like my hat, thanks.
Lol, the "block phone number" option in Teams does nothing except add "(blocked)" to the number that keeps calling me. Brilliant! How else would I know that I don't want to talk to this telemarketer? Thank you, Microsoft.

I have now sat through 20+ hours of corporate GIS "training" videos that have taught me zero practical information. They're all trying to sell me on the concept of GIS, but I want to learn how to actually use the drat software. It's like looking at the poster of what to do if someone is choking, but the poster just lists all the benefits of breathing. At least I'm doing this on company time.

How are telemarketers contacting you via Teams? Is Teams attached to your phone number?

I had like 4 people in my company call me in Teams yesterday out of the blue, 1 to yell at me at 9am, and another to dump an impossible amount of work on me

This job is dancing on my last nerve but I gotta try to last a year jfc

Do you need to stay a year? Actually curious.

Not for contractual reasons or anything. I'm coming off the back of 3 roles where I stayed less than a year at each (although 2 were at one company so add up to like 18 months in total)

I'm worried lurching from job to job will look bad. It took a hot minute to get this job so I don't wanna gently caress myself over entirely by quitting or making my CV look worse than it is

I have been chastised already and it's not even 10am, so I do have job apps open lol

I don't really have any useful advice but I totally get being 1000% done with that bullshit.

I need a job that doesn't involve people interaction whatsoever I guess.

it is probably not what you're trying to hear and it is still Monday night here and I been drinking but

I'm not overly concerned about what my resume looks like because I'm like 75% sure the future just gets worse forever, optimism is outdated. I mean, I gave two weeks ago my last job, will probably give two weeks at this one; society just doesn't change enough to prevent another mass extinction event. that writing is already on the wall. fuckin Reagan.

Escape From Noise

The two week notice thing is a pretty American thing AFAIK. Other countries have legally enforceable resignation notice periods and the like, the flip side being you can't be terminated for no reason.

that is terrorism and all applicable officials and employers should be executed. thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

also, two weeks is too long already. employees owe their employers only what they reckon that they do

I have been known to be kind of lovely. hopefully less lovely than Chewbecca's employer??

I'm gonna close this thread for a while I think since everything has kind of lost focus. Feel free to start another if you like.

Goons Are Gifts

Ok now I know this is a somewhat risky topic in a somewhat risky thread and pessimism and being mad about a job is not uncommon here, please try to focus on rather being supportive rather than destructive and remember that being kind and helpful to one another is a lot more fruitful than, intentionally or not, dragging people down along with you.

AP, I know what you mean and I understand the pain you express there, but it's not helpful or a good place for this. Work crew can be a downer, but it doesn't have to be and you don't have to provoke it either, please.

I think EFN did the right thing with closing this for now, I'm gonna keep it that way for a day or two longer and then we'll see if we can reopen and just chat about work stuff in a more chill way, if possible.
