The only acceptable use of butter on a sandwich is on the outside for toasting purposes.

cynic posted:The UI is utter trash and things like not remembering sort orders in epics is incredibly annoying. Our company has absorbed so many other companies and we've just mashed all the jiras together and we have 6 different Todo statuses and about 250 different ticket fields including some in Polish. Before things like JIRA were around, I once had a conversation with my (insane) boss something like this: "We've got loads of bugs to deal with and you keep adding new features. We really, really need to use something like Bugzilla to keep track of things or a lot of stuff will be forgotten or never finished." "It's fine, don't worry. I've got everything we need written down on Post-Its." His office was in America and all the developers were in the UK. Everything was managed by him phoning us at random times of the day (I don't think he understood timezones) and yelling at us to drop everything and work on the new magical feature he'd dreamed up in a cocaine haze.

Bugzilla v Jira would be a great 80s monster movie. Today it's straight up horror

Outrail posted:The only acceptable use of butter on a sandwich is on the outside for toasting purposes. When we would go on an 8 hour road trip to visit my dad's family in Pennylvania, my grandma would make sandwiches for us to eat on the road on the day we left and for some reason, she always used butter instead of mayo or Miracle Whip. Ham, American cheese, white bread, and butter. I don't remember them ever being bad but every time they got pulled out of the cooler I remember the wave of... weirdness that would wash over me. Maybe it was also because I'd spend most of those car rides sleeping or thoroughly zoned out watching scenery while my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cassette gets progressively slower and deeper because I'd drained the batteries from near constant use, and suddenly this butter sandwich would get thrust into my face.

I grew up in Germany and butter is all people put on sandwiches*. I didn't see people using Mayo on a sandwich until I visited the US. *It's possible I was extremely sheltered but idk

If you're going to complain--again--that I don't spend enough of my time doing your job, why would you do it on a day where I have spent six hours processing invoices and doing deposit reconciliations, and you have spent six hours assembling a Valentine's tree1 to put in the window of your cubicle and complaining that you should get to go home because there aren't any customers? 1It's a little LED light-up tree that she covered in paper and foam hearts she bought at the dollar store.2 2She is aware that this isn't a thing, but is very insistent that it should be a thing.

I'm just going to write down here on your performance review that you don't contribute towards improving office morale and have difficulty getting along with your fellow employees.

Spiral continues at my workplace. Lead engineer quit and today is his last day. He offered to put in a good word for me at Los Alamos National Laboratory but my wife won't relocate and also eww New Mexico. The writing has never been more on the wall. Been talking to recruiters and sending out applications left and right. Might have a shot at a sweet place 10 minutes from home with a $25k raise, fingers crossed. $15 mil bridge funding that was supposed to materialize in September has yet to arrive. They're probably banking on a buyout at this point, but any investor that isn't the resigned CEO's golfing buddy is going to do their Due Diligence, at which point they'll realize that all we have are some pretty pictures, a publicity stunt small-scale prototype that doesn't work, and a few licensed NASA patents. Everyone is pretending its all fine and everything is according to plan.

National Labs are hiring because they lost a lot of people in the past two years and are continuing to do so lol. The lab I worked for gave me a 4% raise after last year's performance review. This made me mad and 2 months later I was out the door for a 53% raise in private industry. I know lots of senior colleagues did the same.

I guess the national labs are like most companies in that you gotta leave and come back a year or two later to make any real money.

IME, the pay is always below private industry unless you are very good at bringing in funding

What else is margarine for, if not spreading on bread? I wouldn't bake or fry with it, but it does work well on bread underneath something dry, like sliced sausage or cheese.

I thought margarine was developed almost solely to replace butter as a sandwich spread.

Mayonnaise as a sandwich spread is uniquely American I think It’s also loving gross, why would you want mayo on every sandwich

History Comes Inside! posted:Mayonnaise as a sandwich spread is uniquely American I think It's salty and fatty but spreads more easily than butter? It also has acidic notes and makes a good accompaniment to many meats and veggies. Butter is missing the tanginess. They both have their users.

You can put mayonnaise in a sandwich as an ingredient, sure. Ham and cheese with a little mayo, banging. But you don’t spread it on the bread like some kind of animal.Barudak posted:It is not, and Japan loves mayonnaise on sandwiches like you wouldn't believe. I had a burger in Tokyo somewhere that was 50% mayo by volume, I could believe it.

I may have seen The Whole Nine Yards a few too many times to immediately think of Bruce Willis’ character in that movie. Someone involved with creating that movie had a thing against mayo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYzOFfl2c-M

Yeah, but Japanese mayo is different from US mayo. They use only egg yolks and blended vinegar, while US mayo uses whole eggs and white vinegar.

The last mayo derail in the Anti food porn thread earned the whole thread a mod challenge of making mayo. That was an A+ derail.

I helped with a security audit for a client today, and I pointed out the big red flags that client’s CEO had neither MFA enabled nor had changed his password since 2014. “He’s too smart to get hacked.” What about all those breaches where someone may have gotten his information without his knowledge? “TOO. SMART.” I am recommending we drop this client as a liability.
