When I was a coop student in university we had to take a 'how to be a good employee' class before our first placement and they taught us 'employers like employees who are flexible' and then would shout that at us any time we tried to enforce a work-life boundary

Got my yearly review tomorrow. The last month has been going terrible, because I was put on a new project that's huge, complex and is not going to make its deadline. Hopefully I'm not just graded on that one month, instead of the other 11. e: posting on page 666 😈😈😈

I’m having an awesome year but the company is doing terribly because the whole industry is hosed at the moment, so there will be no decent performance bonuses to pay it off.

We have hit all of our projections for the year already which is nice, so hopefully the profit sharing is solid and sounds like it should be. Won't know until the end of December though.

Our FY doesn't close until end of January and they don't do yearly reviews until like May so I can cruise along during the holidays and make sure I land something impactful in early 2024.

History Comes Inside! posted:I’m having an awesome year but the company is doing terribly because the whole industry is hosed at the moment, so there will be no decent performance bonuses to pay it off. Same. I'm blowing out all my goals. But the company is looking to close with -20mil rev and -8/10 mil in profit over last year. So we all get a pity 2% increase. For comparison when we did record numbers during COVID we all got 5-6% raises and the owners dropped 4mil on a house. It's been great watching people lose their loving minds. Fun fact, one person and one account are responsible for almost 3.5 mill is additional costs because he ordered 20mil in product without a confirmation from the customer and it sat, for four months, in two new warehouses we had to emergency contract. Even then, the customer is still hedging on taking all this product and even if they do it's already so late in the year that the revenue won't hit until Q2. When there was a meeting about this in July the general vibe was that he was getting a slap on the wrist and we rest of us were somehow responsible for him going rogue and making this call with no input from anyone including the owners. Because, and I quote "I figured if this was an issue someone would have said something." Most of us only found out about this when we saw the factory had scheduled 250 shipping containers to transit in 6 weeks. For context we shipped in 320 containers during all of 2022. I'm just vibing

I'm taking a certification class and it's 8 hours in a classroom listening to a lecture, 5 min break per hour and a 45 min lunch break. The lecturer is dynamic but I know my aggressive notetaking is the key to staying awake. There are 40 of us and I don't see the other students taking notes. I don't know how they're staying awake. How are they staying awake???

President demanded we fix our chaotic file structure by end of year. We now have several meetings where the whole team is in just randomly deciding how we update our enormous file system. Lots of acronyms being made for standardized naming conventions on the fly by people from different departments during the meetings. Simultaneous action items of “make a list of naming conventions to be approved” and “everyone just pick a set of files and start renaming them”. A person who was not even in the meetings was tasked with deciding where all external-facing files go. That person has also been here less than 2 months. So far the prevailing method has been “just add YYYY-MM-DD to the front of every single file and then we’ll sort it out from there”. I’m sure this will fix all our issues.
