Car Hater posted:it's the second one that hurts the most Really. It's so sad when a place is more or less fine, so you get comfortable, start to care about how it's doing, get everything and everyone polished up and working well... then some external event tips the whole thing over and you're back hopping from shitfire to shitfire. Had that twice, once being once being an extremely unwise C-suite appointment when I was still in corp stuff, and once more recently being covid.

Sundae posted:Yeah that's probably accurate. I'm curious to find out what we didn't do (or what their contract-firm managers didn't do). Always a chance that we're hosed-once-removed and it's actually a dispute with their primary employer. I prefer "grandfucked" for stuff like this. It expresses the likely situation better.

SpartanIvy posted:I'm in a company wide management meeting and everyone's Teams icon is a headshot, most in business formal, and there's one guy who has a yin and yang icon where yin is on fire and yang is frozen. He is of course an IT engineer. Go all the way. Have a picture of the grim reaper with a pair of smoking desert eagles against a background of flames and some text that's too small and compressed to properly read.

My teams av was a broken image symbol for a long while, which amused until it didn't. Now it's just a bland coloured square.

Democratic Pirate posted:A coworker had someone send an email at 7:30pm on Friday and a “just following up on this” note with god and country cc’d at 8:45am on Monday. Even seeing those timestamps happening to someone else would have me looking out for that person's bullshit going forward. Instant distrust.

Nybble posted:(Inappropriate personal number sharing/use) It's bad, but I don't think you're going to change them, or see much difference if you change jobs. Wait until the stress has subsided and you're getting more sleep, but it seems like it'd be easier to change phone numbers (even with associated info updates to various things that depend on it) than changing employment.

Midjack posted:They call these "brown bags" at my fedgov workplace and lol if we get free food on the taxpayer dime so we're encouraged to bring our lunches and get eyefucked by lovely PowerPoints in an overcrowded conference room for an hour. I only go when it's a topic of intense personal interest presented by someone with a unique perspective and I never eat during the show. Our lunches are unpaid anyway so I just eat afterwards, it makes for a slightly longer day but is a net positive. Now, if people start using the other popular definition of brown bag it could get significantly more entertaining. Innovation: black bag lunches. You submit the attendance list to security and they awake, confused and groggy, strapped to a chair in the meeting room.

If they're technically inclined, just tweak your typing slightly. "Should we go with A XOR B? Please respond in the form of a logic table."
