I need a new job so bad Maybe in a new field. Is there one that pays better for less work? I'm pretty sure after decades of dealing with technology I'm enough of a sociopath to be an exec

nielsm posted:The new hotness is starting a new conversation in Teams instead of replying to the existing conversation, leaving everyone else wondering what the gently caress you're talking about. I love how slack will just randomly drop bits of threads in the main channel so everyone is a little disoriented at all times

it generally seems to happen when a thread has been quiet for an hour or 2, and thats actually usefulish, but it absolutely occasionally drop a message tagged "so and so replying to <thread>" in chat

Yes, my linux based home lab that is explicitly MS free needs me to integrate it into azure. That sounds like *fun* Especially since I manage everything with ansible

new owners tried to have a mass onboarding meeting today, so beforehand I messaged the HR person and let her know I won't be coming in for less than 6 figures, and even then I have my doubts about working for a company that felt the need to buy me she will be flying into denver friday, and we will meet up to have coffee and discuss my future, and I am not coming in without it actively happening.

/\/\/\. Nope! Mich shadieri am a moron posted:God drat it quit joking what is happening how did a company buy a person They bought a client list, and the knowledge base to support those clients. I am a significant part of that knowledge so they attempted to transfer my employment (along with 6 other coworkers) without like, asking my opinion or anything. Me signing with them may be part of the whole sale, meaning it falls through without me, and I am absolutely amused at the whole thing.

Winifred Madgers posted:Sounds like you have a lot of negotiating power then. I didn't get shut down when I said I walk without 6 figures, and wouldn't work til I get that in person meeting to work it out. I'm also fortunate to be in a position where I can actually walk and have the support I need, so it might be time to stay at home and play with my partners kiddo for a few months.

i am a moron posted:No I get that, that’s why I was curious about the phrasing. It would be more accurate to say they sold a department off than a merger, tho it wasn't actually a department. The old company is still alive and kicking and being complete garbage

I ended up just refusing the offer, the job had already gotten to the point of routinely reducing me to tears. They tried to demand a letter of resignation, and I pointed out that I never worked for them in the first place. Time to be an automated housewife

Renegret posted:If you don't mind me asking, what were they offering you? Did they think they can move your employment over like that and give you a pay cut in the process? Did they offer the same and are shocked you dared suggest a raise? Business as usual, but with less benefits, and we will discuss future when they get done with everything else(a situation that I know means never)
