Boss and myself planned the internal office move from one building (whose rental leash is about to expire) to another building.
Bossly Unit also asked a couple of times regarding the move, but no reply was forthcoming from Top Brassy types.
We communicated our intent and got the painter to paint out the section where we were moving to.
Only when we started to pull network cables did you deem it fit to appear on the scene and change things. We stopped the work we were doing, and is now waiting for you to make an official decision.
If youāre logged in remotely to a training session from a part of the country that is further west, make sure you have plenty of coffee on hand. I donāt appreciate hearing you snoring while Iām trying to understand this.
Plus, unprofessional. If I have to strap on a kilt to get here, the least you can do is be a little bit awake.
You didnāt remember that I was on training this week, but you remembered that you had asked me to send you an email to remind you that I was on training this week. How does that even make sense to you?
I know that it has become common for people to insert the the short phrase āgo aheadā to indicate what they are going to do or as part of an instruction, but this guy says it all the time, for everything. Not only that, he says āover hereā in almost every gorram sentence. I was going to try to count the number of times he said each (just for fun) but had to stop after 30 minutes after counting 10 of the first and 40 of the second.
I am now insane. Iām doing this course the rest of the week. Wish me luck.
Sharepoint, what is up with your sorry excuse for pagination? Itās bad enough you only offer a single page forward/back control, but most of the time you canāt even do that right, giving me bizarre results.
Thinking of sending an anonymous email to the chairman of the board and complain about $CFOās conduct at the company - he doesnāt care about expenditureā¦
Case in point - when company car (BMW) was in for some minor panelbeating repairs, he ordered a rental mercedes, not just a cheapy either.
And he have 5 company SIMās⦠****** knows what he does with them.
If you want me to attend the mandatory training course, be aware that itāll probably put me in overtime for the week.
I work nights, people! Not even by choice: It was a requirement of the position, and one that was discussed several times during my onboarding. Iāve accepted it and adapted, now itās your turn.
(Actually, I did say this, albeit in a more polite manner. If they want me to attend the course it could potentially turn my normal 8 hour day into a 12+ hour day, depending on how things work. But if the bosses think tiās important to pay me OT rates for a happy-happy-joy-joy company brainwashing meeting, Iāll do it. OT money is good.)
Well⦠Is that the only time the bathrooms are cleaned? Because in some cases, even OT isnāt worth it.
Final verdict was that I should come to the meeting. So Iāll get some combo (partially my choice) of an early exit Friday and OT. Not a terrible deal, really.
True. But I held on to that when someone wanted me to do something stupid like hand enter a 2000 member census into excel because all they had was a scan of a fax of a copy. Since Iāve been salaried, Iāve gotten a lot more selective about crap like that. You canāt pay me more, so if itās stupid I just wont do it, or Iāll make it clear that itās preventing me from doing X, Y, and Z.
