i've been documenting emails and notes when he deigns to talk to me.

idk if this is normal, but he refuses to meet with me unless i schedule it. also his schedule is mostly double/triple booked lol. the last meeting we had scheduled for reviewing development objectives he cancelled with about ~30min notice

the sr designer suggested my "development update" communication to him be 1 pager ppts, so neat, i guess i get to use the kindergarten level corporate coloring book style, which i usually reverse for exec communication

like i get that he's a busy manager and all that, but dude has six direct reports. that's it

it still sounds like it's causing you a ton of undue stress imo. i know you said you're not quite ready to move on but you really should consider your options, that doesn't sound like its conducive to a good work environment anyway

Anyone here familiar with what GPS tracking solutions are solid? Now that I've got my instrument collection rebuilt after getting jacked, want to have some kind of tracking on the valuable poo poo so I have a chance in hell at recovering it if it happens again. Vehicle too.

airtags

people make all kinds of cases and mounts for them and they'll work anywhere someone has an ios device

so unless you need to track stuff that's off grid, they're the best option

it absolutely is causing me a lot of undue stress. it's more that i had hoped the severance would help with cushioning the fall, although even without it i think I'll be ok. my husband already put me on his insurance so we have that covered, and we have his income, too. it's still upsetting and sucks!

i think what I'll do is set a date for myself of "if no pip by this date, i will resign" because tbh this poo poo isn't worth it lol.

apple just stole the idea from tile, but can do it better because they can integrate it into the os instead of requiring an app to be installed

Yeah it kind of sucks for tile because there's no way they can compete with 100% of apple devices looking for your tag rather than just people who've installed your app, but they also were charging extra for that feature so lol
