Hi all it's time for our quarterly 10% time sprint. I know it's been cancelled for the past two years but I bet you are all very excited

Remember all your pitches must align with our company goals and tech leadership will approve them if they do. Once approved you can use the excel sheet to sign up and if we feel the project aligns with your personal goals we will approve your assignment.

If you do not sign up to a project we will assign you one we feel matches your personal goals.

If your product manager has reached out to us about urgent priorities you will not be allowed to work on a project, but you can still pitch your idea!

why did we schedule this a month before the big product launch? half of engineering is furiously working to fix bugs so we can meet the arbitrary deadline you set

im sorry there will be no swag this year. we did a cost analysis of one of our designers spending a few hours a year making a tshirt and deemed it was an unauthorized allocation of funds

but dont worry we have docked their PTO in the appropriate amount that they spent making last years hackasaurus shirts.

Please help yourself to a complementary company branded napkin though.

Yes I will reinvent the wheel on one of the dependencies of our product. Why? Because I came up with a much better name for it.
