I'm watching a show about Stonehenge, and everything "possibly holds religious or ritual significance."

Is there anything in archeology that doesn't hold religious or ritual significance, because it sure as hell seems that way.

Also my dog won't stop farting.

I used to work at a historic site that did archaeological digs on-site (though not ancient) and I can confirm that holy poo poo it's all just animal bones and broken pots.

I took a single semester of intro archeology, and the professor said "if you can't figure out the purpose of something, assume it's due to ritual and religion."

Does this have any truth?

I got a C- on my performance review. Why? Because I work remotely regularly.My boss admitted that I'm more efficient remote and much less efficient at my desk, and am online a lot in the evenings working.

My annual raise will be less because I'm not physically seen working. I won't be getting a bonus worth thousands because I was under a C.

What the gently caress.

My wife's ex-fiance took almost 10 years off his age (he said he was 35, was really 43). He didn't communicate with his family and all has friends believed the same so she had no way of knowing he was lying, until she went to the DMV to take care if something for him. That pretty much did it.

Call them back and tell them you weren't able to answer, your wife or whatever's <insert random relative> passed away and you were working with that. Then say "I'm sorry, I know your problem is important and I would've looked into it yesterday".

You get the benefit of them loving off for a little bit and the added bonus of them having to apologize to you for bothering you.

I was called for jury duty once and since I was at college, that was an acceptable excuse for them. Haven't been called since and I think its because they still believe I am in college.

I think this might have happened with me. I got called up once 16 or 17 years back, and they wouldn't accept that I had an exam the day of the trial ("The professor can reschedule for you", they said).

Haven't gotten called up since.

One of my Aussie teammates hosed around with my deploy code, and "it worked" so he released it to production. Note, it didn't work, and now over a hundred APIs are failing and I need to fix them.

He also got a better performance rating than I got, in part because I'm remote a day or two a week.

Also he's 100% remote so really what I'm saying is gently caress everything work related.

I missed Packing Teachers chat, but I can't get fuckers at work to take a free CPR class that the company pays for, during their work day, that they get paid to attend, because they don't think they could do it.

The real answer to what language to learn is none because your job will just get outsourced anyway.

Neil Armbong posted:

Have you seen the utter garbage those teams produce? Them and China and original IP wastelands.

Yeah. My company outsourced my developer job a few years back. They brought me back on the build and release team, and those fuckers still don't know what they're doing.

"My program is throwing an error that points to an obvious bug? Can't possibly be my poo poo code, must be the build teams problem!"
- a "highly qualified" developer

"My program isn't available to deploy. Fix the issue. Why no I didn't check it in or trigger a build. That's necessary? What's SVN?"
- a "lead developer"

The best part? I'm up for losing my job again in probably 6-12 months to the same loving group of "developers".

I hate IT so very much.
