Fitzy Fitz posted:We're getting inundated with optional DEI and wellness seminars lately (all via Zoom). I assume this is common everywhere right now, but I had to share this one from a neighboring department. It's for dealing with workplace crises (how to help clients/coworkers who are dealing with emotional distress, suicidal ideation, panic attacks, and potential domestic abuse), which is fine I guess. Typical seminar. But it's two hours on Saturday, and it costs the attendee $25. They want you to pay them money to work overtime on the weekend so that you can personally address workplace issues. Someone else must have thought this was ridiculous, because now the department's offering to pay for it lol. Lol! Yes, I will pay to come to work on a Saturday, thank you for this opertunity!

Spread petrol everywhere and set the place on fire, imho I've gotten shouted at at work precisely once, and its weird how it taps into your "getting shouted at by a parent" system. I always hoped I'd shout back, but I just got worried and felt guilty. Olewithmilk fucked around with this message at 11:44 on Mar 19, 2021 |

Prism Mirror Lens posted:The default ‘approximate match’ setting on VLOOKUP has absolutely hosed everyone who has ever used it. Whoever implemented that is a complete rear end in a top hat They really are. I've been close to loving myself many times with that, as someone who knows VLOOKUP and associated magics but gets asked to do it maybe once a year.

I volunteered to help someone at short notice at work, like an idiot, late last week. Doing something I don't usually do and what turned out to be quite a big job. Whatever, I started doing it. Friday, the boss who i volunteered to help gets sick and doesn't come in. Over the weekend I get sick, Monday I get told by numerous people to log off by lunch because I look that bad and the boss is still not in. I get the work done to what I think is a reasonable standard a day early and post a link to the file so people could change it if they want to, explaining I'm logging off because I'm ill. I load up my email this morning to re-arrange meetings happening today because I'm still ill and see I have numerous emails and missed phone calls from the boss's boss asking me to change things about the work. You get paid multiple tens of thousands of dollars more than me, you can't read your emails?! When I reply to them saying I can't do what they went, they say 'these things happen, maybe someone else of your level can make these changes?' As if I'm supposed to find someone else to do it. Get hosed, Jesus christ.

McGavin posted:"Maybe." That is exactly what I wanted to write. Then again, maybe not, seeing as though no one else 'of my level' volunteered to help in the first place, including people who should actually be doing it.
