eo287540014yA vacation starting the day after a big release. Oh and leave your phone and laptop in the office so they know they can't contact you.

iamai21074y@Eklavya we are already working remotely so disappearing completely is best
@Nanos the longest I ever did was 3 weeks straight. it would be nice to have constant long weekends but I can't pull it off. I'm afraid to even try less it will jeopardize my chances for a promotion or at least a big pay raise. -
eo287540014y@iamai that's pretty messed up... you should earn a raise without exploiting yourself ☹️ world we live in...

iamai21074y@eo2875 my bosses are good people. Most are not as technical which sometimes causes my rants but I just don't want to give our management any reason to see me less of a candidate for promotion over all the other employees they have who also wants it. I could apply for a a day or two leave but I'm refraining from taking one until I get good news. Best foot forward while calibrations are on-going :)

iamai21074y@Nanos I could understand bending the truth would be tough to witness. I don't really wanna care about office politics since a job done right gives me more satisfaction. But we just choose our battles and our champion. In this case I'm lucky to have a team lead to help pitch a good word for me. Hopefully my manager would agree and have all the reasons they need to fight for me during calibrations. Once we are up there then we pay it forward :)
