Bringout Microsoft FrontPage!!!!

Oh dear. I use 50 char passwords with lower, upper, numbers and symbols. I get absolutely angry when they don't let me use my password pattern

His ass belongs cleaning up sewars not programming

I'm done with that. Deleted everything and moved to Mastodon

You just summed up my week

Dude. Make no mistake. I feel like crap by doing this. But I got my own stuff to do. And in getting pressure from management to deliver it because we are already 6 months behind schedule. I simply can't help everyone who needs. But it worth it. I was able to finish my task when teams was closed

That is some awesome advice. Thank you! We didn't think of that!

Living with one, they are absolutely desperate.
The market is crazy and with tons of vacancies to fill it's just a sh*t show :(

@KryptonTurtle adding up to it still join me to conference calls (which I didn't answer) without asking me first or respecting my "do not disturb" status.
F**k this, I'm gonna take a shower. My focus is f-ed up anyways

Update: Specially when your colleagues do not respect it anyways

That is why they are management. They have to take those things into account. For any relationship to succeed both parties must be in on it. So if you choose to leave and they don't take any action, they are the ones doing a bad job. You are only looking after yourself

Add a comment in Jira and mention your leads and make them put it in writing. Or at least add that additional work in an issue comment. Additionally you can always leak the defect to the QA team so they will open the defect for you

Except in Halo. In Halo, Cortana is cool

Fine by me as long as the changes are done with his/her credentials :D

That's the spirit!

Just take a deep breath and ignore

Jesus Christ. They should add identic memory to the job post

👋👋 Hello!

I'll throw in my two cents.
I don't know if you ever tried owning a pet? Owning a pet could be very heartwarming and pick someone out of numbness.

In the same lines. Did you ever tried volunteering? Perhaps helping others can be a win-win where you both help someone and help yourself....

I hope you'll get through this!

@grospataplouf godspeed :)

For me, it's very difficult to force myself. The brain just doesn't produce anything

@IntrusionCM thank you very much for those kind words

Some people just can't take criticism. Don't worry about that. Your type of proactive skills is getting increasingly more in demand you will be fine and he will have the same constant median boring life

Some people just want to see the world burn ahahahahh

Myself sometimes need to start working earlier before people start working and in chaotic times I set teams to do not disturb and only allow my boss to talk to me. It's a s**t attitude culture wise but otherwise I can't focus, period

Things are getting out of hand. Employers sign binding contracts and for some reason expect us to worry as much as they do.

I don't walk around defending that employees should get a share of the profits because in that case they should also have to pay a share of the losses.

But if the employer wants shareholder level of concern they must have shareholder level of compensation; otherwise the employee is only paying you for X amount of your time, nothing else.

That is why lots of companies grant shares to employees as a compensation to make the employee think that those shares will worth more according to how much work you put in

Dude. It might not be his fault, but it's not yours either. The second a company touches my vacation it's when I hand in my resignation. It seems nothing is sacred anymore..... :(

WOW! Thank you all!
And thank you @Root for taking the time to write such a comprehensive list. I will try to be the best team leader possible

Can't get them to pay?

I guess you can always flood the support staff with bug reports.
If it is that expensive I'm sure they will have a great support team.

Bonus points: Check if they have some SLA in place and use that as proof of the system being unreliable.

Maybe you can have enough grounds to make them revert to the old system
