If you can't spell the word, I doubt your expertise in that subject. If you can't spell a lot of words, then the doubt increases. If you sound like a used-car salesman ("the ask", "the spend"), a cliquey teen ("literally"), or a moron ("till tomorrow") then I will judge you as such and know I don't need to read anything you write.

The place I've worked at for over a decade now Darth Vader'd the deal and implemented mandatory scheduled overtime after cutting crews to skeleton. I'd rather get fired than work overtinme, so initially I refused all of it without justifying why.
After a year of doing that a manager tried to scare me into complying, but I just kept asking what the minimum amount of days I'd have to work OT per year and he refused to answer, and I never got written up.
So I work 2 OT shifts a year. They still haven't fired me 6 years later. I guess training a new guy in a specialised position is too much work vs putting up with my stubborn ass.
Crazy that paying overtime is cheaper long term.
It's not "garlic aioli". All aioli has garlic! It's "plain aioli".
Its just fancy garlic Mayo. And its kind of gross.
Huh. Today I learned. Neat!
I work in IT and the worst thing to deal with is a manager who is also a super tech. Techs need to do tech and managers need to management .
Agreed. I've worked with/under great managers both with and without IT or tech background, and what they both have in common is that they left the IT/tech to the ones in IT/tech roles.
In fact, it took me two years of working with one of them to learn by accident they had an IT background, lol. All along I had been using layman's analogies to explain what was the problem, what was needed, and why, when I could have just explained it straight.
I'm going into software project management and have a ComSci education and development expertise. I'm starting to look forward to getting everything dumbed down for me just for me to ask a highly technical follow up.
Accountinq/management should adapt to the company way of working and not the other way around. I've seen project getting split in a way making no sense technically speaking, and product getting senseless names/reference but this is how SAP works, and accounting needs it that way
The problem is that accounting/management also need to adapt to legal/compliance requirements that may make no sense or don't fit the company way of working. And that moving away from SAP would be a gargantuan task with no clear and immediate benefit to the company.
Am I tripping even harder rn?
I copied it, except non-technical this time.
nope, that has been posted before. or we are both tripping
Water isn't wet. In the same way my clothes aren't clothed and bacteria aren't sick.
But bacterias can be sick, phages are a thing.
What industry is this?
Anything (edible) you can do with chicken, you can do better with pork
This can't be true until boar taint is eliminated. Pork (apart from bacon) is trash food
Grilled pork sandwich? Pork nuggets? Others mentioned pork wings and pork noodle soup.
Pork is good, but to say it bests chicken in every way is not a hill I would die on, or even attempt to climb.
Grilled ham sandwich and pork nuggets both exist. And pork noodle soup does sound good.
Yea, you’re right. I wish more restaurants got on board.
Scrambled pork eggs?
I don't think the chicken itself is involved when making scrambled eggs.
How about some pork wings then? I'll cook some for you... ...when pigs fly!
Pork noodle soup? I can see it.
Can confirm. Similarly, pork and noodles is amazing
And didn't even credit the original question. Such a coward.
