Well i dont think it worked out for her.

a year or so after i left that company i heard she was sacked

depends on the situation. otherwise good employee who rarely if ever is sick and works hard calls in about being unable to work? absolutely fine

Person who i know knows exactly how many days a year over how many periods of absence it will take before HR get involved using it as a second pool of paid holiday days and leaving us high and dry to deal with the things she’s paid to help the team with then yeah, bitch

her name was karen too…

i found a working red telephone box in stratford-upon-avon last week.

most of them have been turned into defibrilator access points, or mini libraries or ripped out entirely these days.

Russia have demonstrated the ability to carry out chemical weapons attacks on mainland UK soil.

the british military slashed budgets considerably after 2008. we’ve maintained special forces and we decomissioned our last carrier before its replacement was ready. we’re back up to 2 carriers now but dont have enough planes to put on them.

In my current job the old manager okayed working on our own devices.

I would use my personal workstation to ssh into and do work on my work mac, did that for a few years. saved me disassembling my desk between uses every day or buying a costly KVM.

They seem to be getting a lot more uptight about security these days (although the “you can work on personal devices” rule hasnt been explicitly rescinded) so i have stopped interaction between my personal devices and work devices.

Having a M2 mac recently makes it easier, i can lie in bed and work pretty much all day on a single charge so my desk remains intact

oh lol… apple…

Yeah, i could never

My gripe is that i was on an ad free tier. They just changed it so that the tier that was previously add free now had ads.

If they had added an ad free tier below my tier i would probably still be a subscriber.

“you watch ads now, pay more or fuck off” didnt sit well with me so i fucked off

Libre office writer is a thing

That sounds about 25 mins longer than i’m willing to call a standup.

if it’s not wrapped up within 10 mins of the scheduled start time something has gone horribly wrong

That caravan looks nice

WFH was a £6.6k tax free bonus a year for me.

I hope it never ends

Valve is pretty well liked. not sure you can really call them a games publisher any more though.
