- Comment on it's gonna take lots of chain falls and smooshed fingers 4 weeks ago:
I’ve been in Management for the last few years, some teams were 60+ people and some were only about 15. Your chief is a dick that needs to get their hands dirty. Any boss that isn’t willing to respect the time of their team, whether on the clock or off the clock, doesn’t deserve to be a boss.
I knew the hours of everyone on my team. I never gave a shit if you had kids or a party waiting for you after work, what you do after your scheduled hours is up to you. If I didn’t have enough employees for the work we had, that’s my problem and not yours.

Man this makes me want to play the Kitten Space Agency game
- Comment on Okay but like the light has been green for 0.3 seconds 1 month ago:
Massachusetts is dense with the added bonus of comparatively old-world city designs. I’ve found NJ and NY drivers to be more vocal and annoyed, whereas Mass drivers will just risk wrecking you because you’re only going +20 above in the middle lane or stopped at the light that says no right on red

- Comment on I hope there's not a queue 1 month ago:
In Uni, 3 of my roommates were trans of varying types. General consensus in the trans community is that you use the bathroom that will cause fewest problems, usually the gender assigned at birth. If you’re mid-transition or are still struggling with your presentation, ask a staff member (if there is a staff) or bring a friend if you can.

“Here is his mugshot, taken at 19 years of age.”
- Comment on Billionaires with $1 salaries – and other legal tax dodges the ultrawealthy use to keep their riches 2 months ago:
The point is, no one living in the developed world has to live like that just to have financial freedom. Not while people like billionaires can be taxed enough that we can consider living like a miser archaic
- Comment on bit rude, innit? 2 months ago:
I mean, the British helped to make us
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
Late-stage dementia patients typically lose a lot of weight, even among those whose diets are monitored. Combined with the drugs he’s on, I think they’re doing everything they can to keep him alive so he can soak up as much negative press before/if Vance takes over.
- Comment on Do you have to deal with this during your morning commute? 3 months ago:
Lmao sounds like where I grew up in Mississippi. Farmers everywhere, but quite a few Mennonites and Amish too
- Comment on Do you have to deal with this during your morning commute? 3 months ago:
Yep. There are a lot of people out there, each with their own lives and schedules. Work isn’t the only thing in life people have to deal with, and responsibilities don’t end when one retires.

- Comment on Rushmore 4 months ago:
Considering the US violated treaties to destroy land with significant spiritual significance just to capture the Six Grandfathers and turn it into Mount Rushmore, it would absolutely be for the best.

Best brand of rum I’ve ever tried. Their Jamaican casks are my favorites, and the OFTD Overproof and 3 Stars for when I can’t find those.
- Comment on Keeping that MFer on its toes 6 months ago:
No no no, it’s called intermittent fasting
- Comment on How would you quickly describe Lemmy to a non-fediverse person? 6 months ago:
I found it pretty easy by explaining that if reddit is a website, then Lemmy is a search engine that just has the same feel as reddit.
It isn’t accurate, but gets the point across to those who don’t understand tech.

I feel like the meme would be better without the comment

Gonna take the time to plug network-wide ad blocking with Pi-hole or something similar.
- Comment on what's a good answer to placate the c-suite if you're accused of lacking motivation and being unfriendly? 7 months ago:
Of course lol obviously I want a team member that works hard and is motivated. But also, people can change. Things happen in their lives that change their motivations and needs.
If they just want money, that’s fine, but I’ve seen and experienced how pushing someone who is working decently (or great, even) can cause their performance to tank if they didn’t want to be pushed in first place.
Managing large teams is less about managing their work and more about managing the people so that they can work more effectively.
- Comment on what's a good answer to placate the c-suite if you're accused of lacking motivation and being unfriendly? 7 months ago:
I don’t control the hiring process and I don’t control the incoming members of my team, so don’t assume I’m an idiot. My team has excellent performance and I was able to get approval for my team to grow from 30 to 60+ people.
IDK why you assume I don’t try to encourage my team, honestly. We get good results so I reward them well. If we performed poorly, I would have a different approach.
- Comment on what's a good answer to placate the c-suite if you're accused of lacking motivation and being unfriendly? 7 months ago:
I’ve been in a management role for the past 3yrs. I always tell my team that I don’t expect more than the minimum stated in our job responsibilities, that I expect us to work as a team when needed, to maintain a moderate balance between their work and their lives, and to try and maintain a positive attitude.
Work sucks, but I want my team to be happy. None of us want to be working, but none of us want to be miserable, either.
