We adopted a hybrid model. I’m in a technical role and most of my team is all very far away from me (1200 km). Some are in my local office however, but I don’t really work with them. Thus, I promptly ignored the emails encouraging us to return

Travel to my office is 35 mins; 45 to an hour in winter. No thanks. I do exceptional work, get my shit done, mentor juniors, and was hired on covid. You can drag me back to office kicking and screaming.

I’ll go if there is a reason for me to go: in-person client workshop? I’m there and I’m there early. Big wigs are in town and want to meet the team? I’m first in line to shake hands. Im not, however, returning to the office for the wonderful conversation at the urinal. I don’t project manage or people manage. Give me your garnliest technical issues, and I’ll lead a small team to complete them, but I’m not signing timesheets or pushing corporate messages so I don’t need to rub elbows with people.

Now if you’ll excuse, the basement isopods are getting lonely

I said what I said.

I don’t give a shit if it’s mother Theresa slobbing my job, as long as I get their number and they’re game to do it again.

Call me bb.

I’m with you. I used to use a lot more parentheses, but the break is cleaner. I opt for en dashes, though, because I find too em dashes to be too long. That could just be a MSWord preference because I don’t distinguish on other platforms.

I’m working on it, but a lot of my issues stem from repetitive motion injuries.

In my case, it’s the combo of way, way to much walking in work boots and then later doing a lot of sitting. gotta shorten up those hip flexor, bae

This is the most accurate thing ever. I’m pretty sure I still have dirt in some of the creases of skin, and I haven’t been in the field for 3 years

This is a brilliant comment - thanks for the laugh

Strict for strict’s sake is bullshit. Holding your kids accountable for their actions, enforcing boundaries, and channeling their energy into productive ventures might be considered strict, but that’s good parenting in my book.

Nigel powers: look at you, you don’t even have a name tag! You don’t stand a chance. Put your guns down. That’s right, put them down on the floor.

Idk, they’re sticky these days on NSFW. A few years back anything went as long as it wasn’t nudity of gore.

That said, I wouldn’t want my boss walking by while I was browsing this particular meme.

It is

The best part, though, is that you don’t have to be here and you’re subjecting yourself to lazy, dull content!

You also don’t want the internet to think to hard, or you end up with the most cursed stuff imaginable

The burning will undoubtedly attract more moths
