(also, I fucking hate it when people censor the naughty evil words just by covering one letter. Everybody knows what that word is you numpties, either cover the whole thing or don't do it)
Then it's a good thing they covered two letters in this instance. They did add one, so it kinda averages out though.
Yes, exactly this was my inspiration, glad the reference still got through.
And also yes, who the fuck is fb king? That sadistic alien guy?
Or like what does f-star-cking mean? What those f-type stars doing??
It sometimes feels like this. At work i keep trying to let people help, and every time I do it comes back to bite me in the ass. I don’t WANT to micromanage, but they don’t give enough of a shit or miss things if I don’t basically direct them step by step and constantly followup. It’s exhausting… I miss working with reliable people.
Yeah that definitely sounds exhausting. I've had a few chances to work with some absolutely exceptional people who I could trust would do their job to the best of their ability, and then some… well, less than exceptional people who really needed constant hand-holding up to the point of me having to read error messages for them ("what does the error message say? Oh you didn't read it? Well, do the thing again so you get a new one. Ok so it says that the foo failed to flerb: have you tried checking the foo? No? Well, maybe try that and see where it gets you"), and I definitely know which one I preferred.
I definitely feel that… last week I was asked a question by a client regarding our status as a “local business”. I had no idea, and so I asked my coworker, who tried to look into it a little online, and came to the conclusion we probably weren’t one. So i told them we weren’t, and they were like “That’s strange, because when your company filed the original paperwork you said you were”. Weird of them to ask when they already knew the answer, right?
Well the real kicker is my office manager was CC’d on all of these emails, and after all this, I decided to ask her if she knew if we were considered a local business. She just said “yes, we are”. All I could think of was “Well why didn’t you chime in and say that at the beginning? Did I seriously have to specifically ask you to respond?!”
I didn’t actually say that, but I really wanted to…
Inspirobot, right?
No idea honestly, I just found this lying around on the internet
There is nothing dangerous in the dark woods.
I hear that guy has problems relying on people.
Fuck.
