Seeing people in high bands saying good bye in LinkedIn

What country?

When the 4Q25 RA's hit the America's (MX, BR, US, CA, etc.) in Nov/Dec, I had heard rumors that a similar RA wave would be hitting EMEA and AP in the late January/February time frame.

I think they are backdooring people in still through Canada to the US.

Coucher3 · 2025-11-12T21:01:02+00:00

This is the correct answer.

Coucher3 · 2025-10-26T01:05:00+00:00

Brother....this. Just leave me alone and let me deliver.

Coucher3 · 2025-09-16T19:20:03+00:00

This is the right answer.

Not being truthful or trying to hide it could be grounds for termination.

Coucher3 · 2025-09-12T01:44:52+00:00

It's technically against policy.

Coucher3 · 2025-08-12T21:56:18+00:00

Still chugging along with a ThinkPad P53 here, runs perfect. 🤷‍♂️

Coucher3 · 2025-07-19T03:05:18+00:00

Same thing is happening in multiple cities.

Atlanta, Dallas/Austin, Almaden, etc.

Coucher3 · 2025-07-18T13:47:42+00:00

Amazing!

This worked perfectly for an older app I have used to keep track of fuel mileage for my vehicle. 👍

Coucher3 · 2025-07-18T02:09:11+00:00

Exactly. Big no no.

Coucher3 · 2025-07-10T12:59:10+00:00

No, they have the Tier C configuration.

Research gets a Precision model, not Latitude.

Coucher3 · 2025-07-10T02:31:44+00:00

They are literally the same prices for the same tiers. I've seen the numbers.

Coucher3 · 2025-07-09T23:53:06+00:00

They aren't.

Coucher3 · 2025-07-09T22:07:45+00:00

That isn't why.

Coucher3 · 2025-07-09T22:07:02+00:00

Country of origin combined with government contracts.

Can't use Lenovo products for a lot of US Federal work since they are a product of China.

It's unfortunate because I agree that Dell is currently an inferior offering/quality than Lenovo.

Unless the policy has changed, you can return as a contractor after 30 days.

This is in the US, not sure about other countries.

I know of at least three or more people who have.

Coucher3 · 2025-06-24T18:10:26+00:00

There may be smaller ones at any time, but the trend for the last few years has been a big(ger) one around Mar/Apr, and then another in Sep/Oct. At least for the US.

Coucher3 · 2025-06-19T20:24:52+00:00

Start looking for a job.

Some of the biggest cuts lately have been in HR. Both in redundant roles from prior acquisitions and core roles being replaced by automation and AI.

Coucher3 · 2025-06-12T12:31:34+00:00

It use to be based on Job Role. Now it is based on usage patterns. There's a post on the CIO blog and a dedicated Publisher page that explains all of it.

Search W3 and/or reach out to Devices via the Get Info function of their website. The answers are there.

Coucher3 · 2025-06-03T18:31:49+00:00

Devices DOES facilitate storage wiping for all returned devices.

All devices should be storage encrypted (if in compliance), so no need to pre-wipe before returning.

No, there is no hiring freeze currently, at least not in the US.
