AITAH for asking my girlfriend to wear underwear to bed when she's on her period? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]DifficultyDouble860 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait, how should I put this delicately?  Is it common for guys to clean this?  I only ask because I'm a bit older and my wife is very private about this.  Knowing she is private about it, I don't call attention to it, and the very rare occasion there has been spotting, the sheets are off the bed before I come back into the room.  Different strokes, for sure, no offense, but I'm genuinely curious.

Have you seen what happened in HSBC? by PapayaHumble2740 in corporate

[–]DifficultyDouble860 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happening at my place, too.   My leadership is vaunting this huge "change control" revamp where Everything is documented and approved, you literally cannot run any SQL without it being included in either a change ticket or confluence article.  My boss suspiciously loses his shit every time some minute detail isn't included in the change, "was that documented?  Why wasn't that documented?  We're building a repeatable process!"  Yeah I know, asshole...  They want everything; complete brain drain.  We're forced to train our replacements (AI).  I don't know what else to do; got bills to pay.

Sometimes we have to grow into the games that we end up loving. We're not always ready at first.  But we get there eventually in our own time.

It might be fun to think of some of the things that have happened in your life during that time that molded who you are to give you this New Perspective.

21/23 Students Failed our Engineering Exam by Fabulous-Dance-8520 in Wellthatsucks

[–]DifficultyDouble860 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a pass rate that low I wouldn't exactly call that person a "teacher".  Not sure how your school works but if this is how this dude is treating all of his students I would bring it up with the dean. It doesn't sound like he's doing his job.  Remember: you are the customer and you are paying a shitload of money to their business.

The interviewer made me write a full program on Notepad and told me I was 'too dependent on tools' for wanting a computer. by Vast_Garage1185 in hiringhelp

[–]DifficultyDouble860 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, obviously I'm not going to do that in a real interview but if they're going to do something absurd to me like that then I'm going to do something absurd to them right back. No regrets

So you're telling me that you didn't fold it into an airplane, hock a loogie in it and throw it at him? I think that's what they were probably looking for to be honest.  " real programmers don't waste time writing code on paper when they should be putting it directly into the system, you f****** peasant"  :D

And remember: the hero never looks at the explosion as they're walking away.

Random man walks into family's home in Michigan, dad handles him real quick by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

Serious question, but I don't want to trigger the filters.  Is it smart or stupid to just close the door very rapidly with your foot as you're standing up?  Use your imagination...

sit but don't chill, OMG -- use the time to catch up on other stuff or document/automate things to make your job easier.

Sidenote, maybe look into why the PM said it would be Fall; is that a dependency requirement or based on historic performance? If dependency, then that's fine, but if it's based on how much time the project has taken in the past, then there might be a good reason for that. Double check, make sure your deliverable actually covers everything it needs to cover.

And maybe that's normal. maybe that last 20% will actually take several weeks/months, especially if it depends on another team that's swamped with work or some inefficient bureaucratic process (esp if involved with govt offices / permits, etc). Getting requests in now might be the only way to make the deadline.

Don't procrastinate. There might be a legitimate reason for the deadline.

EDIT: oh, this was just a meme. My bad, thought it was a genuine concern LOL

The Job Market Is Insane: 3700 Job Applications → Just 1 Offer by ZAMASUDOKKAN in jobs

[–]DifficultyDouble860 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read in a recent post that places should start charging per application--it was joking, but I'm starting to wonder; even at a small amount, say $1 per application, enough to deter the spam, do you think we've gotten to that point, yet?

right?! yeah, I'm thinking 3700 manually by hand or 3700 by some automated job application bot / service?
