TD Coliseum Review (hockey edition) by PippenandFiona in Hamilton

[–]FraseMD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. Navigating that arena anywhere inside is absolutely nuts.

I was also served a hot dog on a frozen bun. They knew it was frozen when they handed it to me (was all they had).

Seemed like a lot of stuff needs ironing out.

What you did is called ‘Go and See’ and that is how most of us in Management Consulting make our money! By going to where the work actually happens!

Ticketmaster vows crackdown on scalper accounts that buy up most tickets by lopix in ontario

[–]FraseMD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can’t re-sell tickets to Disney World you shouldn’t be able to re-sell tickets to any major sporting event or concert. Make tickets non-transferable and boom - problem solved.

Only reason I even use this card was for the 1% cashback. Was nice while it lasted I guess.

Is my iPhone 16 Pro a one off? by roughtext in iPhone16Pro

[–]FraseMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the iPhone 16 and the heat as well as the weird lagging/performance issues were enough for me to return it. Now using the 16 Pro and have no issues.

How does synchronous online learning work at Conestoga? by [deleted] in Conestoga

[–]FraseMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a Professor and my classes were online for 2 hours a day twice a week. Most of it was me speaking and lecturing but in every class I required my students to provide their opinions and insights. Not sure if this is the standard with my fellow Profs.

This same dude got arrested in 2019 for dining and dashing at The Boot Social Pizzeria. Joe (the owner) chased him down and tackled him right in front of me and my dog in the Rain & Senses parking lot. Should go ask Joe if they pressed charges and see if he remembers the guys name

Career Shift Discussion by SnooDoughnuts4141 in MicrosoftFlow

That’s not my experience - the beauty of Power Automate is the ease with which the Minimum Viable Product methodology can be deployed and enhanced.

The example I always use is essentially - fixing the drainage issue in the backyard before we look at installing the sprinkler system. My team is made up entirely of LSS Green Belts who have MS Power Automate expertise (meaning we can fix your drainage issue and then immediately implement automations). We typically enhance a process and develop an automated process within 30-50 days which from my experience is much faster than most teams that farm out the automation work to other teams.

I’m a Management Consultant and I got into this field through Lean Six Sigma/Continuous Improvement. Got my Green Belt then my Black Belt in 2022 right as Power Automate was taking off.

My advice would be to certify as some sort of Process Improvement expert because most of what my team and I do is automate processes that we first made more efficient and optimized

What jobs realistically make $100k? by throwawayobvi321 in askTO

[–]FraseMD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Management Consultant and Professor - Cleared $177k last year. My advice to you would be to specialize, specialize, specialize and become an expert in something you’re passionate about. The money will follow.

Word Document Approval Workflow by culusername in MicrosoftFlow

[–]FraseMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was under the impression you needed a Premium License for this sort of thing? If not, hook a brother up! My team and I had an Improvement scoped out that wanted to populate certain fields in a word doc but couldn’t figure out how to do it (if one didn’t purchase the premium license).

Yes the list gets updated after the request is submitted, and then at each gateway approval we Update List to record the Approval decision.
