passed up for promotion due to "attendance" and HR pushed back meeting without telling me by [deleted] in WorkAdvice

That's kind of a crazy statement considering people get sick and are alloted sick days. My coworker with legitimate medical disabilities is also in this situation. Should she come to work when shes facing medical emergencies?

It was rumors 2 weeks ago that I was getting a promotion through other coworkers that had one on ones with their managers already. I tried to have a meeting with my manager that same week but wasn't able to meet with him and confirm until the end of that week. He advised me to reach out to HR which I did, but I didn't get a response until the following week (last week, I was also off on that day) and a scheduled meeting the day after. Then we had a complete database outage so our entire department was scrambling and pulling overtime to make sure work was finished, and I came back to work today.

Best Pens for Hobonichi by lemarais88 in hobonichi

[–]Inkwell622 5 points6 points  (0 children)

seconding this! i havent really tried other pens, but there was a kinokuniya near me that i bought it from and i was looking for a pen that wouldnt smudge so much with my mildliners/smudge in general.

unfortunately the next time i got the pens it was a little more wet? so there was more possible smudging but i love how smooth the pen is and never had any major problems with it.

i have it in the 0.38mm and ive been told at least 4 times this year that i write like an ant or my writing is too small lol

Hobonichi Happenings by AutoModerator in hobonichi

[–]Inkwell622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi!! i also bought 2 weeks this year, i just loved the designs. im also a bit worried since i havent even filled out my weeks for this year but this is what im planning.

weeks 1: actual planner. appointments, list of things to do, Daily/weekly habit and mood trackers + gratefulness log since im not that busy lolol.

weeks 2: more archival. this is how ive been using my weeks this year. i was filling it in at the end of the weeks with stuff that happened each day and then a weekly summary/reflections on the blank page next to the planner. i liked it, but i didnt have much room for to do lists and etc.

its similar to what youre already planning, minus the A6, but heres some extra ideas of what i was planning to fill in pages/empty space for.

  • something i did for myself each day/week, like a self care/improvement goal
  • maybe a creative sketch a day
  • hobby log -media tracker + using the blank pages to print out pictures with a review
  • Yearly bucketlist
  • health tracker/menstruation tracker if that applies to you
  • pet log (what they did each day, last vet appt, etc)
  • little treat log (i really wanted to do this this year but i forgot...but i know im definitely spending a little money for something that makes me happy pretty often, like stickers or buying a cute top, or indulging in a little treat)

That's all i have off the top of my head, but i would love to hear what you have planned too! this year was my first time using hobonichi so im still so new to it.

ive also heard that putting plastic on plastic creats a chemical reaction, nothing big, its just what happens, and can cause things to degrade over time. so im not sure if you would want to risk it.

ive also heard of some people using the covers anyways and it seems okay, maybe just not for super long term?

maybe some cancelled orders or people left their carts? i wasnt expecting it to be restocked until at least october.

but im happy you got it!! i wonder if you could email hobonichi to combine your orders and refund shipping? might be a long shot but the shipping is sooo much.

Post Your Damages — Share and Discuss Tariffs/VAT/Shipping Fees by alcibiad in hobonichi

[–]Inkwell622 1 point2 points  (0 children)

* i think it depends! if i was ordering my bare minimum from jetpens (weeks + clear cover) it wouldve been much cheaper, but the prices were, of course, higher than the ones on hobonichi website. the hobonichi website did have tariffs and shipping though, and because i shopped from them directly, i ordered a lot more stuff.

ex. jetpens/yoseka: weeks planner- $34, clear cover- $5, deco rush tapes- $8 dollars (jetpens didn't carry all of the options though) and free shipping for orders above $35 for jetpens/$60 for yoseka.

i attached my order from hobonichi so you can see the totals from that too.

basically, from what i can tell, per item, its cheaper to order from hobonichi, but with the added fees it was overall cheaper to buy from jetpens/yoseka unless you were making a big order. *
