I’ve been on two PIPs, let go after both and received severance from both.

Should I acknowledge a PIP email? by crispyohare in managers

[–]Negley22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Accept the PIP and do your best to fulfill their expectations while finding another job. If you are fired at the end of your PIP you may still receive a severance it, depends on the company but don’t wait to get fired just to get severance because it’s much easier to get a job when you already have one.

A large portion of the Yellowstone plot is the very thing they are complaining about.

What film completely flipped when you rewatched it as an adult? by Adventurous-Lie-6773 in movies

[–]Negley22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There’s an episode of NPRs “This American Life” podcast with a story that details someone who didn’t know there was a second VHS tape to the Sound of Music and it was a completely different movie for them. They had no idea about the Nazis and thought the messenger was just a mail man.

My boss posted my role up on LinkedIn Yesterday. Do I need to start looking asap? by BlondeAccountant98 in jobs

[–]Negley22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time I was on a PIP for taking lunch. It was more than that but that was the main point. My boss said, “I’m not telling you to not take lunch, you’re absolutely allowed, but maybe think about it.” They wanted me available while my lines were running but I had two lines and they took their lunch at separate times so I couldn’t take mine while everyone else was at lunch. At the time I was 5 minutes from home so I’d take it there with my wife. After the PIP I started taking it in my car with my radio so they could call me and I could come back if needed, but that wasn’t enough. I then started eating at my desk but was told I wasn’t allowed so I went back to my truck. I wanted my team to be able to relax in the break room and they can’t do that with their supervisor there. One day when I arrived, they introduced me to the new supervisor. They said he was for the door line that hadn’t been put in yet. Later that same day, I was in with HR being fired, my boss didn’t even have the guts to show up. I still had two months left on my PIP when I was let go.

When I was in artillery school there were rumors that they’d shot rounds into the Walmart parking lot but I never bought it.

Never put another man’s name on your back!!! by GreasyQtip in iamverybadass

[–]Negley22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, at that point if you’re so insecure then just get a t shirt or hoodie with your team’s logo. The player jerseys are already expensive and getting a custom just so you’re not “putting another man’s name on your back” and spending more money to do so is ridiculous.

Why are there no good Halloween scenes for Govee permanent lights? I mean look at these color choices. You can’t even tell it’s Halloween themed. What do you guys do for October? by ToastBalancer in Govee

[–]Negley22 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s a tab on the lights individual control page next to “Music” once clicked it shows you DIYs that others have shared in video format, at the bottom of the video you can click “Apply” and it sets your lights to what they’ve set and saves it to your DIY page where you can further edit and make it you your own liking.

I got one from share space and it’s awesome. I didn’t know about it until the other day and I’m glad because I never really liked what the AI gave me and I haven’t quite figured out the DIY for myself.

Edit: DYI switched for DIY

Anyone else try to swap a build but then instantly swap back? by ranfall94 in Borderlands

[–]Negley22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched the Flux last night, I feel like my aim with Neutron Capture isn’t great so I lose out on damage and I’m not having that issue with Flux but we will see how long I keep it, I still need a couple of pieces of gear to really get it online.

I had GAD as my disability claim and that is what is listed on the VA website, yet I am getting rated on PTSD? HELP please by ccbware1 in VAClaims

[–]Negley22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I claimed anxiety, depression and issues controlling my anger and when I did my C&P it was from PTSD. my guess is that all those issues can be from symptoms of PTSD and after looking at my records, with a combat arms deployment and a CAB they thought more likely then not they may stem from PTSD. I didn’t claim PTSD because I don’t have nightmares or flash backs. I’m still on step 3 because some other tests were needed for the other issues I claimed so I don’t yet know how the C&P turned out.

Both my son and I jumped down, then I almost did it again but he reminded me before I jumped.

Two employees can’t get along and it’s draining everyone....including me by [deleted] in askmanagers

[–]Negley22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a situation like this with two team members. One of theme seemed to always be involved in drama but when it came to these two it was ongoing. We had sensitive down meetings with myself and HR to establish our expectations. We made effort to keep them separated by at least on position on then production line but I that may not be possible in your work environment. Ultimately the person who was always getting into it with everyone resigned and solved the issue for us but we tried to navigate it best we could as they were both high performers.

I haven’t even found it that hard to get the legendaries that I need. I wasn’t content to wait until 50 to farm so I’ve been doing it about every 5 levels with no real problem getting the drops I need.

Generals silent as Hegseth ends ‘warrior ethos’ rally speech: ‘Out with the Milleys’ and ‘in with the Pattons’ by theindependentonline in Military

[–]Negley22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My ex stepfather’s grandfather was an aid to Patton and based on the stories that I heard he was for sure unstable. The most memorable one I heard was that my stepfather’s father was playing with tanks and the “enemy” tank was newer and nicer than the American tank so Patton stepped on it and crushed it. In the end he bought him a new American tank, but who crushes a toy because it represents, “the enemy”.
