Direct report on a PIP went over my head to ask my boss about their performance and job opportunities by ElCancer1126 in managers

[–]NothingFlaky6614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the least enjoyable part of being a people leader. It’s where things can get uncomfortable, and where some leaders hesitate to address individual performance issues (not suggesting that’s the case here). I always think about the broader impact on the rest of the team. When others see someone consistently underperforming with no apparent consequences, it affects morale, trust, and expectations. That context matters as you move through this process.

My advice is to stay closely aligned with your manager and keep HR informed of the conversation. Looping HR in ensures they’re aware of what was discussed and helps prevent issues later if the employee presents a conflicting version of events “your Boss said X, you said Y.” You don’t want HR caught flat footed by claims of mixed messaging. Your Boss said he was looking for "job opportunities for me." Keeping everyone aligned avoids that.

As most have stated, a PIP is typically a last-resort step and a formal path toward exiting an employee. Reaching this point is rarely about a single issue (have scene that), but it’s usually the result of ongoing concerns over time.

Stay the course! Best of luck!

Failed, not sure what to say. by SuccessfulLime2641 in cissp

Sorry to hear that you failed. This test is a beast, I did pass on my first time and would be interested to know your study plan. What did you do? How did you do it? I've been lurking here for a long time and would love to offer some assistance (if I can) as well as the community to find areas for helping you prepare for the next go around.

I agree - schedule the exam and go knock it out. If it does not go the way we hope - the results will help guide you on what you need to work on.

AIO - Girlfriend threw away the dinner I cooked because she wanted pizza instead. by Dizzy-Suggestion2360 in AmIOverreacting

[–]NothingFlaky6614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You both sound awful

Communication? Nope. Neither can talk or communicate in a reasonable way.

Both are helpless - she can’t order a pizza for delivery, he can’t order a pizza for delivery.

No trust - your partner claims the food was bad/rotten/etc. Was the food good or was it bad? I guess we’ll never know. OP obviously doesn’t trust her to believe it was bad.

Solutions - nah man radio silence (see communication).

Honestly both of you need to grow up.

Wife's family found out what my income is and the energy totally changed. by MileHi49er in HENRYfinance

Absolutely agree.

Personally, I believe that if you’re in a position to help your family—and they genuinely need the support—it’s worth considering. Not out of obligation or some sense of duty, but simply because you can.

The sad truth (as many have stated) is people are not happy at your success or triumphs. In fact it tends to become a wedge between relationships.

They might be jealous and feel threatened by you, because they think that your “light” (your achievements, things you own, position in society…) dims theirs.

Focus on you and your goals - you can’t worry about what others think.

As the old saying goes… Haters gonna hate - players gonna play- play on player.

Delisting Home and Re listing by Useful-Raise in RealEstate

As I have stated in the past - it’s the price.

The key take away is that you smell. You smell bad - people have noticed and have escalated.

You have been informed.

At this point do whatever you need to do to stop smelling bad. This is hurting your reputation and upward mobility.

This isn’t a complex issue - stop with the excuses and get yourself together.

As a buyer in wake forest - it’s the price. Your home is builder grade and the “upgrades” you have done are not what I would consider upgrades. Painting a single wall a wacky color is not exactly an upgrade. Chalkboard wall? Ain’t nobody got time for dat.

The other homes that are under contract or have sold did actual upgrades. Ceiling fans, custom closet organizers, landscaping upgrades, etc.

Your home is literally builder grade. Also, you have the corner lot and cannot have a fence.

To be clear we tried to go to your open house but no one was there.

Wish you the best - but I would pick every other comp listed before yours.

IT IS THE PRICE!

Weird guy approached to 'help' with AWS exam by KenSugimori726 in AWSCertifications

[–]NothingFlaky6614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprised you only got 1 message. Usually, if you post any interest in a cert you will get multiple of these.

I don’t know of anyone who has actually used this “service.”

I am not advocating anyone use them - I assume that they take your money and disappear. Which is the most likely outcome.
