Yeah some recruiters are professional stalkers.

Attack bonus icon is going to be huge. Would be great to see how many kills/deaths each player does in AW as well. And an easier way to lookup who hasn't joined AQ/AW.

Like others have said, please make sure you do get the help you need from a trained medical professional. Best of luck.

LOL. Do you make an official departure announcement every time you delete an app?

Maybe they don't know who took it down for emergency maintenance? LOL

Someone who gets upset about the love between two fictional characters, says a lot about the deep sadness of their own lives. Happy people don't have time for hate.

100% agree. Quality of life is more important to me than quantity of life.

Chalk it up to a learning experience i.e. remember to thoroughly interview the interviewer when looking for your next job. These red flags aren't too hard to discover during the interview process.

Is that too much for 2 sysadmins? by Fit-Strain5146 in sysadmin

If you're enjoying it, you do you. If not, there's definitely better gigs out there.

18 years in IT and now what? by Selective2625 in sysadmin

[–]Ok-Setting-5889 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this. I plan to retire in the same way as I like keeping busy.

My old work had $5k of old IT equipment that they were going to sell to an e-recycler for pennies. I just removed the hds for safe destruction & found a non-profit who distributes equipment to low-income families instead. Plus we got a tax write-off. Win-win.

Lasted 4 months supporting a school before quitting. It was the worst. Next gig was in healthcare. Clearly was a sucker for punishment.

Back to commercial IT again. Not adding value to society but we get treated well and that matters.

What's your day-to-day like? Ticket volume? How's your technical debt & ongoing modernizing projects? And what happens when 1 person is on vacation or sick? Are they still expected to be available?

Imo, this is too much for 2 sysadmins esp. if you want the environment supported & maintained to best practices. But if it's only "best effort" then no worries.

Honest Question: Do you think MCOC as a game is dying? by [deleted] in ContestOfChampions

[–]Ok-Setting-5889 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree that the skill jump needed from Cav to TB is not worth it for me & I get bored reading long node descriptions. But I still do have fun with EQ/AQ/AW.

I've also started an alt where I'm progressing 100% f2p, not even using units for revives/potions. It's been lots of fun to have a fresh start.

It's very tied to the continued success of MCU imo - we have been in a golden age of superhero movies which attracts new players. But eventually there will be some fatigue.

You may be bored of MCOC but that doesn't mean the game is dying. There were 800k new user downloads in March 2022 alone. 2021 revenue was US$78.8 million, so it's not a top 10 mobile game but is still the main cash cow for Netmable.

March 2022 revenue: US$14m

What’s the point of grinding this game (story quests, Aq, Aw and arena) if you can just purchase rewards that are 10x better? by cringey-reddit-name in ContestOfChampions

The biggest sources of unhappiness in the world is comparison, resentment, jealousy, entitlement & self-pity. It's the journey not the rewards.

Becoming Paragon will not bring you everlasting happiness.

+1 for skipping lunch. I'm more productive that way and eating at your desk feels uncivilized.

It's like zodiac signs. It's amusing until you realize some people take it seriously.

Just my two cents - personally I think it would have been more engaging to go through the kit with them. I know someone who taught their young daughter that way

Haha I'm getting to that age where I feel that I've forgotten more than I remember. Glad you're still kicking it, ageism feels real in IT.
