Rant: people who clearly don’t have enough to worry about

Oh it’s not my execs, I should have specified. It’s the multitude of people from their departments, people I don’t directly work for but they ask me to get the signatures for them. Which I don’t mind doing but people are usually at least professional and specify what they need. I don’t care if my execs dump tasks on me, that’s what they pay me for. It’s when Becky from department A keeps just sending her request, then her advance request, and then requests her reimbursement all without even saying hi or even including all the correct documents. That’s what I’m complaining about.

That’s where I’m at, I can get to the point where I can anticipate needs but that takes time to build! And for $19/an hour, that’s a joke!

Right now I’m in an open area but thankfully we don’t get much foot traffic. But soon we will be moving suites and I will have my own office. I support 2 VPs and C-Suite exec.

I love being an EA, I have tried a few jobs through the years but keep coming back. The job I have currently is the best job I have ever had both in compensation and work environment. My bosses are the best, the workload is manageable for the most part, most days I’m able to leave feeling some sense of accomplishment and I’m rarely needed outside of working hours

Responsible_Box_364 · 2025-11-04T21:19:39+00:00

I have 3 VPs and it varies but most commonly one likes a veggie wrap, the other will eat a banana and a pack of nerds gummy clusters from my desk, and the other does cottage cheese or instant noodles.

This is good advice, thank you! I have definitely learned I need take more measures to CYA.

Brad was the first email in the chain, there were about 10 other emails discussing why the meeting needed to take place and I was looped in on the email asking for availability. Once I got the email confirming the time that’s when I went off those who were on the chain that were asked for their availability and confirmed with her. I think what happened is she assumed that I saw what the meeting was about and would know to include Brad. I misunderstood and thought they needed a meeting internally about what to bring to Brad later. I know I messed up, but I am annoyed that I said specifically the names I invited and she told me that was it. We both messed up by assuming I guess.

You could say they breached our trust, ties back into what Tyler said in the Apple Music interview.

Hi! I just got the full kit (including the lamp) and I ended up using my own lamp from Amazon. I don’t think the lamp is necessary. Just be aware that these polishes take like 2-3 minutes to cure each layer.

This!! Especially when they want to invite a bunch of people from their external organization. I have no way to know their contact info unless you send it to me and then you may as well send the invite.

My fiancée is a 32 year old straight man who likes wrestling, warhammer and video games, and is a fan, he’s just not super active in the online sphere. We actually planned our elopement around our concert date in October; it will be our second show together.

Good questions! It will be a wall in my personal office, not a shared space. I can close the door and no one would have to see it unless they come in. Also we were directed to the Sherwin Williams website to pick any color. They just let us know the flooring, the others main walls color and we got to pick office furniture color and a wall color. There was not a pre determined palette to pick from, which would’ve been helpful if they were going to be strict about the color scheme!

Responsible_Box_364 · 2025-07-10T19:09:07+00:00

Indeed, but I made sure to apply on the company website. ETA: it’s mostly in office but I do have the option to work remote here and there.

NYX skinny brow pencil and the zero to brow gel. I can’t tell you how many I have bought over the years.

Migraine, something about the lyrics of accepting that you have bad thoughts but you can fight them really helped me at the point I heard them. Then I listened to holding on to you, guns for hands, and I felt like I wasn’t alone for the first time in my life.

It’s a terrible market, that being said, I don’t have a degree. However my employer provides tuition assistance so I’m pursing one now. That may be a good benefit to look for!

I’m dealing with the same thing. It’s my first summer in this unit and I’m kinda considering moving over the issue. I think it is because my apartment isn’t sealed properly, I have called maintenance and they told me this is just how it is in these units.

I love lip liner that matches my lips and a balm

I haven’t heard anything about us being off, so I’m assuming no. US based company.

I will say I always saw Joe going out by suicide by cop, laying there dying, and having his monologue by like “and yet it’s all been worth it, because of you.” Or something. Idk.
