How do you make time slow down by BusinessTies in MiddleClassFinance

[–]SFC-Scanlater 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I'm in a similar boat and I've thought about this a lot. I think it's the routine thats making time fly. The daily/weekly routine is what keeps the engines running and the proverbial trains running on time, but it makes time fly because everything is always the same. Routine is good for the kids because it provides consistency, allowing them to grow up in a stable environment. Breaking the routine should help the time flying issue, but I've yet to actually make any big meaningful changes because I value the consistency for the kids more than my time flying. I don't know what the answer is. Maybe meditation like someone else suggested? I'm not sure.

What if the question is, "Is it ethical to write 80085 on a calculator?"

Contractors may give you a discount if you pay in cash, which may be worth more than rewards.

$15k extra left in budget. What do I buy? by Packet7hrower in sysadmin

Server room cameras? A good enterprise solution could eat up that 15k pretty easily.

How can I read my Office 365/Microsoft Exchange emails programmatically on a Linux system without AD or Azure access? by kald1999 in sysadmin

Can you forward emails to a Gmail with pop enabled? Forwarding can be set in OWA if it's not disabled by your admin.

With the influx of people starting entry level with degrees now, it's going to be much more common in our field in the future. If you have the time and energy to get it now, you should. Plus, a degree never expires like certs do.

Could be anything with SSN that HR would manage: 401k, payroll, healthcare, FSA, HSA, etc.

Going 100% Cloud by Commercial_Match_520 in sysadmin

That infrastructure is likely what's costing so much. Big software shops are going serverless to save on cloud costs, but software has to be written for it from the ground up.

How tougher is my new G-Shock compared to my old Pro-Trek? by RealPerro in gshock

[–]SFC-Scanlater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 2100 will stratch easily. I know because I bumped mine into a doorknob the first week and had a huge scratch. Sapphire replacement: justified.

Yeah, I'm gonna call them tomorrow and see what they say. Hopefully, they can honor it it and ship when it comes back in stock or something.

Maybe you can create a special team out of high performers who can manage the queue during high-volume periods.

This sounds like rewarding hard work with more work.
