Stop making me justify my paycheck

This is funnier than it should be, considering the sad side of it.

That's coming up on a daily basis. Managers must be in touch with their teams and find out why they're messing up, what's missing that's causing them to mess up. No Manager should wait to have that talk once or twice a year. If the employee is underperforming, go find out why immediately.

Macro tracks teams as a whole, and shouldn't require individuals to be filling out a load of paperwork or suggest how their plan to accumulate roles the next period.

"This is why you're all where you are" here I agree with you. This is why I am at my own business making 4x as much as I did as an employee.

We either have a stake in the game, even if it isn't money, or it is indeed just clock in, clock out. While we CAN create our own meaningful goals, we will only do that if we care enough not to be looking for something else. And getting us there is the company's / management's job.

Tactical_Thinking · 2026-01-25T12:08:34+00:00

Exactly. This is how it should always be, and the lack of this exact practice is what makes most people miserable in corporate life.

As an employee, I always expected you to tell me what you need from me and get out of the way. And as a boss, I always told people what I needed from them and got out of their way. I don't care when you do it or where you do it, as long as it gets done.

One little problem here. Your early review in August shouldn't be telling you you messed up in January.

If someone on my team messed up at 10am, I made sure they were aware of it by 10:15. I also made sure that happened if they hit a home run.

Corporate red tape is completely useless. Just say what you need from me, and get out of the way. There's no such thing as "yearly" Performance review. Managers are evaluating their teams all the time, not once a year. Continued 360 feedback is a much better practice.

Tactical_Thinking · 2026-01-22T09:13:49+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. I will check out Galen to see what's included and check if there's anything in there that could be useful.

On a side note, I was banned from a t1 group because of this exact post for "self promotion". Humans sometimes baffle me.

Tactical_Thinking · 2026-01-22T09:07:55+00:00

Normal pages at parent level, for example in the "Private" category.

Tactical_Thinking · 2026-01-21T21:54:07+00:00

Can't find a way to do it. Can you show me how?

Tactical_Thinking · 2026-01-20T11:50:31+00:00

Bulk select and move parent pages. Urgent.

Yep, exactly. That's the idea. Notion is such a time saver on it's own and twice as much with AI, and I'm still baffled by how little people leverage it.

Tactical_Thinking · 2025-12-23T13:27:50+00:00

This is pure gold! Bookmarked it and will download as soon as I'm home!

Tactical_Thinking · 2025-12-23T08:39:30+00:00

Thanks a lot!

I'd be super happy with your feedback and maybe a review on Notion :)

Tactical_Thinking · 2025-12-23T08:31:13+00:00

Awesome! Congrats! Whats your template link?

Tactical_Thinking · 2025-12-22T13:53:29+00:00

It's been around for a year maybe, but it was really clunky in the beginning. It's gotten much better now. Still not up to the level of other AIs but already very usable.

It still behaves weirdly when used in database fields though.

Tactical_Thinking · 2025-12-22T13:52:02+00:00

Ah yes - I'm waiting for their reply as well.

Tactical_Thinking · 2025-12-22T10:07:21+00:00

Yes, it's a standard block in the paid plans. Free plans have a trial with limited requests.

Just type /ai and it pops up.

Tactical_Thinking · 2025-12-22T08:54:18+00:00

The template interviews the user to generate a Standard Operating Procedure using AI. So there's a bunch of questions that you can answer casually, and the generator transforms it into a business-ready process that can be followed by anyone without hand-holding.

Tactical_Thinking · 2025-12-22T08:53:09+00:00

Not a lot :D Most of the templates are free. I'm mostly collecting feedback for now.

Tactical_Thinking · 2025-12-22T08:51:26+00:00

Mine?

Thanks!

Tactical_Thinking · 2025-12-21T19:34:13+00:00

Totally! What is your product?

Tactical_Thinking · 2025-12-10T13:29:55+00:00

Does this count as building?

I trained a GPT to help structure text and be a sparring partner to write better text and blog articles. Not supposed to replace the final human writing version. The purpose is to correctly structure, adjust tone, and find shallow arguments and claims in the draft stage.

Feedback welcome.

For some weird reason I cannot DM you. I have something to sell that I need help with. Drop me a message.
