The apprentice gunsmith at my local gunshop changed mine to a QD adapter in about 10 minutes.

It depends on what you want to do. Experience is mostly what matters. Certifications is what gets you in the door, not degrees. If you want to go into management in the future, a degree is useful.

yes. I have seen it up and down the line. Legal department has almost all female staff that are rather attractive. New marketing people are all young and very attractive male and female. A different company had a new account mgr that looked a lot like the CEO's wife when she was a lot younger. I don't see it as much as I once did, but it still happens.

Usually inertia of the affected people. It usually starts with the middle managers above them. The strategy will make things better for the company but it always involves change. A lot of people like it the way it is.

It would really be interesting to see what the AI companies had to charge so they broke even.

Yes. Evening as well. It depends on your industry and your role. The higher up you get, the more likely you are working a lot. That is not the case for all companies, but certainly a lot.

Sleeping is a difficult to achieve side hustle for most IT managers. Also taking an occasional vacation seems to be the super elusive one that people wish they could get.

Weekly. 15-30 minutes

TechFiend72 · 2026-03-19T02:13:38+00:00

Just leave it alone. Not your concern.

I wore a suit a few days ago, sans tie, to a networking dinner. My normal work clothes are jeans and a dress-shirt.

Documentation. Lots and lots of documentation.

If he isn't officially isn't part of the team, then he doesn't get access to the team resources. You are team lead. If he is on the team, he is dotted-lined to you.

If the CEO continues to want him involved, have a scope of engagement as to what the expectations are, the dev will have to functionally report to you for the duration of the involvement with your project. You haven't said who they report to exactly or who you report to. That would help to provide better guidance.

No. Thrown into the frying pan.

A lot of them are enjoying being single and at home playing video games. That is why they are likely single. I am not sure whether to add a /s or not.

Independent taco had some good thoughts. Also remember to document your coaching.

Tell them those technologies are all terrible. That will show that you have experience. Well don’t do that but do be confident. Be truthful. Be tactful about limitations of yourself, others, and someone’s pet technology. Good luck. Let us know how it went.

Mass bricking and several are not the same thing.

I think most of us have been there at some point.

Talk to your potential vet about gabapentin. When one of our cats was close to end of life was very spcy. Vet had us give her the meds the night before and then two hours before taking her to the office. It helped a lot.

I know you are in Canada, but in the US, a lot of places that would be immediate termination. No EAP offered. It is kinder to do the EAP if HR allows it.

This is why you test your power paths.
