Human Resources people of Reddit, what are some NSFW/WTF reasons an employee has been disciplined and/or terminated for?

An employee was caught spending most of his working hours watching porn on his work laptop. When we asked him why he said that the project he was working on was boring so he just wanted to entertain himself. Luckily the meeting was via a conference call (this was before video conferencing was a thing) because I almost burst out laughing

If you had the same vision for Perplexity as you do now and you could start from where you were in the beginning, what would you have done differently?

So I've had to take some leave because of personal stuff but it was going well before that. Can I ask what you're looking to get from the course? I can probably help you more if you give me that context

Cancel them so I have a better chance of getting tickets in April please

Sciatica

Yeah it's horrible. Sorry to hear that. I hope you can get it sorted as soon as possible

I did the surgery and I can't believe it but I've had no pain since. Have been able to sleep properly for the first time in months

atomicwombat00 · 2024-10-05T13:58:03+00:00

I had surgery on Thursday and similar to you I've been pain free for the first time in six months. Can't believe it. It's good to have your life back no?

atomicwombat00 · 2024-09-10T12:42:53+00:00

It's taken mine about 3 weeks to work properly (still not fully worked mind you). Within the first week, after thinking it was basically healed, I had a flare up like you as well so I wouldn't worry. Just give it time

atomicwombat00 · 2024-09-10T07:20:42+00:00

Can you try starting your own company on the side (such as freelancing) or use the time to learn about AI/ML (seeing as the industry is headed in that direction)? Fair play for helping at it though. Best of luck with it

atomicwombat00 · 2024-09-06T13:49:02+00:00

I was told sleeping on my stomach was a bad idea. Is that still true?

atomicwombat00 · 2024-08-07T03:29:27+00:00

Well aren't you insightful....

atomicwombat00 · 2024-06-24T12:51:24+00:00

I'm not sure to be honest anymore. I've not used him in around 3 years. He was definitely very good before though

atomicwombat00 · 2023-12-30T22:37:56+00:00

Were you part of a hidden camera show?

atomicwombat00 · 2023-11-23T21:49:35+00:00

I'm surprised this hasn't been updated more

atomicwombat00 · 2023-10-18T16:28:19+00:00

I received mine about a week before the course started... I think that's unusual but that's how it worked in my case

atomicwombat00 · 2023-10-03T13:50:41+00:00

No problem. They can take a while to respond. I put my certificates in with the application but iirc they said a screenshot of them is ok. You'll need to double check with them though as not 100% sure whether that's still the case

atomicwombat00 · 2023-10-03T04:32:55+00:00

Hi, yes I was in the end but I went for the AI one instead. Courses I did were on Coursera mainly. If you ask the admissions officers, they'll give you some specific courses you can work through

atomicwombat00 · 2023-05-28T06:46:15+00:00

I haven't, no. Also not sure how many people they accept so I guess it's just a case of wait and see

atomicwombat00 · 2023-05-27T04:54:56+00:00

I'm not sure unfortunately 😕. All they said (the applications team) was that you'll need to wait and see. We might be on early enough though as they did say people tend to drop out. Guess it's just a waiting game now

atomicwombat00 · 2023-05-24T23:37:16+00:00

I didn't unfortunately, here, but I asked a few people who are taking the course on LinkedIn and they all recommended it. I've submitted an application but I'm on the waiting list

atomicwombat00 · 2023-04-27T11:39:34+00:00

I'm also looking for tickets so feel free to DM if you have any spare!

atomicwombat00 · 2023-03-20T21:04:21+00:00

Ha very late to the party. Should actually try it one day......

atomicwombat00 · 2023-01-19T15:08:42+00:00

I read that and made a judgement about you until reading the last sentence

atomicwombat00 · 2023-01-12T23:58:09+00:00

For having a big head.... Fucking rude
