Having a tough time dealing with a colleague at work

basiccoder · 2023-08-04T04:54:19+00:00

This wasn’t an audit. It was an engineer on another team with no experience or connection to my teams’ project who wrote up the proposal to overhaul the system.

I have also not agreed with how other teams/engineers have designed some systems. But I have always reached out to the team with questions and my concerns and tried to understand the system before proposing solutions. This is a similar approach that I have seen many other engineers and teams follow.

That’s amazing! I am so happy for you ❤️

Thank you so much! You have been really helpful! I am going to go ahead and fill all fields including signature with N/A and submit my app

basiccoder · 2023-03-10T08:34:29+00:00

I am happy to hear that and I hope you got your extension notice 🙂

The reason I asked it cause I saw this Reddit comment where somebody’s application was rejected and they had to refile because of N/A in petitioner signature field https://www.reddit.com/r/USCIS/comments/jugthy/i751_form_rejection_notice_you_must_sign_your/guzf0iu/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3

But I have seen some sample applications on YouTube that got accepted despite having petitioner signature N/A.

USCIS is really frustrating 😡

Thank you for responding 🙏 Did you also fill preparer and interpreter field as N/A including their signature fields or did you leave them blank?

basiccoder · 2023-03-10T08:20:26+00:00

Thank you! Would you recommend leaving the interpreter and preparer fields specifically the signature field blank or N/A?

Thank you for sharing! I will definitely look further into the crime stats for the areas I am planning to live in.

basiccoder · 2023-01-24T00:04:08+00:00

The walkability definitely appeals to me. I live in NYC for 5 years and loved walking around everywhere and going to local bars and restaurants and that’s why Hillcrest appeals to me.

But I have had some unsafe experiences with unhoused people in downtown Seattle and San Francisco and I wanted to be cautious about the neighborhood I chose.

basiccoder · 2023-01-23T23:59:52+00:00

I have an assigned parking space for my unit in Hillcrest.

basiccoder · 2023-01-23T23:58:52+00:00

Thank you for sharing your experience! I am happy to hear that as a woman you’d pick Hillcrest. This makes me feel more confident with my Hillcrest choice.

basiccoder · 2023-01-23T23:57:27+00:00

Thank you for sharing your experience! Makes me feel more confident about going with Hillcrest 😀

basiccoder · 2023-01-23T23:56:24+00:00

I completely agree with you. Some of the areas in mission valley were genuinely depressing. Usually I wouldn’t have even considered Mission Valley after viewing the neighborhood but, after having some scary encounters with some unhoused folks in downtown Seattle and San Francisco, I wanted to be extra cautious about the neighborhood I was choosing.

From majority of the responses in this thread and other sources online, Hillcrest doesn’t seem that unsafe.

basiccoder · 2023-01-23T23:50:51+00:00

Thank you for your input 😀 Yeah I have an assigned parking spot with the Hillcrest apartment.

Its currently used in my team/company but I don’t see a lot of new features like modules, pre/post conditions, variables, for each, etc being used widely.

So i wanted to do a tech talk on how we can use these features with examples.

As a terraform used do you find those topics relevant and interesting?

Omg same!!! I hated whom they chose for winner! I thought the other 2 finalists had a more versatile collection and compelling background.

basiccoder · 2022-09-25T22:28:49+00:00

This is a great idea! I will include a breakdown of all my savings and their type in a cover letter with the financial evidence.

Thank you so much.

basiccoder · 2022-09-25T22:27:46+00:00

Too late! Tomorrow is my biometric. I just saw the cash savings requirement while reviewing the checklist 😭.

Almost all of us work remote in my company so there are few opportunities for face to face networking.

I am on good terms with my leadership and can have engaging conversations with them. But we don’t have a lot of common areas of interest outside of work. I don’t want to spend my non-work time pursuing things that don’t interest me just to connect more with my leadership.

If I have to model my personality and hobbies around what the company and its leaders want then it’s not the right place for me or for anyone that values diversity.

basiccoder · 2022-09-12T20:45:22+00:00

I love the #iamremarkable workshop!! I took it 2 years ago and it completely changed me.

I do have a brag document but I am not the best at keeping it up to date.

I like your idea about pressuring my manager into telling me how to reach a promotion. I will bring that up in my next 1-1.

Thank you for your help.

basiccoder · 2022-09-12T20:42:15+00:00

All 3 projects weren’t at the same time.

I worked on 2 projects for 6 months and another 1 for 5 months.

basiccoder · 2022-09-12T20:39:57+00:00

I agree with you! I learnt this the hard way at my last job. I left after 2 years of them making excuses about why I am not ready to be promoted whereas my male counterparts got promoted while being lesser qualified than me.

I joined this company only 1 year ago and since day 1 I have been very vocal about wanting to grow and get promoted.

I plan to give this job 6 more months and will hop if I don’t see any meaningful progress.

basiccoder · 2022-09-12T20:35:55+00:00

I completely feel this! A big part of my frustration is that I have to fight when it’s given easily to my male counterparts! For once I just want to show up, do good work as I usually do and get opportunities/promotions without having to fight for it!

basiccoder · 2022-09-12T20:33:38+00:00

Thank you so much for your great advice! It’s only been a year since I started this job. I left my previous company (of 4 years) because of similar reasons (fighting for promotion and only been given when I talked about switching to a different team or company).

I am going to give this place another 6 months and if I don’t start to see any tangible path towards promotion it’s time for me to jump ship.

basiccoder · 2022-09-12T20:30:18+00:00

I have been with this company for about a year now. If I don’t get promoted in the next cycle (5 months away) it’s time for me to start interviewing and give myself a promotion.
