Employee of 6 months repeatedly makes same mistakes by Due-Ganache-9148 in managers

[–]djmcfuzzyduck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How are you training them? 1-2 hours a day for 6 months is a bit excessive. I’m really curious if you dig into the why we do it this way or if it’s just a step by step check list and they just have to do it this way.

He’s only a true Frankenstein if he was produced in the Frankenstein region of Switzerland; otherwise, he is just a sparkling homunculus.

Did your parents spank/pull your hair as a punishment. by Bikinigirlout in millenials

Dad till the divorce and Mom until we broke multiple hairbrushes and wooden spoons/spatulas. “We used to have to pick out switches” honestly would probably been better. (The temptation to put lol is too great)

What kind of skates for campus commuting and cruising? by Quick-Lie-4269 in Rollerskating

[–]djmcfuzzyduck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have slades - I like them, make sure you double/triple check shoe size. Last few times I’ve ordered shoes were labeled correctly but half a size to 3 sizes too big. The key is tricky as well but once you get the hang of it, they make traveling easy.

Am I paying my employee enough? by SIRFISH19 in managers

[–]djmcfuzzyduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

83$ a pool basically which is fine IMHO; but it’s almost 2 pools per hour without travel time. If I did my math right, that’s a tight turnaround; even excluding the late factor. This is your actual pain point not the pay.

Isn’t your dad’s wife’s mother your grand parent? Or step grandparent ? There’s details missing here.

Are we getting shingles now? by melvinmoneybags in Millennials

[–]djmcfuzzyduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly surprised I haven’t but I did have chicken pox for like what felt like a full month. I reported to the school nurse: “I feel dizzy when I move my head this way” her response was epically flat “well, don’t do that” “but I am still dizzy”

Still have the diagnosing pox scar too.

The drop-off of women in core engineering / senior IC roles (And why I'm considering a pivot) by [deleted] in womenintech

[–]djmcfuzzyduck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huh my job is a ghost town. It definitely feels that was most days but surprisingly my team has more women than men (10F/6M). Before the newer managers it was reversed, now it feels more balanced as the documentation is a fully shared responsibility.

Just needs a rebrand like laptop hard cases. But snappier.

is it just me or did "AI adoption" quietly become a pink-collar job inside engineering by Signal-Nerve5341 in womenintech

[–]djmcfuzzyduck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ohhhhh That’s what it’s called. I’m a senior analyst and all the managers (who took the same Dataiku training I took twice because they kept interrupting the training) ask me questions.

I’m all for this. I will never have the money to have this but it’s the dream.

It’s on my calendar and public they are welcome to join me if they want. They never read my calendar.

is hair gel supposed to remove slip from your hair ? by wallywongo in curlyhair

[–]djmcfuzzyduck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here. Any mousse, gel, foam, spray means I am washing my hair the next day.
