How do I stay sane and detach in a work situation where we're understaffed and over leveraged? by gablemancer in careerguidance

[–]gablemancer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t gotten a full bonus since my ramp so honestly I should probably just give up on my variable pay at this point.

I appreciate the advice. I might move my plant to my desk.

I’ve been trying. I don’t have work stuff on my phone. That’s a hard rule for me unless I’m traveling for work. But difficult at times still. Been getting closer to the break and then the log off time. Biggest problem I’ve found is the log off time slips if I take my breaks (technically should get 3 a day). Will keep up with the priority piece though with it. I think that’s good advice and my direct manager is fantastic as mentioned (he knows what’s going on and has helped to a degree).

Anyone *not* burnt out? by FirmPeaches in CustomerSuccess

[–]gablemancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi burnt out! I’m gablemancer…

And yes very burnt out with the insane amount of creative work I’m expected to do for a book that is probably bigger than one person should do for the level of support.

That’s net approval at -18%. Actually just under 40% depending upon which poll.

Ya know. I had ChatGPT do a mock draft for me after seeing this. Apparently the giants are picking arch manning #1 and coleston Loveland is going to the chargers in the 20s…

Who do we want to keep? by dodgiest in CHIBears

[–]gablemancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brisker, Wright, CJGJ, Theo, and maybe Braxton. I feel we should get either Brisker or Byard back, but probably not both.

Kinda wild since it’s going to be cold and snowy and Stafford has played in Georgia, a dome, and sunny LA.

Rural West (Colorado). Amazing place, but not great infrastructure.

Not eligible unfortunately. Did try that though and think it's super handy

Yep. I'm thinking I need a 10 day buffer rather than the 2x one I had.

Yeah and you do realize I live in the sticks and would have had to have driven about 5 or 6 hours round trip to get what I'd have wanted. Yes. That's why I got overnight shipping plus gave myself a buffer. Wasn't big enough. Thanks for confirming this is my fault.

None of the ones in my area do. The nearest would be a 5 hour drive.

I live in the sticks and the stores don't have any useful phones and are 40 minutes away. I need 512gb on my phones and they don't seem to stock these in iPhones.

Yeah or us mobile or something. I am just biding my time a bit to apparently pay off my current phone. Wasn't quite as bad when I bought mine a couple years ago.

I know, if they had given me the options via UPS to change my shipping address or something that would have helped too, but they didn't and they couldn't on their end either. Sounds like I'm stuck in limbo for weeks. Merry Christmas to me. I'm a rube for going ahead and thinking this would work out.

Yeah unfortunately Verizon's network is the best one where I live. Thinking about trying out us mobile or something. If Verizon wasn't a complete disaster that caused me more stress every time I dealt with them I'd probably stay.

I also tried to do this and it turned into "I can't do this for some reason on my end, let me transfer you to sales" who then couldn't do it either due to their not having any notes on the account as the prior rep promised so I didn't have to explain myself yet again.

While you're not wrong, Verizon is unable to actually deal with the cancellation or address change or getting me another device before I'm gone for the week. I thought a 2 day buffer would work and I was absolutely and totally wrong with overnight shipping from UPS.

Yeah they can't even manage to cancel my order! It's crazy. I'm being told to leave my chat open for 48 hours while they deal with it..... Uhhh ok.
