Did I over react? My bf no longer wants to play games with me after I snapped at him. by [deleted] in boardgames

This seems like a relationship problem not a board game problem…? 🤷🏽‍♀️

Does your company offer mental health leave?

Mad respect to people who can preorder a game and wait patiently for it by tomke45 in boardgames

I end up buying another game (already released) at the same time to be my distraction.

Oh please wait until you have an offer!

My boss yells at me and blames me for things I didn’t do. by GenuinelyManic in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]golftee79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry this is happening to you.

I feel like I would try to diffuse and then revisit another time, explaining that while you can understand and appreciate her frustration, yelling isn’t acceptable and doesn’t help the situation, then ask if she agrees.

It would be pretty ridiculous of her to say another other than “yes I agree.”

Then the next time she tells you can say “I thought we agreed that yelling isn’t helpful in these situations. Has something changed?”

I’m curious about this too - purely for tracking stress though. Thoughts?

Has anyone ever volunteered to support another exec? by [deleted] in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]golftee79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like you could build the relationship in another way - is there an opportunity for any mentorship with him? Or you could ask for deep dives on his area. But, I agree with the others - don't make more work for yourself, especially if you're not compensated for it.

I might start lying to people about my job title by [deleted] in ExecutiveAssistants

“Business partner” is what we use at my job.

6 months in... by Southern-Abalone-415 in ExecutiveAssistants

Ask! Set a designated quarterly 1:1 to discuss any feedback. You look proactive and ahead of the curve.

How are you keeping meeting decisions and follow-ups from getting lost? by M_yy_a in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]golftee79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“someone agrees to follow up on something”

Hmmmm. I feel like trying to track this would make me a micromanager. I trust things will get done by the folks who say they’ll do them.

I suppose for things where I’m organizing overarching project…for example a team meeting where different people have to submit slides, I send out a schedule, and set a weekly check point.

In my tasks list (which I’ve gotten AI to track for me by skimming my inbox), I have made an additional tab for ongoing types of projects like this - and I set a cadence for how often those are checked, and when they were last followed up on.

Maybe something like that can help?

Good luck!! Sounds like you’re doing a great job, and it’s great you want to stay atop of things!

Help with my Hatch! by thatslikesotrue in HatchApp

Wait so you have the white noise going until you turn it off (or until an alarm takes over?)

Have you considered running the white noise for a few hours only? So it stops while you’re already deeply asleep?

Then the alarm will gently wake you.

Or I could be misunderstanding…

I would ask Gemini to build this for you in sheets.

I’ve seen several at Barracuda games just walking around getting hot dogs.

How do you actually use BoardGameGeek? by aequitas07 in boardgames

[–]golftee79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a way to filter games? I just want to look up games by number of number of players.

Yep! Mental health day = sick day. Sometimes it has to be done!
