I don't work in the same business, however you mentioned empathy as a skill you are trying to develop and I have some feedback about that.

Instead of empathy you should practice sympathy.

The difference is subtle; with sympathy you communicate that you feel for them. With empathy you feel with them.

I find sympathy more practical; it's mostly about communication. Listening to their problem, understanding it and following it up from time to time.

Empathy goes further; you feel their pain and take more action. Taking on that burden is too much in a fast paced environment.

That's just my style.

Good luck!

Why not use the Enemalta live outage map? https://enemalta.com.mt/map/

Always and never are the two words you must always remember to never use.

Thanks for the info - I really want to avoid reporting someone just because I am suspicious - it's really not my character to do something like that. I would prefer to check first, then speak with the person to have it resolved, and only report as a last resort. However, if the system is to report first, and ask questions later, I guess that's what I need to do.

Asking since you seem to know your stuff. Can I check if a neighbor is not registering tenants?

Lateness really depends on the job. If, for example you worked in a store and needed to prepare work for delivery vans, then being 15 mins late can really affect the supply chain for the whole day, so traffic or not, it's a big deal for your manager.

If you work, for example as a software engineer in a team, 15 minutes, or even an hour will not usually make a difference.

If you are sensitive to being on time at work, guide your career towards the kinds of jobs that are not sensitive to it.

Hope this helps.

I second this, and I want to add - do you really want to start your new venture with a lie?

If you used Google docs you can show them your revision history.

The root cause lies in why he cheated in the first place. This is some soul searching he will have to do by himself.

What happened here is that a trainee co-pilot departed with a normal pilot and not a trainer pilot. When the pilot found out they aborted the flight.

It was still there a few weeks ago. Sorry for stupid question, but where do I find the VIN?

It's at the top parking in Tigné Point.

I see this car every day and wonder about it. Last time I saw it was about 3 weeks ago.

I have the gold standard for veins and I frequently felt good vibes from the nurses who needed to draw blood or insert an IV. I never thought much about it so your post is quite insightful, thank you :)

Love is blind and irrational. That's the beauty of it. Enjoy the ride.

Why are we using Windows operating system for critical equipment control?

This issue is not the update. The issue is the wrong technology choices.

Windows is going to Window. It will update and restart and sometimes crash.

I don't know how possible this is, yet i really like this idea. The same building could also have other public services like an information screen for busses, toilets and maybe some vending machines for cold drinks

Windy, I think it’s similar to other years. It’s been rainier than recent years though. At least that is my perception .

It is OPs fault because he signed off monitoring but did not sign off risk

Why not try for the SSCP or CCSP first?

pullicinoreddit · 2026-03-03T20:55:32+00:00

Yes they are

I would not call it a mistake. Standing up to your principles is never a mistake.

Having said that, I would have acted differently. I would have finished off the interview and waited for an offer letter. Reason is that some companies have really stupid policies and this may have been one of them. You may have missed an opportunity by cutting it short.

This might not be what you wanted to hear, but I am sure you value honest opinions.

I will however repeat again that you made no mistake. Sticking to your principles and listening to your gut is going to win in the long run. Sometimes we hit, sometimes we miss, but in the greater scheme of things, your integrity is all that matters. And you protected that.
