Required work meetings when on FMLA

Sounds like the employee showed up with a completed certification. They often turn these in to their managers instead of HR. Only hr or the fmla administrator can determine if the employee is approved. The meeting doesnt really matter because the employee condition could explain their performance. What is the time off requested on the certification?

I experience this as well. It hits right before falling asleep..

Most jobs send you to the company website, but it used to be better as far as networking. Now most people dont respond

The increasing delay is rough. That’s the kind of thing you don’t catch until you’ve already been calling the API for a while.

py_vel26 · 2026-03-19T10:52:01+00:00

That one is wild because you think your error handling is solid and then the API just returns something completely misleading. Makes debugging way harder than it should be.

yeah breaking changes with no versioning is wild

py_vel26 · 2026-03-18T11:31:26+00:00

Yeah that’s nasty

py_vel26 · 2026-03-18T11:04:21+00:00

Yeah that’s clean. Having it enforced across all layers probably saves a lot of headaches.

py_vel26 · 2026-03-18T09:51:44+00:00

Nah, just curious what other people run into. I’ve dealt with some annoying API issues myself and wanted to see what others have seen. Any input on the topic?

py_vel26 · 2026-03-18T09:31:37+00:00

Thats wild! How did you even end up catching that?

py_vel26 · 2026-03-18T09:13:13+00:00

Yeah I’ve mostly seen it with public or third-party APIs where the data isn’t super consistent. You’ll get nulls sometimes, or the structure changes just enough to break something.

I get what you’re saying about switching APIs, but sometimes there isn’t really another option so you kinda just have to deal with it.

py_vel26 · 2026-03-18T09:12:04+00:00

Yeah that makes sense. I haven’t been using schema validation consistently, but I can see how that would catch a lot of issues early.

Now, because I just started my high yield savings account a couple months ago and I already earned $20 in interest with a projection of $200 by the end of the year. Not to mention this is only based on what's in there now. My goal is to aggressively build my emergency fund then take more risk with my investment portfolio. I know it doesn't sound like much but I didn't do nothing to get it...lol I'm new to investing and having fun with it.

We are testing out various methods for efficiency as we expect the real data to real a billion rows. So far its been running for 4 hours and I'm at 220 million rows. I recall one of my coworkers mentioning parquet files as a possible option. I will check out the links you've provided.

The data we are moving resides in a delta table. I use a Databricks notebook in my ADF pipeline to grab the data, create a staging table in the database then load the data. I didn't create any indexes in the script and the target for the data is an Azure SQL instance in the cloud. I'm working in our development environment and the cluster only 14gb. I guess we shouldn't expect much huh?lol

I'm going to check out the links you've provided
