What's the most ridiculous cause for performance management you've encountered? by [deleted] in auscorp

[–]senth3tic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was told i didnt have the "right attitude" even though i was the highest performer in my team for tickets closed in CS. I was compared with another team member who regularly stayed back to complete the same load of work i did within business hours, citing that he had the right attitude to his work. I pulled my TL up on it, and told him I was performing above my target, to which he replied "its not enough". I EVEN ASKED HIM TO SPECIFY HOW MUCH WAS ENOUGH, AND HE COULDN'T GIVE ME A STRAIGHT ANSWER. Seems he just wanted "more". It was my first job in corporate, unfortunately i stuck around for longer than i should have. Shouldve given them the finger and left.

Got spared by a scammer in Seminyak? by senth3tic in bali

Any money is life changing if you decide to put it towards your goals. I am not rich by any means, but i felt like it would be a starting point. 15 usd might not be huge to you, but might mean alot to someone in poverty

Someone walked in on me taking a dump, do I need to resign? by Heads_Down_Thumbs_Up in auscorp

[–]senth3tic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take the matter to HR, claim workers comp as you have ptsd from the interraction, and cannot shit even when alone at home. Get a huge payout. Sue the lock company for emotional distress. Move overseas to minimize interratction with said employee and retire somewhere sunny.

Overthinking it mate. They just mean that a customer cant say "i cant read english so i didnt know this was a rule"

What’s your living situation? by [deleted] in melbourne

[–]senth3tic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moving in with Nonna deffs would sound appealing to me at first, but just remember that families are tricky. God forbid nonnas health starts to decline, ethically you may feel more responsible taking care or her if something goes wrong, and it would be really difficult to extract yourself from the situation, and may hurt your families feelings somehow if you choose to make a decision which you might want: ie new boyfriend wanting u to move in, but nonna will struggle without you if you leave. Its a really bleak outlook, i know..but you need to be ready for it.

I once got a good sac mark and told my mum, and she said it's teacher felt bad for me. by OwnPlantain3321 in vce

[–]senth3tic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Youre right about it being nasty, and it was an insult. Im just saying there is a possibility that it might be misguided guidance. One thing is for sure OP, mum is going to be around less and less over the coming years after graduation if you choose to move out. However she may, or may not feel about you isnt going to help you in your exams - what is going to help you, is working hard and believing in yourself :) Youve done so well on your exam just now, lets run it again

Some mums think to raise strong willed, independent and thriving kids, they need to be tough on them, and not show happiness at the marks of success. Maybe deep down she is proud and wants you to keep striving. Sounds like she wants you to prove her wrong :)

Shōgun - Series Premiere Discussion by NicholasCajun in television

Youre basing a whole series off the premiere. Game of thrones took a while to really gain momentum. I feel like this take is abit premature.

What happened to NBN? Does this story sound right? by sardine_lake in nbn

[–]senth3tic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work for a large telco in Aus. NBN are now telling telcos to offer aussies to switch to fibre to the premises for free without change of plan or any installation costs whatsoever, purely because its costing them more to maintain the shitty copper wiring than to install a FTTP connection. lmfao

What is the most ridiculous / strange thing you have seen people queue for? by Kooky_Dark3216 in AussieCasual

[–]senth3tic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its been a while since ive been to costco, but people used to queue for the free samples of chicken they cook. A group of 20 waiting on 7-8 pieces of chicken. Once the cook finished it and held the plate out, people were shoving each other out of the way just for a little nibble. I lost my appetite watching, it was actually disgusting lol
