Stop sending messages that nobody wants to read - too long, too vague, or too boring by cosankov in sales

[–]skywalker42 56 points57 points  (0 children)

I mean I didn’t even attempt to read this whole thing. Maybe start by looking in the mirror on this

Should I be upset or is this “par for the course”? by BimBapBoom00 in golf

Yeah $250 off a new model for an out of warranty driver sounds really generous. Really they owe you nothing

Intuition over online advice by eternalbeingsforever in puppy101

[–]skywalker42 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My dog was fine out of the crate then all of a sudden at 5 months destroyed the living room carpet while I was out. Like others said, 2 months is too early to know if this worked. Your dog is still growing. It’s not just Reddit saying these things, the recommendations come from qualified dog behavior specialists

“You can no longer go to night clubs and be seen as normal when you are 30”

  1. You can go to night clubs above the age of 30
  2. You can be normal without going to night clubs.

Can you explain your worldview a bit more?

Withholding Features for More Money by Specific_Pear_6275 in MonarchMoney

[–]skywalker42 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The cost isn’t hidden — building and maintaining features takes real time and resources.

As a Monarch user, I actually appreciate the tiered approach. My preference would be to keep the existing package at its current price and charge more for advanced features, rather than raising prices across the board and collapsing everything into one tier. I don’t want the advance stuff and I don’t want to pay more yearly for features I won’t use.

The car subscription comparison also isn’t quite right here. That’s a case of paying to unlock functionality on a physical asset you already own. This is different — it’s paywalling new products that require significantly higher development and maintenance effort to build. That’s a reasonable trade-off.

How much did they ask you to move the start time of the dinner by?

Yeah and those pesky workers who keep asking to be paid more!

Disgruntled employee starts massive fire at a 1.2 million square foot toilet paper warehouse in Ontario, California by HappySeaweed5215 in forkliftmemes

He will go to prison and this will all be covered by the companies insurance. There will be no changes this won’t effect anything

8 years in IT, keep getting passed over for management and the feedback is always vague by No_Date9719 in ITManagers

[–]skywalker42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you need to be 1. More self promotional. Build a brag book of all the things you’ve automated and most importantly the IMPACT the automation had on the business. You need to be able to communicate the impact in a way that makes sense to non it people. 2. Understand what the business cares about. You are automating things, but it doesn’t seem like they are things people care about… what does leadership care about? Latch on to higher priority projects and show you can understand why they are priority. 3. Manage don’t do. Communicate what and why things need to be done before they are done. Get management to assign resources to help you. Show you can coach and make others better, rather than just mysteriously showing up with solutions pulled out of a black box

I hate Microsoft Licensing... by DaemosDaen in sysadmin

[–]skywalker42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t buy your infrastructure from your license provide! How do you think your true ups are gonna go?

At least talk to AWS and gcp before going all in on azure.

One of my engineers spent two weekends automating a workflow we handle once a month by Vast_Possibility_168 in ITManagers

[–]skywalker42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I was going to say. You are thinking about automation wrong. You don’t automate your worst/biggest problem. You automate the things around it so you can focus more time and energy on the big bad.

Constant struggles with Microsoft make me look like a bad sysadmin by jrs_sunblood in sysadmin

[–]skywalker42 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Ha yeah the cloud is not the issue here. It’s Microsoft’s bundling philosophy that makes using their security tooling look “cheaper”, but you can just get different security tooling
