The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Mandatory monthly meeting with the CEO was on Friday and he spent the whole hour talking about how AI was the future of the company and how he really wanted us to push for it. To that end he had decided that Friday was going to be a hackathon where each department would spend the day brainstorming ideas of how AI can increase productivity and then by the end of the day submit them to the CEO. The next Friday would be the day for each department to act on those ideas and come up with some "great" and "productive" ideas.
Except he hadn't pre-warned any of the team leads or the scrum masters so everyone's sprints suddenly got a day shorter with this mandatory task.
As he hadn't bother to pre-warn anyone this meant that the only teams able to participate were the ones roughly in the same timezone as we'd all worked our contracted hours for the day so I got to log off and go enjoy my weekend.
I've come in this morning to absolute chaos in Slack as the engineering team were being incredibly passive aggressive about being taken off actual work. The opening salvo in the new channel was "I guess we're not working on tickets today so everyone make a note that this is why your stuff is late when the c-team ask about client-critical work next week." Then about 6 hours worth of arguing about what topic to choose and how we could bullshit our way to saying it's a good thing.
Timezones rule.
This series of posts increasingly sounds like your CEO is having a psychotic break.
Not only did we work today, last week they took away the chairs some of us had been using, because we're not supposed to have any.
Yes, I pointed out every excuse they gave was nonsense, and exactly why. No, that did not change anything.
For entirely unrelated and completely unforeseeable reasons I swear, my production ratio has fallen from 125% (exceeds) to 75% (minimum accepted). Very strange, indeed.

Today was our annual all-day staff development training. Kind of a mini conference just for our library system. The keynote speaker was an hour and a half presentation on libraries in the age of AI. The title included the word "disruption."
Imagine my relief when the speaker ended up being an experienced digital services librarian and the talk turned out to be heavily themed toward "Shit's fucked, in five years all these companies will be in the toilet except for the few use cases LLM turns out to be suited for, here's how to explain it to your patrons and keep them safe from the new Internet of Lies. Also, you should probably write an AI policy for your staff to follow so they don't end up feeding legally protected patron data into a corporate black box."
The first half hour had some really interesting bits about various other info tech upheavals since 1993 and how libraries dealt with them. Way more engaging than the usual bland motivational speakers we usually end up with for our keynotes.

I have a possibly fantastic job opportunity which a friend of mine tipped me off to. Problem is that the qualifications are all printing related, but he initially told me that i might be over qualified for it, which makes me think that some of those qualifications are over exaggerated? I mean, of course I applied, because almost $40 an hour to run a giant copy machine and join a union sounds fucking fantastic.
The posting doesn't close until the 23rd of this month so i have to go back to begging for money in the meantime while i try to scrape together money doing freelance stuff, but there's a little hope?
Last night was a brutal mess
I ended up doing all of yogurt. then the 97 wall [lunch meat and box lunches} after that I was asked again to help with vegetables
But in general this week was rough and the usual ivory tower of management

Have the AI pretend to be the CEO and prepare a 5 year plan for the company, then the board can just fire the CEO and increase their dividends for the next 5 years.
That exact thought popped into my head and that was when I was truly thankful that I could log off instead of sabotaging my career by feeding all the CEO's emails into ChatGPT and getting it to pretend to be him.
"Hey ChatGPT, writing as my CEO, draft me 10 unhinged emails over the course of a Sunday extolling the virtues of some mind-bogglingly tedious listicles generated by a plagiarism machine to the detriment of the world's fragile resources."
In other news I've got a message from my lead about the SVP that seems to hate me. Apparently the SVP has been trying to contact me about another project and is blaming the lateness of that project on the fact that he can't get through to me and decided to take it out on my lead. This is the second project that he's blaming on me for running late. I've got a chat scheduled with my lead and based on the outcomes of that will be asking IT to take a look and see if there's any issues with our communication. How do you get to be SVP of engineering and not know how to work Slack / a gmail company address book I don't know but I guess I'll find out?

As well it should, and I hope your work colleagues are following suit! Fuck them, if they are not going to respect basic safety considerations or hell, basic human decency, they are not entitled to your discretionary effort
I had four voicemail messages this morning and none of them require a call back. They were all "we've done what you asked, if you need to give me a call for some reason my number is..."
When I was in manufacturing we used to do a team building at the big golf driving range thing across from the corporate headquarters. We were all blue collar assholes with high functioning alcoholism who could throw back some beer and rack up a fuckin tab on appetizers and burgers and stuff. Plus we could all say cusses as much as we wanted.
Well, I guess my new office team is doing a team building day at the same golf thing and its... just not gonna be the same, man. I gotta be all presentable and shit and not drink 100 beers, exactly. Plus like, my boss is a mom of five and my assistant manager is a Disney Adult and I just don't know how to interact with them in any other setting than an office.

Jugs, I am really thinking about following your example and getting out of manufacturing. My patience with being the only truly competent person in my work cell is long gone, and doing this is slowly killing me.
How's your working experience been since you changed that up?

Homie I gotta tell ya straight
I wish I had the opportunity to do this years ago. I actually really do appreciate my time working in the shit because it gave me a certain work ethic and competency that is surprisingly rare. I also can appreciate more what I'm doing because of what I did. But the toll it takes on your body is disastrous, especially if you do swings like I did.
There are downsides like every job. Some things are menial, annoying or frustrating. I sit too much these days. Constantly having to be in meetings that don't really involve me can be tedious. But also I'm not operating off 3 hours of sleep, work 14+ hour shifts, having to literally clean my own blood off the floor, or some combination of all three of those things any more.
I still keep the last pair of gloves I wore on my last shift in a little shadow box at my desk to remind me it could be WAY worse than sending an email to an airhead.
Ignore the empty terrarium thing. I'm still trying to figure out what to put in it. I don't think I want to do a succulent, I kinda want to put a little Ultramarine eviscerating a tyranid in it. Anyway, I got lucky and made the move within my own company, so I retained my tenure and benefits. I don't know if that's a possibility for you but if so, go for it. 100%.

Like, at the moment my one hope here is that I get picked to be the lone guy in charge of the big fancy new machine that we're getting by the end of the year. Because I like what I do, to some degree! Tinkering with stuff and keeping my hands busy is extremely satisfying, especially when it culminates in damn near close to perfection when the resulting work gets measured and checked.
I just don't know how much longer I can do this as part of a team that, almost every single day, validates my coming-in-to-work attitude of "Okay, what do I have to fix or re-do today." I swear, some people just don't have red flags pop up in their head and that baffles me.
this is more of a petty complaint than anything, but our ticket queue is completely dead, absolutely no work to pick up or help with and it's been that way for like two weeks. I have exactly 4 open tickets, two of which are done and just waiting for the user to be available for hardware handoff, and two of which have users that just haven't bothered replying in 1-2 weeks with nothing I can really do on my end.
it's also mid-semester break this week so things aren't exactly gonna be picking up anytime soon. having nothing to do at work is fine for the first couple days but man I'd like to feel like I'm doing something to earn my pay (and doing nothing for however long sure ain't gonna help when I want to move on to a better position here)
luckily I can put on twitch or youtube or whatever but I really need to find something a little more personally productive to do or something
One of our new clients has a team watching it that smashes the dispatch quest button like the tts heresy scene
While chastizing them for irrelevant quests was annoying, what was more annoying was a problematic teammate inferring the most bullshit reasoning from the messages the boss had left.
what boss meant:Stop sending quests for mofos cutting through the parking lot
what problem child inferred:The fiends are empowered by dark treaties and are allowed to pillage the land
What I thought:The fuck is wrong with you?
literally got sent out this morning because Bob pressed against the glass to see if there was anyone inside
edit:
speaking of more idiots, caretakers of non-verbal child on the spectrum with headphones let said child stand in the street while they stood on the sidewalk, directing traffic and acted like i did something wrong for being upset.
after a curve, come round the curve, there's a child. this is the slower exit lane next a much faster through lane.
all dull colors on the adults, the girl behind them and the headphone child

Oh hey, some more writing on the wall about my workplace, today.
We had a power outage yesterday for a good chunk of time, and as a result they sent A Shift home slightly early and told B Shift not to come in. In the past, they've compensated people for the time missed that was beyond their individual control.
And today, they put out a company-wide announcement that people were free to either make up the hours or put in PTO for that lost time, but wouldn't hold it against anyone from a disciplinary standpoint if they're short on hours this week.

The thing about the tinkering is you could maybe have more energy in the evening to do your *own* tinkering
Get into 3D printing, at-home carpentry hobby, etc
I don't love the pure documentation tier of what I'm doing right now, but it does mean all my creative energy is going to things I'm making simply to be happy, so that's nice
It is not a good thing when the Powers That Be answer a question about how to resolve a fuckup with confusion because you've been doing things so completely wrong that there should have never been an opportunity to fuck up a particular thing.
I'm not the one in the crosshairs here, just enjoying the Cc'd bystander view.

It's funny you say this, because that's exactly the kind of thing that I've been trying to get myself to do life-improvement-wise. I'm rather tired of, well, being tired and not having the mental energy to do anything after I get home for the day.
I've been searching for a good hobby to really catch my attention for awhile. Maybe that's less about nothing seeming to draw me in, and more about not having enough of my soul left in me in the evenings to feel that way. It's like I've been stuck in a weird cycle of blandness.

additionally, one of the caretakers dared me to call the police (insert memory of news footage Florida caretaker getting shot by police sniper), which was just infuriating

Jesus Christ I've worked the same call centre job since 2017
Covid happened and they threw a pc at me and said work from home so I did and recently they've started really pushing for people to start coming back to the office again
Problem is I've moved several hours away from the office and it's a real pain in the ass to get in more than a few days a month
Now that we've been taken over by a very large corporate entity their hardline policy as of Jan 1st is three days a week in office no ifs or buts
So I am looking for new work because I don't want to spent fifteen fucking hours a week commuting to a 40 hour job
I dislike performance review season and I double dislike writing reviews for people who think they're better at their jobs than they are and I triple dislike those reviews when the people in question are actually relatively high performing so gently pointing out where their areas of improvement are is all the more challenging.
