New job is going good. I'm mostly doing busy work because a surprise audit fell on this week.
They also send a weekly email with open positions out to all employees, and of course an angry level info sec job gets posted. Oh well, I still have over a year in my graduate program. I'm ok biding my time and doing more broad security work
As someone whose job is tangential to infosec, I am all about the phrase "angry level job"

Ugh, I don’t think they took my requests for an assistant as seriously as I need them to. While it’s kind of flattering that they think I can do this all myself it’s also frustrating that they don’t consider that maybe, just maybe, accounting for 5+ stores is more than a one-person job.
You may need to invest some time showing them how things are going to slip if you keep trying to do this all yourself. Eg. "If we don't get an assistant, there will be X months backlog after Y months."
Because that's the kind of thing that will just compound.

This is absolutely the same trick as the "baby brought you a gift!" Thing parents do to engratiate older siblings to a newborn. But that's great because it totally works! Associating the new person with getting free food is a great idea that I'm stealing.
I'm legitimately afraid that if I tried this, my circ clerks would pick up on the pattern and start actively driving off new hires to increase the frequency of free lunches.

I got to watch the most hilarious bit of passive aggressive peevishness today.
We have adjustable sit/stand desks.
Coworker A likes to hover and sit on your desk or get weirdly close to you to watch what you're doing on your monitor.
Coworker B got annoyed by this and hit the automatic raise on his desk which raised the desk up, and raised the corner of the desk up into coworker A's crotch.
The desks stop when they hit some resistance, but based on coworker A's reaction, it's not that fast.

When I worked at Isuzu as a technician this was how performance bonuses worked.
If you made hours (got work done in under the factory-specified time) you got paid your hourly rate for the time you made up, so you'd tell your workmates the new process you figured out, and it would get refined by the group as different people interacted with the problem and solution in different ways. As soon as multiple people regularly beat times on a common job though, they ignored the factory-specified time and went with the new average.
So if you figured out a way to get a repair/maintenance job done quicker than the factory said it could be done, you made a few bucks. Then the new faster time became the standard, and the reward you got for making the company extra profits just disappeared.

At my last job we had a crisis week where I had to recheck an entire project for another team because though their system backed our project, they hadn't communicated their changes to us at all, and as expected... they fucked up a bunch of stuff having to do with our product.
I figured, "well sometimes this shit happens". So I pulled a bleach, released the limiters, and went full bore mythical QA robot for the week, logged 80 hours that felt more like 120 hours because it included at least 1all nighter to get the project to hit its releases date, but I essentially railed through a regression of my system in less than a week.
Bout 2 weeks later my boss tried to tell me they wanted that kinda output at all times, but that they also weren't necessarily asking me to work more hours... congratulations to that guy, he got the last fuckin time I ever do that shit for basically anyone.
Now if you come to me with a project we've never discussed that needs to be finished before the end of the week you brought it too me... it goes to the bottom of the list, and if you try to tell your boss its my fault... I'm just gonna throw you straight under the bus for not properly communicating with the necessary parties in the planning stages. That's a managerial fuck up, not a QA fuck up. Trying to fast track it, and resultantly missing defects would be a QA fuck up.
Because if I kill myself for a week to save the team, it just means the team now expects me to kill myself for them all the time as a baseline.
Apparently the flaw in the scotty logic is that even if you do perform miracles when it counts, everyone just expects miracles all the time moving forward.

Company I interviewed for nearly 2 months ago finally turned up again, wanting to 'move forward'. I, however, have moved all the way on, because fuck 'em. I guess I have to communicate this to them somehow.
Ugh, even ignoring this is killing my productivity. All I want to do is go sit in a park with an iced chai and pretend capitalism doesn't exist.
edit: They want to know "my salary range expectations." The only reason I even wanted to hear from them again was to find out what they thought I was worth, so I'm wondering if "I dunno, you tell me" is going to get a sensible response.
13 years ago now my dad booked us the cheapest hotel room in Copenhagen, which was a room with two twin beds literally 6 inches apart (and each bed was against the wall), so the room was probably no more than 7 ft x 8 ft. The en-suite bathroom was the size of a toilet; the shower was situated over the toilet and the whole room was waterproofed, so it was a single stall. The cost was around $250/night as I recall. Probably $300+ now.

I think this one is chiefly on the director - apparently he had to sign off on the process and he fucked off out of the country for two months (after pressuring me in the interview about starting dates!).
Their HR is kind of crap too, but for other reasons.

The idea of showering into a toilet is something that I can't find many practical objections to, but still makes me want to scream myself hoarse.

That sounds about right! I've found that getting a hostel and buddying up is the best way to go but that only really works if you know a couple of people really really well.

Apart from being a long day, I'm also now in a position (that we don't actually know the name of, but it'll end up being something like Logistics Analyst) where I have my fingers both in supply and sales, so both the airplane fuel coming in at one end of the chain and what's being pumped into planes at the other end, as well as being part of an IT project with our new Operations guy to implement a new Ops system. So that's fun.
And when my boss said that we'd all gotten a nice bonus this year and I kinda shook my head because I'm still just a temp and, hah, no, he amended it to "will all have gotten". So that's nice.

I would have trouble not throwing a stupidly absurd number at them that would cover breaking my lease (sign on bonus) and also being downright ridiculous that no one in their right mind would be okay with (like 300k+).

I mean the first half he's never steered me wrong on... never tell the captain how long the job actually takes, you'll never get anything done that way. You've gotta pad your estimates.
However apparently when the heat is on and the captain needs a miracle you just eject yourself from the starship and watch it burn because if you save them they will only learn that you could do way more if we treat standard maneuvers like a full red alert scenario.
On the one hand, having a lot of recruiters that want to talk to you isn't a bad thing. But I agreed to do some phone screens a few weeks ago but I just really, really haven't had time to prep for them. I keep having to tell them I haven't had time to prepare and I don't want to schedule the phone screen yet. I kinda feel bad about having to do so but I can't think of much else to do at the moment.
I am not sure if this is a proper thread to write something like this, but eh, sorry if that's the case.

I studied and finished law at university, but only after all this time I decided that actually I do not want to be a lawyer / judge / prosecutor, and I am terrified at the thought of ever trying to become one (le's be honest, I have problems with dealing with stress). My current job is pretty stress free and it is something that I am at least 7/10 good at, but salary is definitely not great if I ever want to live by myself, instead of renting a room in a flat shared with 3 other people.
I wonder about returning to university and learning IT / programming (lectures would be every second weekend), but I am afraid that it would be a repetition of my failure with studying law - I do not know if it is something I would be good at or I would enjoy doing, it is just something I would have to make myself to learn, because I am afraid that If I will not do something with myself soon, then it will be too late for me to ever be successfull.
Does anyone here have any advice, if starting to learn something new like this is a good idea in my situation, considering that it would require a huge amount of time and money, that I do not have that much (even though at least I have some savings for a occasion like this) in a first place?
