It is amazing the games employers will pay. I am under no illusion there, and I keep my stuff close to the chest. I would say my big gripe is that there is no standard of excellence. No one is expected to improve. The good employees are supposed to drag lazy dumb asses on their coattails to be a "team player" and spoon feed them because they don't (cant) figure out how to get their work done without a LOT of help. And when held accountable it is a whine fest and I dont understand the workload. Literally the worker with a masters and a certification this am reminded me to do the database for reporting and that I was late...ummm the database is done and has been for a week.... you ingest your own data...I am not doing it for you. This is the same person who blamed me that she was out of the loop and refuses to go to the manager for clarification on her needs .......
Oh, FFS! When I was in graduate school, I used to look around at some of the useless wonders like this. I figured if they could get through it, I could, too. 🙄😤
 
That's right! I'm the bitch mother of all the bitches. (She says softly and sweetly!) 🤣🤣🤣
I am sweet til I have to unleash the er nurse locked inside. I keep her chained up til I need her...she is a bitch and can slice a person to ribbons with a look and 3 words and leave you crying in the corner...... wink and offers a freshly baked cookie
 
There seems to be a few gun enthusiasts here. Are you more into collecting, recreational shooting, or hunting? I hope this question doesn’t violate the thread rules.
Only thread rules are
1. No religion
2. No politics
3. Private convos that are spicy or are for a hook up belong in a dm....

We are a peaceful group and we don't want to deal with drama bs.....

Welcome..I qm sure a couple of folks will be reaching out

Thank you for the welcome and clarification. I’ve followed this thread for a while and I appreciate the camaraderie here.
 
Morning afternoon and night all!

Been super busy with my day job and all kinds of other stuff.

When I get a chance over the weekend, I’ll have to catch up on this thread - hope I didn’t miss too much! There’s always a bit of chaos, fun, banter, wordplay… did I mention chaos??

This thread reminds me of the chase scene at the end of The Blues Brothers!

(the best comedy of all time, the best musical of all time, the best movie of all time!)

Question of the day: what is your all-time favorite movie if you can narrow it down to one?

“ look, disco pants, and haircuts!”

It’s Friday!!
IDK if I can narrow it down to one movie, W! I love Mel Brooks movies. My favorite one of his is Spaceballs. I know almost every line! 🤣🤣

My favorite movie from my childhood is Camelot.

Another favorite is That Thing You Do.

I have the DVDs of all three!
 
Masters means nothing! Employers get sucked in by it without realising they are employing a dumb ass. The fact is until you put someone in the job, monitor them, assess them and deal with under performance you never get a good person in the right job.

I have managed, teams, divisions, and individuals. You have to be ruthless as a manager but a lot don’t have the bottle and consequently lose the good staff.

Sorry you feel like this and I am not trying to be harsh but the answer is in your own hands…..walk if you can it’s the only way you will effect change in your employment life.

Good luck and having been where you are I empathise!
Hey, G! Not all of us with advanced degrees are dumb asses! That said, I can be sometimes book smart and street stupid. 🙄🤣
