| schestowitz | a colleague of mine e upset me today | Oct 03 00:30 |
|---|---|---|
| schestowitz | Had high expectations of my pace | Oct 03 00:30 |
| schestowitz | He might now know that in one month of work I spend the number of hours some people spend in a week (averaging 50) | Oct 03 00:31 |
| schestowitz | I bloody hate office politicis | Oct 03 00:31 |
| schestowitz | If this was a full-time job, the pace of progress would have been (at least) quadrupled. | Oct 03 00:35 |
| schestowitz | Some people spend all their life on a job | Oct 03 00:35 |
| schestowitz | even working on their phone | Oct 03 00:35 |
| schestowitz | work not as in hobby but making money | Oct 03 00:35 |
| schestowitz | and they soemtimes expect others to do the same | Oct 03 00:35 |
| schestowitz | which I think is unreasonable | Oct 03 00:35 |
| oiaohm | If they are willing to pay for it they can get it. | Oct 03 01:49 |
| oiaohm | The big issue I run into schestowitz is boss who attempted to expect me todo over time for nothing. | Oct 03 01:49 |
| oiaohm | Of course I can understand a boss being upset if it turned out you had been paid todo nothing. | Oct 03 01:50 |
| oiaohm | Yes I had one of those jobs at one point where I was paid really todo nothing. | Oct 03 01:51 |
| oiaohm | I did not have the secuirty clearnced to work on the filing cabnets yet I was cleared to look after the server where copies of all the data was stored. | Oct 03 01:52 |
| oiaohm | Yes kinda insane. | Oct 03 01:52 |
| oiaohm | BOSS kind got that changed fairly quickly so I could be there to repair server if it failed and be checking records. | Oct 03 01:52 |
| oiaohm | Ie 2 people being paid todo the job that should have been 1. | Oct 03 01:53 |
| schestowitz | among people I know: | Oct 03 01:53 |
| schestowitz | seems like most work overimt eof no extra pay | Oct 03 01:53 |
| schestowitz | and not to mention dressing up and travel | Oct 03 01:53 |
| schestowitz | which also takes time | Oct 03 01:53 |
| schestowitz | one has to just assume a 40-hour (a week) job might actually be a net | Oct 03 01:54 |
| schestowitz | and gross is about 60 | Oct 03 01:54 |
| oiaohm | I am very particular that I don't like driving at night. | Oct 03 01:54 |
| schestowitz | When the jobs market is poor, employers can raise thr # of hours and get away with it | Oct 03 01:54 |
| schestowitz | oiaohm: dirivng at night is always unsafe | Oct 03 01:54 |
| schestowitz | anyway, speaking of night | Oct 03 01:55 |
| schestowitz | 2sm here, time for bed. | Oct 03 01:55 |
| schestowitz | 2am here, time for bed. | Oct 03 01:55 |
| oiaohm | Yep particularlly when you are going to alocation with secure records | Oct 03 01:55 |
| oiaohm | Alone. | Oct 03 01:55 |
| oiaohm | Not heathly idea. | Oct 03 01:55 |
| oiaohm | Ie lot of my jobs overtime when no one else will be there is insnae. | Oct 03 01:55 |
| schestowitz | Now I rsync my web server, it slaughters my hdd (io) | Oct 03 01:57 |
| schestowitz | can't work like that | Oct 03 01:57 |
| schestowitz | oiaohm: best if you can work from home | Oct 03 01:58 |
| schestowitz | I managed to make all my jobs home-bound | Oct 03 01:58 |
| schestowitz | 4 or 5 jobs | Oct 03 01:58 |
| schestowitz | ssh dependent though, so can't work when connection is down unless I use mobile broadband for fallback | Oct 03 01:58 |
| oiaohm | schestowitz: hardware fails you kinda have to go visit when you are the tech that has to replace it. | Oct 03 01:58 |
| oiaohm | But with enough reduncy you can choose a suitable time | Oct 03 01:59 |
| *oiaohm has quit (Quit: by all) | Oct 03 02:06 | |
| qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: impressive | Oct 03 02:15 |
| qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: i'd rather be working from home | Oct 03 02:15 |
| qu1j0t3 | i was before, but the project sucked | Oct 03 02:15 |
| qu1j0t3 | 'According to SEC filings, MSFT insiders sold 117.3 million shares in the last reporting period. In the same period institutional holders sold 81.5 million. Which seems to suggest that professional investors see more value in Microsoft than the company's executives. | Oct 03 04:54 |
| qu1j0t3 | 'With 40% net profits and a monopoly position in the market don't be surprised if success at MS is determined by politics and internal optics. If you ever worked at ATT or IBM in their monopoly days you would have more realistic expectations. Find a way to make this work for you and don't expect it to change until it all comes crashing down at which point we will all have much worse | Oct 03 05:17 |
| qu1j0t3 | problems then our own frustrations. | Oct 03 05:17 |
