Oh honey, no. Even stuff like All Your Base and Mike Tyson Ate My Balls were at least the iron age. The stone age was Usenet lore like the SPISPOPD FAQ.
Depending on the state you should still be paid overtime. The only exceptions are the really high paid executives and ceos. Mostly because they already get crazy bonuses for doing nothing.
Hell no. I’ve been salaried and I’ve been hourly. I am more than willing to put in a few 50-55 or so hour weeks a year in exchange for being able to come in late or leave early for appointments without trouble, working about 35 hours a week every other week at most, being able to work from home more or less whenever I need to, never getting flagged for not clocking in/out at the right time… the list goes on and on. My salary is for 40 hour weeks, and I hold to that when I need to. But the reality of my job is that when there’s a crisis I need to be there. I’ll take that for all the advantages any day.
What? Where do you work that you get paid for 40 hours while working and clocked in for 32 and also get to be clocked in while you’re not there? I have a fantastic boss and do not let myself get pushed around.
Can someone please tell me why so many reports are still done manually? Even developing a report in excel would take only a day if you know what you’re doing, and much less if you’re using software made for reporting.
There’s your problem. The average Lemmy use is far more capable with computers than the average meatbag-in-a-suit and, most importantly, knows how to find info on the Internet when he doesn’t know.
Y’all don’t know/remember the struggle. My “apps” used to be 2 or 3 forums – and not particularly active forums, at that – that I would check repeatedly, all day long, during downtime at work. Posts and comments were rare.
I don’t even understand why people want to look at phone apps all day. I hate browsing the Internet on a phone screen usually, it’s so inferior to having a monitor, mouse, and keyboard.
I mean if you’re at work or whatever and you’re bored, I can see wasting time on phone apps, but any other time I don’t. But of course if you don’t have a computer you can’t just use the computer you don’t have.
It’s much easier to use touch than a mouse? Swipe keyboard are almost faster. And apps are just a more minimalist version of a desktop site. All the content, none of the clutter. I despised Reddit on my laptop.
Ah yes the ‘hi guys I have a problem with this program and it’s doing this any solutions?’ And then you would have a reply maybe in a week or with bad luck a month. I’d usually just go to a IRC chatroom and ask it there.
Even worse when you see every post incremented by one or more. Either a racist troll had stumbled their way in or an ad-bot was spam posting. Either way, took a few days for the mods to get around to cleaning it up. Passwords for every board was the only way to slow it down. They were not the good old days.
