Isn’t this pretty much everyone? I set an alarm for midnight to go to bed, I do one more thing (not even game related), and suddenly, the sun is coming up.
Just let me finish up this war in Stellaris- (new, cool situation event chain starts) Ooh, shiny! (Gets flooded with 10 more story notifications about new anomalies and log entries)
(Can literally pause, save and exit WHENEVER I WANT and all recent progress would still be saved)
Sleep is a DPS loss. Keep a bottle of caffeine pills so when you’re in the slow part of your rotation, you can pop a couple. Also remember to keep your empty 2 liters on hand, you can recycle them into piss bottles.
And it’s time to move up to a standing desk. Gotta keep the deep vein thrombosis away, after all.
Normally, there are plugs labeled for critical equipment (as in, they’re connected to the generators even if the power goes out). But yeah, everything non-essential is kinda down.
You still absolutely need to go check your equipment during a power outage, and make sure your “critical” stuff is plugged into the “generator outlets”. There’s battery power on (pretty much) all critical equipment, so you have a buffer.
I personally don’t rely on batteries being my backup, and keep my critical stuff plugged into the labeled outlets… but you still gotta check; and deal with power being out for everything else
Not “regular outages” where I’ve worked, but natural disasters and such can happen. Back-up generators run things, but ya still gotta make sure your equipment is plugged into the “generator supplied” outlets.
But now the employees don’t have AC and such. And than the networks are down, so you have to paper-chart everything and the orders get slowed up and… it’s a whole thing. Not the end of the world if you know what you’re doing, but it can be dangerous if people don’t pay attention. It just makes it a bit more stressful to do your job well
I had forgotten that the larvae jump. For some reason that makes it so, so much worse to me. If I were to eat an arthropod-originating cheese I would probably prefer to try mite cheese.
For me, it was a matter of how much I liked my coworkers. Technically I had a small office but we all (except HR and group exec) worked from open cubes, had plenty of huddle rooms, and those of us assigned offices left them free for all to use as huddle rooms or group call rooms.
It was just a good atmosphere. Hybrid model. Ping pong an hour a day, which near everyone participated in. And tea time we all took very seriously.
Covid and acquisition, in no particular order, made that office go away. I’m remote now, and have been for years. I would go back there in a heartbeat.
Random rant. But miss that crew. We still meet for a beer once in a while, though I’m no longer working there and a lot of us moved out of state. Virtual happy hour is actually fun when you like the people on there.
