Nice but feel like it’s missing a syllable

My partner literally had to send her mother our budget and attached bank statements to illustrate how we could struggle to pay the bills even with 3 jobs between the 2 of us.

I will say she finally got it - that you can work hard and scrimp and save, and still come up short.

I mean most likely, but I haven’t checked my bank balance in a while so can’t be 100% certain

You’re not getting it. The listening is the help

pomodoro_longbreak,
@pomodoro_longbreak@sh.itjust.works avatar

Thank you, yeah it’s like sometimes you just have to work through it before you hear some suggestions.

Also known as being a good listener. Ideally it goes back and forth, too. But there’s a time and a place for everyone to take on the listener/encourager role.

Man I don’t regret leaving this behind at my last job. You start out by doing someone a one-off like “sure I can pull the top 5 promotional GICs broken down by region for your blog article - I love supporting my co-workers!”

Then requests become increasingly esoteric and arcane, and insistent.

You try to build a simple FE to expose the data for them, but you can’t get the time approved so you either have to do it with OT or good ol’ time theft, and even then there’s no replacement for just writing SQL, so you’ll always be their silver bullet.

If it’s regular, I recommend cron + mailutils. Have the cron job call a script with a variable sleep in it if you want to make it look more manual.

Also that urgency is rooted in job insecurity, not even customer impact. They just don’t want to look bad.

E: which I mean fair enough, me too, but still.

Everyone’s different. My ~70 yo father-in-law can knock back IPAs all night and go for a bike ride, bright eyed and bushy tailed, the next morning. Meanwhile I’ll have 2-3 light drinks and be grumpy and unmotivated the next day.

Yeah I didn’t really understand hangovers until I slowed my drinking down to reasonable levels, and then to barely at all. Now it’s not so much a hangover, but I notice I’m not really 100% percent for a couple of days after some drinks.

Yeah I’m seeing them all over. I was at one of the Nov 12 “ceasefire now” protests, and saw this group actually had an info booth set up nearby.

I think I’m in a similar boat as you. On the whole I think it’s a positive thing.

pomodoro_longbreak,

I’m here to change that
