We want you to grow up to be big and strong!...someday.
Haha! Of course sport! Anything for my big guy. Say, while we're at it, how about we make a day of it? We can get some burgers and floats, skip some rocks at the lake, and maybe even get you that new Lightning Mcqueen booster seat you've been wanting!? This is going to be so much fun bud! We just have to make a quick stop at the town office to renew your SSI information for your...condition...
Tussle their hair, smile and say "sure thing big guy. Want some chocolate milk?" And put your hands on your hips. It will make their day.
My family gives me street and road names, landmarks, etc.. which doesn't work for me.
What I really need is an address so that I can drive to the location once. After that, in my head I'm telling myself, "fork to the right, weird house, sharp turn, field, slow down because it's right after the old barn."
Either that, or I need them to say something like "remember where the old movie theater used to be? The one where your brother broke his tooth? It's the road to the left next to the gas station and it's the third driveway on the right."
After I drive somewhere once I can just get a feeling when I'm close to where I need to turn, or need to be, but for that first drive, you better give me exact coordinates.
I grate my fungus. Don't like fungus? Liar. You have always loved my fungus.
We all know that the vision pro is a porn machine masquerading as a innovative product. That goes for all VR. The first youtuber to give headset reviews centered around their ability to immerse people into porn is going to be the first channel I didn't accidentally subscribe to.
Once you get to know her, she's actually quite terrible.
Training modules pretend SAP makes sense, and treat you as if you are a robot. I blazed through them too quickly and they didnt like that. They asked me why, and i told them I had already been using the software access for 6 months because of a mistake they made, and the training was pointless. If i agreed in writing that i was competent and trained, then there is no difference.
Honestly I was positioning myself to be the irreplaceable SAP expert at my company because the software is so garbage that not many people knew or wanted to learn how to use it, and I wanted a foot in the door in the supply chain department.
Turns out when you tell your corporate bosses that their ideas don't work, don't work an added 20 hrs a week to compensate for their bad ideas and poor communication, and complain of harassment and treatment bias, they will just fire you. Without severance.
Those trainings were included as reasons for my firing. The ultimate reason for my firing? "Timeliness" because I used 2.5 days of my sick time over the course of 6 months.
They didn't show up for my unemployment hearing. The hearing officer was so confused by my situation he told me to stop answering as if it was a hearing, and just tell him why I think they fired me.
8 months later, I'm doing just fine. Raising my kids, running a business with my wife, and not worrying about being harassed by psychopathic ladder climbers while using the world's worst software.
Sorry for the book I just wrote. I'm known to rant and ramble like a senior citizen sometimes.
It's of my own opinion that they are absolutely avoiding the WARN act, while also trying to dump a ton of workers into the market to raise unemployment rates, lower the wage demand power of prospective employees, thereby decreasing job mobility.
Its quite telling when every CEO sounds off like a mocking bird about trivial shit like returning to office after making record profit for 3 years.
I badly want to write a rant but I've already met my quota for today.
Sorry I ranted a bit anyway.
SAP, the most forcedly convoluted and horrid amalgamation of acquired software, held together by a support team that barely know how it works, is forcing their workers to go back to the office, where they will communicate with everyone remotely.
Color me shocked.
I used to be able to email their support staff and say "I need access to XYZ" and they would respond "Who's access would you like to copy?" And I could have told them any name I would like and they would just give it to me.
At one time my boss gave me approval to do all the ordering for our department and gave me access to financial transactions. 6 months later, and a half million dollars spent, they realized I was never given the training that the access required. Guess who had 20 one hour trainings to complete in 2 weeks? Management blamed me.
Tangentially related, the key and peele sketch about Jaden explains his personality so well I believe it's essentially a true real life adaptation of a conversation he has had.
