Is red shirt guys name sunk cost by any chance?

I’m saying not making each other miserable should be the norm. Being courteous and decent to each other should be the norm. Which includes greeting each other. No need to go overboard with donuts and the killing kind of kindness.

You’re saying things that don’t match up with what I wrote. Not sure why that is.

I don’t know about bringing donuts or the other reply about killing them with kindness. Both would be too much for someone like me.

Like, am I obligated to bring donuts now? Are we now caught up in a perpetual donut bringing cycle until it becomes the new normal and there’s donuts all the time?

And killing them with kindness is just overdoing it. I’d not feel comfortable.

Can we not just be courteous and decent to each other at this place of -work-? Don’t get me wrong. If you’re having a great day, tell me about it and share the joy. If you’re having a shitty day, I’ll be there to listen. But on the regular, let’s just not make each other miserable.

Thanks for taking the time to explain it so thoroughly. It’s appreciated!

TIL, thanks.

Although now I wonder what the difference and purpose is of having these two formats:

I guess it’s a little shorter but the regular link isn’t long by any means.

Can someone tell me what channel the video is from?

The post is a tracking link and I can’t find the video searching for the title.

Senior what? Accountant?

On a serious note, maybe just let people work however they like to work? Dark theme everywhere has been such a blessing for me as it is way less straining on my eyes. (Almost everywhere, fuck you google calendar. Wish I didn’t have to use you at work.)

I feel for me it’s more like:

A problem is presented to me that I haven’t encountered before but I feel like I’m expected to help. So I start talking while my brain works its way through all possible scenarios leading to me rambling on until I maybe possibly arrive at a conclusion which will hopefully make the whole thing make sense in the end.

Of course later, once the situation has long resolved, my brain will have completed a few other calculations subconsciously and I will know for sure that I was an idiot and you, the person I tried to help, will probably think so too. 😆

Why does anyone or anything need to be useful?

And maybe usefulness depends on the perspective. Maybe this axe could be used to demonstrate the importance of material choice in products.
