'Thinkbait', not 'clickbait'. ND or a------? 1h I struggle with the world. It seems designed for and populated by absolute morons. I went out for coffee and cake with my wife. I ordered a black coffee. The waitress (speaking in that sing-songy way that treats everyone like a child and seems to be how customer service works these days) asked me, 'An Americano?' My response was to look at her with a hard expression. I had just told her with absolute clarity what I wanted. She could call it a French f g Poodle for all I cared. Eventually, she got the hint. Sort of. 'Do you want milk with that?' 'BLACK. COFFEE.' For f 's sake. An expression crossed her face as if I'M the a hole. It's fortunate she couldn't read my mind. Then again, I doubted she could read anything. It might be that I'm autistic. It might be that I am a psychopath. It might be that I have an IQ equal to most people's weekly calorie intake. But it's painful being the least r person in most situations. The world says 'be kind'. F. all that. Be present. Be interested. Be of value.

This cannot be real

Coltin Caverhill • 3rd+ Engineering Manager at Yelp 4d. • + Follow Managers, be very careful what you say to your engineers! I commented in a slack thread. It was a simple comment of "I wish we had feature X". I thought I was being fun. I thought it would get emoji responses and we would move on. The engineers solved it. Do you know how much we pay Software Engineers!? I did not mean for them to work on this thing and solve my issue. But they wanted to make things better, and if the manager points out an issue, they felt like it should be solved. This was not a big deal, and not a ton of time was spent, but it was a good reminder for me that I am not an engineer, I am a manager. And while that title is mostly meaningless to me, it means something to others. What I say magically holds more gravity not because of the merit of the statement, because of the title I hold. By not being mindful about what I share in our public channels, I led my team to spend time on the wrong thing. CO 2,345 297 comments • 52 reposts
OPENTOWORK Jason Roeder. 3rd+ Copywriter/Comedy Writer/Editor/... 1w. + Follow I immediately remove my shoes and socks upon entering any interview. Why do I do this? If they say nothing, I know they will not enforce even the most fundamental dress code. I cannot work in such chaos. If they tell me to put them back on, I know conformity reigns in this workplace, and my creativity will suffer. I cannot work there. If they tell me to put one sock and shoe on, I know they value balance and compromise. Only then will I work there.
