What did you do at work today?

:D. Yes, subtle. So subtle only the most aware of persons would notice.

LOL. Well yeah you're partially right. It's part of, a big part, what I'm currently working on. There's more, it just doesn't exist yet. Working on creating it

Are you going to SB Nation?

u jelly?

My company has always run lean with staffing, but right now it's so bad it's a joke. There's really no incentive to work hard, because you only get more work piled on you if you're a top performer. It's sad when everyone's goal is to just do enough to slide by. What's amazing is the company can't see or understand that this is the culture they have created and continue to perpetuate.

This is us right now. i'm an IT proj mgr and as of today have 5 different projects going at once, plus several other collateral duties thrown in. The more you show you can handle, the more they pile on.

Today I emailed an associate in China telling him that we had finally satisfied a customer in St. Louis.
After four attempts.
And this is because Chinese manufacturing suxxorz at basic quality manufacturing processes.
But I didn't mention that because I know they dont give a flying fox.

Different job different company

Congrats. My workplace has been nuts lately. In my small department, 3 of us including myself have just been moved to a new reports out of buffalo ny, they flying for a meet and greet in 2 weeks. more stress, more opportunity which is positive i guess, better than being laid off these days

u jelly?

Oh hell yeah I'm jealous. Since I can't play contact sports I feel like a job involving professional sports in some capacity would be excellent. Of course I'd need to go back to school to do that, and blah blah blah excuses excuses. Maybe someday though.

Why would you need to go back to school? What's your current skillet? This is such a crazy change for me. I'm like Marty Schottenheimer agreeing to coach a UFL team. But it's exciting.

I don't know about Mooby's, but I like the country fried steak with sausage gravy and biscuits.

LOL. Stupid auto correct

There's a company here in Atlanta that has advertised "Sports Marketing" for kids out of college. What they didn't tell you in the interview was they drop you off at some neighborhood far away from your home and have you go door to door selling coupons they may or may not involve the Atlanta Falcons and your pay is 100% commission. Lucky for me the internet reviews flag such jobs for you.


I went for a sports marketing position whilst I was still in uni (casual? part-time? can't remember...). Turned out that sports marketing == selling raffle tickets in shopping centres. They actually took me to a shopping centre to show me how to sell them too...
