  • The coolest thing that happened to me with teams was somehow being invited and automatically accepted to some corpo training event. 1000 attendees. My computer would not shut the fuck up with random people in chat. It was so strange. It was like a twitch stream chat but talking about excel instead.



  • There’s this third party hotline we use to call in so it’s kind of separated in that they may not know our actual policy. Regardless anyone that has personal time knows what it’s for.

    I called to use a personal day. “Hi I’m calling off for my shift tomorrow. I want to use a personal holiday.”

    “Ok, why are you calling off?”

    “Because I’m using a personal holiday. I have 30 hours left I want to use 10 tomorrow please.”

    “Ok I have you for 10 hours personal holiday I just need a reason”

    “I don’t need to provide a reason. It’s a personal holiday. As long as it’s no less than 8 hours before my shift, I just tell you guys I want to use a personal holiday. I don’t have to provide a reason.”

    “So you don’t want to provide a reason?”

    “No, thank you.”

    That was basically the end of the conversation but I was just like “holy fuck lady please just stop” at the end. No one gives reasons for vacation days and personal holidays. Sick days ( if you’re lucky enough to have sick time) are implied. Even if I called off, didn’t have time to use and ate points, are you going to give me less points if I provide a reason? No. We’re not going to do that. We’re just being fucking nosey.
