This happens too much in office culture, I can’t take it seriously.

I wrote a 300 word email explaining an issue someone asked about and my coworkers are acting like I wrote a 5 page essay that needs an AI summary

I think we can trick trump to start sanctioning ceos who keep manufacturing overseas. Then we can sit back and watch them fight

I remember a few years back when AI was still buzzing, my company wanted to jump on it and get us up to speed. They assigned courses and did town halls about prompting and being good and told us all use rhe liscenes they bought to test it out and practice. I thought it was silly so I never bothered. Now coming to today and they no long have those meetings and courses, tbf they stopped like a year ago

I think it was on this machine kills, but they talked about the rise of AI use is correlated to the fall of computer literacy. Specifically with big tech rise causing less visibility in how the products we use work and more reliance on ease of use. I think they talked about kids not even knowing how file systems work since everything is an app.

This can be solved when we bring back torrents

We can’t let a kennedy serve a full term. It’s ahistorical. It’ll ruin the fabric of the universe

I also have this opinion. That makes it a fact.

All of this. My bare minimum is doing the work but I’ll fuck around, take regular breaks, leave early, then get it done the day before it’s due. And I also prefer doing it to general standards so we don’t have to go back and do it again. But others either do it half assed causing problems later or take so long doing it that it impacts the rest of us.

It’s super easy to look like an exceptional employee while not doing anything exceptional at all, but others want to work “harder” for some reason

Q: How to give constructive criticism to people who need it but don’t want it?

A: you don’t

Guess this is the constructive criticism I need to take myself 😆. I do love teaching and helping others grow in their own skills at least, so I’ll wait for them to ask

If I tell someone git gud and also provide the resources to get good is it still offensive?

Genuine question too, this is one of those neurotypical communication aspects that confuse me.

Wait no value in what, A wedding toast?

Happy for the paycheck! Sorry it’s a job

I want to tell my coworkers “it only takes you this long to do things because you don’t know what you’re doing, if you knew what you were doing it wouldn’t take you this long”. My autistic brain sees that as a pep talk to just learn the thing and all will be good but my friend said there’s an emotional aspect that comes into play that I’m neglecting.

I don’t find the relevance because we’re not talking emotion we’re talking skills, a binary either you have or do not and if you do not you can gain; since you do not have then simply gain. I conceptually understand how it could be taken offensively but I can’t help but see it as a reccomendation to gain a skill/telling someone to learn something for their own betterment. They factually do not know what they’re doing, that’s why I typically send courses and articles on the skill they need or explain how things work to them when they reach out.

If I have already paid packages in the mail coming from China, would I need to pay more for them ?
