A #TechTeam member from another office just shared a math question from his daughter's homework:
.
60 + 60 * 0 + 1 = ?
.
I'm waiting to see the responses (answer is 61, BTW).
-
Some of $EMPLOYER's #TechTeam members are learning how other employees feel. We're part of a group who currently cannot log in.
-
The person who argued with his boss's boss yesterday just sent a 'Thanks & Farewell' message to the #TechTeam mailing list. Exit, stage left.
-
We had a short discussion in the #TechTeam office about setting boundaries, so $EMPLOYER doesn't consume one's life. Someone wanted to stay late to finish a project. We're already working 10 hours * 6 days.
-
Going to order a meal with the #TechTeam here. Last day in this building.
-
Sat in a room for $EMPLOYER's #TechTeam videoconference. Almost as soon as I sat down, I started drifting off to sleep. Since the meeting ended, I've been awake and alert.
.
(I haven't started 'no caffeine at all' yet.)
-
I don't like it when a fellow #TechTeam member from another office brings a problem to your group and they won't listen when you tell them the solution.
-
Was made aware that it is no longer possible to create a #Lynda.com account without also having a #LinkedIn / #LockedOut account.
I still have my Lynda account that $EMPLOYER #TechTeam funds, so that's okay for me, but that leaves the Little One high and dry.
I'm looking for a training site that includes both reading and videos. Paid is okay, if the price isn't crazy. Being tied to LockedOut or similarly useless or spammy sites is not okay.
I do have a request out to S (who works for the same agency I do), who seems to know about more training resources than anyone else I interact with regularly. However, it seems wise to ask multiple sources for this info.
-
Two hour audioconference for $EMPLOYER #TechTeam about to start.
-
@musicman I'd be surprised, but most of $EMPLOYER's #TechTeam would also have to ask what #IRC is. If it isn't Redmond-made (R), they don't know about it. (Some of them have heard of that scary "Lunix" stuff, but they stay away from places where they might encounter it.)
-
Talking about job.next() with S, another member of $EMPLOYER's #TechTeam.
-
No, she's another member of the agency's #TechTeam, currently working in California.
-
-- paid professional development.
$EMPLOYER recently gave #TechTeam members paid subscriptions to Lynda\.com ... considering that they never did anything at all for us before, that's a big move. But too little, too late.
-
@alpacaherder In case you hadn't guessed, upper IT management in $EMPLOYER recently addressed the complaints about them cancelling people's holiday time off requests in a very imperious manner. If the US economy actually does recover sometime, they may lose 50% or more of the field #TechTeam workforce within a few months.
-
Got a complement from our borrowed #TechTeam member. He said in his office, I'm famous as "the one guy in $EMPLOYER who knows his sh*t".
-
Spent 4+ hours driving. I get to the office and my #TechTeam member on-site is at another office, an hour away, assisting another member. Off to the other office, I guess.
-
Note: They are still planning to claw back overpaid overtime for #TechTeam members / IT staff going back to June of 2016.
-
Long phone call with Kenny, another member of $EMPLOYER's #TechTeam. The agency's problems are largely caused by mismanagement, especially mismanagement of employees (I think the most recent catchphrase is "human capital"). But he was able to get management to fix a couple of specific issues that affected him.
-
Heard from members of $EMPLOYER's #TechTeam in MO, MD, GA, CA today. Lots of people speculating about the management changes ahead and wondering whether to focus on getting jobs outside the agency.
-
Busy day for $EMPLOYER's #TechTeam. Nationwide outage. I'm sure it will turn out to be account permissions issue.
