I love these kinds of very specific slice of life stories from work. It’s so weird how these things can feel like such a big part of your life, but most of us just forget about them as soon as we walk out the door, let alone change jobs. Work is so weird lol

This has always been one of my favourites

That’s curious because I find I rewatch more movies than ever before, since it’s so easy to find them, and I already know whether I like them or not.

This is the funniest bat-related thing I’ve seen today!

Just start by dual booting one of the “easy” distros and doing stuff that doesn’t require Windows. Eventually you’ll start spending more and more time on it out of comfort, then one day you may realise that you haven’t needed your Windows partition in months, and can skip out on it entirely.

This is dumb. But just to talk corpo for a bit (because that is the reality for many of us): early in your career, putting in extra study time (or just making time on the clock if possible) will give you a leg up for certain kinds of white collar work. Just because you’ll know more.

But doing work on weekends will set you apart as a damned sucker who can be used by others to make career moves. So do that if you want to feel someone’s pump in your eye socket as they trample you to reach for their dream job.

You’re never going to get promoted to an easier job if you’ve proven you can build like 2x more widgets than your co-workers.

You’ll get to a better job by showing up with your co-workers to the boss’ house and asking nicely.

It beats doomscrolling. Surfs up, dude! 🤟
