Had a VP who was forced to do this (but with commercial flights) 15ish years ago. It was hell and she quit after 4 months. Management was surprised due to their inability to understand people or reality.

So I have two Chromecasts, and this sucks, didn’t really want to replace them eith boxes (once they die). What viable replacements are there?
What I’ve found (in multiple systems across different companies) is spells and other class abilities that are in any plentiful amount will eventually have duds in them, and eventually printing schedules means you can’t fix/test them all. So you send them off, hope they don’t break the game, and make errata later if they are truly broken. This is a case where they had time to fix them, eventually.
But then you can’t fire them and not have to call it a re org.
It’s nice, but it comes with micromanagement. They are like fleas, though the biting is more painful.
I mean, you’re right. Im getting ahead of myself.
Well at least we know the future FF8 will not be overly melodramatic, feature a card game, have a frustrating last boss nor a weird pop song interlude. Or the saddest of sad boys as the protagonist. All of that would age poorly (to me)
Took me a second to understand the article meant FF9 remake. Here I was worried a bunch of people thought they had hallucinated FF9, then thought I was one of them.
I think the heat is getting to me. Look forward to trying the remake when I’m less loopy.
Yeah I was wondering if it was an underhanded way to get rid of people without officially letting them go. Seems like a lot of time and money tracking people to do that though, so I really have to wonder if they’ve lost the plot, thus me leaning towards incompetence.
That all said, and to hedge my bets, I haven’t seen their Financials. Maybe the verification is using cheap labour like YouTube review systems, for instance, or maybe they are really bloated.
Hard to say, you could be right. That’s where I’m less sure. I’ve had jobs where a (not direct manager) boss thinks I do less than I do, and more than I do.
The ones who believed I did less believed they did more than me regardless of what my manager reported or actual work done. The ones who believed more consistently didn’t hand me work and I eventually would leave.
One job I had different people who disagreed about the actual amount of work I did based on if I was at my desk vs the amount of awards I had vs my lunch breaks vs my extra work projects. I’d have feedback sessions with my manager about burnout but also if I was taking too long for lunch and going home too early.
What I’m saying is I think people are terrible at assessing subordinates work.
So I’ve worked in business for 17ish years now, and the only consistent thing I can say about business leadership is they are there to have their egos stroked.
They do not care about money or other people until they look bad, and even then they don’t do anything until someone threatens to take away the group of people forced to listen to them.
Working from home hurts their ego. This method (RTO) doesn’t improve value and increases turnaround, which increases expenses if you are happy with the amount of people working for your company, as replacing people costs money.
So either Dell still needs to get rid of people, or a bunch of old fucks need someone to suck up to them in person.
Born Canuck here. Yes one of us, ya hoser.
I mean, he’s a Tigger, not a Tiger, so that’s off.
Weirdest ongoing joke, if I remember right. His real name is Nicholas Schimmelpenninck, but when he took over as the main host in season 2, they had shortened it to make it easier to say.
Yikes, thanks for sharing. Maybe it’s time for some Nintendo shareholders to ensure it doesn’t become an annoying add on for Xbox. Or not, they may just take the cheques.
Quote from the article:
However, Spencer outlined a number of blocks on the merger, including the fact Nintendo seemed uninterested in selling up. Nintendo is “sitting on a big pile of cash”, Spencer said, and was apparently happy with its current position. As a result, Spencer said he couldn’t “see an angle” on a buyout in the short term, adding: “I don’t think a hostile action would be a good move… so we are playing the long game."
So its never happening and it’s at best delusional. Got it.
Nailed it. She was notorious for that.
