You shouldn't be buying burgers in supermarkets. Even the supposedly posh ones are rank, too firm, and have preservatives etc. Buy some mince, make some nice burgers. Make as many as you want, and the burger bun problem is solved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He then started calling him 'padewan' and 'young jedi' in work emails. Sounds like grooming to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outlook and Webmail have such a facility as I imagine most other email systems do That's the worse part, all our work emails automatically have your full name and job title as a signature. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the waiting area outside my office the room is a corrugated plastic... thing. Turns the place into an oven in the summer. But the sound of even the smallest shower sounds like a torrential downpour. It's fucking annoying when ye can't get away from it. Also squirrels keep jumping on it. That's annoying too.

AsimButtHitsASix Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 (edited) I genuinely enjoy my work. I think my colleagues are absolute mind cripples and the whole set up is seemingly designed as some kind of chinese torture. The work itself is great.

Just cut straight to the chase. We were given a training class on "How to use Social Media and Email in regards to your workplace" this week and apparently not saying "Hello", "Hi" or some other mundane greeting on an email is deemed rude and unwelcoming. Anyone found to be using incorrect email etiquette such as this could face disciplinary action. I shit you not. Our old general manager used to sign off his emails with "Thx". Not even his name after it or a best regards, just "Thx". I cannot tell you how much that made my blood boil. Worst of it was he was about 63, I expect that shit from a 12 year old girl, not a highly respected engineer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll always say "Hi" at the start of my emails because it's a bit softer, especially when talking to clients, etc. I also sign off my emails with my shortened name, the one that is used by everyone. Since my signature has my full name and I'm not sure there's a single person in the world who calls me it. Means I don't get called it by new folk.
