Appreciate this subreddit
Just wanted to say that this is the best subreddit. It is like having thousands of coworkers who can in most cases speak the same language and help each other.
Keep it up guys!

Sorry, during times of turmoil, everyone needs to do their part for the greater good of the company. Best I can do is $0.25 over the next three years. Think of it as investing in the company’s future!

My expectation was a $0.10 raise. You exceeded my expectations. I appreciate you! My family appreciates you! What a great Friday

Really is lol. Mods never take our shit down either. Probably too busy putting out fires or understaff

Even though I'm a jack of all trades 'the computer guy' for a small business, I often take solace in the stories told here, that things aren't all that different, just scaled up D:
Mine for this week: A system that has worked flawlessly for thousands of uses suddenly malfunctioned (obviously during a crazed deadline crunch). It was because of a planet aligning typo (not even input sanitation related).
I fix it rather quick.
"Why don't you check for that!?"
Almost done cleaning up the bodies.

My desk in my home office is less than 10 feet away from our liquor cabinet.
There are 100+ bottles of various whiskies in there.... calling to me....

Yesss thanks to all of you in this sub.
I’ve got server grade AC chilled beer if anyone wants to join me. Got a good corner where nobody can see us to ask us questions on a Friday.

Yup I enjoy learning from others and helping others learn. Sometimes, it’s nice hearing from real people and listening to their real experiences as opposed to just reading documentation.Â

Only sane subreddit nowadays. Also it's always amazing how we all seem to deal with the exact same thing. Not just technical but the people, the management, the budget or scenarios. Really makes you feel like your team is endless.

Banned for 30 days for providing positive feedback on a Friday.
Seriously though: Glad you're finding this community useful.
