Terrible situation. I had a temp come work for me that had fled from Ukraine. I judged the situation at first, but I considered what I would do in his situation. I’d like to think I’d stay and fight, but we only get one life. My guy was just trying to to survive.

Myth busters had to be the worst offender in that realm. “here a 2 minute recap of that things you just saw 5 minutes ago.”

I feel like essays are where teachers bump up the kids that don’t do well but still try

Those bad boys are concrete lol.

Jets ❤️

Same here, I still do a lot of complex problem solving and modeling but excel/python handles a lot of the dirty work for me.

My favorite is summoning salt.

There’s a place right by my house that does full English and it’s heavenly.

I had a plaintext guide from gamefaqs that I printed at a friend’s house because we didn’t have internet lmao.

Got me thru it but I have no idea how.

That’s something, lol. I’m not irreplaceable but it would be an absolute clusterfuck if I left, at least for a while.

I do a good job of documenting everything but so much of my work relies on scripts that I wrote and never properly deployed - a mix of python and VBA, and all my reporting relies on an API connection that nobody else maintains and other than a handful of queries I shared, nobody really knows how to use it.

I’m not trying to be shitty but it’s job security.

Someone measure the pixels, if this isn’t to scale imma be upset

As re y’all fucking with me lmao

Lisan al gaib!

It might be worth paying out of pocket for a potential life altering diagnosis. Easier said than done depending on your personal finances.

There are also newer non-stimulant meds if age/heart health is an issue, and some off-label drugs that GP doctors can prescribe that could help as well (Wellbutrin comes to mind).

Good luck out there 🫡

Think about it longer term… All the people struggling at the bottom now have secure housing. More money is free for nutrition, hygiene, they can get better jobs or afford schooling… Trades or higher education. More people have a chance to escape poverty and contribute production, get more money to spend, more money gets out into local economies. So and so forth. It’s a good idea.

Fun game!

I think this is from a mobile game I used to play… Neko Atsume? Pretty cute and fun.

It’s that a snake or grass? ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I’m not a programmer by trade but I learned some python and VBA to automate some of the things I do every day. Any time you’re doing some manual shit and think “there’s gotta be a better way” there probably is - just Google how to do that one thing and you’ll build up your knowledge over time.

It’s up to you to decide if you tell your boss or not. I chose to and took on some extra duties along with extra pay so it worked out for me but it’s a small business with a high value on productivity.

Good God please use xlookup. We have some old school people that still use vlookup and refuse to convert their ranges to tables, it drives me crazy.

I still use index/match for multiple lookup returns (or is it sumifs I can’t remember?) But I do a lot of work in BI and it’s much more intuitive for me in DAX/M.
