First: Congrats on graduating! I love the new design (kudos to the designers) overall.
However, this has been bugging me:
Notice how 'tomorrow' is ever so slightly smaller than 'ends'? It turns out that it's specified to 11 point font, while the 'ends' is in 12 pt font. Can we please do this?
The way the question is framed, the poster is expecting eventual promotion into senior management via a progression of roles up a career ladder. This is an unproductive approach. It is a strategy followed by millions of people, of which a few thousand 'succeed'. However, of those few thousand, m...
Just says what ever is on the top of his mind that was a tangent of a tangent with out reguard for actually answering the question....
You are asking a really broad question, then expecting a one-size-fits-all answer, which I think is a crazily unrealistic expectation, given that say a multinational oil company is organized differently from a say a defense contractor or say a major brokerage and they have different managerial n...
@VietnhiPhuvan this is unfortunately a question/answer site. It's not a place to simply post thoughts without answering questions. Posts here are intended to answer the question, not simply be commentary... — enderland7 secs ago
Hi, just a note, when you post a question it suggests a list of possible related questions. The first one on the list links to the question this was closed as a duplicate of. Hopefully this helps in the future and welcome to The Workplace! — enderland7 secs ago
It bothers me when people say they çouldn't find a dup but literally the first suggested question based on their title leads them to the dup
@enderland Its not unfortunate... that is the reason we come here.
@enderland fixed it
@enderland mines different because he wanted to know if he should use is actual name though and I want to know if I should use a nickname... Obviously completely different questions
@enderland Do you think it would be out of line to edit that question to ask "what options does he have in dealing with his reports?" I think thats actually a good question to ask.
Or is that too drastic of a change in the question? the more I read it that seems to be what he is wanting to know, but it could just be my wishful thinking since i can see a great question there.
I think it's ironic I am editing his wall of text into something I can actually prase
Hi John, welcome to the Workplace. I made a fairly significant edit to your question in order to make it a bit more clear what you are asking as well as improve some formatting. If this changes your question too much feel free to edit in order to make your original intent clear. — enderland5 secs ago
@Chad I guess I don't know why else someone would post here unless "how can I fix this problem [which must be the person?]" was their overall point
@PaulDonny eh, there are a few intermediate steps which should happen first, it's a lot cheaper to spend 1 hour talking to someone and making them realize they need to work harder/better than it is to fire/rehire someone ;)
even if it's a 5% chance...
@Chad I'm agreeing more and more with your "good questions result in [hopefully] better answers" philosophy
I think especially question titles matching their clear/concise body is really important, at least towards getting "does this even address the question?" answers
I am about to graduate after the fall with a BS in Computer Science and while my view on what i can do has drastically expanded, at the same time i feel that i have become extremely lost. I do have interests but i don't know the ups and downs of such career paths. I do not want to be working for ...
I'm currently employed but looking elsewhere as my current position is unstable. In this search, I've found a company that wanted a very long second interview (4+ hours) that must start early - obviously cutting out a big chunk of my work day because I also lose the time driving there and back. T...
Hey Junior, and welcome to The Workplace! Is there any chance you could address some of the concerns raised in the comments to make an edit and focus your question a little better? What makes you concerned this is a red flag? What makes you think this is a problem that needs solving? If you just want to bounce ideas off someone, The Workplace Chat may be a better place for that. Thanks in advance! — jmac17 secs ago
Whenever there are this many comments, I can't see it as a clear question. Why it has 9 upvotes is beyond me...
