How do you indicate that you aren't using "(not sarcastic)" or "/notsarcastic" sarcastically? — sphennings 11 hours ago

@ankiiiiiii See this comment. What I am trying to say - If everything was said in high tone with strong words, a Thanks and smiley is added, do you take that as a friendly message?

@NogShine haha that’s seen on SE and I am surprised to see the use of those words as a cover up.

Q: How to ask my manager for a part-time?

I'm currently working as a full-time QA engineer. I have been working here for a little less than a year. I'm on the autism spectrum with tiredness issue and working full time is just too much for me. My manager knows that I'm on the autism spectrum (I told him some time ago, before the end of m...

So slow and quiet today...

It's the temperatures ;) I'm trying to get a load of work done, so I can take a break this afternoon when it's seriously hot. Sadly, I put my alarm at 5:30am then turned it off and woke up again at around 8, so I already missed that headstart :/

Ælis

I kind of have the opposite situation. Since we have the air conditioning in my office and not in my apartment, I rather go to work later (but I don't because I don't like to change my schedule)

Tinkeringbell

I'm working from home today. Tomorrow I'll be at an office again, then I can work 'regular' hours easily :D

Ah well. So far, it's not too bad here either, I have a fan.

Imus

@Tinkeringbell Could be the heat making me not thing straight, but you having a fan made me think of someone standing next to you cheering you on. "You got this Tink, I believe in you!"

Office here reached 26°C already ... oh boy

Tinkeringbell

@Imus Oh, that too... it's a very supportive fan :P

@Imus I think my room is about the same (I can only guess, but it feels hotter than downstairs and downstairs is 23). Having the ventilator helps a lot :D

@Tinkeringbell I'm thinking about buying a fan but I haven't done so yet. I guess I'm waiting for the heat in my apartment to become unbearable for several days in a row (so far, I just had one bad night because of the heat). I'm lucky because my apartment doesn't become to hot too fast

Tinkeringbell

@Ælis I had some money to spare last summer, and just decided to buy a relatively cheap one, but it works like a charm! And I'm very glad I have it, even when there's only 1 unbearable day/night ;)

Ælis

@Tinkeringbell I do have some money to spare too. But I'm always reluctant to buy stuff and buying a fan makes no differences. But since it's my decision to not buy a fan, I can't complain about it :p (which I would have done if I just hadn't had the possibility to buy one ^^)

Tinkeringbell

Hahaha That's a good way of looking at it too :)

I had a small USB desk fan, borrowed from a friend ... which started to rattle a lot so is too distracting for coworkers now :(
