And then if each class inherits from the Pages class upon instantiation it will just initialize everything. IE. new LoginPom(driver)

Howdy

I am not. Had never heard of it (looks cool though) but bad time of the year

The purpose of the chat room is to chat but it is mainly spammed with the new questions since no one else is ever really in here

Yes

I have

All the questions I actually like end up getting closed:(

@JeffQuick Workplace has always had relatively heavy handed moderation. Some justified, some not but there is heavy moderation here nonetheless.

@Chad Yeah but knowing how to deal with a person without knowing anything about the person is like asking how to fix a car without knowing what type of car it is

Is there a list of sample questions that would be considered exemplary to demonstrate how to ask such questions?

Seems like a reasonable way to handle it

I read through them and really didn't like any of the answers honestly but not sure what really deserved flagging. The few that applied back it up didn't really answer the question other than giving methods to avoid the interaction and not to assist in getting the person to view them as a professional.

"With me as your supreme leader/dictator errrrrr .... Moderator, you will have rainbows coming out of your ass and Unicorns running around. Without me, you won't get your medicine that makes you hallucinate"

That's the best pat of rainbows. Unicorns also helps with elections

@Chad And rainbows

I just am not sure why I started it to begin with. It has swamped me this last week

(My company is used to and appreciate that I run on tangents coding random things in my spare time. It has increased our productivity in QA drastically)

@RhysW I have nothing else to do. Once my notice went in I was cut off from all of the long term planning. I doubt what I am working on will be used as is but it's great experience for me and they will likely sample the source code long-term

@RhysW I never get assigned anything, I just see problems and fix them (I am in QA and nothing I code impacts customers)

Is it wise to start a massive new side-project with only 8 days left at my company (I already started it, was just curious if I made a huge mistake)?

I think the thing enderland said regarding it being too long might bite your blurb but honestly I don't think people will read it until their answer is flagged/downvoted/closed/deleted and are referred to it and at that point how long it is doesn't matter

@Chad Great post there

Bandwagon Voting, Vote Hoarding, Mass-Sympathy Voting

(Kidding, obviously)

I will meta post you like crazy, don't worry:-)

Kinda upsets me but I enjoy that I can put in the hours I need to when I need to without worrying about someone on top of me shaking their finger

My current company doesn't pay anything extra

Is it at least that OT where it goes down the more you work? (Sorry, half asleep today can't think of the word)

I have to drive clear across the entire city so it is a lot easier on me to just get to work extremely early and leave as early as possible. If I leave an hour later in the morning it takes about an extra hour to get to work

That's good. I took a day off one week and had to use 2 hours of sick time, last week I took a day off and had to use 3 hours

Ouch

Yeah, I typically do about 55 hours a week currently. Can't wait to be forced to work 40

This is so boring, making an API to a client for an API

I am salary currently, about to be hourly and am excited

My side projects are kinda the meat and potatoes. I am technically a manual tester but I develop on the side making testing tools

@Chad Depends on your field and what you do. I just got a lot of pressure to wrap up my side projects (which is what I prefer to do)

(STRONGLY suggest against doing that unless you know your boss well enough to not say you are fired)

But as I said, my boss had about 2 months notice that I would be parting ways

I am close with my boss so I let him know in person first

Well, you just let him know. Write a formal email stating simply that you are leaving the company and what your last day will be and that you will accommodate any expectations while continuing to work there

Well, I did mine several times with my boss. I warned him I was looking (he knew I would be when they refused to allow me to move)

You just do, I just did mine

That you are leaving the company?

(Kidding, of course)

@Shyju Tell them 'Your favorite competitor' or 'A place that appreciates me'

Olah

Yeah
