Re: Gear Grinding 7: Really? This crap again?
My first real gear grinder with my new job: I work for Tyson Foods, Zeeland plant, as a tank washer. These big steel bins are filled with raw meat, emptied in other departments, and come to us in tank wash to be cleaned, then retrieved by other departments.
Well tonight, nobody came to retrieve these tanks. All of us in tank wash went to break, and no one came to get the tanks. We ran out of places to put them. All of us got fed up and left early. If we can't work...

Re: Gear Grinding 7: Really? This crap again?
Grinding my gears, with a little back story: At work we've enlisted the development team from India to move all of our .NET applications to an internal cloud server system. They're farking up the code and existing SQL queries in a bad, bad way, which actually shocks me. All they should have to do is copy what's existing in production and update some network and config file references. What's so hard about that? Now they're saying that we have no data available for the SIT/DEV test environments for them to verify and they've asked me to create data for them. By my query I did locally, there are over 100,000 records in the test environment that the new cloud version of the app should see. Don't give me work to do because you can't get yours correct.
We bring in the C team developers from India, and we're getting the F team results.

Don't expect a reply to your follow-up, because that's a third question.

You ever work with Indians before? Put it this way: tArrogance should be applied elsewhere.

It's not that all Indian devs are arrogant, though just like devs here in the US, I'm sure they have their share of frat boy cockstains who think they're one big app away from being the next Travis Kalanick. No, it's that a lot of them go to diploma mill institutions in India that churn out crappy robo-developers with no understanding of actual industry practices, and the inability to do critical thinking. Kind of like ITT here in the States.

Yes, I know today is Good Friday and lots of places are shut down. But our company is not one of them and there are many others out there open today too. Don't get upset at me for calling you and wanting to talk work. I didn't know that you were off today. So if you don't want to talk work, don't pick up your phone!

I could understand if you had honest Christian convictions and wanted to take the day off, but I'm surprised it's still an automatic day off for some companies, and even then it can vary by the customs of the region. Our UK offices were closed today, for instance, but here in the States, consultants are expected to continue stealing watches.

Re: Gear Grinding 7: Really? This crap again?
I took today off because even though we're open for business, there's no actual transactions taking place. It's an exceptionally boring day. It's the first time I've ever had Good Friday off work, and it looks like a LOT of people have the day off work. Target was packed, and almost everyone there could have been labeled an idiot. It's like they did everything possible to clog up the various aisles throughout the grocery half of the store.
Speaking of gear grinding, the idiot in the Subaru Outback who came to the four-way intersection in the Target parking lot, only it's a two-way stop. The problem was that she's sitting at the intersection, one of the non-stop sign directions, and just reading her phone. I hit my horn and you'd have thought that I gave her a heart attack. Oh, and her teenage daughter was in the passenger seat, completely engrossed in her own phone. Great example you're setting there, lady.

I hope alot of people took today off, so I can get from the airport to my house in a reasonable amount of time during normal rush hour timing.

Re: Gear Grinding 7: Really? This crap again?
494 by my work had zero rush hour slowdown. Last night it was stop and go both ways at worst, a slow crawl at best. I'm guessing everyone was leaving town today. Work was dead all day today.

Re: Gear Grinding 7: Really? This crap again?
i swear my roommate runs the dishwasher just to lose me off sometimes.
There are like five dishes in the sink but the dishwasher was run half empty. In what ****ing universe is that normal? Am I crazy to think the dishwasher shouldn't be run until it's full?

Re: Gear Grinding 7: Really? This crap again?
I agree, under normal circumstances. As a bachelor, sometimes those dishes need to run, to make the next meals. I don't have a lot of cookware. I guess it depends on the situation.

Re: Gear Grinding 7: Really? This crap again?
All of my cookware is hand washed. This was just things like plates and bowls. But plenty leftover. She also took the cover off a pot in the fridge then placed the loaf of bread I had in there over the top of the pot.
What in the actual **** was that?

Gotcha on the hand-washed.
