What would you like for everyone to know about the type of job you have?

Well since I’ve been mostly in customer service jobs I’d like for people to know that the reps don’t make the rules or decisions. When there is something about a store or service that’s undesirable such as prices then it’s something to bring up to upper management or just let them lose you as a customer. But you can be as nice to the reps as they are to you.

I work in food and the amount of customers that act like every mistake is a personal attack is wild.

If you actually think someone is deliberately messing up your food you need to just stop going there entirely.

I do equipment ordering for a nation-wide institution of 36,000 staff with hundreds of offices and clinics. My job would be so much easier if people would tell me where they want it at the time they’re telling me they need it.

I have to admit that I often forget to specify this. The fact that I’m Field Service doesn’t make it easier for my vendor to do the guesswork either, but they’ve gotten used to the fact that the address of the head office is only for billing, so they’ve made a habit out of asking.

When you buy a research paper, the author doesn’t get any cut from it. The journals are scams, and should be destroyed. Until that happens, try searching on arxiv.org first, usually there are preprints available there. If not, contact the authors. Most of us are happy to share our results. Your local library can also help you get access to those.

These are the more legitimate ways, and then there’s sci-hub. I’ve actually seen internationally renowned researchers open a paper using sci-hub on their laptop lol.

The things I ask you to do while troubleshooting aren’t guesses. They’re based on years of experience.

Garbanzo ,

Sometimes I’m guessing, but my guesses are more informed than yours and I’m only suggesting giving it a try because it will be faster than this argument we’re now having about it.

If you can frame every guess so that it can only ever have a binary A/B answer, troubleshooting and guessing are pretty much identical.

If you work around forklifts, never trust the driver. Ideally they're being safe and watching out for you, but don't gamble on it. They're heavier than a car and can very easily kill you or at the least break your foot and it will be an arduous healing process.

Never walk behind a forklift

Never get near one unless you’re getting in it to use it.

Also, accidents just happen - people have heart attacks, strokes, seizures, machines malfunction, all sorts of shit can suddenly happen that is out of anyone’s control, so even if someone is being safe and watching out for you, it isn’t worth the gamble…

Icing a cake takes time, especially when it’s one meant to feed between 90 and 100 people. We’re not trying to ruin your kids birthday when we need 24 hours notice for something that size, it’s that someone needs to take at least 2 hours to get it done, and we can’t magically make that happen on short notice and full days.
