So basically, I apply a slight mist of water from a Spray bottle - then hand apply about a nickel size dollop of Cremo - it really doesn’t need a brush - but just fun to watch cream turn to a white film….

Very big of both of you, especially him/her for knowing it wasn't the right fit and saying so. I've been there too.... Good man
Thank you sir. I told them I see they have mad skills - it’s just unfortunate that those skills can’t be applied to what we do. I have to say - they were done a disservice when the recruiter did not have a technical interviewer when they were hired - the recruiter basically read the resume but didn‘t ask what tools they used and that would have brought the matter right front and center. I appreciated that they bent over backwards for our team to fill in some gaps for documentation - but they are worried that their tech skills will diminish. Good news is that I just got off the phone with another director and we have found a “bridge” landing spot for them and a more permanent solution.
Thank you sir
Me too.
Thank you sir. I tell you - I think too many times there are folks that look at the bottom line - but don’t realize that bottom line also includes the time invested to train and bring someone on board - plus most importantly, there is a live person, not a number, that has real needs to put food on the table and roof over the heads of their family. I am fortunate that I work for a large corporation so there are relationships and contracts I have the ability to leverage. Plus as much as they get a bad rap, my HR team and I are in sync with not hiring just for a position - but hire for the company long term. I am glad it will be a happy transition.
You folks obviously got it right ultimately. That person belongs on the ball club, just not at third base.
Well said, Buddy.
Can I say - I know this is first world problems - that in this day and age with encryption and sandboxing - the fact that I have to have two computers with docking stations to separate corporate from client work - seems to me both inefficient cost wise and productivity wise - I can’t tell you how many calls I miss because I am on the other machine and the other one times out ERRRRRGH!
I guess I also have to say - it still allows me to work from home for the foreseeable future and I don’t have to testify before Congress - so I guess there is a plus side to it. Glass half full.

When I was consulting, I generally ran with 2, sometimes three, laptops to be toted around depending which office I was in: primary customer, their client-1, their client-2... think consulting to IBM and being sub-k'd to their clients. *ugh*
We share(d) the same pain!

It’s getting a little warm here - and with warmth comes the humidity - so wanted to go light and fun today with an homage to Mountain Dew - with just a tinge of cool provided by the synth menthol. Finished up with Dior Homme Cologne which gives that manly Lemonade vibe.
Have a fantastic day everyone!
