I know this sounds silly, but I've genuinely never had a place with central AC before. Is it always supposed to be set to on throughout the day so it keeps the house cool? (As in it turns on and off.) Or are you supposed to turn it on when you return home, after work or something?
Looking for furry MTG groups, specifically commander. I want to make new friends and acquaintances near me. But I'm having trouble finding anything except one telegram group.
I want to start posting my art, drawn and painted by me. Without the use of AI. But, I am a bit curious, what are the chances of people saying I use AI?
I've been out of the drawing game for a while now, and I guess I'm sort of curious what's it like posting art? Do I need to protect it from AI scalping bots? Do I need to post og sketches of what I made so I don't get convicted of AI?
Tldr: I made a large mistake and almost got fired. My job however, has no safety nets, while I am also accounting and assisting HR, and keeping track of insurance. Also everyone is sending me broken info. Should I start looking for a new job?
Today I made a very large error and almost underpaid a lot of people by a lot. And I do agree it is my fault. I work in the restaurant industry so we calculate tips. Managers send up excel sheets with everyone's points and stuff. I plug numbers from sales to calculate it.
Every week, most of the locations I handle send us the excel sheets, broken, late, or disorganized. This week, it was broken, and while I usually catch this stuff and have a system for catching it. I was literally trying to explain my job to an intern at the same time going step by step, completely threw me off and I just forgot to check one day for that one singular location. Almost lost my job for it.
If it was just that I would 100% blame myself.
What if I told you, this morning I got tons of other emails regarding adjustments to be made. Time cards to be entered. Somehow someone put in 80 hours of vacation time for somebody in my payroll behind my back. Salary employees are supposed to log hours just to make sure they worked... At least 5 I had to email to find out if they even worked. Someone got rehired YESTERDAY, but because of how the system functions they are automatically put into payroll with a full 40 hours for last week, so I thankfully caught that issue. We have no SOP. We have no safety nets. Each location has a different set of rules too, that are ever so slightly different. But can become major problems if I don't respect said rules.
I am also an accountant, so I keep up with sales and monthly schedules. I also help track insurance deductions and have to pay the insurance bill for the company each month. I also partially handle setting up employee profiles, and most of the time by the time I receive it, information on there is wrong and needs to be corrected. Day to day I correct so much nonsense, I feel like I have gone from the safety net, to the only person double checking anything. I feel I am set up to fail.
I've vented about this a few times and most people tell me, maybe it's time to find a new job. Frankly, a more experienced friend of mine was supposed to take this position a year ago, and gave up in a month. I was so grateful for the position and money, I took it and I have to admit... After today, I feel like I'm just waiting to lose my job. Yes, forgetting to check a tip sheet is my fault. But I feel like this is just a human error and if we have literally no second pair of eyes, no safety nets beyond what I made myself, then I am one mistake away from losing my job.
Should I start looking for a job?
I made a massive error that almost cost me my job today. And I'm just tired.
I do a lot of things to make sure I don't make mistakes. But sometimes it just happens. Especially when my system isn't working right, and I'm sort of helping someone else, and the information sent to me is outright wrong.
Yes. I should've double checked it, but ocassionally I just miss something. I have a bad day.
I hate to say it, but I gotta actually consider finding a new job. Because at this rate, I will make another mistake, and I don't want to look for a job with getting fired on my resume. If everyone is constantly sending me information, wrong or late in such a disorganized fashion, I'm bound to miss something. But I get the axe, and they get paid double my salary? Lol It's a little unfair.
Its such a cute bag, I really like it. But, it seems a bit big for a work commute.
Context, I'm a guy taking a steam deck, maybe a sketchbook, some cables, and other small items to work everyday. Right now I have an 11 inch laptop bag, which I find a bit too small to carry much in. It would be my daily use bag, so sometimes I do carry much more stuff.
If I wanted something bigger than a laptop bag, would this be what I'm looking for?
Not sure about the tag, but genuine question.
It's something I started to kinda ponder since, learning to draw very well takes a lot of time. How does a person like that even have time for writing a well thought out story? I can understand someone like Urasawa, who I think read a lot of novels previously.
But then what about someone like FMA author? I know they mentioned they read manga, but I feel like it takes more than that to write something like FMA. I wouldn't also just call it luck either.
How do some mangaka write so well?
Whenever Gen Z or millenials complain about the lack of job opportunities its ridiculous that we get told to Get a better degree. I understand maybe a fine arts degree is always gonna be harder to find work for than an engineer, but shouldn't most majors still be employable?
I find it ridiculous that somehow if you don't get the degree that's easiest to employ then we shouldn't expect to find work. I mean, anytime a game gets to a point where the players say, just play the meta, we know the game is broken. How is this any different? The only reason humanity has come so far is thanks to so many different people from various career paths coming together. And suddenly we're expected to just major in whatever the most easily employable job is at the moment.
Mind you, this still screws you over. Look at what happened to the software engineers, they used to have tons of employment opportunities. This also comes with another issue, companies overhiring a particular field. I believe currently electricians are gonna go through this. We need many electricians for data centers at the moment, they're apparently paid very well. Once they're done building data centers, these electricians are not going to have work. Mass layoffs, tons with skills that are no longer employable.
Then people see the issue and tell me, life success is not guaranteed. If life success is not guaranteed then people should be allowed to complain about a job market.
