Walking through Tatooine took me straight back to all those hours, days, years spent in the Phantom Menace game.

When the mediocre action-platformer suddenly turns into the KOTOR precursor with an open world Mos Espa, just going in bars, breaking into homes and meeting all the people.

"You better stand back mister 'cause I'm about to slash... ALLLL MY PRICES!"

I know it depends on the person, but I've joined a new team. Quite lad culture.

I'm sure you've experienced this - you go through the induction and training, especially security and procedures, only for the real day to day to be more... casual.

You get told all the security stuff, then they don't follow it to a T.

Boss tells you one staff is an issue or even wants to get rid, but then boss doesn't seem to apply pressure and just seems to be mates with them.

Or they're a top-performing team that could still do better, but you notice the boss' feedback is always just negative when the stats say you're killing it, so it flies over everyone's head or just makes them miserable.

At some point, the boss asks you if you have any feedback about them or if you'd do anything different. While you're still in probation.

Do you tell the truth and risk being pushed away (whether in the workplace or literally out the door politically)... or do you just shut up, keep the boss onside but also risk looking like a passenger with nothing to give?

I like to think the former, but it's also bloody awkward for some newbie to tell someone who's ultimately doing very well and been there years that they have several clear faults.

Since a week ago, the quality of everyone's video stories has dropped to like 480p

But when I log into my other account, they're fine.

Not the first weird thing to happen to my account - For a while, I couldn't log into it without doing Forgot Password and using the button in the email to log in. Once that stopped, this started.

I made a post on a managers subreddit about interviews and mentioned rejecting candidates... suddenly all the comments were about how we never reject candidates, they just weren't the right fit, there was just someone better etc.

It drove me mad.

This is the buck-passing you guys are dealing with when you're trying to get a job.

Everyone except 1 is rejected, we have to take ownership of our decisions.

Or am I crazy for not going with this LinkedIn crap?

Don't you guys feel like you got a 'rejection'?
