Realizing that being at the right company makes all the different for what you do and how much you do. This company in a week has been 1000x better. I'm truly hoping it says this way - but I've been much happier and not dreading going to work for the last4 days has made such improvements to my psyche.
This. So much this. If you are in a job you hate, then it is time to start planning your exit.
Glad you found you a place that looks like it is going to work out great! Is your new job a WFH job?
It is , yeah. great company awesome people and lots of learning happening ; excited to get started with customers- i've been closing ticket and it's only my first week .
the perks are awesome too (coffee subscription paid for by the company is by far my favorite)Nice! That'd make an incredible perk.
that coupled with them buying lunch once a week ($25 Door dash gift card) I'm pretty well taken care of.

Making coffee now. Then heading out for a walk I hope. I need a break from the office chair.
-
Starting my work day - coffee brewed and working on some tickets
-
Anybody in Houston, Tx, Oct 1st - 8th? I'll be visiting, fancy some beers and a chat?
-
Workday is already in full swing, lots of fun tickets to deal with. Been a whole bunch of oddball requests lately.
Still working on coffee #3.

In a rare occurrence - I took the day off. Although I still took time to join the IT Teams meeting that lasts about an hour.
Kids started school today also.. so now I sit here with plenty of things to do - and no real hurry to do any of it. I've already fallen asleep once,.. and may do so again before long. Rest of the week with lead up to half a dozen staff moves to the new building that I don't know has the Certificate of Occupancy yet.... uhm - pretty sure we have to have that before people can work there... but - who am I do know such things.
Off to commit to doing something..... maybe.

I feel your pain. I've scheduled more meetings in the last 3 days than the entire first half of the year.

I signed into the VPN this morning before our Teams call,.. Just signed out. DIdn't do anything work really all day, though I did 'fix' a server issue.
But I see there are a few voice mails and some tickets not 'attended to', two tickets are about some laptop issue with one being titled EMERGENCY.
That's it,.. nothing else in the title... there is some 'details' in the body of the ticket,.. but the title EMERGENCY just makes me want to wait on it. Of course, I took the day off,.. so - phftt... not my problem anyway.
