True story...sad or funny? You decide...
Some overheard at work in meme form between coworker (we'll call him Luke*), me, and The Powers That Be (we'll call them Satan.)
*Names changed to protect the innocent
Luke to me:
What I said:
What I thought:
Coworker to Satan:
Satan to coworker:
Coworker tells me he's made yet another plea for them to make me stay...
I explain that contrary to popular belief no matter what they felt I wouldn't be required to stay. There is no legal indenture applying to me...
He chooses to ignore my delightful joke about indentured servitude...
I then try to get him to focus on training and going over some practical stuff that he needs to know
While thinking...
But helpfully pointing out in an uncharacteristically maternal manner...
and explaining that if he doesn't know what to do just ask a series of basic troubleshooting questions...
and if no joy then escalate...
I even threw in some advice about dealing with end users...
and a little coaching about how I approach embracing new challenges...
Only four more days ...until I get this crap via text and personal email rather than in person at work.
