I am scrambling to put a few more packages into the postal system before the second strike in 6 months. I walk in during retiree hours mid morning with one customer in front of me feverishly filling in forms. Three postal workers were there including a supervisor type who was trying to adjudicate who goes on break when.

You are on strike by Friday no? You can have unlimited breaks then no?

It also took 3 personnel to serve 1 customer at a time.
 

Hybrid Work No Longer Dominant Policy of Fortune 100 Companies​

That's committing industry suicide when you start pissing off Jamie Dimon.
 
“Already, the scramble for space in Toronto has spurred a game of musical chairs at the big banks’ corporate offices. Some employees say they are arriving at the office before 7 a.m. to secure a desk. Those that make it into the office at 9 a.m. either find they are unable to book a desk, or that the spot they secured has been taken over by a colleague, according to sources who work in the financial core.”

I am more confused why you are working in financial services and not at your desk by 715 prepping.

“A major non-bank financial institution that is bringing employees back to the office three days a week recently discovered that it has one desk for every two employees.”

Who does facilities and/or operations in this company? Do they even know how many people they hired? It’s simple maths.
 
ANZ chief executive Nuno Matos says it was "indefensible and deeply disappointing" for bankers to have been told they were being made redundant by automated emails, adding that the bank was taking steps to ensure no repetitions.

Mr Matos contacted the affected staff and senior executives in two emails seen by Reuters, the contents of which were confirmed by an ANZ spokesperson. Some retail banking staff facing job cuts received an email on Wednesday, telling them of their redundancies before they were told officially, Reuters reported on Thursday.

The emails had been sent by mistake, an ANZ spokesperson said at the time, and redundancy meetings were made quickly.

...............It's indefensible and deeply disappointing you were made redundant with an automated e-mail a day ago. But today we're going to set up a meeting to tell you you are officially redundant.
 
“People who spent the past five years working from home clad in the pressed button-up and pyjama-pant outfit combo, may feel the need to shop for new work attire. Ms. Marques warns against overspending by sticking to the basics and investing in a few pairs of structured jeans, a blazer, T-shirts, a nice pair of sneakers and dress shoes. She notes that workers returning to the office can get away with more business-casual attire than previously, alleviating the pressure to splurge on a three-piece suit.”

A blazer, t-shirt and a structured pair of jeans. That is considered work attire in 2025? Mio dio.

There is something in between Miami Vice look and three piece no?
 
Listened to a Bloomberg guy moan for about 30 minutes that people in their late 50s ought not to be in line of succession to take over the reins in their 60s ("Mayo said that including Borthwick, it is now a three-way race to become the next BofA CEO. Athanasia, 59, and DeMare, 56, will take overall responsibility for the company's business lines").

But then the Bloomberg anchor said out of all the executives at Bank of America, only one guy is in their 40s.
 
The Australians have a slang expression for CEOs who are full of themselves: Figjam.
 
Actually getting in person interviews rather than talking heads on a tablet or screen.

It's an old one - doesn't just apply to CEOs - can apply to anyone.

I guess you do know what it's an acronym for?

Nope. Is it like fubar?

It was from an article in the local paper talking about the change of CEOs at Barrick. The outgoing CEO was a blustering South African. I'm unsure why an Aussie term was appropriate.

Okay. I got the part where we're trying to hide the Anglo-Saxon term for copulate.
 
A person who got promoted. Still has yet to update their job profile with their new title. Got the money. Still communicates as their old title. Said person will not be judged for bonuses with the new title next year if they don't make updates.
 
How many people keep saying their Internet sucks or their bandwidth is suffering or struggling so they need to turn off video? These people also tend not to say anything in audio form either.

Why don’t you just get better Internet?
 
Random bloke on LinkedIn adds you. When you accept he immediately says he can sell you A, B or C. No - not interested and not applicable.

A week later he posts a photograph of him and two other people. Great conversations at this event tagging all sorts of people including you.

Unless nicer version of piss off was your conversation I never had any with you.

Now I am getting spammed by a bunch of even more random people liking his post.

Please explain to me why people think it is okay to expense food court meals on days they come into the office. I am not talking team celebration or I took a client out.

There is no set schedule for this bloke. It’s left as open ended hybrid or flexible workplace.

Do people also submit dry cleaning expenses for their suits?
 
People who keep reading every text on their slides in a presentation. Word over word. People who read slides not composed by them.
