Officers are management, a lt col is similar to a director at a tech company. If they're trying to modernize the strategy and direction of the organization before bringing in addit…

Any physically tiring activity makes me sleep better. From lifting to running to walking long distances. You should alternate cardio and weight lifting for general health, not just…

You put the sugar in when the tea is hot because it allows you to super saturate the room temperature/cold tea with sugar and the tea is more like a syrup. If you just stir in suga…

Use a fan on your drying rack if you aren't hanging outdoors. This has had a major impact on the musty smellingness of my synthetic shirts. I don't have to use bleach/vinegar anymo…

You have to treat your NCO/officers like humans, but there's no need to care about your joes. Tell joe to get things done and they can't stop until it's done or they get extra duty…

Yes, 02-05, OEF/OIF 11b got out as an E4. I was incredibly unimpressed with military leadership. You can read about my old BC if you're interested: https://journalnow.com/colonels-…

Nothing the military puts out on leadership should be taken very seriously because of the UCMJ and because unhappy people can't quit with serious repercussions. Anyone can make a t…

> What I'm hearing is that there are a lot of mostly functional CPAP devices on the used market now. Phillips is doing a replacement and you are supposed to send in your old device…

For some players, yes. For most players, no. It was pve and role playing. Once they split the realms to pvp and non-pvp, the pvp realm had a much lower player base because it was p…

> I am the only senior What does this mean? Does this mean you're the same level but have more experience? If you're all the same level, let the other devs own things. They're the …

From the new hire side, the way I explain it is that they should ask the people with 2-3 yoe first since they're the ones closest to the code + have onboarded most recently. It's n…

I did, I was in the army in my early 20s, used the gi bill + parents help to get a psychology degree in my late 20s, worked minimum wage for 2 years then went back to school in my …

The job is boring, the hours are terrible, they spend a lot of time away from family and they get no sick days. They are well paid if they are based in a cheap COL area, but it's a…

Cut the elastic ear loops off of an old mask and tie it to the elastic on a new mask to bridge the gap between the new mask ear elastics (or use a piece of string) so the pressure …

It's extremely time consuming to collect bags, stage bags at the fcs, and the bags have to be cleaned between uses which would negate any environmental savings.

That's more promotion oriented architecture and design. New services/businesses are how you get promoted. Maintenance or incrementally improve existing functionality and you'll nev…

Retail reinvests money into fcs so that the amazon moat grows bigger. Anyone wanting to challenge amazon for delivery has to spend tens/hundreds of billions and years to replicate …

It's not just the markings, it's training for the crew since being a gunship vs being unarmed is different, different equipment inside for the litter vs door guns, less medical equ…

> What they don' tell you (or don't know) is that in Iraq, US soldiers were often given engagement rules like "from this point on the map onward, shoot anything that moves." Is thi…

You're completely wrong. Upper management is where the policies come from. They don't push back on URA targets because they either don't care or don't have the backbone to. If your…

If you saw any blue badge employees with a yellow/red/purple border around their badge, then that signifies how long they've been at the company. Saying someone is a yellow badge b…

Having it happen once isn't toxic. The part that creates the terrible culture is that it happens every year. Imagine trying to build a team and good culture when someone on your te…

The problem that U8 had was that the rest of the Ultimas were mindblowing and pushing the frontiers of what a game could be with every release. U5 built a massive world. U6 took it…
