Don't you tell me what to call my meat shakes

Yeah, the manager fucked up by providing too much info and wording it poorly. If it's "you two have different skills and contribute to the team in different ways" that's another story. If Marcus is also making sure the rest of the team feels supported and keeps morale high then that is work too! (As someone who often fills the emotional support human role, on top of regular duties, I'm glad that this could be recognized). Productivity is more than work output, and comparison is the thief of joy.

If the person is upset because they feel their workload is too high, or that they aren't being compensated for their own work, then that's a different convo they should be having.

That dewlap tho

Man, what a legacy this man has. In th Lemmy app I use, the top of the was cut off in the thumbnail and so all I saw were the fittings and I was like man Ea Nasir, you still haven't improved your supply? And then I opened the image and yep he's at it again.

Someone on Lemmy told me that Dumas, because his work was published in serials, was paid by the word. I wonder if Hugo was the same.

That makes sense. I always feel like the people make the job what it is, and I just have a hard time reconciling how such horrific leadership can attract good people.

There's so much to unpack here. Did you work for a company run by a supervillain? And yet enjoyed the work?

Does gog usually get early access? Genuinely curious

I fully endorse this point, but with an added caveat. The government is made up of people, just like any other organization, but there is often less money to be had in the public sector than the private sector (corruption notwithstanding) so often you wind up with people passionate about their work, but occasionally you have people who aren't talented enough to hack it in the private sector.

The second example kind of feels like the Third Man Factor.

I've sunk probably a thousand hours into Slay the Spire, have beaten Hades, and just finished Cult of the Lamb. Looking for something else to scratch that itch- preferably on switch. Any suggestions?

Update: Y'all convinced me. I bought Binding of Isaac and am excited to start. I also tried out Dead Cells via Netflix, but feel like I'd prefer it with a controller compared to mobile. Gonna start with Isaac, and wait for a sale on Dead Cells. Thank you for all the recommendations! I'm saving this thread for future reference.

 

I'm looking to build shelves beside my fireplace but need to trim my mantel width down to accomodate them.

I have access to a circular saw, a reciprocating saw and a jig saw. I could also get a router if needed.

This is from a diy website but they had this part done by a professional. I'm just curious how you would go about cutting this. What tools should I use?

 

I mean, if an elephant dies what do they do with the body?

 

I do the daily wordle, but lately have been liking the murdle and the hexcodle.

I've tried worldle, but I'm crap at geography. Probably a reason I should play more, but thems be the breaks.

Any recommendations?

 

Apologies for the crinkly right off the needles mess. These are a gift and don't fit me, and I don't own sock blockers (yet).

Vanilla Socks but I made the cuff go straight into the heel because the recipient likes ankle socks.

 

Vanilla Sock by Crazy Sock Lady on magic loop in Estelle Sock twin crazy ball. Was not a huge fan of the yarn, as it is pretty splitty and a little rough but you guys I did it! I made my first ever pair of socks! And the rusticness of the yarn helps hide my beginner mistakes lol

 

I'm the crocheter who asked where to start learning to knit a few days ago. I'm now working on my first project.

I'm making a hat! Currently on my 5th row and absolutely hooked (forgive the crochet pun).

Question for knitters (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works to c/knitting@lemmy.world
 

What was your first project? I've been dying to learn how to knit, with the eventual goal of making socks, but can't decide where or how to start.

I would consider myself an advanced beginner to intermediate crocheter, but when my mom tried to teach me to cast on for knitting I went cross eyed.

Where's a good place to start? What would you recommend needles-wise?

Edit: Thank you so much everyone for the advice!

I ordered size 7 circular knitting needles (bamboo) to start. I'm going to try a hat so that I can get some practice knitting in the round.

My needles don't get here until Tuesday, and I can't walk at the moment, so I'm practicing casting on with chopsticks!

Thanks again

 

Second ever bag, first time following a graph. Tons of fun. Now I have a bag to use for the next month and a half!

I really like the way the green turned out. I used scrap yarn so the white was actually a 3 instead of everything else which was a 4, and only have a 3.50 hook. Overall, still in love.

I made this as a gift, but long story short I don't have the right yarn colours or the right sized hook or the right eyes. So I improvised. Hoping it still reads as the animal I intended!

Ps. The recipient knows my current status and why I can't procure the correct yarn, etc. They'll still appreciate it I'm sure.
