/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Pace yourself, because if you only ever worked at maximum capacity then they'd always expect maximum capacity. Always work at cruising speeds so when you need to go max speed you look like a miracle worker
When I was a supervisor I used to tell people on my team that. I didn't want them going above and beyond to make shit happen when we were short staffed because then the bean counters were gonna see that and determine we didn't need more people. I told them they should shoot to get "exceeds" on their metrics but nothing beyond that because that was all that was needed to max out their performance review at the end of the year.
Has literally happened where I work. The team is now 20% of the size it used to be and now they're thinking of getting rid of the team entirely and just having general office staff do the job.
I don't want to be a dog's body office worker, so I'm quitting, which means that they have managed to have a 100% staff turnover rate in 18 months. It's like they actively want to lose the contract.
Thanks Scotty!
