A little sad to see the Lemmy winding down a bit.

Small victories, but learned to fry an egg, and get it cooked the whole way through without flipping it.

Still yet to figure out how to have it be slightly runny without being raw up top though.

Also kind of wish that they sold thicker cuts of bacon. A half-cm thick slice sounds heavenly on toast.

Shout out to SES, tree crews, powerline workers and everyone else who was hammered by the storms yesterday and are continuing the cleanup today. With special thanks to the cop directing traffic on Burwood Hwy/Springvale Rd in peak hour yesterday. Trying to control that many cars must be a nightmare!

I just had the Performance Agreement meeting and I still have my job. The review period is being extended and I'm being given a written warning. I have another month to just try do what they want from me. I can do the actual work required of me, it's all the following up with people and adding comments here and there about what's being done that's the issue. It's the most frustrating and boring part of the job for me, but this is a more corporate setting and that's what's important to them.

At least you've got something to work with. And some more time to job hunt, if you end going that way.

It sounds like pretty shit management if this is the approach they're taking rather than just coaching you on what they need.

I'm figuring out the balance of what I need to do vs what's expected of me and how to best deliver that.

On thing I picked up on today is a task in our project management software has a bunch of subtasks inside it, but in the description instead of as subtasks. This would be easy to miss as is. I've gone ahead and created ask those tasks as subtasks so I can see them easier and track them.

So for my own sake I need to break tasks down more because what I'm provided isn't fully comprehensive and not specific to the project.
