I also had a good friend at another company who had to take a personality exam. He came out with a score of “perfectly normal “
HR decided no one could be “perfectly normal “ and made him go to 8 weeks of therapy. After three weeks he told them “this is bs, I’m not coming back “.
Meanwhile I never got my score back. When I asked they said it was because mine was all mixed up and no one could have that combination so my test was rejected and I was marked “inconclusive “
Work made us all take these personality exams. 50+ questions, all with 5 answers (ABCD or E).
I read the first, groaned, then just answered C on every single question without reading them.
Everyone was amazed at how perfectly the assessment fit me. 🙄
I’m also not in the least bit surprised I wasn’t red flagged for finishing a test for which we were given 90 minutes I got done in 1 minute 33 seconds.
I used this Saturday to help generate a Fabric notebook. I started with my proposed design, asked @Copilot to poke holes and make suggestions.
It helped me refine my idea, then when I was happy it generated the code. After testing I came up with some refinements that it helped me implement
A very nice experience.
I am taking a shot in the dark, but if there is anyone in Alabama (I can work from Birmingham to Florence), who is in need of a Technical Writer or Documentation Specialist DM me.
I will need verification that you are an actual business, because this is the Internet.
But I'm good at what I do. I show up to work and I pretty much keep my head down.
So, if you are looking for a good employee, I am looking for a good employer.

@adamlyttleapps I need to do that. Ever since I got on these cancer drugs my brain hasn’t worked right. I get distracted too easily, have left my water bottle at the gym or in the car too many times. Great idea!
@acjuelich Cables for sure. You can work with the wind, blowing leaves, trash, and small woodland creatures in the same direction.
Cables will always fight you.
@jenstirrup@mistressdivy I find it invigorating to show up for jury duty. “Death penalty! Right now!”
Sir, this is just traffic court.
“Exactly! Lethal injection for everyone!”
Juror is dismissed.
@Grady_Booch@sqL_handLe@af_academy I found my dad’s slide rule, I guess I was about 12 or so, and (at my request) he taught me how to use it. Even gave me a spare he had.
I should get one… just because.
@davepl1968@AlfinCodes Me too! TRSDOS. Technically it was my dad’s, but I was on it so much he got tired of kicking me out of their bedroom at night and moved it into mine.
@guyrleech I keep laptop chargers all over the house, plus an extra in my laptop bag so I’ll never forget it. Got easier when I switched to USB-C power. I found I can get USB-C adapters for various power tips.
