@AirCanada it’s been 4 days since I’ve sent you a DM to make sure I can get a meal during your flight as I have dietary restrictions. Could you please respond? The flight is next week and I need to get it sorted otherwise I won’t be able to eat anything.

Your morning tea on the first day of vacation just hits different.

[Sarma (she/her) @nnipis]

Today’s not looking much better.

Train delay, train cancelled, train delayed. We were supposed to arrive in Milan 18:14, it’s 19:32 we’ve stopped on the tracks approx. 10 min drive from Centrale.

I just wanted to go to Muji and buy some notebooks, man. It closes at 20.

In the late afternoon I thought I’d like to do something adventurous after work.

17:02 I walked into our bedroom just to find a pigeon there.

The adventurous evening was going to the self service laundromat because the bird had spicy diarrhea all over our bedsheets. 💀

Don't want to jinx it, but somehow after choosing all the cheapest options for everything, we got a free upgrade from a windowless cabin to one with a balcony on our cruise from Genoa to Istanbul next week.

'Can't wait' is an understatement.

@Aradami Varu daudz labu lietu pateikt par šāda tipa Intex matračiem, kam ir ‘iebūvēts’ pumpis - vajag tikai iespraust rozetē. Gultas augstumā, neattapsies uz grīdas naktī. Zinu, ka Decathlon un citām firmām ir līdzīgi, bet ar tiem nav bijusi pieredze.

@VodafoneIT Dove posso aggiungere un feedback (negativo) sull'esperienza in negozio? Un dipendente ha bisogno di riqualificazione sulla privacy dei dati, ecc.

We’re going to an amusement park on Saturday and @albertofrattini suggested that ‘I could film a video like that guy from TikTok who went to Disneyland’.

The guy from TikTok:

social media managers when they look at how badly old accounts they used to run are performing

[Jon-Stephen Stansel @jsstansel]

A good social media manager can only do so much.
If a brand’s leadership continually makes decisions that mar the reputation of the brand, no amount of clever posting will save it.

But the social media manager will be the first to take the brunt of the criticism.

[Sarma (she/her) @nnipis]

These are my working shoes btw.

[Sarma (she/her) @nnipis]

It makes me look ridiculous but absolutely nothing boosts my WFH productivity more than wearing actual shoes and putting a baseball cap on.

I’ve known the shoe trick for a while but ‘the cathedral effect’ is something I’ve learnt recently and wow does it make a difference.

[Sarma (she/her) @nnipis]

The statistic isn’t surprising at all, sadly. And we feel this on an everyday basis.

Public transport in Italy is developed only in bigger cities, and touristic destinations. But this is a huge country with a lot of smaller cities that are basically disconnected.

@PolskaSiatkowka The only acceptable action. 👏 👏

[Sarma (she/her) @nnipis]

I think everyone should know that @CEVolleyball has invited Russian and Belarusian volleyball federations to participate in their congress that’s currently happening in Brussels.

[POLSKA SIATKÓWKA @PolskaSiatkowka]

Pilne!
Polska, Ukraina, Estonia, Litwa i Łotwa nie biorą udziału w Kongresie Europejskiej Konfederacji Piłki Siatkowej ze względu na obecność przedstawicieli Rosji i Białorusi.

Trying to sign a social media management tool honestly is like going through 3 rounds of job interviews only to find out the salary doesn’t match your expectations and you probably wouldn’t have applied if you knew it from the get go.
