Life of working in a tech office run by old people

What's the company website again? www.*****.com. Slash or no slash?

Why You May Be Literally Killing Your Employees

Wow. I’m aware of emotional stress, but physical health? That’s…. awful.

Calling each other “boss” is not helping the fact that no one knows who the real boss is.

#pregame

You know you’re not going to have a productive Monday, when there’s a pre-meeting for the meeting this afternoon.

Old guy no. 4 asked me about an email that I just sent him which was a forward to a project manager which was originally my emailing an overseas developer about my software test results. 

“Does [overseas developer] know about your test results? Did you send it to him” he asked.

Why don’t you scroll down and follow the paper trail, genius?

#priceoflife Update

The models are asking to be paid per hour basis. $50/hr. Which is totally expected in our opinion.

Gotta wait for their brains to stop buffering for a solution though….

Planning an event. Getting models. They’re getting 6 girls. Budget?

$500.

No, $500 for 6, not $500 each.

Do we have a Facebook?

Old guy no. 3

Shows how much he’s involved with marketing. Head of marketing, everyone! *applause*

Old guy no.2: Why is there conflict with you and the overseas developer? Do they know that you’re in charge now?

Me: Wait… they don’t know about the company restructuring?

Old guy no.2: You mean you didn’t tell them?

Me: Shouldn't these kind of things come from upper management?????????????

About an event launch

Young guy: Why was this date chosen?

Old guy no. 2: Because last December we said we'd try to launch again in March

Young guy: But that's like in a month. We only have one month to prepare.

Old guy no. 2: Actually we have 3 months to prepare..... From December.

Young guy: But you're only formally announcing it now......?

[realtalkskeptic]

New guy comes in. Neither young nor old. Not sure where he stands right now, and he's telling us stuff we've heard already.

So a new role was given to me, and yet old guy no. 3 wants to be a part of it. Totally not his field. Guess he has nothing better to do.

Should you ask a BUSINESS school for DESIGN interns?

It's difficult to get a man to understand something if his salary depends on him not understanding it.

#freehands

We like how old guy no. 4 arrives and leaves the office empty handed. Literally. The mark of a true leader.
