Fine. Indentured servant-ed over.Having said that, you're probably not supposed to say "slaved over" anymore.

Candidate tells me today they are only available after 8pm my time for an interview...

If this person was at the top of my list before an interview or my current candidates that I have interviewed are all meh, I might entertain that.
Otherwise, nope.

Actually here's a question. If I see people post anything political, positive/negative on LinkedIn - in my mind, I grow a strong bias that the person is not hireable.
I just hate that platform, and what it's become, which is facebook lite.

Oh I don’t attend both. That’s asinine. I meant I’m double/tripled booked most of my day

That was my day today. I spent the first 10 minutes reorganizing the calendar and seeing what meetings could move. nuts.

My new gig is in the office. I prefer wfh, but it's a 4 minute drive so it's not the end of the world. That said, I do not miss my calendar being booked with WebEx meetings every hour of every day for "catch-ups" and "check-ins"

Catch up and check ins are emails in my department. Bullet your **** out in an email and save us all the 30 minutes
Job and General Employment Thread
Yea, if I feel like I'm getting check-ins too frequently, I often marked those as tentative and let them reach out if it's truly critical or not.

They are both recurring events with sort of different sets of 'all hands' attendees. (One was for all my little company, including the GM and EVPs; the other was for all Legal across the entire org - like 130 attendees - including the GC and several of his capos that I was specifically added to by my boss.) This is the first instance they overlapped.
I took my earbud out after about 20 seconds of the cacophony.

I've got another month or so until vacation, but I have never been this mentally/emotionally ready to just peace out for a week.

I have a bi weekly timesheet reminder that an admin put on our whole department’s calendars probably 12 years ago. Has never changed in that time. Of 27 people on the distribution:
9 are still with the company
At least 3 are dead
Timesheets still due the same time every other week.
