Act Like a New Employee Every Day
- idodevops 14y agoConsidering most places I've worked at in the last couple of years, that would mean that every day was comprised of: - Trying to get a working computer and/or network account - Being interrupted every 5 minutes for introductions - Wondering where the hell to get lunch from around here - Filling out paperwork - Reading way too many pages of HR-written 'employee handbooks' and 'acceptable use policies' - Not being given any actual work until after the first day or so, because everyone knows that the first day is a write-off.
- roberto 14y agoTBH he said "act like a new employee", not "act like an employee on his first day of work".
- mikeleeorg 14y agoI find it interesting that he published this article on LinkedIn, as opposed to Google+, his blog, etc. It's cross-posted to Google+, but the article lives in LinkedIn.
