It is the same thing. In our case it's not attached to the seniority. The person ending their shifts replays its incident when there has been one, with the person who is taking the pager after them. We are deeper in the infrastructure so we don't have customers but we roleplay stakeholders (lead/head, principals, developer). My favorite is the person who has experienced something wrong but it is only this person and bad luck

I like Hope is Not a Plan but it is a bit depressing.
I would like something to release the pressure of work. Something in the mood of Eat the Reich or Blades in the Dark/CBR+PNK. But I couldn't find a good game. Corp Borg has been a bit disappointing.

you haven't had a work meeting with me

Yeah, I think the goal is to eventually make it irrespective of seniority, but right now he's the only one with 15+ years of institutional knowledge on the application, so he's trying to pass on as much as he can to reduce our bus factor.

I get her username reference! Gnome Anne’s Inn from Quest for Glory V: Dragon Fire.

The rule of cool helps with honesty too.

My team knew well in advance that we would be short-staffed on the day the Switch 2 released.

Fuck a dragon?
What does that even mean?

You put ANYTHING in a DnD and you better be prepared for your players to fight it or fuck it and usually both

If a murder hobo is someone who kills everything in the game, what do you call someone who fucks everything in the game?

Not sure if you're really asking or if its rhetorical, so forgive me if I'm way off, but in doubt it is a reference to how rpg players (of the tabletop kind) will (try to) do inane shit at some point in any given game, such as fucking a dragon. Hence the great overlap between the respective skillsets of managers and dungeon masters. And I assume parents of toddlers.

I live in a set of apartments (60 in all). Once a year we have an "AGM" where everyone's supposed to show up, and we go over stuff like the resident's association finances, and plans for future works and changes to policies. (e.g. we had to remove a tree because it died, or the council want to put parking restrictions in our neighborhood, or the bike sheds need repainting, etc.)

It's not really as oppressive as a HOA, because your interaction with it is once-a-year, and if you have an issue you just email the people running the committee, you don't really have to contend with constant complaints and jockeying about whether your driveway is tidy enough or any of that nightmare stuff... but the once-a-year-meeting can sometimes drag on for hours and it's very tiring.

There's sometimes a discussion around an issue before we vote on it. Sometimes particularly beligerant residents get into circular arguments where they're not listening to each other, and neither of them are going to change their mind, they're just taking up air in the room going back and forth and making no progress, sometimes the argument is in spite of a lack of needed information and everyone is just speculating on what might happen etc etc.

From my extensive time DMming, more than anything else, it's become very easy to spot when such discussions have no chance of resulting in a productive outcome, and I've started to notice that a quick interjection that summarizes the situation and suggest we move on and deal with it via email, is invaluable. "Look, we don't know yet if the change to the renter's rights bill is going to pass at all, or what exactly it'll contain. We should wait for that before trying to figure out how to handle it." or "The motion we're discussing is for the committee to research how much this installation will cost, not whether or not we're going to do it." or "That information sounds useful, you should email it to the committee after the meeting so they can make sure it's considered."

I think, just having anyone in the room who's focused on staying on task can save you a huge amount of time, in basically any group-discussion forum. Our AGMs are almost an hour shorter now, and there's an increasing number of attendees who are on board with my philosophy of "are we going to be able to solve this now? no? email the committee and move on."

Living with Louie Dog's the only way to stay sane

Most jobs are easy.

Most people in positions of power are literally too lazy to work.
