04:15 schestowitz[TR2]; Not to make excuses, but interpersonal relations have never been well-understood. In my own life I've seen marriages, divorces, re-marriages, re-divorces, "modern families" (i.e. blended...like in the TV show), what have you. Sometimes the parent is beloved, but just as often the parent is NOT beloved...sometimes the parent is utterly hated by the employee. Is the parent biological? A step-parent? Adoptive? He-l if I know. What I d
04:15 schestowitz[TR2]; o know is that if I were a manager, if someone's parent or significant other or whatever died I would keep a respectful distance, and not say a word. Death is a very personal thing, after all, and sometimes keeping your distance is the very, very, very BEST course of action.
04:15 schestowitz[TR2]; The OP says that they had been working for the manager for just one month. That's just one paycheck's worth of time...and they expect the manager to automatically send something to the funeral home? Expect whatever you want I guess, but personally I wouldn't expect anything other than a few days off to take care of the funeral and the parent's final affairs. It's easy to criticize IBM management for their misdeeds, but an automatic
04:15 schestowitz[TR2]; judgement of "pathetic and disrespectful" may be a bit too much.

09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [00:50] <Source> He also post on Twitter about Austrian economics a lot
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [00:50] <Source> It's kind a hard to pick up on that and less you know what he's talking about
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [00:51] <Source> I certainly noticed
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [00:51] <Source> He is very much obsessed with Tyler Cowan [00:51] <Source> Which was a big stupid thing that Alex tried to bully me about
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [00:54] <Source> Actually it wasn't little sis where I found that let me look and get you an actual website[00:55] <Source> https://littlesis.org/person/378201-Nat_Friedman
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [00:56] <schestowitz> didn't know
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [00:57] <Source> Yeah that's right super interesting

09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [00:57] <Source> https://techinquiry.org/
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [00:57] <Source> Also really useful
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [01:09] <Source> You really should look at the Honeywell link though[01:09] <schestowitz> honeycomb?
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [01:09] <Source> If Nat has a record of saying hey friend start a company and it will get acquired [01:10] <Source> http://honeycomb.io
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [01:10] <schestowitz> yes
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [01:10] <Source> Charity majors who threatened me
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [01:10] <Source> If you add her handle and Nat's you'll find it[01:12] <Source> Sorry that didn't make sense if you search for @mipsytipsy[01:13] <Source> And @natfriedman
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [01:13] <Source> You'll be able to see that they've had a very long relationship
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [01:13] <Source> Professionally
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [01:13] <schestowitz> is friendman still at microsoft AT ALL?

09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [01:15] <Source> What I'm saying is that they started the company and they're all close to Nat[01:15] <Source> And Nat said that he would buy Alex his company if he did it[01:15] <Source> Alex was a new place to start a company whenever that was floated[01:16] <Source> No place
09:13 schestowitz[TR2]; [01:18] <Source> So my question is did charity, nat and chris try the same thing[01:18] <Source> Granted that group actually seems more credible putting together a reasonable product
