Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So how’s it going?

not caring about everything imploding because the people who make decisions don’t understand them, just let the implosion happen?

I could never stop caring about the imploding, but worse was getting blamed for the things you'd warned people about.... which is a big part of why I left IT.

I haven't had that experience. But TBH despite my comments I carefully pick my managers when applying for jobs.

Yeah, it is great when you have a good manager/client. It's just a nightmare if you don't...

There were also other reasons I wanted to get out of IT.. it was definitely the right decision for me!

It's great that it worked out for you :). I tend to jump around jobs so project work works well for me.
