Q: has the meaning of 'trolling' changed?

A: Not that I am aware of, although misuse of the word has increased since it was coined. This is only because internet use has increased by at least three orders of magnitude since the mid-1990s, so that the potential for misuse has increased proportionately.

Lock thread.

these voices in my head are they trolls or are they the echoes of the many starved employees that have long since fallen silent

there is no easy way to say this, but i strongly encourage everyone to check your spam folder. there are some pretty important emails from finance from two months ago, i'm not sure anyone saw it, and it's due thursday

Id like to thank each of you for coming today, and, indeed, for the hard work each of you has contributed to our mission and goals this year.

Someone once said "I have a dream".

I, too, have a dream. A dream that our organisation will soon be free of paper-based timesheets and the associated issues that caused the unfortunate ..... events....of August 2019.

I'd like to take this moment to acknowledge and remember our departed colleagues, and to express our determination to support fully the efforts to find those still missing.

We will, as and organisation, emerge stronger, leaner and more focused than ever as a result of this tough fiscal year.

There is pizza and beer in 8C.

Thank you again.

Thank you all for coming today, particular thanks to those of you who have dialled in.

Somebody once said "look on my works, ye mighty, and despair".

Well I, too, have looked upon my works, and despaired.

I would like for you all to be the first to know that I am stepping aside from my position with immediate effect.

Bill, whom you will all remember from Bill's out of office message, will be returning from honeymoon in order to step into the role.

I realise that this will leave many of you wondering about the ongoing feasibility of the ongoing project to bring the power of the cloud to our timesheet approvals process.

I can only express my profound regret. May God have mercy on your souls.

There will be pizza and beer in 8C

Hey John,

When Bill gets back can you let him know there is an email chain with hundreds of recipients titled "RE: Bill's Wife"? I'm trying to get off of the list but people keep on replying all. I keep on emailing his wife on their honeymoon to try to get a hold of Bill, but I think she may have blocked me after the last time this happened.

Thanks!

Hi to whom it concerns,

The toilets are overflowing on 2. I warned management this would happen but they said they had a maintenance guy and it looked fine.

Also who do i give the dry cleaning bill as this caused damage to my outfit.

Expecting this to be prioritized as a loyal member of the company.

i believe the toilets are dmac's responsibility

there was a meeting about it that he didn't attend

Karl Malone, Monday, 12 August 2019 21:09 (four years ago) link

Neanderthal,

Can I get a timeline on a) when you’re predicted the toilet disaster vs b) when the toilet disaster occurred. If the two time stamps are within 10 minutes of each other, then you can flush your career....down the toilet. Because of all the poop. Yeow!!!

Karl Malone, Monday, 12 August 2019 21:14 (four years ago) link

It's ok, I went to HR with the evidence

Hi Brian,

See above for the mail discussed earlier. Name, timestamp and intent to mock/undermine all clear.

As noted previously, I've had difficulties with this person forwarding me unwanted reports and timesheets for some time now and I feel, though admittedly I'm not an expert, that he may be "trolling" me through the use of the company's telecommunications infrastructure.

I trust that you will take this ongoing issue appropriately seriously.

Apologies again about blocking the toilets. I can confirm that I now understand that they are not the proper disposal mechanism for unwanted timesheets and the issue won't arise again.

Best,

Darragh

phil neville jacket (darraghmac), Monday, 12 August 2019 21:38 (four years ago) link
