Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

One of the few advantages I can think of is actually being able to talk to be outside your department and learn additional skills. It helped me transition to another job in the company. I couldn't do that remote because the work was not related to pc with internet. Of course that's well beyond normal office worker.

Second is dealing with belligerent ppl outside your dept. Some ppl are being dicks in teams meeting and you go find them and ask them wtf to their face.

Third is again dealing with idiots who refuse to do their jobs and stand in their cubicle until they do.

Thats about it. So 2/3 of those are just because someone is not cooperating wasting ppls time.
