Sometimes you need to pull the rip cord, indeed, but it shows huge maturity when they prioritize thinking over just doing.29 Sep 2026 16:42 +0000at://did:plc:3sfab6obfubkclpmxtcs343o/app.bsky.feed.post/3mwobizgrvc2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/bielleogy.bsky.social/post/3mvegnvobmk2bLocal cantina's tap payment system isn't working. I unplug everything, blow on the connectors, reconnect, and it works. Me: "Just gotta go with the ol' Sega Genesis fix route!"

Tech can be great, but learning can't be replaced.

I know there's only so much one person can do, but I hate when I drop the ball when it impacts others.04 Sep 2026 22:59 +0000at://did:plc:3sfab6obfubkclpmxtcs343o/app.bsky.feed.post/3muq2wpcy4c23https://bsky.app/profile/bielleogy.bsky.social/post/3mupsge4ors2wMy entire day today so far has been calming people down who are freaking out over random things that they think are but actually aren't urgent. I guess I'm officially senior faculty now?04 Sep 2026 20:27 +0000at://did:plc:3sfab6obfubkclpmxtcs343o/app.bsky.feed.post/3mupsge4ors2whttps://bsky.app/profile/bielleogy.bsky.social/post/3mukzv2uits2rThis exactly. But we also hate the attempted "gotchas" when people are just trying to flex.

Start the meeting on time. If you need a quorum, tell the group they need to make an effort to be on time. We've gone too far normalizing wasting 10 minutes of people's time every meeting (not to mention inevitably running over).
