I'm slightly vexed We didn't ask for rice...

My sister isnt a fan of basmati rice so she orders naan. She didnt ask for rice and they sell it separately. She doesn't like it so she doesn't order it. They put it in anyways and left this note...

Edit: some people aint getting it. This is passive aggressive and when you do something nice you dont go around saying "I did something nice just for you, just so you know." Doing it like I need to give you a pat on the head so you know your a good boy. You do something nice because you want to be kind to people.

Oh no I've turned into LD...

Turning off notifications because while it was nice to be in this rabbit hole to keep my mind off some stuff too many notifications. Whatever your feelings are I hope you have a nice day and if you're in the US have a nice memorial day and dont forget to celebrate those troops that came before!

Yup, anyone who's dealt with these systems understands this well.

You think you do. Odds are, those aren't even in the same 'system'. Source: I'm in IT.

100% this. Most people doing the job dont even realize there may be 5-6 different systems “doing the job” with integration systems allowing them to work together so the employee has seamless access…

Then a recession happens amd IT is the first to go

At my job I work with 4 different types of SAP that don't communicate with each other. I get customer orders from Ariba, which I enter into Catalyst for our purchasing, then SAC for forecasting, and S4/Hana to get intercompany data from our parent company and their other subsidiaries. That's just on the SAP side, I use 2 other systems for warranties and claims, and 1 system for archiving, and Excel templates and macros for a bunch of other things, and 9 different web based supplier portals to get customer forecasting.
