I started a new job 3 weeks ago and discovered there’s a mothers club in the office. They all come in on the same day and started chatting loudly as soon as they walk in the door. Then non stop talking all day about their kids and anything else related to their kids 🙄🙄

I used to work in a design oriented industry and yes it was very common to comment on / receive comments on the appearance (clothing, hair, glasses, shoes etc). My last job was full of engineers and a lot of male, and nobody seems to care what you look like. My current job has a lot of female in the office and they do tend to notice more and do make comments on what each other’s wearing.

I usually just say thanks and compliment on something they wear/ have and then move on. It’s almost like “morning, how are you?” Type of small talk.

You would think payroll could have scheduled the payment a day earlier so it arrives in people’s account on time?! It’s not like they need to manually process everyone’s pay… hope it gets to you today !!

I don’t think I would ever feel an earthquake at that scale unless it happens when I’m awake😳

We have our team wiki on Onenote, but I don’t think you can track who’s edited. I’ve also had a couple of Onenote pages that just crashed for no reason and the IT team couldn’t even recover any of it. So if you are going to use Onenote, maybe have some sort of backup just in case. My previous job had everything on SharePoint and it worked quite well.
