He did help understand a little about the complex situation were the West is into

2019-01-08 20:54:00 UTC  

Sometimes..... I imagine if I could do the same with the MSM from here

2019-01-08 20:54:11 UTC  

need some advice:

2019-01-08 20:54:47 UTC  

Tech, is always complex to me but I figure it out lol

2019-01-08 20:58:02 UTC  

started my job today and turns out they have no clue about tech - they'd be impressed by formulas in excel. i am able to do data analysis with python and am learning how to make predictive models using such, i also have experience with database management and performance tuning - i'm planning to work at this place for 9 months, then i'll study CS at uni (they don't know this) - how many months should i 'play dumb' for? i want to walk away from this job with two bullet points on my resume such as "increased DB query response time by x%" and "developed a predictive model that was used by senior management and contributed to x% growth during Q3"

?

2019-01-08 20:58:16 UTC  

sorry for the long description

2019-01-08 20:59:06 UTC  

@JDB here's the thing, if you do too much this early, you'll screw yourself in the long run

2019-01-08 20:59:07 UTC  

Play dumb for as long as you can.

2019-01-08 20:59:21 UTC  

I know what excel is

2019-01-08 20:59:46 UTC  

Don't leave 1 Job til you have another is what I say

2019-01-08 21:00:08 UTC  

Also, if they request a task that you can do in a day, say that you gona take 3 days to make it

2019-01-08 21:00:40 UTC  

yeah exactly - today during our meeting he said that 'i'd really like you to use excel and some pivottables to create a weekly report for me every day' - i got excited and mentioned that i could create a predictive model, luckily he didn't take any of it in and yawned and then moved on - i then realised that i shouldn't try too much till i'm close to leaving

2019-01-08 21:00:58 UTC  

@Kazemaru will do ty

2019-01-08 21:01:25 UTC

2019-01-08 21:01:29 UTC

2019-01-08 21:01:49 UTC  

Just say: "I can do it, but its not going to be fast"

2019-01-08 21:02:59 UTC  

@JDB then I say everyone has to take it in the ass every once in a while, just don't get used to it.

2019-01-08 21:03:17 UTC

And yw

2019-01-08 21:04:38 UTC  

CS is computer science?

2019-01-08 21:04:50 UTC  

@JDB never let on to the fact you know any more than they ask of you

2019-01-08 21:05:15 UTC  

Right be only as smart as you have to

2019-01-08 21:06:50 UTC  

Especially if you intend on it being temporary, adequacy is the key to hassle free temporary work

2019-01-08 21:12:52 UTC  

CS = computer science and yeah you're right - gonna be a relaxing 9 month vacation lol

2019-01-08 21:29:32 UTC  

Sorry I went quiet in chat a while ago, my family showed up at the door and my dad stated reading the chat on screen about the "sex dolls" and twitch so I had to throw the PC on sleep mode.

2019-01-08 21:30:07 UTC
