I don't follow the conventions of grammar in this posts. Think more stream of consciousness without the stream.

I used to have a desk in the university staff room at work. During Lockdown someone helped themselves to my two china mugs. People insisted they must be somewhere and that I’d find them. I never did. At the end of last academic year we were asked to clear our desks for renovations to make the office bigger. To accommodate new staff. When we returned there were be no personal desks. We…

I'm thinking of those Amazon Hub locations where you can pick up a package somewhere else if you're worried about porch pirates. Today I'll go hot-desk at the hub on 7th Street. Tomorrow I might go hot-desk at the hub on Poplar Avenue. And so on. Which... WTH? Who would find that fun? It'd have to be someone highly extroverted and who prefers to work like a nomad. Personally I would find it maddening. Why would I pack my stuff in a backpack and flit around to office hubs when I could have just worked from my home office?

Computer Aided Facility Management

CAFM stands for computer-assisted facility management. By centralising all relevant data, CAFM software is clearly intended to promote efficient facilities management, as its goal has been made clear. The CAFM technology combines concepts from business administration, behavioural science, architecture, and engineering to increase corporate productivity. It is useful for monitoring and reporting on the normal operation of a facility. Business asset and facility management (CAFM), despite its complexity, can be summed up as the management of any kind of commercial structure or facility.

[csuitebitches]

Hi, I’ve a bit of a situation at work. I just joined my new department in December, and I found out that we’re hotdesking. Meaning desks are first come first served. We have two groups A & B, within the department. I’m in A. When I first came in I picked a desk to sit at that didn’t have any personal belongings on it. So I sat there for the rest of December. There’s this colleague from B who was nice to me for the first few weeks. And she mentioned that she used to sit at the desk I was at. I didn’t think anything of it cos she made it sound like a casual comment. And then in the first week of January, I came to work and found that that usual table had been taken over by her. Terribly messy. I didn’t make a big deal and sat at another desk. Then the next day when I got to sit at the desk she came over and was really paggro about her things being there (I didn’t touch them) and her having sat there before. I didn’t want to start a fight in the office so I nicely told her I didn’t touch her things while saying that I’m aware we’re hotdesking. She walked off. Over the next week it was tense and she was really cold and ignorant towards me. Then last week, she took over that desk the whole week. I had nowhere to sit but I just took my things and moved to a table far away from my colleagues. She kept walking past my desk on purpose that week. Ultimately, my question is…how do I navigate this if she picks on me in the office again? It’s kinda affecting my mindset when I go into work, and work is already stressful. I also don’t want to be seated away from my colleagues because it affects rapport building and discussions. I’m new, I can’t be seated away from them. One solution is getting to office really early to secure the desk but I hate making this a competition because it’s not! I don’t want to start my day like this fighting with some colleague who thinks she can bully me because I’m new and she’s higher up the pecking order. Would really appreciate your advice, please. :(

its a desk.

Pick another one.

🧙‍♂️ FELLOW TUMBLR ANIMATORS:

If you're using Adobe Animate on an iMac and you have the issue of frameskipping/lag when using the timeline, YOU ARE NOT ALONE AND ALSO I BRING HOPE AND AN END TO YOUR PLIGHT!!

So I switched to Animate 2021 from Flash CS5.5 last week because the autosaver took 45 seconds to back up and using my laptop while hotdesking I realised its only 6 seconds save time on AA2021. That really adds up when you autosave every six minutes because Animate is unreliable and crashes frequently.

But alas. My woes were just beginning. Specifically the woes that look like this:

I thought this was because my iMac has only 8gb of RAM and unfortunately its the kind you can't install upgrades to, so I basically thought I was just fucked. But it turns out this is a problem with all 4k/5k Apple computers, because Animate is terribly optimised and its vector system was never designed to run on HD machines. Because Animate is worse than Flash and keeps getting worse with every successive build.

BUT FEAR NOT!!! there IS a workaround:

If you go to apps and get info on Animate, then and then check open in low resolution, THEN when you reopen Animate it'll run buttery smooth again (though it will look slightly soft-focus because of pixel interpolation). AFAIK this option is only available on Catalina-Ventura, however Ventura onwards allow you to change your native resolution to be lower (Catalina, for whatever godforsaken reason, does not have this option).

FINALLY, if you're still on beautiful beloved Mojave, DO NOT UPGRADE UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO!! Catalina ended 32 bit program support which means you can't run Flash CS5.5 anymore (you can install it on the latest Mojave even if it gives you an out of date error, you just gotta open package contents on the installer -- the files are on archive.org and there's at least one good jailbreaker out there in the usual places for Mac).

DOUBLE FINALLY, if you're not a veteran of Flash/Animate who pairbonded with it from childhood, USE KRITA or TOONBOOM HARMONY or LITERALLY any other software. Adobe software legitimately keeps getting worse and worse and Animate is by FAR the worst of all of them. It is so much better to learn a new workstation and be a bit slower for a couple months than locked into the worst company of all time that uses predatory pricing tactics and keeps getting worse and worse with every build. and also if you don't use Animate or Mac computers, please share this anyway so no one else has to skulk around on the internet feeling like giving up, looking for cheap busted iMacs with cracks on the screen because they think they need to shell out to continue making cartoons. Thank you for listening 🧙‍♂️✨💖

"#also what kind of work place doesn't have assigned desks??????" Mine no longer does! Since most people work from home at least some of the week now, we were told all desks would be hotdesking and we could no longer have assigned desks, though everyone mostly agrees to just... respect where folks Usually Sit. (I work in the office 5 days a week and put my foot down about it ngl.) But even prepandemic, hotdesking is not uncommon in a lot of UK offices. (And when I worked in a call centre it was 100% the norm, we never got a desk.) Sorry I just saw your tag and was like OH I CAN EXPLAIN THIS

oh that's interesting! I've never seen or even heard of that before. I guess in theory it makes sense if you're not bringing a lot of odds and ends into the office....

(looks at my current cubical, which is covered in mail, notes, flowers, photos, moisturizer, packs of gum, and my last week's workload of folders)

but. my STUFF. how do I work without my STUFF.
