I really appreciate how they’re trying to be nice about it
No worries, you’re still a cutie, even in business attire
They’re not trying to be nice, they are being nice about it >:3
Weird, that line made me cringe and seems super unprofessional
This reminds me of how my manager cringed when I made an official internal document that needed to be shared with clients using the shizuku version of crystal.
I dunno, I’d be weirded out if someone used a non anime skinned version of crystal. If this makes you cringe I feel like maybe not cut out for tech sector.
You need to remember that the technical people may not have an issue with it, but the bean counters tend to be more stuffy and upright about shit. And a lot of clients are especially up tight in my experience. Something about paying you money and expecting standard business responses.
I wouldn’t give a shit if I saw that, but I absolutely would not send that up the chain if a junior sent me that screenshot (or I’d crop it down to the most useful info. Last thing I want to do is listen to some asshole c-level complain at me for 20 minutes about professionalism.
You’re probably more senior than this dev.
I’d be weirded out they are running Windows. I no longer trust the technical opinion of anyone that runs that joke of an OS.
Ah yes, because people always have a choice. There’s no way anyone competent would work at a larger company issuing devices with the company standard system running proprietary software that only functions on that system.
I mean, if your company forces it then you don’t have an option. My company uses Windows so I have to use it for work and that’s exactly how I know it’s a joke of an OS. All my personal devices run linux.
Am I into this stuff at all, no
Is that freaking hilarious? Yes
Ahahahaha
I respect the dev, hiyohiyo, so much for this. He gave us something so useful, and he likes these characters, and he’s not ashamed to make the skinned versions and put them up for download.
It’s amusing how things you never expect to be seen by others suddenly go intercontinental because your company likes them. I have a friend who retired from her corporate job about 15 years ago. She had an excel document (that I guess became some sort of super document, I dunno, I’m not into that sort of stuff), and it worked so well for her work that it became the company standard for a gigantic multinational corporation (they’re one of the ones you always hear involved in US wars), and whatever she did couldn’t be changed once she left.
That means she occasionally still gets contacted about her mildly suggestive name for the file. It references testicles and corporate greed in one go round.
👀 what is the file name??
Maybe we should guess and the User could let us know when we are on the right track if they are still reading this thread.
Scrotum chugger is my guess.

It’s really obvious if I say it, and I don’t want to connect her or myself to any online account.
Hmm, let me see if I can let you know (if you already know) that you know it. It was her nickname, then similar to a name of a casino.
Taj Miball
Ball’a’Geo-rgia
Lux-whore (I know not ball themed but I’m looking through a list of LV casinos for clues)
The Scrotosphere
The MGM Grundle
Harriet Palms casino
I know I’m being ridiculous, I don’t actually need to know, just thought it would be fun to get a thread of nut related name guesses.
Kinda based ngl
Boss: Did you mean to use a shirtless picture on your work profile.
Me: Yeah, that was totally on purpose. I didn’t just look through my pictures for a recent head shot and then not notice my nakedness. That would be absurd.
/me changes it as quickly as possible
I had a shirtless incident working at a hardware shop in my early 20s. I was given my work uniform, but I didn’t see any changing room, so I just popped into an empty office to change. It was just a shirt - a 10 second job - no problem. Ripping of my shirt, I heard shouting from the neighbouring office from my new (female) boss: “we have about 3 active cameras in that office, just thought you might want to know.”
In panic I quickly had to decide between apologizing, becoming embarrased or running away. My smart ass brain landed on shouting back “if you see anything you like, speak up!”
I was very that lucky she just found it funny.
I have dreams where I end up shirtless (or worse) at various places I’ve worked in the past pretty often. I don’t think being naked in public would even really bother me anymore because of that. Other than the criminal charges of course.
Share the pic 🥺
Am I the only one that cringed at the last sentence? Seems super inappropriate and unprofessional to call a subordinate a “cutie.”
I always had my day brightened at an old job by emails from this guy in Master Data. His email signature was just MC Hammer lyrics disguised as Bible verses, something like Hammerlonious, 4:16-24. Nobody ever asked him to change it or gave him grief about it, since rather than implement something normal like SAP, the company had decided to roll their own in-house ERP system, and he was the only one who actually knew how a good chunk of it worked.
Do teams photos even show to external orgs?
But business attire is so
drolldull. Even in the Guy Kawasaki was differentiating between the ties (business suits) and t-shirts (techs so skilled that their casual attire was tolerated.Droll means humorous, did you mean to write dull or do you have a different point I am not understanding.
No I meant dull, or drab. Fixed.
Drab + Dull = Droll
The math checks out
Weird they censored the picture, the last time I saw this cycle through the picture wasn’t censored
I had Gonzo in a tux for about 7 years. No one ever even mentioned it to me. How much are people looking at this lol
Report that to HR a week ago
