I got promoted to senior developer - YAY!
-
Yeah, so I was actually a senior developer when I left a job in 2006 but after a failed business started as a junior in a different area in 2009. There were no promotions here prior to 2015 until we got a new boss's boss who actually likes to reward his good employees.
But I'm not allowed to publicly say anything yet. So I want to do so relatively anonymously.
I'm not very good at keeping secrets.

Congratulations. Welcome to the world of having recruiters bugging you all the time to leave your post for their (maybe) greener pastures ;)

Promotion sounds like it is a "to the cupcakes thread with you!" thing.

I tend to stay away from the very long threads and even more so the ones that are so general I cannot tell what they are about.

Yeah, I do not think I have ever gotten a job through a recruiter. I've talked to many and interviewed with a few when I was looking at various times but it has never worked out.
I've done reasonably in 18 years I have probably had less than 15 interviews ever. I also have stayed at jobs for awhile.

she gives you cupcakes
DISCLAIMER: All cupcakes are delivered as digital cupcakes. No returns. Warranty void if fondant is removed.

The cupcakes thread is basically:
Yay thingy!
[picture of a cupcake somehow related]

If I knew that I wouldn't have created this thread.
Though I did get "Mediocre Topic" and "Nice Topic" badges.
What do I have to do to get to the lounge?!?!?!
-
You should request a cupcake for that spot on description
-
Ask shadowmod for your trust stats. They show how far you are from the magic goal posts

message @shadowmod with "trust [username]" and it will tell you

<!-- Posted by SockBot 0.99.0 "Omega Olivia" (+1:b82af82) on behalf of @PJH --></blockquote> hmm @karla, you seem to be missing just on posts read. should be able to fix that by going into some of the long threads you've been avoiding and holding <kbd>Page Down</kbd> or if you like you can have @sockbot take care of that by seting up a pair of cyberpants to read things for you

Thank you. I was trying to translate...but I am so far less active than you. It was hard to compare.
-
Yes mistress U+1F498, I shall appear as summoned.
-
@karla, note that some of the long threads are funny or interesting (like good ideas, bad ideas, and funny stuff) so you may want to actually try looking at things there. The Status thread is a good one to skip stuff on if you've not been keeping up on it as old stuff is old and no longer that relevant.
Though you have something like 7k posts to "read" so maybe you want to do a skippy "hold down page down" thing on a couple of the threads.

I've read some of the those. But then it just seem too hard to keep up.

Thank you. I was trying to translate...
the numbers are in the form of
current/limit
basically if the fraction is above 1 you're good (except for the flags, they're marked as max so you want those as low as possible)

And meanwhile, Discurse decides that now you've read to the very end of the whole thread, despite a few thousand posts up higher that still have that pale blue unread dot if jellypotato should happen to run you into any of them.
Thank you. I was trying to translate...
Each criterion is given, then your activity and the minimum activity are given. So:
Visits: 61/50
In the last 100 (days?), you've visited 61 times, and the minimum is 50. So you meet that requirement.
Posts Read: 14085/22976
...you've read around 14k posts, and the minimum is about 23k. So you need to read a few thousand more posts.
Once you're above all of the requirements, you're automatically promoted.
Also, if you want to use it, the shadowmod queries thread is . As an added bonus, it's around 7k posts, so if you haven't been there before then that alone would get you pretty close to the TL3 requirement.
Or, you can send a PM... just
trust
doesn't work, though, and supposedly!trust
should work if it's a PM but it doesn't seem to.@shadowmod trust
is the only thing that seems to work, although it usually seems to make him reply twice if you send it in a PM.
-

that still happens?
daaang. i thought i fixed that bug ages ago!
-
I literally just tried it, and yeah.
-
hu-uh.... well i'll add that to the list of things to look into.
-
*shrug*, well, it never really bothers me, it just seems rather inefficient because I'm sure he probably has to run all of those queries twice. But that's not my problem, so....
-
I derailed my own thread.

Actually, the last cupcakes I received tasted like plastic and dust.

Wow. So I didn't have do defeat a current resident of The Lounge in single combat in order to get in?
Why didn't anybody tell me that before?
-
Common knowledge in the Lounge?
-
because it was amusing
-
Well, it's not exactly a secret.
-
Two promotions in one thread. Nice.
-
Common knowledge in the Lounge?
What is the lounge like? Is it a place of Enlightenment, angels, rainbows and butterflies, or is it pretty much the same as what we see in the rest of WTDWTF?
-

Like that, but with jucier, more personal stories. And screenshots.
And of course, the free vodka.

No, we banned Samsung from the Lounge.
It looks like Samsung has not posted anything: https://what.thedailywtf.com/users/samsung/badges
So, yes, that is a sign of Enlightenment.
-
I want to see the juicer stories, but I don't want to have to keep track of more threads when there's already too many to keep track of.
