Ask if you could help with business development or firm initiatives, pick up the phone to connect with directors or partners, learn a new skill for your engagements, read up on your industry or global news, etc etc. Boom, that’s a couple hours right there
Up to you to make the most of your time no matter what the business environment is. Be grateful you have a job that currently pays you to sit around waiting for work and for you to actually feel annoyed about it. Periodically make sure your computer remains in “active mode” while you...Read a book. Watch Netflix. Work out. Call up a friend or family member. Paint. Build a shelf. Foster a dog. Learn how to roast a duck. Seriously there are endless possibilities.
I’ve actually been cooking a lot more! Made homemade enchiladas last week and meatballs this week. Just saying I like helping the team out and hate the sidelines is all!

Just get a mouse mover off Amazon if you are so inclined to have your presence show available and online all the time.
Take some online classes to develop your skills 😉
Yas! 🤗 I am doing Tableau training although it is very informal (i.e. YouTube tutorials).

Same boat and I’m loving it! Been studying so much for my certification exam!
And here I am drained after long hours every day with no mental energy to study for certs that are required by eoy for me.
You all really just go straight for the throat. Happy to have a job obviously. I’d rather be working busy season hours. I’m just saying it’s frustrating that projects got pushed and I can’t help out. That is it. Not a woah is me, just would rather be helping than sitting the sidelines. Stay safe everyone
I’d be happy to give you some of my team’s work. I got no codes cuz I have no budget, but hey, there’s tons to do!
Capgemini had the initial call about layoffs today. Likely to come down the pipe soon. Count your blessings so far.
Bingo. We all knew it was coming though. Sneaky bastards.
