I was furloughed yet it doesn’t start until Friday. Per the VPs, this week we have to “transfer our knowledge” to our bosses. Bosses who haven’t been on these projects. Any advice?

Be kind. Who what when where why- simple short bullet facts per project. And with this kind actionable info and knowledge transfer you’ll be their first call when this is over. Very sorry to hear you’ve been furloughed and hope it’s over soon.

Thank you! Great points. It’s difficult to remove emotion when you are so passionate about the work.

Do your best to prepare your projects to be in their best shape when you come back to them. That’s the professional thing to do. Your bosses will take note.

As a boss who is losing a majority of their team, know that it hurts on the other side too. In different ways, sure. But losing people you care about to something out of your control really just fucking sucks. Especially when you’ve worked so hard to build a team.

My advice is to just do your best to just be kind to the people around you during this time. Go the extra mile. Do the extra work. Be the best version of yourself.

Do your part. Keep a paper trail showing you did your part. Leave out key knowledge you have that wouldn't be known by anyone else, the shit literally only in your head, so it breaks without you. Your 'golden touch' will be leverage later, but don't admit you left stuff out.

This is very bad advice

I’ve been working for my State Farm agency as a team member for 2 years. I am licensed in property and casualty as well as life and health, but only make $13 an hour. I technically can make bonuses but I’m not supposed to dig into a sale and I have to send it to a sales rep (I am service and retention mostly). My boss also has me running a retired agents office until a new one is chosen (its an hour away with no pay increase or mileage pay). Also, no benefits! Should I start job searching?

I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
