If nothing else is dropping out, it's probably SCSI-related (Shitty Corporate Skype Infrastructure). We've been suffering from it all year.

Be responsive. Don't wait to be assigned tasks. Find someone one level above you and try to perform at that level. Don't be annoyed when senior guys ask you to get coffee or pickup / order lunch or make dinner reservations.

Wtf is d2 talking about? In any case, I didn't have this problem at my old place. Nothing else seems to be dropping. Just will have to use old school dial in I guess

Yeah what's D2 up to?

Yeah I usually do the same, but client organizing this meeting series is based in EMEA and it always fails. My number and country code are in there correctly, so have no idea what's going on.

Think d2 was responding to another thread
