Grandma's 5 Questions for 8/6/20
Posted: Thu Aug 06, 2020 7:46 am
1. Do you have a relative who has the same birthday as you?
2. Yesterday I received an email from somebody in my company's compliance department stating I did not complete a mandatory compliance training "module".
This was the email......
"If you are receiving this email, you have not completed MANDATORY cybersecurity training. Please carve out 30 minutes to complete this training ASAP as it is overdue................."
I was 100% sure I completed it, have the "documentation" that I have completed it, and let it be known (as you can see in the email I will attach below).
I told another co-worker how ridiculous I felt it was to be bothered with this when I am going through so many other "personal" things right now. Apparently the person I said this to told the person who sent me the email - that I was pissed off. I was NOT. Annoyed and inconvenienced during a difficult day yesterday? Sure. "Pissed off"? No. Well, the person who sent me the original email must have reached out to a 3rd person because I received an email from a 3rd person basically saying that I need to realize mistakes happen, it was wrong for me to be "angry" at the person, and I should not have sent a disrespectful email in regards to the situation. WHAT? Basically I was being reprimanded for doing NOTHING wrong.
This was the exact email that I had sent........
Hi Jennifer.
I assume I am receiving this message in error being that I have completed the training and the site confirms as such.
Please let me know.
Thank you!
So, my question is, do I just drop it or do I really want to deal with all 3 people AND also involve their supervisors (heads of HR and Compliance) and clarify everything as well as express that I am not happy I had to experience ALL of this yesterday - when NONE of it should have occurred?
3. If you could take a year off from work (and still get paid) but had to go back to school for an entire school year and Covid-19 did not exist, what "grade" (Kindergarten through Senior year of college undergrad) would you go back to?
4. Assuming you at least occasionally drink bottled water, if you have a choice, which bottled water is your preference?
5. Original question was a FAIL. Here is a new #5.
Have you or (someone else) taken a photo of yourself in the past 10 days?
