/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Damn. Dax has a point.
Naw fuck that, if you've got good people on your team, nominate their ass! There's been a weird stigma with that kind of shit as long as I've been in the work force, how it's all just a popularity contest or shitty people always get it cuz they put themselves in.
And that's often legitimately the case, but it's a self fulfilling prophecy if decent work goes unrecognized because the stigma with the awards like employee of the month. Put nominations in for real things that deserve recognition, and the nominations for that will stand out like a sore thumb against the bullshit ones.
And people fucking love recognition! Even the ones who claim they don't need it - you'll make their entire week if you drop that on em out of the blue!
Also many of those kinds of awards come with tangible benefits like cash bonuses, scholarship access, or promotion potential.
The 'losers' get it when no one else is being nominated. Write that shit up!
Fuck awards. If you want your best employees to feel recognised but you can't afford to pay them more, you keep them in the loop on what's going on, you listen to them, you take feedback from them and show them that you care about they have to say.
That's if you have employees. When you're one of the peasants in the fields, best option is to support your coworkers laterally. The recognition is announced from up the chain, but it starts laterally.
Are they just sitting at a table in open space?
And where's his tea apron
2nd place is the first loser.
If you ain't first, you're last!
