Hey, cool! Karl's awesome! I gotta watch that

18:32:20
@punkoff:matrix.orgpunkoffThat one is in a smaller space, propably not recorded18:34:14
@alphapapa:matrix.orgalphapapa

18:35:31
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic Hey all 20:54:01
@alphapapa:matrix.orgalphapapa

mediapathic: welcome

20:54:18
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic I’ve been using org for almost precisely a year 20:54:34
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic My first entry in journal.org is 20 dec 17 20:55:40
@alphapapa:matrix.orgalphapapa

cool!

20:55:48
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

And at the moment I'm using it to write a novel as well as track fiction submissions

20:59:03
@alphapapa:matrix.orgalphapapa

very cool

20:59:21
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

(as well as everything else in my life but those are the most unusual uses I think)

20:59:35
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

oh I guess tracking parts inventory for lights at a nightclub counts as unusual

that sounds blogworthy
21:00:12
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

eh maybe. It's really just a bunch of Properties drawers

21:01:10
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

I schedule for the light department, too, and that actually is more interesting

21:01:46
@vixivix:matrix.orgvixivix joined the room.21:02:16
@alphapapa:matrix.orgalphapapa

vixivix: Welcome.

21:03:42
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

Because it's a cloned with date advance tree that looks like ~ <2018-12-29 Sat> "Name of Event" "Name of Employee" ~ with a bunch of properties drawers for details

21:06:45
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

The properties drawers mean I can make a nice column-view version of the schedule for the boss, and the title being a date means it shows up on my agenda every day

21:07:33
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

so I can remember when I've forgotten to schedule someone and have to show up :)

21:08:00
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

(I am new to management)

21:08:06
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

alphapapa: also thank you for making this room

21:16:06
@alphapapa:matrix.orgalphapapa

It would be interesting to read about someone using Org "in anger" for management of that sort of thing
21:16:53
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

heh. I mean, it kind of was

21:22:22
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

we have scheduling software which is functional, but difficult to, I suppose the phrase would be "sketch" in. It's hard to look at a schedule and see if it makes sense, without confusing everyone

21:23:30
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

plus, it's web based so all that mouse clicking ewwww

21:23:39
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

so I use org to plan it, which means I can use the keyboard like god intended, and only when I like the final result do I have to make with the clicky

21:24:41
@mediapathic:matrix.orgmediapathic

also I get a local copy which, as per previous, goes into my agenda
