Do any of you keep a brag book and is it public?

I have a brag book via a link on my LinkedIn page that shows all of the essential positive feedback I received from colleagues, different vendors I’ve worked with and Google and yelp reviews?

Do you know if it’s bad practice to post feedback you’ve received from your company internally such a shout out or positive feedback from emails?

In the case above, I partially blur out those people‘s names such as their last name, but keep the full name of people like my HR person or the boss of my company

Is Commerical real estate better than apartment/hoa management?

Was considering the switch but wanted to get people’s experience?

My assumption off top is that it would be less drama than dealing with homeowners, HOA boards or tenants

Onsite Residents Managers….if they terminate you, do they immediately kick you out of the unit?

I see clauses in my contract that state if we ever cut ties with that I have seven days to relocate.

That doesn’t seem feasible or fair or likely to play out that way in real time. I feel like you need at least thirty days.

I wanted to hear people’s experience with this if when they part ways with you do they
- enforce it that fast,
- do you occupy the unit until they find a replacement?
- do they try to force a lease on you?
- are they lenient in the transition
- since there is no official onsite resident and you still occupy the unit, can you argue that they don’t have one and you occupy the unit and can’t be charged rent

Curious to here your stories

EDIT: This is on Los Angeles, California

How much of your own created work can a job claim as proprietary?

I have various ideas that I think about as it relates to my job that isn’t specific to my job and I haven’t shared all of those ideas. Some of them I’ve created while on the clock other ideas I experiment with in my own personal time they can apply directly to my job or outside of my job or their competitors.

I want to know how much of the work I performed or created can be claimed by my job as proprietary, and if such provisions in a contract that states such would be enforceable?

Anyone have experience with this and what that ended up looking like in real time

EDIT: also if I decided to make a version of that proprietary item by changing the code or branding etc, would that be a problem? Or not so much if it’s internal only?

What if I talked about ideas I use in my own personal productivity that I said could be scalable but hasn’t come to fruition yet?

If a job is trying to replace you, how do they seek out candidates?

My assumption is that they can’t really post on job websites because a smart employee can frequent places like ZipRecruiter, Indeed, etc and see that their employer is hiring for your position.

Has anyone ever been replaced and found out the means in which they found your replacement?

Not too long ago, I was reviewing all of the letters that my company sends out to the owners, things like violation, letters, late statements, mass, emails, etc…. And I noticed that they were very bland in nature. I have a design background and thought about color theory and how using a couple of my companies brand colors to have accents pop on the page for a specific and constant information while having a couple framing elements that don’t make it look cheesy or overly designed, and we presented it to our marketing department. We also proposed it for the minutes as well.

My marketing department is very old-school and traditional, and took the position for letters that there shouldn’t be any branding on any letters or correspondence sent from the Management Company unless it has to do with our companies’s information, which is very strange because I’ve seen other prominent HOA property management companies in our industry do this.

The area where I give Creedence is that minutes are legal document so do you want to stay neutral by not putting logos of your property management company within the minutes ideally. But I was thinking subtle things like accent colors for decisions/motions (i.e. APPROVED/DENIED/TABLED) so that when board members review their minutes the decision that was made for a specific topic pop, it was just so happen to be in our brand color.

I wanted to see if any one here may have worked for a Seabreeze, FirstService Residential, Associa, etc and seen these type of elements within their documents, because I don’t want to jump to conclusions, but I feel like a lot of executive leadership and staff and most HOA companies are an older demographic, and have a traditional line of thinking, and may not be comfortable with accepting a modern take that would help important elements in a document pop.

Also, I have suspicions that there may be jealousy in the marketing leadership for me, aiming to pivot into their Laine because a lot of of their marketing materials are very basic or cheesy vectors and improper use of color theory

I know a lot of people out there are familiar with the term, but I’m curious if anyone has seen it described in other words so that is not as straightforward to the employee

Recently an executive leader poisoned the well against me prior to a meeting with my companies president. I’m starting to learn the political, Executive Landscape and it seems cult like.

I wanted to hear your guys stories of people who poisoned the well against you and how you navigated it because it seems like a lot of the paths at this point I have dead ends and not sure if continue to put my time into this job is worth it

In short, are there people who try to reframe your efforts to discredit you?

I was looking at this video and advice she gave and then all of the comments virtually are saying that this is bad advice. But I have a feeling that a lot of people that are saying this is bad advice are an executive leadership roles that are posting on LinkedIn because they have a reputation to consider and may not actually genuinely be telling the truth.

Since we’re on Reddit here and everyone is anonymous here. What are your guys‘s thoughts?

I'm in a specialized role at a company that was recently acquired. The parent company just posted a position that maps almost exactly to what I've been doing at the subsidiary level, same platform and scope, just across their broader portfolio. I'd be a genuinely strong candidate.

The problem is my current employer and the parent organization are closely connected, and my supervisor communicates with their leadership regularly. If I apply and it surfaces before I have an offer, my already uncertain position here gets significantly more complicated. There's also a part of me wondering if the timing of the posting is coincidental or shaped by conversations happening at the leadership level about gaps they're seeing at my company. No way to confirm that.

Someone I trust also raised the possibility that in politically charged environments postings like this sometimes function as informal loyalty tests. I don't know how much weight to give that theory.

Has anyone navigated something like this? What happened? Would you apply?
