WEBVTT
1 00:09:55.950 ⇒ 00:09:56.919 Robert Tseng: Hey, guys.
2 00:09:59.960 ⇒ 00:10:01.010 Aakash Tandel: Hey, Robert, how’s it going
3 00:10:02.820 ⇒ 00:10:08.860 Robert Tseng: Good trying to catch up on some client stuff
4 00:10:11.760 ⇒ 00:10:12.590 Aakash Tandel: Yeah.
5 00:10:18.150 ⇒ 00:10:23.830 Robert Tseng: Then I’ll be heading to the airport in a couple of hours. I think I think Utam’s on his way to the airport as well
6 00:10:23.830 ⇒ 00:10:29.839 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, he said, that I guess we can
7 00:10:29.990 ⇒ 00:10:45.079 Aakash Tandel: probably just keep this quick. I know you. You followed up the conversation with Josh on, was it 2 days ago yesterday? Wednesday? And sound like the allocation should come down a little bit for
8 00:10:45.380 ⇒ 00:10:46.550 Aakash Tandel: the project
9 00:10:48.040 ⇒ 00:10:55.260 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I mean, it’s already been coming down. But yeah, it doesn’t look like we’re gonna increase. Seems like he doesn’t want to put more budget into it. So we’re not gonna go up
10 00:10:57.190 ⇒ 00:11:00.520 Aakash Tandel: Let me check operating and see what that has.
11 00:11:04.750 ⇒ 00:11:08.049 Aakash Tandel: I can also share my screen. So we’re all looking at the same thing.
12 00:11:12.000 ⇒ 00:11:16.729 Robert Tseng: I’ll just be in the background like kind of. So just call me out if you need anything
13 00:11:16.730 ⇒ 00:11:23.710 Aakash Tandel: Okay, cool. Let me find this thing.
14 00:11:26.710 ⇒ 00:11:31.199 Aakash Tandel: Okay, what’s today? Today’s the 3.rd Yep, okay. So
15 00:11:31.740 ⇒ 00:11:36.060 Aakash Tandel: this is that week. So next week we have.
16 00:11:36.940 ⇒ 00:11:44.109 Aakash Tandel: Okay. So you’re on there. I’m not gonna really count your eyes like project work.
17 00:11:44.420 ⇒ 00:11:46.319 Aakash Tandel: even though we should probably count to you.
18 00:11:49.060 ⇒ 00:11:51.970 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I mean, maybe just like.
19 00:11:53.430 ⇒ 00:11:58.089 Robert Tseng: well, I don’t know how you think you should, I bet. Like, yeah, I don’t bill my time. But like.
20 00:11:58.300 ⇒ 00:12:04.973 Robert Tseng: yeah, maybe it still gives us a sense of like, how much time we need to went back
21 00:12:05.930 ⇒ 00:12:09.930 Robert Tseng: like my allocation kind of matters. I I want to track that as well like. How do we get
22 00:12:09.930 ⇒ 00:12:10.440 Aakash Tandel: I know.
23 00:12:10.470 ⇒ 00:12:12.080 Robert Tseng: Out of stuff. More. Yeah.
24 00:12:12.270 ⇒ 00:12:15.060 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, I agree. I I cause I’ve been
25 00:12:15.190 ⇒ 00:12:26.629 Aakash Tandel: wrestling with like, do I track hours to? I think, like we should track your hours to like. If you’re working on Job, you work to to track it as such, because otherwise we don’t have an accurate view of how much
26 00:12:26.730 ⇒ 00:12:28.539 Aakash Tandel: work is being put on
27 00:12:28.540 ⇒ 00:12:29.280 Robert Tseng: Totally.
28 00:12:29.510 ⇒ 00:12:30.390 Aakash Tandel: Project, yeah.
29 00:12:30.390 ⇒ 00:12:33.010 Robert Tseng: And like a man’s like some plans or whatever like, yeah.
30 00:12:33.010 ⇒ 00:12:33.480 Aakash Tandel: Exactly.
31 00:12:33.480 ⇒ 00:12:34.970 Robert Tseng: Push back on stuff like that
32 00:12:34.970 ⇒ 00:12:57.299 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, like his message. Today, I was like, Okay, you have no clue how much? We’re definitely over 22 h. That doesn’t include Robert’s hours. If there’s no way. Yeah. That type of thing. The question I have for Eden moving forward is, we have demolati at 25% of his, I think, full time, and then away shed 75% of his full time.
33 00:12:58.030 ⇒ 00:13:11.389 Aakash Tandel: I don’t think that’s accurately like that. That’s not how it’s been going down. I know oasis had less work to do on that moving forward. Should we just basically not have a wish on there, and only act as like pr review, slash support. If demoline needs it.
34 00:13:18.670 ⇒ 00:13:21.400 Robert Tseng: yeah, I I guess.
35 00:13:22.360 ⇒ 00:13:28.359 Robert Tseng: Well, the reason why we did that at 1st was like we were saying that Eden basically needed a full time. Ae.
36 00:13:29.290 ⇒ 00:13:31.210 Robert Tseng: with all the stuff that they were doing.
37 00:13:31.600 ⇒ 00:13:46.109 Robert Tseng: And that’s why we did 75%, one person, 25%. The other. Yeah. I mean at this point. Anything net new. I’m sending to them a lot. And then a wish is really just doing maintenance of like I mean, he knows, like the marketing data the most. So
38 00:13:46.350 ⇒ 00:13:49.740 Robert Tseng: yeah, I feel like 75% is probably too much for him. But
39 00:13:49.930 ⇒ 00:13:56.800 Robert Tseng: it’s not like we have a shortage of work. It’s just on the A. Side. It’s just a matter of like who we wanna how we wanna spread it. I guess
40 00:13:57.110 ⇒ 00:14:00.010 Aakash Tandel: If anything. The Josh conversation told me
41 00:14:00.140 ⇒ 00:14:06.260 Robert Tseng: Yeah, we definitely don’t need like 2 like the the We should be.
42 00:14:06.740 ⇒ 00:14:15.810 Robert Tseng: More time will be spent on the engineering side, more than the analysis side at this point. So that’s kind of what Josh’s kind of thing told me.
43 00:14:16.930 ⇒ 00:14:22.589 Aakash Tandel: Okay. So maybe we’ll just leave this for now and then see how
44 00:14:23.470 ⇒ 00:14:27.499 Aakash Tandel: I mean, actually, hold on, let me is there? I’m a split.
45 00:14:28.330 ⇒ 00:14:30.590 Aakash Tandel: I’m gonna split this here.
46 00:14:31.550 ⇒ 00:14:33.889 Aakash Tandel: I’m going to pull him down.
47 00:14:34.620 ⇒ 00:14:36.750 Aakash Tandel: How do I edit?
48 00:14:37.560 ⇒ 00:14:39.799 Aakash Tandel: I can pull him down to 50%
49 00:14:42.710 ⇒ 00:14:47.830 Aakash Tandel: so that he’s not. He’s not over now. And likely that this
50 00:14:48.800 ⇒ 00:14:56.300 Aakash Tandel: do we want to know? Demoda is stretched across 4 different projects. That’s fine. I think this looks better, I think, in terms of
51 00:14:58.240 ⇒ 00:15:00.579 Aakash Tandel: hours. Cause that’s 10 h. That’s
52 00:15:00.740 ⇒ 00:15:04.200 Aakash Tandel: 10 h. It’s 20 h of ae work a week.
53 00:15:04.850 ⇒ 00:15:08.650 Aakash Tandel: Or are we trying to build 40% 40 h of ae work a week
54 00:15:12.536 ⇒ 00:15:17.520 Robert Tseng: No, we don’t have to bill 40 h anywhere, I think. Somewhere between 20 to 30 is fine
55 00:15:18.220 ⇒ 00:15:20.139 Aakash Tandel: Cool. Let’s keep this for now.
56 00:15:21.230 ⇒ 00:15:22.960 Aakash Tandel: And Annie’s still.
57 00:15:23.630 ⇒ 00:15:35.500 Aakash Tandel: And he’s basically get a lot of the net new stuff. Sahana’s gonna kind of fall down as as the her workload is finished up. So for next week.
58 00:15:35.840 ⇒ 00:15:39.554 Aakash Tandel: I mean, but this is a hundred percent of 10 h. So that’s fine.
59 00:15:40.850 ⇒ 00:15:43.540 Aakash Tandel: do. I think this is fine for next week?
60 00:15:43.977 ⇒ 00:15:54.129 Aakash Tandel: I think by end of yeah. But this ends like end of April. Basically, I think this makes sense for like that, her work stream to be fully, fully, basically offload to Annie
61 00:15:54.750 ⇒ 00:15:55.370 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
62 00:15:55.370 ⇒ 00:15:55.730 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
63 00:15:55.730 ⇒ 00:16:03.970 Uttam Kumaran: That. That we have new clients, basically that you can start to transition onto that’s like, that’s for me, the goal.
64 00:16:05.330 ⇒ 00:16:07.130 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, okay.
65 00:16:08.200 ⇒ 00:16:14.180 Aakash Tandel: That sounds good. So I think I’m good on Eden. Then kind of with what this looks like.
66 00:16:15.890 ⇒ 00:16:18.730 Aakash Tandel: Any other anything else. Robert runs here
67 00:16:22.520 ⇒ 00:16:32.030 Robert Tseng: So in in total works, basically saying, it’s somewhere between what? 10 h of analysis, 30 h of engineering or something like that
68 00:16:32.250 ⇒ 00:16:37.269 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, Annie’s is, what is this working 40 h?
69 00:16:37.570 ⇒ 00:16:43.029 Aakash Tandel: Why can’t I says it’s like hovering. Okay? So it’s 25 h of
70 00:16:43.720 ⇒ 00:16:46.339 Aakash Tandel: 10 HA week. Why is that of 10 HA week? She has
71 00:16:46.340 ⇒ 00:16:47.539 Robert Tseng: 25% of
72 00:16:47.540 ⇒ 00:16:48.110 Aakash Tandel: Oh, of 4!
73 00:16:48.110 ⇒ 00:16:49.170 Robert Tseng: Simple to, yeah, yeah.
74 00:16:49.750 ⇒ 00:16:57.410 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, so like 20. Yep, yeah, to 20, total for analysts for 24
75 00:16:57.780 ⇒ 00:17:00.769 Aakash Tandel: engineering. But likely that this analyst will come down
76 00:17:02.700 ⇒ 00:17:03.939 Robert Tseng: Yeah, that makes sense
77 00:17:06.640 ⇒ 00:17:08.480 Aakash Tandel: And then on Javi.
78 00:17:09.119 ⇒ 00:17:16.939 Aakash Tandel: I know. Next week, I guess no pious’s work is going to conclude this week. So that’s fine.
79 00:17:17.896 ⇒ 00:17:27.240 Aakash Tandel: We have Kyle’s work at 10 h. Next week we have Awaii at 10 h as well.
80 00:17:27.619 ⇒ 00:17:30.700 Aakash Tandel: And he’s at what is this? 40,
81 00:17:31.060 ⇒ 00:17:33.589 Aakash Tandel: 20? Okay, that’s fine. 10 h.
82 00:17:33.740 ⇒ 00:17:38.489 Aakash Tandel: Okay, this also seems right. It does seem wrong that you’re not in here, though.
83 00:17:47.020 ⇒ 00:17:49.059 Aakash Tandel: because you are working on this.
84 00:18:10.390 ⇒ 00:18:16.469 Aakash Tandel: it’s gonna blow it up for you. But this is like more realistic. It’s like, I think, better to be correct than
85 00:18:17.230 ⇒ 00:18:22.249 Aakash Tandel: making it look and operating, because at a minimum, I think you’re spending 10 HA week on Javi
86 00:18:22.650 ⇒ 00:18:23.400 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
87 00:18:24.160 ⇒ 00:18:28.580 Aakash Tandel: Okay, okay. So hopefully, as we
88 00:18:30.870 ⇒ 00:18:38.919 Aakash Tandel: ramp Annie up to take more of the tasks from the analysis side that frees you up. But yeah, that’s going to be an ongoing thing, I think.
89 00:18:40.320 ⇒ 00:18:45.590 Aakash Tandel: And then, yeah, this split right here between Oish and Kayo
90 00:18:45.710 ⇒ 00:18:56.149 Aakash Tandel: is the intent to have the intent initially, was to have Kyle fully take over oasis work. I’m still a little skeptical of that happening at the end of next week.
91 00:18:56.990 ⇒ 00:18:57.590 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
92 00:19:00.630 ⇒ 00:19:01.939 Aakash Tandel: I think we can.
93 00:19:02.080 ⇒ 00:19:09.919 Aakash Tandel: I think next week looks fine. I think after that there’s a question mark between like who who we staff? An ae, if it’s Kyle.
94 00:19:11.743 ⇒ 00:19:16.539 Aakash Tandel: That’s fine, if it’s a wish also fine. But
95 00:19:17.320 ⇒ 00:19:27.879 Aakash Tandel: oasis time seems to be pulled in multiple different directions. So want to account for that. And then if it’s Kyle, we want to make sure that he has enough support to get his work done in a timely manner. Yeah.
96 00:19:30.700 ⇒ 00:19:31.430 Aakash Tandel: okay.
97 00:19:34.150 ⇒ 00:19:36.840 Robert Tseng: Yeah, so this is at about 1010
98 00:19:37.040 ⇒ 00:19:41.939 Aakash Tandel: Back of the weeks. I wish we could. Oh, here, let me. I don’t know if this is a helpful view or not, but
99 00:19:46.570 ⇒ 00:19:57.839 Aakash Tandel: this is the week we’re looking at to. Yeah, 1010, 1010 and 10
100 00:19:58.710 ⇒ 00:20:02.870 Aakash Tandel: But we’re billing for 20. So let’s not really count
101 00:20:05.260 ⇒ 00:20:16.379 Aakash Tandel: mine. Yeah, even. Yeah. Aman is definitely getting his money’s worth like, I don’t know what he’s talking about in his messages, but he’s definitely getting more than 20 h worth of work out of us. So,
102 00:20:18.780 ⇒ 00:20:19.570 Aakash Tandel: okay.
103 00:20:21.320 ⇒ 00:20:21.980 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
104 00:20:22.810 ⇒ 00:20:28.779 Aakash Tandel: I think one thing I’d like to see is a little bit faster on the Ae. Side with Kyle’s work. I think that’s burning us a little bit
105 00:20:28.780 ⇒ 00:20:33.399 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I think that’s really the. It’s the perception that we’re not shipping things like
106 00:20:33.660 ⇒ 00:20:39.570 Robert Tseng: very fast on that on that team that, like, I think a man is just like, why do things take so long
107 00:20:40.530 ⇒ 00:20:54.359 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I mean. So I I sort of thought about this a little bit this week, and like, there’s a Pr that’s open, right? So I actually got, I mean, initially, on Monday it got a message saying, this stuff is slow. I was like, Okay, well, the due dates are Friday. So
108 00:20:54.730 ⇒ 00:21:07.470 Uttam Kumaran: we’re still on track, and then Pr got open yesterday for the work. I guess. My before I can go to Kyle and sort of be like, hey, take a look at these tickets. They’re not coming out of time.
109 00:21:07.890 ⇒ 00:21:13.340 Uttam Kumaran: My my pushback would be okay. The the due date should have been like Wednesday. Then for the whole thing.
110 00:21:15.520 ⇒ 00:21:23.250 Robert Tseng: Already got shifted back. I don’t know who just said it, but yeah, we definitely have not been giving him one week. Timelines everything I set for him is like 2 days
111 00:21:24.930 ⇒ 00:21:26.659 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, I guess that’s
112 00:21:27.260 ⇒ 00:21:39.784 Uttam Kumaran: I mean the conversation. I feel like he. It’s this one that he got done like it basically got done yesterday. It just hasn’t been reviewed, which that’s like an engineering problem. I can go review today and get it out.
113 00:21:40.480 ⇒ 00:21:43.499 Uttam Kumaran: But if we overall feel like it’s still slow. Then.
114 00:21:44.670 ⇒ 00:21:46.830 Uttam Kumaran: like we each have a different conversation
115 00:21:48.940 ⇒ 00:21:53.070 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I mean, the Ae side is the bottleneck right now, I mean Annie’s pumping stuff out fast, like.
116 00:21:54.440 ⇒ 00:22:01.310 Robert Tseng: yeah, I got it. But she, just. I don’t have that much to give to her, because we’re waiting on data like it feels like we’ve been
117 00:22:01.810 ⇒ 00:22:06.820 Robert Tseng: having. The same data is not available question like kind of conversation for a while
118 00:22:07.173 ⇒ 00:22:18.850 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. So so here’s a here’s so one option is the way she’s currently split between Sweden and this. But what I’m hearing is that he’s not able to take both of them.
119 00:22:19.370 ⇒ 00:22:20.020 Uttam Kumaran: Let’s see
120 00:22:20.020 ⇒ 00:22:26.889 Aakash Tandel: It doesn’t seem like it. This at least, I I haven’t seen stuff moving as fast this week, so I’m not sure if he’s like
121 00:22:26.890 ⇒ 00:22:30.850 Uttam Kumaran: I think he pushed some stuff today. I think he was just out Monday through today.
122 00:22:32.303 ⇒ 00:22:33.549 Uttam Kumaran: Right? Answer.
123 00:22:33.730 ⇒ 00:22:39.729 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. And then the Kyle piece I’m gonna go through and just look at what tickets are on this plate and basically
124 00:22:39.880 ⇒ 00:22:50.500 Uttam Kumaran: try to flag that, hey? Like, I want to basically see why, this couldn’t have gotten done in like half the time. But this is where I need. I just need a little bit more clarity on like.
125 00:22:50.790 ⇒ 00:22:58.009 Uttam Kumaran: okay. These 2 tickets were assigned to Kyle. They were due on Wednesday. Then we had to push them back. That gives me enough evidence to go. Have a conversation
126 00:22:59.185 ⇒ 00:23:02.290 Uttam Kumaran: statement, or at the time you get pushed back
127 00:23:02.400 ⇒ 00:23:11.889 Uttam Kumaran: on the due dates, then you should basically flag it as like, okay, this needs to go. So the the worst case here you can just tag tag me on when it’s what needs to move forward. I’ll I’ll take it on
128 00:23:13.530 ⇒ 00:23:15.239 Uttam Kumaran: if we need to do that short term
129 00:23:18.220 ⇒ 00:23:21.712 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, that sounds good.
130 00:23:22.840 ⇒ 00:23:23.580 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
131 00:23:24.900 ⇒ 00:23:44.030 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, I think there’s a lot of connectors, too, like there’s attentive north beam, Klavio, all these that are like in various states of like slight progress, but then they don’t get over the hump. So I think, from a Mons perspective, he’s not seeing it finished. But it’s like there’s like little blockers along the way, so we got to figure out a way to
132 00:23:44.250 ⇒ 00:23:52.670 Aakash Tandel: either break through those, or just be more like candid with him like, Hey, look, this is not something that’s like readily available, and you can’t. You can’t get this in a week. Type of thing
133 00:23:52.970 ⇒ 00:23:53.740 Robert Tseng: I think he’s
134 00:23:53.740 ⇒ 00:24:17.859 Robert Tseng: like, I’m thinking about it from a perspective he’s like, okay, look, you guys told us to switch to portable and then. Now we’re just like not able to get connectors, and we’re going back to 5 Tran. And then, like he told me North Beam was going to be ready like 3 weeks ago, and this is the most urgent report. But Northeas not like I don’t know. Like just I, I can understand that he’s just like, confused. Like, yeah.
135 00:24:18.150 ⇒ 00:24:29.489 Uttam Kumaran: I’m also confused, because then I wanna I but I want to see a ticket. I want to see tickets for North Beam ingestion, north beam modeling and north beam dashboard. And I want to know which part who owns which part
136 00:24:29.610 ⇒ 00:24:34.780 Uttam Kumaran: and which part is slow, because I looked into. There’s data for north Beam. It’s been there for weeks.
137 00:24:34.940 ⇒ 00:24:38.020 Uttam Kumaran: So who dropped the ball?
138 00:24:39.270 ⇒ 00:24:44.129 Uttam Kumaran: Right? That’s what I want to know is A is a ball being dropped in stand up. Or is it like?
139 00:24:44.410 ⇒ 00:24:55.959 Uttam Kumaran: So this I just want to know for each of those sources. It just needs to be clearly to get it out where we are. That’s for me. Yeah, like, maybe we can go through it now, which is just like in just North being dame to Snowflake.
140 00:24:56.180 ⇒ 00:25:02.479 Uttam Kumaran: That’s that’s done like I already this has been, this is ready. This is there. So
141 00:25:02.670 ⇒ 00:25:03.309 Robert Tseng: Yeah, but like a way.
142 00:25:03.310 ⇒ 00:25:03.650 Uttam Kumaran: It’s
143 00:25:03.650 ⇒ 00:25:07.819 Robert Tseng: I know that. And then he was just like, Oh, it’s not, it’s not there. So I sent you that message
144 00:25:07.820 ⇒ 00:25:23.190 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. But dude that. Then then that’s on him like that’s on him. Right? That’s that’s what I need to know is like who dropped the ball here, because that’s not. And so if he said it’s not there, then that was not true, because it’s been there. But that’s fine then, but that’s on us right?
145 00:25:23.570 ⇒ 00:25:26.270 Uttam Kumaran: Like, that’s on the team. That’s a mistake on our part.
146 00:25:26.879 ⇒ 00:25:37.960 Uttam Kumaran: But then I wanna make sure. Okay, cool. It’s there. So now like, how quickly can we turn it around like, how quickly can we make dashboard ready tables that can get turned around into a dashboard?
147 00:25:38.590 ⇒ 00:25:42.470 Uttam Kumaran: And that’s the question you should ask away so
148 00:25:43.220 ⇒ 00:25:46.589 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, because Annie’s blocked on this item, which we’re still waiting
149 00:25:46.590 ⇒ 00:25:48.110 Robert Tseng: Yeah, it’s been blocked for a week. Yeah.
150 00:25:51.250 ⇒ 00:25:57.379 Aakash Tandel: Okay. So this, this is still blocked on the wish. And this is still in progress, or it’s the available
151 00:25:58.400 ⇒ 00:26:00.679 Robert Tseng: Yeah, that’s this was this was just dying
152 00:26:02.540 ⇒ 00:26:05.300 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. And for for any of these items
153 00:26:05.500 ⇒ 00:26:12.530 Uttam Kumaran: stand up. The answer should not be. I’ll look into it. Just find the answer in the stand up or escalate it. Because
154 00:26:12.870 ⇒ 00:26:16.049 Uttam Kumaran: in in 9 seconds, I answered, I figured this out
155 00:26:16.320 ⇒ 00:26:24.589 Uttam Kumaran: right? So I I’m I’m happy to still play escalation. I just need to know what escalates to me, because I’ll help. I’ll help move these guys along
156 00:26:25.136 ⇒ 00:26:37.560 Uttam Kumaran: cause they’ll give you answers that’s like, Oh, I don’t know, or blah blah or jargon. Don’t don’t worry about any of that. Just set the due dates really firmly, and then escalate. If it’s not gonna hit, and I’ll have a conversation with them
157 00:26:37.560 ⇒ 00:26:51.729 Robert Tseng: Yeah, this ticket right here. Wish we was just like telling me needs another etl provider. And we just like went through this whole conversation about, okay, we need to host a cloud function and snowflake and Da, da.
158 00:26:52.070 ⇒ 00:26:56.949 Robert Tseng: yeah, I’m just like you. Just you just spun me in the loop for like 15 min
159 00:26:57.890 ⇒ 00:27:04.639 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, so I was like, dude, we Comp, we completely had it. And there’s actually there, we could probably get more stuff from that. So
160 00:27:04.890 ⇒ 00:27:05.380 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
161 00:27:05.380 ⇒ 00:27:06.887 Uttam Kumaran: That was done.
162 00:27:09.320 ⇒ 00:27:14.080 Uttam Kumaran: okay, so that’s the north theme side, I but I want to see sort of where we’re blocked on all
163 00:27:14.260 ⇒ 00:27:17.689 Uttam Kumaran: sources, because the attentive data is also flowing. And we have attentive data
164 00:27:19.220 ⇒ 00:27:26.359 Aakash Tandel: Yeah. So we have attentive data. I think he’s already sent that over to Aman. I saw the message, where’s the attentive
165 00:27:26.360 ⇒ 00:27:28.740 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I’m I hate. We already moved it to that
166 00:27:28.980 ⇒ 00:27:33.039 Aakash Tandel: Okay, move it to. Okay, yeah. So now, it just needs to be, you know.
167 00:27:33.620 ⇒ 00:27:40.510 Uttam Kumaran: Subscribe and save, subscribe and save. I’ll I can tell you. It’s it’s it’s gonna it’s gonna be tough, so that
168 00:27:40.980 ⇒ 00:27:42.260 Uttam Kumaran: I don’t know what to do.
169 00:27:42.701 ⇒ 00:27:47.490 Uttam Kumaran: I think you have a solution for Annie to kind of look at the purchase frequency. But
170 00:27:48.200 ⇒ 00:27:59.290 Uttam Kumaran: that’s that like I? I asked. I asked polytomic to just try to support it. They can do it. Then we can get these guys a price and tell them what it’s gonna take that I can’t do anything like
171 00:28:00.130 ⇒ 00:28:00.700 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
172 00:28:02.030 ⇒ 00:28:03.501 Uttam Kumaran: Which is fine, like
173 00:28:06.560 ⇒ 00:28:19.912 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, this is like, but like, I mean, if no one has the connector, then that’s not on us, it’s on, unfortunately, just what we’re dealing with. So I think I mean, I’m on at that point I’m assuming will be more
174 00:28:21.320 ⇒ 00:28:24.529 Aakash Tandel: applicable to that that answer. But yeah, that’s something that’s outside of our control
175 00:28:25.010 ⇒ 00:28:25.530 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
176 00:28:25.530 ⇒ 00:28:32.349 Robert Tseng: So like we don’t currently have an escalation tab, or if something isn’t there, we don’t custom build I don’t know. Like
177 00:28:33.450 ⇒ 00:28:36.610 Robert Tseng: if we can even circumvent this kind of like.
178 00:28:37.010 ⇒ 00:28:41.410 Robert Tseng: I’m not saying we should build web hooks and like kind of hacky jobs all the time, but like.
179 00:28:42.160 ⇒ 00:28:45.299 Robert Tseng: I don’t know if this is like really important to them. We should be like, well.
180 00:28:45.300 ⇒ 00:28:45.840 Uttam Kumaran: That’s okay.
181 00:28:45.840 ⇒ 00:28:51.420 Robert Tseng: Maybe we yeah provide the proxy solution. But like, maybe there’s something we can. I don’t know if there’s anything we can do
182 00:28:51.420 ⇒ 00:28:59.899 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I mean, but that’s again like, that’s that’s an option we can scope out. It’s gonna take us time to scope that out. So yeah.
183 00:29:01.210 ⇒ 00:29:01.910 Robert Tseng: Okay.
184 00:29:05.302 ⇒ 00:29:09.879 Aakash Tandel: Okay, I don’t wanna derail this with just Javi stuff. But yeah, we
185 00:29:12.350 ⇒ 00:29:38.590 Aakash Tandel: we can work on. Yeah. So I don’t want to over index on the wish being slow this week, because he was sick for the 1st part of the week. So let’s just assume that he has bandwidth to do, you know, 10 h of work next week, and and kind of go from there. And then yeah, on the Kyle piece we’ll just be. We’ll we’ll have like, I think the the main thing I gotta remember is like he’s got to have earlier due dates, so someone can check and make sure that that’s like
186 00:29:38.770 ⇒ 00:29:50.054 Aakash Tandel: like the correct way, or like the the basically the double check on that otherwise, there’s not going to be timeline in our sprints to to get it done at the end of the sprint. So that sounds good.
187 00:29:51.800 ⇒ 00:29:52.550 Aakash Tandel: okay.
188 00:29:52.770 ⇒ 00:29:54.030 Aakash Tandel: Anything else there?
189 00:29:55.520 ⇒ 00:29:56.820 Aakash Tandel: It’s primarily Robert
190 00:29:58.190 ⇒ 00:29:58.980 Robert Tseng: Nope.
191 00:29:58.980 ⇒ 00:29:59.560 Aakash Tandel: Okay?
192 00:30:01.250 ⇒ 00:30:03.220 Aakash Tandel: And it didn’t drop. Okay, cool.
193 00:30:03.330 ⇒ 00:30:10.600 Aakash Tandel: No worries. All right, Amber. Do you want to me to point anywhere
194 00:30:11.740 ⇒ 00:30:19.399 Amber Lin: Yeah. Why don’t we click on that? Can we also have the split view? So we can look at each individual person?
195 00:30:19.910 ⇒ 00:30:26.860 Amber Lin: Yeah, just right next to projects. Click the no, the one in the middle. Yeah. Great. So
196 00:30:27.090 ⇒ 00:30:30.160 Amber Lin: for ABC’s team, I think
197 00:30:30.370 ⇒ 00:30:38.839 Amber Lin: time allocation is pretty good. We essentially didn’t need to do any work for them up until like yesterday.
198 00:30:39.080 ⇒ 00:30:43.130 Amber Lin: apart from meetings, because it was just, we’re doing the rollouts
199 00:30:43.490 ⇒ 00:30:49.100 Amber Lin: doing quick edits updates to the document essentially got that done in the meeting. So
200 00:30:49.980 ⇒ 00:31:10.809 Amber Lin: in Wednesday, I was like, Okay, we have enough that we need to do now. And Casey worked on it a little bit. I don’t know how long it takes him, but we are on a really good track for ABC, and we didn’t have to do that much work. So we’re pretty good on time allocation for this week.
201 00:31:11.583 ⇒ 00:31:17.189 Amber Lin: And then moving forward, we’ll have to. We’re developing the other bot and rolling out
202 00:31:17.570 ⇒ 00:31:24.590 Amber Lin: to all their Csrs. So I expect our time commitment to go up a little bit next week.
203 00:31:24.690 ⇒ 00:31:33.100 Amber Lin: Hopefully, I’ll I’ll scope it out with Miguel, and hopefully we can maintain it within the the planning like we have now.
204 00:31:34.160 ⇒ 00:31:39.330 Amber Lin: Annie is ramping up pretty nicely. I gave her a task
205 00:31:39.570 ⇒ 00:31:44.040 Amber Lin: because she doesn’t really know real. So I gave her a task to build a canvas.
206 00:31:44.330 ⇒ 00:31:58.249 Amber Lin: and real, so as per advice from Utam. So now she can learn while she’s doing a task so hopefully, I can have that from her and also show the clients in our demo this week. So we’re pretty good on ABC, I’m pretty happy about it.
207 00:32:00.510 ⇒ 00:32:03.969 Amber Lin: Yeah, she has around 10 h for ABC. I think that’s a good amount
208 00:32:04.310 ⇒ 00:32:04.980 Aakash Tandel: Cool.
209 00:32:05.220 ⇒ 00:32:06.833 Amber Lin: Yeah, and
210 00:32:08.080 ⇒ 00:32:09.270 Aakash Tandel: Yeah. Keep. Going. Sorry.
211 00:32:10.179 ⇒ 00:32:11.979 Amber Lin: So my other
212 00:32:12.750 ⇒ 00:32:30.049 Amber Lin: 3 teams. So 2 client teams and pool parts and staff lists, staff list is going really, really slow. I would like us to do more work, but it’s really dependent on the client of assigning us work. But, as Wetam said, I think work will come, so we’re just waiting for them to
213 00:32:30.450 ⇒ 00:32:32.369 Amber Lin: move things forward.
214 00:32:32.680 ⇒ 00:32:35.500 Amber Lin: Not that much commitment there, but
215 00:32:36.350 ⇒ 00:32:39.739 Amber Lin: we’ll see. So stop was kind of slow
216 00:32:40.314 ⇒ 00:32:49.660 Amber Lin: especially since we’re hourly our our revenue is kind of slow for that team, too. So next, for cool parts.
217 00:32:49.790 ⇒ 00:33:08.769 Amber Lin: before we’re just, we’re in limbo waiting because we pause. Everything waiting for Dan, and this week we got emergency pings of from a very pissed ben Ben. So we had to do some emergency patching of the dashboards there, and we’re meeting with Kim so hopefully.
218 00:33:08.890 ⇒ 00:33:17.020 Amber Lin: That will be going on pretty well. I have a question here which I’m or Robert is pool parts hourly? Or is it fixed rate
219 00:33:18.680 ⇒ 00:33:19.500 Robert Tseng: Hourly.
220 00:33:19.500 ⇒ 00:33:22.699 Amber Lin: Oh, great! So we’ll have more work. We can build more
221 00:33:23.340 ⇒ 00:33:33.409 Amber Lin: great. So that’s pretty good. So, moving forward, I can reallocate these people’s times onto operating as well.
222 00:33:34.222 ⇒ 00:33:40.049 Amber Lin: Mostly Luke. And then both gonna play support for Luke.
223 00:33:40.200 ⇒ 00:33:44.140 Amber Lin: So I would say, Luke’s time is probably gonna be
224 00:33:46.870 ⇒ 00:33:54.149 Amber Lin: like 60 or 70% on full parts, and the rest on staff, with whatever request they have
225 00:33:56.010 ⇒ 00:33:56.610 Aakash Tandel: Okay.
226 00:33:56.610 ⇒ 00:33:59.739 Amber Lin: Yeah. And lastly, for the AI team.
227 00:34:00.557 ⇒ 00:34:14.809 Amber Lin: We’re we had a discovery call, and we’re working on that as well. Setting all the foundations. I do feel like the progress me and we don’t just talking about this. The progress is a little bit slow. I feel like
228 00:34:15.239 ⇒ 00:34:34.740 Amber Lin: me and Miguel kind of separated the tasks a little bit too much. I know I’m pushing on my side of setting the road maps into this discovery and finding out what we need to do. I think he’s very. He’s very focused on the technical aspects. But can we? Oh, these are the
229 00:34:35.679 ⇒ 00:34:39.750 Amber Lin: things we gotta get done with these type of tools.
230 00:34:40.120 ⇒ 00:34:45.279 Amber Lin: So I feel like that site is not progressing very well.
231 00:34:47.080 ⇒ 00:34:47.630 Robert Tseng: So.
232 00:34:48.960 ⇒ 00:34:50.089 Amber Lin: I will be.
233 00:34:52.962 ⇒ 00:34:55.067 Robert Tseng: Show me!
234 00:34:57.749 ⇒ 00:34:58.649 Aakash Tandel: Sorry. What’s that?
235 00:35:00.640 ⇒ 00:35:03.130 Amber Lin: Robert, is it seeing on your end
236 00:35:05.270 ⇒ 00:35:09.159 Robert Tseng: Oh, my, yeah, okay, that’s I think that’s that’s probably my wife singing
237 00:35:09.330 ⇒ 00:35:10.020 Amber Lin: I see.
238 00:35:10.020 ⇒ 00:35:12.265 Aakash Tandel: Nice. He’s got a beautiful voice
239 00:35:13.910 ⇒ 00:35:15.169 Robert Tseng: I can’t even hear it.
240 00:35:15.872 ⇒ 00:35:16.810 Amber Lin: It’s all good.
241 00:35:18.400 ⇒ 00:35:23.470 Amber Lin: So that’s the AI team. Good. I’m just gonna ping
242 00:35:23.710 ⇒ 00:35:30.290 Amber Lin: Miguel to check on the progress because we’ve been pretty stuck on the development side.
243 00:35:31.510 ⇒ 00:35:32.930 Amber Lin: Yeah. Okay.
244 00:35:34.052 ⇒ 00:35:48.480 Aakash Tandel: That sounds good on stack buts and pool parts, is there? If Luke has extra bandwidth, is there, do you think we can add, give him tasks that are from Javi or Eden, or
245 00:35:48.853 ⇒ 00:35:50.720 Amber Lin: Luke only has 20 h
246 00:35:50.720 ⇒ 00:35:56.619 Aakash Tandel: Oh, you only 20 h. Okay, never mind. All right. Well, that’ll be yeah. Okay. That makes sense.
247 00:35:56.780 ⇒ 00:35:57.320 Amber Lin: Hmm.
248 00:35:58.030 ⇒ 00:36:00.510 Aakash Tandel: Okay and no one’s on.
249 00:36:00.650 ⇒ 00:36:02.939 Aakash Tandel: We don’t have any. Pm’s. On urban stems, but
250 00:36:03.280 ⇒ 00:36:09.860 Aakash Tandel: it seems like Utham and Demi are chugging along, and I haven’t actually kept up with that project.
251 00:36:10.810 ⇒ 00:36:15.620 Aakash Tandel: Demo Lada is at 25%. Is he fully booked across the board?
252 00:36:15.990 ⇒ 00:36:19.420 Aakash Tandel: Let me see, he’s at 5.th
253 00:36:19.590 ⇒ 00:36:21.520 Aakash Tandel: He’s only at 50 h.
254 00:36:21.960 ⇒ 00:36:26.269 Aakash Tandel: and he’s full time, so I feel like we could bump his hours on Eden a little bit up
255 00:36:29.270 ⇒ 00:36:30.759 Robert Tseng: Yeah, we we should
256 00:36:33.960 ⇒ 00:36:35.350 Aakash Tandel: Let me see what that looks like.
257 00:36:35.720 ⇒ 00:36:36.790 Aakash Tandel: Eden.
258 00:36:42.610 ⇒ 00:36:46.419 Aakash Tandel: Okay, let me, I guess, split it here. Split.
259 00:36:47.140 ⇒ 00:36:50.060 Aakash Tandel: Okay? And then we’re gonna give edit.
260 00:36:53.340 ⇒ 00:36:56.690 Aakash Tandel: Let’s go up to 50%,
261 00:36:57.490 ⇒ 00:37:00.449 Aakash Tandel: save. So that’s 10 HA week
262 00:37:01.640 ⇒ 00:37:06.889 Aakash Tandel: and urban stems. Yeah, this seems more. I mean, it seems more realistic to probably to what’s happening.
263 00:37:11.110 ⇒ 00:37:21.880 Aakash Tandel: And then, yeah, if this ends up, we’ll we can try this for this week. And then if you know, away she’s light on work, because demi la day is at
264 00:37:22.120 ⇒ 00:37:30.238 Aakash Tandel: 50% of 10 h, you know, 20 HA week. Then oh, can bump up hours on
265 00:37:31.310 ⇒ 00:37:32.440 Aakash Tandel: Javi.
266 00:37:32.640 ⇒ 00:37:34.220 Aakash Tandel: I think that’s a pretty good.
267 00:37:35.570 ⇒ 00:37:40.850 Aakash Tandel: Yeah. If he, if if it’s more of his time, goes to job. Yeah, I think that’s okay. Might be good.
268 00:37:43.650 ⇒ 00:37:51.050 Aakash Tandel: Okay, anyone have any questions? Are we good with the what we talked about
269 00:37:56.070 ⇒ 00:37:59.150 Uttam Kumaran: I just had a point about urban stems. Oh, cool!
270 00:37:59.370 ⇒ 00:38:01.070 Uttam Kumaran: Whatever we want to get to that
271 00:38:01.320 ⇒ 00:38:05.565 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, no. We. We went on it quickly. But yeah.
272 00:38:06.460 ⇒ 00:38:26.300 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I just wanna loop in one of y’all there soon. We’re, I think, around what? 5 weeks away now from like mother’s day. Basically. So at that point, this will turn into like a more fully fledged project. Right now, we’re sort of billing hourly 15 HA week.
273 00:38:26.410 ⇒ 00:38:29.649 Uttam Kumaran: We’re definitely like hitting that or above
274 00:38:30.121 ⇒ 00:38:50.689 Uttam Kumaran: so it’s like 2 2 like red flags for me right now. One, I’m I’m doing engineering work. So that’s 1 thing. Second piece is, there’s no Pm, and 3rd 3rd pieces. We’re we’re basically we’re contracted for just 15 HA week, and we’re doing easily that I mean every day. I think we’re spending. Both of us are roughly spending around
275 00:38:50.990 ⇒ 00:39:05.540 Uttam Kumaran: like an hour or 2 at at least. I’m spending around an hour or 2. I think them a lot is spending around 3 or 4. So I think we have enough case to probably build for for more hours. But I just wanna also start to loop in
276 00:39:05.992 ⇒ 00:39:11.610 Uttam Kumaran: one of y’all to come help out on. Basically, it’s project planning. There
277 00:39:11.660 ⇒ 00:39:15.569 Uttam Kumaran: we were. It’s we’re sort of light on like actual Pm. Work.
278 00:39:15.987 ⇒ 00:39:25.382 Uttam Kumaran: But it would be nice to have someone else on our team there. Like from between you all to start to plan for the future. Scope
279 00:39:26.310 ⇒ 00:39:31.939 Uttam Kumaran: and and again, sort of help with like allocation. And and just make sure that that’s part of our whole process here
280 00:39:32.660 ⇒ 00:39:38.910 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, that sounds good. Annie, do you want to take this on, or do you feel a capacity?
281 00:39:39.820 ⇒ 00:39:41.770 Aakash Tandel: Sorry? Not Annie Amber.
282 00:39:44.920 ⇒ 00:39:47.720 Amber Lin: Let’s see right now.
283 00:39:48.900 ⇒ 00:39:54.359 Amber Lin: Pool parts coming back. Stack was kind of falling to the back, but pool parts coming back
284 00:39:55.665 ⇒ 00:39:56.040 Uttam Kumaran: You.
285 00:39:56.351 ⇒ 00:40:07.249 Amber Lin: Ai teams taking a bit. But if this urban stems doesn’t take too much pm, and I’m sure there’s not a lot of people involved. There’s not too much. I think it’ll be lighter work
286 00:40:08.600 ⇒ 00:40:13.160 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I would say, it’s definitely more important than the AI teamwork
287 00:40:13.160 ⇒ 00:40:13.560 Amber Lin: Yeah.
288 00:40:13.560 ⇒ 00:40:25.913 Uttam Kumaran: So ultimately like. If I if I need to, just sort of help out there, I can. But I think, Amber, if you’re if you can be involved here. That would be great. It’s sort of small, for now
289 00:40:26.230 ⇒ 00:40:30.589 Amber Lin: Say, like twe 12.5% like 5 HA week.
290 00:40:30.590 ⇒ 00:40:43.969 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. And and I, actually, I actually don’t think it’s gonna be that like this, this client, we actually have a lot of support internally, and all. And our work is like purely technical.
291 00:40:44.362 ⇒ 00:40:52.249 Uttam Kumaran: Like, we’re not really interfacing a lot with stakeholders. We’re sort of going through that team to do that. So I actually think it will be a lot lighter
292 00:40:52.520 ⇒ 00:40:53.170 Amber Lin: Yeah.
293 00:40:54.190 ⇒ 00:40:59.879 Uttam Kumaran: But I wanna just make sure we’re sort of geared up for this next phase, and that you’re sort of involved.
294 00:41:00.830 ⇒ 00:41:01.160 Amber Lin: Okay.
295 00:41:01.160 ⇒ 00:41:04.229 Uttam Kumaran: We have again. We have about 5 or 6 weeks until we’ll probably ramp up
296 00:41:04.884 ⇒ 00:41:09.229 Uttam Kumaran: and we’re looking to price that on a monthly basis. So
297 00:41:09.230 ⇒ 00:41:10.740 Amber Lin: Oh, great!
298 00:41:11.270 ⇒ 00:41:11.870 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
299 00:41:14.410 ⇒ 00:41:14.850 Amber Lin: Yeah.
300 00:41:15.930 ⇒ 00:41:23.189 Amber Lin: I think you can edit my time for urban stems. That’s 12.5. That will be a little better
301 00:41:23.190 ⇒ 00:41:23.760 Uttam Kumaran: Got it
302 00:41:24.550 ⇒ 00:41:27.560 Aakash Tandel: And I think, Yeah, go ahead.
303 00:41:28.670 ⇒ 00:41:30.139 Amber Lin: For urban stands
304 00:41:32.345 ⇒ 00:41:34.410 Uttam Kumaran: Link.
305 00:41:37.240 ⇒ 00:41:58.390 Uttam Kumaran: and I think my only thing there is I want to consider moving another ae onto there. I think sort of what I’m hearing is that away should probably just stick to those 2 clients, I think, is also on Eden, and then it’s on urban stems I would most likely suggest we bring Luke on
306 00:41:58.928 ⇒ 00:42:02.270 Uttam Kumaran: and he can start sort of filling out a couple of things.
307 00:42:04.050 ⇒ 00:42:05.460 Uttam Kumaran: Information
308 00:42:05.860 ⇒ 00:42:06.400 Aakash Tandel: Okay.
309 00:42:06.530 ⇒ 00:42:10.500 Aakash Tandel: Luke is at his capacity. Do we want to?
310 00:42:11.920 ⇒ 00:42:16.060 Uttam Kumaran: What is what is but he’s just on pool parts. Stat. Flitz.
311 00:42:16.390 ⇒ 00:42:17.970 Uttam Kumaran: That’s 20 h each
312 00:42:18.790 ⇒ 00:42:24.570 Amber Lin: No, he has 20 h total. I don’t think he has 40 h. Does he have 40 h
313 00:42:27.780 ⇒ 00:42:32.312 Uttam Kumaran: Sorry, guys, I’m literally in the airport, and there’s someone playing guitar
314 00:42:33.330 ⇒ 00:42:33.830 Uttam Kumaran: So
315 00:42:34.330 ⇒ 00:42:35.520 Amber Lin: 40 h, or 20
316 00:42:35.520 ⇒ 00:42:38.249 Uttam Kumaran: Yes, yeah. He’s at 40.
317 00:42:38.600 ⇒ 00:42:46.270 Amber Lin: Oh, capacity. That’s okay. He’s at half of that right now. He has a lot more capacity
318 00:42:46.520 ⇒ 00:42:54.800 Uttam Kumaran: Yes, so I would like him. I would like him to to start to move on to urban stems.
319 00:42:55.220 ⇒ 00:42:57.869 Uttam Kumaran: And then we basically, I think, have like a good
320 00:42:58.640 ⇒ 00:43:03.630 Uttam Kumaran: again. We’re just here. Start starting, starting to gear up for the next phase. Here
321 00:43:04.420 ⇒ 00:43:07.840 Aakash Tandel: You want Luke to start next week on Urban Sims
322 00:43:08.350 ⇒ 00:43:15.330 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, but you can just say, like 5 h of his time.
323 00:43:15.670 ⇒ 00:43:20.390 Uttam Kumaran: we again we don’t. We’re not contracted for more than 15. So this is where, like
324 00:43:20.720 ⇒ 00:43:23.340 Uttam Kumaran: part of it is like, we may eat some time here.
325 00:43:23.480 ⇒ 00:43:27.969 Uttam Kumaran: But also I’m gonna I wanna push Zack on their team to
326 00:43:28.480 ⇒ 00:43:33.170 Uttam Kumaran: consider us for more time. So at the end of this week I’m gonna do a time check.
327 00:43:33.510 ⇒ 00:43:36.850 Uttam Kumaran: because we’ll have this weekend last week, and then I’ll basically say, Hey.
328 00:43:37.280 ⇒ 00:43:44.659 Uttam Kumaran: you know, things have been go, and things have been going really well, like none of their team would describe it as bad. So I’m basically gonna say, Hey, we’ve been.
329 00:43:44.810 ⇒ 00:43:49.679 Uttam Kumaran: we’re basically been over. Go, we’ve been going over, most likely. Can we bump this up to 20
330 00:43:49.980 ⇒ 00:43:53.089 Uttam Kumaran: if we bump it up to 20. Then I’m I’m happy.
331 00:43:53.520 ⇒ 00:43:55.899 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
332 00:43:56.580 ⇒ 00:43:57.639 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, that sounds good.
333 00:44:00.120 ⇒ 00:44:01.909 Aakash Tandel: Marianne, I might need you to.
334 00:44:02.030 ⇒ 00:44:09.169 Aakash Tandel: I don’t know how to increase his like Luke’s time on like the the
335 00:44:09.840 ⇒ 00:44:10.270 Aakash Tandel: Where she work.
336 00:44:10.270 ⇒ 00:44:16.340 Amber Lin: I I think I can do it. I’ll open his profile, and I think we can edit the working hours there.
337 00:44:16.670 ⇒ 00:44:19.209 Amber Lin: We probably need to. Huh!
338 00:44:19.210 ⇒ 00:44:20.030 Aakash Tandel: Okay.
339 00:44:20.030 ⇒ 00:44:23.119 Amber Lin: Okay. I don’t know that, as someone else will have to help with that
340 00:44:23.400 ⇒ 00:44:28.189 Mariane Cequina: Yeah, I actually don’t know as well. Maybe maybe I’ll I’ll just be in the
341 00:44:28.190 ⇒ 00:44:30.740 Uttam Kumaran: Go to the go to the go to the Directory.
342 00:44:31.000 ⇒ 00:44:32.130 Mariane Cequina: Yeah, it was actually
343 00:44:32.130 ⇒ 00:44:37.440 Uttam Kumaran: Directory. Now go go in the directory, hit his name, and then you’ll see.
344 00:44:37.590 ⇒ 00:44:39.790 Uttam Kumaran: You’ll see an option to change
345 00:44:40.290 ⇒ 00:44:43.190 Aakash Tandel: I maybe don’t have the right permissions. That might be it
346 00:44:43.720 ⇒ 00:44:45.900 Uttam Kumaran: Well go on to go into employment.
347 00:44:46.940 ⇒ 00:44:47.570 Uttam Kumaran: The bottom
348 00:44:49.510 ⇒ 00:44:51.960 Uttam Kumaran: And then click on, add individual working hours.
349 00:44:52.600 ⇒ 00:44:58.298 Amber Lin: And then well, actually, you can just change the one that’s existing there. And then you can just change. Yeah.
350 00:44:59.550 ⇒ 00:45:00.140 Aakash Tandel: Perfect.
351 00:45:00.290 ⇒ 00:45:04.830 Amber Lin: Okay, let me go edit his time on the other parts
352 00:45:05.510 ⇒ 00:45:23.980 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. So basically the logic there is that you can. You can have working hours for people that are time box. So like, for example, if we were to. If we were to have it for 20 h, and then we bring them on full time, we would then expand to 40 and have the start date. Right now. Right now. Everybody sort of available for forties
353 00:45:25.520 ⇒ 00:45:26.190 Aakash Tandel: Cool.
354 00:45:27.640 ⇒ 00:45:33.500 Aakash Tandel: Okay, I think this looks good. Now, I think this is, yeah. Wait. Yeah, okay.
355 00:45:35.340 ⇒ 00:45:39.510 Aakash Tandel: It still says he’s I can figure that out later. It’s not. I don’t need to do that right now.
356 00:45:40.550 ⇒ 00:45:42.649 Aakash Tandel: It still says we’re over. Why are we
357 00:45:42.650 ⇒ 00:45:44.200 Uttam Kumaran: Should refresh.
358 00:45:44.450 ⇒ 00:45:51.389 Amber Lin: Because I’m editing the part for pool parts of stack list. It was based on percentages. So right now, I’m editing it, too.
359 00:45:51.816 ⇒ 00:45:55.540 Amber Lin: Adjusting your percentages should be, you should be good. Now, if you refresh
360 00:45:56.480 ⇒ 00:45:57.939 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, it’s probably fine. Okay.
361 00:46:01.210 ⇒ 00:46:04.979 Aakash Tandel: cool. We’re good. Now. Yep, okay, that looks good.
362 00:46:06.380 ⇒ 00:46:07.240 Aakash Tandel: All right.
363 00:46:07.930 ⇒ 00:46:10.469 Aakash Tandel: Does anyone have anything else they want to talk about.
364 00:46:10.610 ⇒ 00:46:19.278 Aakash Tandel: I think the allocations look good amber, and I can send out messages to the teams for projected hours for next week.
365 00:46:19.920 ⇒ 00:46:20.650 Aakash Tandel: yeah.
366 00:46:20.810 ⇒ 00:46:24.279 Amber Lin: Yeah, I wanted to check. How’s the time tracking going? Because
367 00:46:24.550 ⇒ 00:46:32.200 Amber Lin: today I realized, well, yes, today morning, I realized Casey didn’t have the ABC project in his clockify.
368 00:46:32.580 ⇒ 00:46:37.400 Amber Lin: And so I just want to make sure that everybody on every team
369 00:46:37.580 ⇒ 00:46:41.310 Amber Lin: knows that or is tracking it correctly.
370 00:46:42.140 ⇒ 00:46:50.745 Aakash Tandel: Yeah, I think. I mean, the expectation is they have it in by tomorrow. Right? So let’s wait till then to pull that data.
371 00:46:51.240 ⇒ 00:46:52.040 Amber Lin: Sounds good
372 00:46:52.040 ⇒ 00:46:58.450 Aakash Tandel: And then we can do some reconciliation. But again, that will have to happen on Monday, if people work like over the weekend. So
373 00:46:58.450 ⇒ 00:46:58.990 Amber Lin: Hmm.
374 00:46:59.690 ⇒ 00:47:03.499 Aakash Tandel: We’re a little bit working in arrears from that direction.
375 00:47:04.410 ⇒ 00:47:13.770 Aakash Tandel: and then we can do the projected versus actual we like you talked about. We don’t have full data yet for a full week. So once that happens, we’ll be good
376 00:47:15.010 ⇒ 00:47:16.679 Amber Lin: Sounds good, so we’ll do it on Monday.
377 00:47:16.970 ⇒ 00:47:17.520 Aakash Tandel: Yep.
378 00:47:17.840 ⇒ 00:47:19.429 Amber Lin: Alrighty, that’s all for me.
379 00:47:21.700 ⇒ 00:47:30.760 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, cool. Yeah, I’m gonna I’m just gonna follow up on a couple of items on on joby then and just try to get that pushed along from the engineering side
380 00:47:30.760 ⇒ 00:47:37.679 Aakash Tandel: If you have time to look at the light dash thing, the the rep at light dash has not gotten back to me. I’m not sure when
381 00:47:37.680 ⇒ 00:47:40.519 Aakash Tandel: I think they’re on Australian time. So
382 00:47:41.540 ⇒ 00:47:50.029 Uttam Kumaran: Probably will get back to you tomorrow or like later tonight. But yeah, I’ll I’m I’m just got here, so I’ll I’ll set it up and try to ping you
383 00:47:50.210 ⇒ 00:47:53.767 Aakash Tandel: Okay, thanks. I appreciate the help I thought I could do on my own. I couldn’t
384 00:47:53.990 ⇒ 00:47:55.859 Uttam Kumaran: No, no, that’s fine, that’s fine!
385 00:47:56.770 ⇒ 00:47:57.220 Aakash Tandel: Alrighty!
386 00:47:57.220 ⇒ 00:47:58.799 Uttam Kumaran: Let’s get it out. Okay, cool.
387 00:47:59.210 ⇒ 00:48:02.010 Aakash Tandel: Thanks. Y’a talk to you later. Bye, bye.
