00:00:01 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] So I was I have a meeting with Birgit on Monday, and I was gonna, like, bring up you know, like, I I like the automation topic and so talking about how, like, we successfully automated, you know, the sales tax process. Is it okay if I talk about RPA? I mean, is that something we get in trouble about, or they know we're doing it? 00:00:23 - [SCOTT_WARNER] No. They know about it now. So 00:00:25 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] Okay. We're good. Okay. So I can mention that. And then I also wanted to let her know well, you know, that we're maybe is the word partnering correct? Like, North America IT is partnering closely with HQ to ensure we have access and tools needed to move our automation initiatives forward. Is that fair? 00:00:46 - [SCOTT_WARNER] Yeah. I think that's fair. And and if she asked for clarification, I mean, just let her know that we have, you know, regular meetings with Bernd to kinda walk through it and and things like that. So 00:00:57 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] Okay. And Bernd, I think, reports up to. Right? I think so. Yeah. Okay. Cool. And do we have, like I mean, what else? Like, do we have a good list of, like, the things that we're working on? Does do you have that list? 00:01:15 - [SCOTT_WARNER] Let me 00:01:15 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] choose what we talk. Just so, like, if I you know, we can give her some examples of things. I know a couple of the finance things that we're doing. But 00:01:26 - [SCOTT_WARNER] Yeah. I think it's in the IT folder, so I'm looking for it. What does he have projects here? He shows it to me all the time. 00:01:44 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] Just gotta find it. K. 00:02:02 - [SCOTT_WARNER] It's always funny to go through someone else's file because it never lines up with how I think. 00:02:22 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] I might say as there are some roadblocks. 00:02:26 - [SCOTT_WARNER] Yeah. I mean, that's 00:02:27 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] not inaccurate at all. Roadblocks that are slowing down down our progress. And what if we had to say like, summarize to her what the biggest roadblock is. 00:02:44 - [SCOTT_WARNER] IT security. And and the well, I'd be careful there. Excessive IT security from the viewpoint of North America. 00:02:56 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] Okay. Some current roadblocks. Okay. 00:03:05 - [SCOTT_WARNER] I'm looking for this. I know it's in here. I just can't find it. 00:03:09 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] Need it the second. I mean, if you could just send it to me before by 1000 on Monday, that would be 00:03:18 - [SCOTT_WARNER] Yeah. I can do that. 00:03:19 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] So Okay. 00:03:21 - [SCOTT_WARNER] No problem. I'll I'll probably ask Copilot to go find it because I know it's in here. I'm just searching for a damn channel. So 00:03:27 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] Perfect. Okay. Do you need anything else? 00:03:30 - [SCOTT_WARNER] Nope. I think I'm pretty much done. I just got up on with Vera, so we're done for the day. She just asked me she asked if I'd heard from you lately, and I just said a while back. So that's why I sent you that message, so we're good. 00:03:42 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] Yeah. No. She got pinged me. She she wasn't she wasn't, I think, worried about hearing me. She already pinged me. I just didn't respond because I was in a meeting and, honestly, I didn't know the answer. Because I was like, I mean, Matt, like, he had intentionally asked for Vera and I to be included, but he didn't ask for Clint to be there. And I was like, well, I mean, I don't know. So it's like the dynamic is a little weird. So I actually just called Clint, and I like, does it make sense for you to be here? Like so 00:04:08 - [SCOTT_WARNER] So yeah. The only thing I'll say, you know, with her, she's she she was mad at me. Not mad. She was she said I was being too nice because I pinged Robert again about his KPIs and OKRs, and he finally is working on them. And she said I should've let it go so that he would've gotten in trouble. But I was like, no. I'm not gonna do that. So she's a 00:04:33 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] little you get in trouble, guys. I'm gonna tell Matt. I don't know if he's gonna 00:04:37 - [SCOTT_WARNER] It was just funny because she you can tell she's very frustrated. So she's like, you know, if I don't do something, he sends an email to nine people. But if he doesn't do something, it's like 00:04:47 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] Right. That's the thing. And I'm like, I wanna, like, time to, like, leave Lisa alone for a minute. Like, Lisa is, like, working her ass off. And, like, the the number of things that she's working on for them specifically and, I mean, a lot I mean, she's doing all and she's been doing all of these interviews and all that. I mean, she's literally done, I think, like, five or six interviews today, like, of TSM candidates and everything else. And, like and then, you know, like, he gets in there. Like, they had their one on one and shit. Like, he brings up this p this stupid software thing that, you know, Matt's dad has, the one that I'm, like, annoyed about that where they wanna you know, which I've already, like, have you had a chance to, like, look at the and I already told her, like, this is not, like, a top priority right now. But, like, I mean, I know that he likes Lisa and everything, but I'm just, like, also, like, like, I think, like, don't make her like, she's she handles it well, but I'm just, like, give her a break. Like, maybe just thank her for everything that she's doing because you guys are monopolizing her time from the rest of us. Like Exactly. Yeah. And I'm just like I mean, if I were him, I would have been like, hey. I just wanna make sure this is still on the radar. I don't expect you to have had anything done with it yet or something. But 00:06:00 - [SCOTT_WARNER] Yeah. I think that's Yeah. Difficult. But yeah. 00:06:03 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] Okay. So But but my point is, yes, like, if if somebody else is gonna do something, Robert will just, like, attack. But, yeah, he can just not do something at all and nobody. It doesn't matter. So 00:06:16 - [SCOTT_WARNER] He he apologized and said, I just don't have time enough time in the day to put out all the fires. And I said, dude, I we're all in the same boat. You don't have to tell me anything new. I just we need it done. So 00:06:26 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] Yeah. Speaking of, I got my remarkable. I don't know if it's speaking of. Yeah. So 00:06:36 - [SCOTT_WARNER] First first thoughts? Good, bad, don't know yet? 00:06:39 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] I like it so far. I just, I I just, like I'm really bad at organizations. Like, I don't know, like, how to organize things. So, like, right now, I just have a different folder for everybody, and so I'm gonna, like, put notes in it. But I'm like, do I have, like, notes, like, for each meeting, or do I have, like, running notes? Like, I haven't figured all that out yet. But so far, it's great. Because I love, like, writing. Like, I just like like, I don't wanna type. Like, I like to write and, like I don't know. So it's just super helpful that, like, usually, I just have pieces of paper everywhere with notes on it that I'm gonna, like, throw away because I don't I mean, they're literally, like like, the back of something. You know? So 00:07:14 - [SCOTT_WARNER] Yeah. I used to buy five cards in my backpack, and I would that's what I kept all my ideas on. And but then it's like, I would never go through them, so then, yeah, they sat. So no. That's cool. You have to let me know what you think. I I never know. Do I organize by person, by project, by topic? Like, that's where I get struck. I really struggle. So 00:07:31 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] You think I'll do, I don't know, probably a little bit of both, like, on one notes and then some, like, project specific and all that. So That's why 00:07:40 - [SCOTT_WARNER] when you and I talk and I say, let me find it. It's because I'm like, okay. Did I put that in Amity's folder, or did I put that in, like, AdaptX or Shapr? I don't know. It's hard. But yeah. Yeah. Okay. Well, I'll mark these ideas for you, and I'll I'll send you a list. And then if anything else comes up, just let me know. 00:07:57 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] Okay. Have a good weekend. 00:07:58 - [SCOTT_WARNER] You too. Take care. 00:07:59 - [AMITY_SENDAMA] Bye. Bye.
