In a 200 person company, I made friends with some peeps in the marketing department.
Yep, their workflows have tons of automation potential. They are definitely doing hours of work that can be done in minutes. Companies really should have rotations where a dev just sits and watches sales and marketing do any data input work.
I’ve started to see some of the hive mind downvote bridgade come here too. Heck someone downvoted your relatively neutral comment already, instead of taking the time to reply as to why they disagree.

A lot of reddit thinks in black and white scenarios where everything popularly decided can’t have a extenuating circumstance. I am pretty sure most of reddit would argue with their own reflection. Maybe it’s bots, maybe kids. It is definitely annoying and immature. It is hard to conversate in a thread when everyone is acting like a 5 year old not getting their lollipop.
