Possibility to add Thank you for involving me in this process. I started to
work for the company 2 weeks ago and I am happy to be
able to work with my new laptop now. However, why did
according to roles
comment to it take so long to order my hardware?
I would like to suggest that you create the possibility for
new employees to order the required hardware at least 2
trigger a change weeks before their first day of work. This way, you can be
sure that they can really start right away and will not have
to wait and thus waste time and money.
