Keep the day job for now and start volunteering what time you can spare to a cause that resonates with you.
That might be the night time soup kitchen, or planting trees with your local working bee, or companionship sessions with the local nursing home. You may find an idea for a vocation reveals itself, and be in a position to hear about any opportunities.
Lefty friendly and community work are pretty well aligned so I think that’s a start.
I feel you re IT and related industries. I just want to close my laptop and never open it again, but it’s not an option right now.
Uh yeah… Some did say things to that effect.
And there are other behaviours that can demonstrate that mindset.
But thank you for mansplaining my lived experience, champ. Couldn’t have navigated that one with my pea sized, woman’s brain.
I go through life making snap judgements of people I hire and don’t at all try to find common ground or empathise with their position, because I love pissing money up the wall and endless recruitment processes. Just floats my boat, you know
Used to work in digital design. By pure happenstance the foundational initial team on a major project was all women and we recognised that wasn’t a good balance in terms of external perception but also in terms of getting different perspectives on design approaches.
We managed to recruit some great blokes, but they were hard to find. So many of the new dudes didn’t work out because it was so obvious how inferior they perceived us women to be. Very few of them had the skills to warrant any level of arrogance, let alone full blown superiority complex.
It was disappointing.
That’s really interesting, ta!
Where is it?
It seems both unfinished and also overly modern for an abandoned property
I zoomed in to check it wasn’t ai, it’s so weird
Women are still interested in the morning and I will be in the morning
Everything except the Grindr one. Endangering people is never cool.
In the, admittedly terrible, movie Moonfall (2022) they use his tech and one of the main characters keeps saying things like “God I love Elon”. I guess it was under development in years previous but we long knew that he was a babyish edgelord (see behaviour over the rescue of the Thai soccer team in 2018).
Seems shortsighted to make him such a focus.
I’m the same. Like I like plane food. Because, whatever man, someone brought me a little parcel of food to eat. I’m stoked.
I don’t have a broad Australian accent if that helps. Think Cate Blanchett or Margot Robbie, not Steve Irwin.
People usually assume I’m a bloke based on the way I write, but I’m just Australian.
YKK zips. On anything I’ve ever owned, they don’t break. And I find that more durable clothing brands will use YKK zips.
Overworked janitor who wanted to reduce the number of bathrooms they had to clean
I mean, yes. But fbk messenger is the quickest and safest way for me to get some local random to come pick up a bird bath I don’t want.
I’ve never seen it. Was it any good?
