The short relationship after the long relationship. It’s a thing. We call it a rebound in romantic relationships — the twenty year marriage followed by a one year marriage. It happens. And professional rebounds? Ten years in one job, then no more than six months in the next three? Also a thing.

Just deactivated my Threads account. Barely using it and you don’t need both of these things. Bluesky seems to be a better long term bet.

Usual Wellington commuter chaos to start the year. No trains running and not enough train replacement buses. Happy new year same as the old year!

This is the content I’m here for!
It’s Thursday, and from Jan 2025, that means the #HRHour returns!

A very warm welcome to the new people who have recently joined our growing community.

The more of us we have, the broader our views, knowledge and support evolves.

Joining the exodus from X. Just deactivated my account which was strangely liberating, like I’ve escaped a cult and reconnected with family and friends 😂
