A woman at the bar thought “The Babadook” was “Mommy Dearest” and wow did she clearly have a much different childhood than me.

Nothing like a family death to show that your father doesn’t actually know your last name. At least my parents were consistent I guess.

Christine Crawford and Jeanette McCurdy, give me strength. 🙏

You can’t “just get over” something no one apologized to you for. And if you’ve made someone hate things about themself, you’re probably not an actual “friend” or “family”.

Nothing like preparing for an interview that already got pushed back a week only for it to be a no-email no-show from the company 🙃

So, like, marriage is pretty much telling your spouse about something you “just learned” that they actually told you about 6 years ago. Back and forth. Forever.

PSA: “Softly scatting to yourself” is a weirdly unsettling thing for one to do when waiting in a long line.

We have some news to share with you. 🥄

Today we took legal action to challenge our termination, filing an appeal with the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board. We did this because we believe the elimination of 18F violated safeguards that exist to protect a nonpartisan civil service.

Worked at a tech conference today, retrieving orders for attendees. One man rudely barked that he already gave me his claim number, and when I went to see who he had actually talked to, it was an older, shorter Asian woman with longer hair. Dude didn’t realize he got to talk to TWO women today.

Reflecting on it now, I should probably have an accessibility project to share that DOESN’T involve fart noises.

Taking a 4 hour tech test with multiple code challenges AND a multiple choice quiz to get an interview only shows that a candidate has literally nothing else they could be doing for 4 hours.

Y’all (especially recruiters): if you are rejecting someone, it is needless to use the phrase “I know it’s not the news you want”. That’s literally the definition of rejection.

Here’s a new one: Got a call on Tuesday about a job I interviewed for to say the offer is imminent. Got a call today saying oops, they actually had meant to call someone else: the person who actually got the job.

“You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take” but in this current job market the statistics aren’t much different than for the 100% of the shots you DO take. 🫠

Ah, it’s officially that point in winter when I forget how to interact with all other life forms.

Does anyone else feel like in this current tech job climate it feels very presumptuous to even ask about next steps in an interview or follow up? Like there are so many talented folks looking for jobs, if I’m just mid I respect a company’s choice to just ghost me.

Voting for the Mayor Who Promised to Blow Up the City Doesn’t Mean I Approve of the Mayor Blowing Up the City
It’s so easy to label people these days. From the way folks have been talking, you’d think everyone falls into two buckets: those who voted against...
