Keep working on those evil KPIs*, you’ll get there.

*Not to be confused with regular KPIs, which are not required to be evil just usually are.

Not really, but it’s consistent with my beliefs in life before and during work as well.

What’s the DEAL with WIVES anyway

It was never properly contained in the first place.

FYI the scene this is from. If you “so bad it’s good” media I highly recommend Danger 5. It’s one of the very few things to initially try that and pull it off.

You might know it from this gif.

I kinda hate to be like this, but if you are in a tech position, past the early entry level nonsense, and not making six figures (in the US) then you need to be job hunting.

I don’t know if any particular certification will get you there, but IT remains a great practical field to be in. Don’t make any sort of “I’m just in this for the money” apologies.

It’s where a lot of tech employees hang out. You have to verify that you have an email address with the company’s domain to post, but otherwise super anonymous. It can be super toxic and you see a lot of fake posts, plus your account isn’t revoked after you leave the company, but the original OP definitely has/had a Twitter email address.

I don’t have a medical background, but my suspicion is the process of formulating a thought, deciding what meaning you want to convey, and then settling on what words accomplish that is far more complicated and delicate than we give it credit for. I suspect any sort of issue can wreck the whole process, which might explain why really good communicators are so rare.

For myself, ADHD medication really helps slow my brain down and thinking things through before opening my mouth. Turns out that’s an important part in (properly) verbalizing thoughts.
