Yeah, it's written like a Malcom Gladwell pop-econ book which was apparently enough for it to be my vacation read.

This is an obvious one everyone knows, but The Subtle Art of not Giving a F*ck is a great listen

Can’t Hurt Me - David Goggins

Deep Work by Cal Newport

The Graveyard Book - Neil Gaiman

I remember all of the Michael Lewis books were pretty good. I usually prefer the ones where the author is the narrator, Tony Robbins, Kevin Hart, etc.

But came here just to share that you should get the Libby app. Free audiobooks forever!

Check out born a crime by trevor noah. narrated by trevor.

Fantasy fiction - mistborn and wheel of time if you can get through a mammoth 14 book series.

Square Veeva @teletracking

Trying to decide between 3 offers remote/Columbus

Square is 84k salary 5k bonus and 80k stocks vesting over 4 years
Veeva is 100k salary 20k bonus and 25k Stocks each year forever
Teletracking is 125k cash 5k bonus

I know about Square the most and if they paid closer to Veeva and Teletracking I’d probably go there but it seems like they underpay.
The Veeva culture seems really good but it’s a sustaining engineer position for year 1 so debugging
