Can’t bear to do this job another day but there’s a recession looming, lay offs/hiring freezes everywhere and to top it off I have no notable skills or accomplishments to jump ship with. UGH.

I have a very particular set of skills…

We know this isn’t true because we have monthly jobs data showing us that layoffs are anecdotal at best. In fact, with 3.5% unemployment, our jobs situation is better than it’s been anytime in the past 50 years. We would have to lose 7 million jobs before we even reach the peak economic boom before 2008. That’s how strong our job market is right now

So why do you believe layoffs are everywhere? Well, midterms are just around the corner, and since fewer than 25% of Americans are registered dad Republican, the only way they can win is if they scare you

I’m confused by all these posts about Product Owners. I’ve worked at 3 Bay Area-based tech companies over 6 years and never heard of a Product Owner. As a product manager, i work with my engineering and design partners to figure out what to build and then build it. What role would a product owner play in all this? My honest assumption is that this role was invented by companies that want to pretend to be doing agile but aren’t really, but I’m open to being proven wrong.
