From a Twitter Director’s private slack. A reminder that white collar workers are nothing to their boss, either. You aren’t special just because you work with your brain instead of your hands.

This is shocking… not because of what he said but by all of the people’s reactions on here. Companies and senior management has always thought this way and any one thinking otherwise is naive of them. Once you get into management you will understand the importance of balancing employees interest, the firms interest, and your own interests. Yes it’s hard to hear and accept, but once you do it’s freeing. Use this knowledge and always prioritize yourself first.

The short: Would anyone be up for starting regular virtual co-working sessions? I’m thinking 2-3 rounds of [5 mins to set intentions : 45 mins of work : 10 min break]. The long: One technique I’ve found to stay focused is “body doubling,” i.e., having another person present while you’re working. I’ve had some success replicating this over Zoom/Google Meet. Everyone works on their own thing and stays muted during work blocks, but videos stay on. It reminds me of studying in the library vs at home

I’m interviewing for a job, but I’m getting a toxic vibes.
1. want me to relocate to NY but the supervisor is based in another state. Why am I relocating?2. commented on my outfit (a shirt and tie) for zoom and laughed that I dressed up for an interview
3. Said if I hadn’t reached out to someone on the team prior to applying, he would’ve declined my application for being outside NY.
4. asked my favorite movie and said “he fell asleep” during
