I had three conversations since this morning that all started with “I have been thinking over Christmas…” That pause does something to people. It gives space for honesty. What realisation did the break give you about work?

I turned in my letter of resignation yesterday. I realized on the break how much I hated my job and dreaded going back. Doing some freelance work to keep me afloat until I find something else.

LinkedIn is a garbage app where I can’t even post my opinion or experience because it will go against the mainstream ideologies. If I even “like” a post then I worry that my peers and managers see what I like and suddenly I need inclusivity training. What a load of shit! You can’t be who you truly are on that app. Which is why I like fishbowl so much, the anonymity is a game changer. If LinkedIn was a anonymous, we’d see a lot more support for Kanye and a lot less LGBQT material. Bet!
