I recently lost my job and am looking for my next role in IT/customer support.
I have 10+ years of experience in technical support (Windows, Microsoft 365, remote troubleshooting) and I focus on helping users solve problems quickly and clearly.
I also have Cerebral Palsy.
Honest question: would you still consider a candidate like me based on skills and experience first, or does a disability change that decision before interview?

One thing they don't prepare you for when you're getting into advertising is the extent to which being a cheerleader propels you. I'm not a misanthrope, but I'm definitely not naturally wired for cheerleading and it for sure has had an adverse impact on my career.

I have a coworker who keeps spouting comparative odds and situations in regards to the safety of the vaccine. Such as: you're twice as likely to get hit by lightening than have blod clots from JJ. It's very annoying and I find it to be really inapprorpriate, maybe because it's pushy or just I find these comparative things to be a bit irrelevant. How does one handle something like that? Can you shut the person down without starting a spat?
