My boss just told me he'll stop paying for our Notion subscription because he sees no use. This is a guy who still requests you install Skype and won't use Slack like the rest of the team. We have Jira but nobody uses it either.

It's like working for an IT company that stood still in the 90s and never moved forward, though they brag about being high tech.

I want to cry. I need a new job. I've almost 20 years of PM experience and I'm reduced to this. I'm crying already.

That’s true. At least they moved on from carrier pigeons as well. I’m about to recommend Carrier Pigeons to those who still use Skype. It’s getting silly now with Slack, Teams and other tools offering much better communication methods.

Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?
