So my friend accepted a Job opening as a physical therapist and one of the patients insulted him. He said that no other worker here is as “fat and scrawny” as you. He told the patient that genetics play a role in how you appear even if you lift weights regularly.

When he talked to me about this, he was crying. I felt bad for him. I think that he should tell his employer or maybe consult with attorney or seek other jobs.

What do you guys think? Is this a form of workplace harassment?

I think it probably comes with the territory. Much like fast food cashier jobs. Sometimes dealing with a jerk person is part of it. That doesn't make it fair or right, but it's reality. Always has been and always will be. Your friend should be grateful to have a job and might want to, as they say, grow a pair and thicken the skin. If they can't or won't, then maybe that's not the job for them. Now actual verbal and/or physical assault is a different story. But that doesn't appear to be the case here.

Hello fellow designers!

I was laid off back in August and I have been trying to get a product/UX/UI job ever since then. With the recession and all of the crazy things that are happening right now it has been even harder.

Is anyone hiring a mid-level Product/UX/UI designer?
I have 3 years of experience as a UX/UI Designer and I am available to start working immediately! (Remote work is preferred since I live in Phoenix, AZ and there are not a lot of tech jobs here)

TIA ♥️

People that have small children - how do you deal with your child’s stress and separation anxiety when you go to work? My 4-year old goes berserk almost every day at some point relating to me having to work. The worst part is that I’ve been working from home bc of Covid and I’m literally just walking upstairs after giving hugs and kisses and saying see you soon 800 times. My spouse is a stay at home parent, but that doesn’t seem to matter to my son. A piece of me dies everyday because of this.

After listening to the Mike Saylor podcast with Lex Friedman, it made me reconsider my notions I had about BTC layer 2. IMO ETH has thoroughly eaten BTC’s lunch from a development/dapp perspective. I’m 50/50 allocated in both because as Mike says BTC is durable digital property while I see ETH as the platform for application functionality. Would be interested to hear other’s takes. At the core of it, I’m not sure myself and others will ever want to spend BTC, even if fees were negligible.
