My first thoughts: I am not a huge fan of books that assume how I’m going to react to a given prompt. I’m a little annoyed that the assumption is that I would have thought that the woman’s face is angry and that I would have a stressful reaction the the math problem. I actually couldn’t tell she was angry immediately, so I hope neuro-atypical examples of these concepts are considered at some point (and I didn’t attempt the math, because).

I messed up my screenshare in a meeting with 2 colleagues and showed my personal email that had scheduling info for my onsite interviews with another company. I closed it but it was up long enough for them to see it. Now they both pretend like they saw nothing and I felt panic for some reason. How were your experiences when letting it out the bag early like that?

NFT peeps, get a Doodle while you still can. Bought mine for 1.5 ETH last week. Now at 3.9 floor. Other collections that I think have a lot of potential: Lil Baby Ape Club, Cosmic Labs ducks, Party Apes, and Stoner Cats. Cool Cats are pricey. Little Alien Club is super duper cheap but a total Hail Mary gamble.

Fellow fishes
Got recently promoted to PC. Was told by "mentor" that I am being a bit "soft" with people (for example: I'm always helping people around me even when I just don't have time. And I am getting into a troubles because of my attitude) and I have to learn how to say "No" more often.
Any good reading about the topic? Heard good things about Radical Candor.
