Set a clear charter and goals. Is it about making something ? Is it just about a safe space to talk? Know very specifically what you want to offer your fellow employees.

People whose identity makes them a fit for an ERG usually means they more often experience discrimination, micro aggressions, etc.

As an ERG lead, members sometimes came to me with issues that needed to be handled by HR. Set expectations in advance, or you might end up in the crosshairs of a lot of challenging situations.

Anyone else still at work? Because I am.

And some people wonder why I started this bowl.

My partner and dog are sitting at home waiting for me.

Sigh.

Anyone willing to share how much they are making as an Mri technologist in Chicago? I know downtown pays better then suburbs. I work in one of the big university hospitals and make 40 per hour. I have masters and 6 years of experience. I recently learned that a new grad who doesnt have his state boards yet has 39 per hour. A coworker experience of 20 years gets 50per hour. Not sure what to think of their weird pay scale. 🙂

My professional life at the moment is far from ideal. I’ve been on quarantine (long story, but a good one) for the last seven years. Royalties from my books don’t pay the bills. My entrepreneurial pursuits remain hampered. For the interim, I’ve been looking for a remote opportunity where I can leverage my skills in marketing, sales, social media, and elsewhere for a decent sum. I have a social media presence which, in recent years, reached millions. There has to be something exciting I can do.
