What was the lightbulb moment that made you realize you deserved better? I finally got a job offer today for a 20% raise and a fully remote role, and the relief I feel is indescribable. Looking back, I can’t believe I let my current manager convince me that I was lucky to even have a job and that I wouldn't cut it anywhere else. It’s like

Do you have many LGBT friends and do you necessarily care if you do or don’t? I have one gay friend who I catch up with occasionally and I think my husband has two. I never really cared either way about it, however I feel like I’m at that point where you primarily make new friends through existing ones, and they are having children and making other “parent” friends.

Customers are giving us bad experience ratings because we don’t offer them the solutions they want. Our company won’t allow us to offer those solutions, but the manager punishes us for low ratings anyway. I don’t get how they’re ok with that.
