All these hiring threads today make it feel like a sports off-season. Everyone is good just not on the right team/role, and it almost feels like ‘trading’ workers or signing as a free-agent is the shakeup people are seeking.
- grepfru_it 5y agoWas looking at dusty bakers stats the other night and he played professionally for 30 years, took 7 years off and started coaching. 15 years of coaching later and he’s in the World Series. I looked at my profession like that and I realize I’m on the cusp of retirement, but only from the physical tool that my body can’t handle anymore. I see all the new kids around me with no purpose, no way and I think about what an effective leader could do for them. Someone that could hone their skills into excellence. I realized that my time as an engineer is nearing an end and I need to get some coaching skills under my belt and then lead a team to the promised land. Like 50 said, get rich or die trying
