I did an MBA which I finished about a year ago. I think the digital/tech related courses I did were interesting and relevant (I did them as electives). Strategy was actually awesome, but no one seems to hire junior strategist (and I ha

I uploaded a picture of my late chihuahua, "Princess Sparkles," and the suggested names were "Biscuit", "Jingles", or "Cocoa". I personally feel that these names are just not quite creative enough. Th

During the height of anxiety of the COVID pandemic, I did some training in ICU because a key part of my job is ventilators/ventilating people, and they were worried there wouldn't be enough people in ICU with the skills for an inf

Reading this reminded me of some academic literature I had to read for forensic psychology that is kind of reflective of a new school of thought in psychology with regard to social justice and the ethical responsibilities of psy-practitione

Wow! I had no idea! I can’t believe there’s one that lived in an airport for 27 years.

I Seen Airport mentioned as a Suggestion, and wondered… what airport would you try life at for free, and why?

That is pretty cool! I have a screen I can put over my laptop screen that does the same thing, but I realised that depending on the angle you could still view some stuff on my screen. I never do any work outside of home/work so it does

Do people who do their work in cafés consider the fact that other people can see what they’re working on? I like people watching and sometimes shoulder surfing. It’s a curiosity thing. If I can see someone doing work, I will sit somewhere w

I’m not sure that everyone can exercise control over it. Perhaps for some people who have a specific phobia to blood or needles, they could do some kind of therapy that helps reduce their fear response. I know from my own personal experien

Yeah, I think in future I will only list ones that I think are relevant to the job I’m applying for. I don’t plan to quit studying, it keeps me grounded and focused and I enjoy it.

Ok, well what would you do for someone in crisis then? How would you help someone?

The feminists in my forensic psychology course would have absolutely roasted that guy and his “ugly truths” post. I don’t consider myself to be a feminist, but I thought some of his “ugly truths” were out dated and I thought the appeal to g
