I thought the post yesterday was isolated hiccup in the process, I guess not! Scaling HR must be less of a priority & nightmare when the entire company is engineering focused. Human touch get lost with such growth.

Forget books - the cost of phone calls from/to inmates cannot be justified in this age and day. I can understand the need to limit calls but the cost is simply exploitive to put it mildly.

If I was in your position - I would push for integration of some sort while keeping the two products separate for now. Then have a separate team from both organizations start on a new product that borrows from both products. Obviously it’s

I’ll finally dig into frontend frameworks like react. I’m an old fart (started as C dev) and assumed it was a fad years ago - even thought no JavaScript was the future. Silly me, now I have to play catch-up.

I thought that the casting & acting for the scene was on purpose to demonize the VIPs / controllers (westerners). Evan costumes were horrible MardiGras masks would have even been a step up.

Same way I would never understand appeal of WWE or super hero movies for that matter. Did you happen to watch Parasite - it’s sorta cut from the same cloth. Curious if it didn’t interest as well.

Hiring process involving multiple decisions makers can drag on- but there’s no excuse for ghosting. I used to ghost people dating-wise to avoid uncomfortable (it’s not you it’s your dog) conversations until I got ghosted myself. It hurt and

I get the weirdness- the key is to leave before it gets weird -/ before bridges are burned.

I guess you’ll know 3 months in post hiring. But on a serious note - take home assignments (if any) should only be a small part of evaluation.

Your first & the easiest consulting client should be your current employer. Second and third clients should come from your network etc. Don’t fall into freelance sites consulting gigs. It will be minimum wage type of work.

People mentioned cheap property but property taxes in TX are insane… but I guess it helps that they don’t have state income taxes.

Looked on Amazon - even Walmart has them. It's a little pricy but I think it's worth it. I bring keys with me everywhere.

This is a new one for me! I do it all the time as a courtesy - now I would have to think twice, thanks to you! lol

Thank you for the comment - just had a lightbulb moment - that’s what’s going to socks stockings for Christmas. Keychain version is perfect & portable.

I wondered too... the normal text was below the infographic. And like you I truly enjoyed the infographic as well.

There was a news story [0] recently about 2 teenagers that died in the back of the car due to carbon monoxide poisoning - I thought it was very unusual and had wondered if the cat was faulty. I now wonder if it was damaged due to attempted

I guess you cheat your taxes then - 1099 sucks, you don't get employer matches on taxes.

That's truly a blindspot for everyone - you'll have to assume they have logs of accepted & canceled rides. The only thing I can think about for now is taking screenshot of accepted rides as a record.

Like others have mentioned referral doesn’t mean acceptance… be direct with rejection. If it’s a demand,then you have a dicey situation to deal with… I once had a highly-valued employee try to “forcing” me to hire the brother. I resisted, t

Have you hired anyone? Asking because your comment make it sounds like there's science to it. I don't like the committee hiring as well but team or manager level hiring can segment the company culture. Also individuals can be bias

I've been where you're. It's maddening. Everyone is recommending you find what you truly love - that sounds good and all, but life is not that simple (you got to make a living for example - what you "love" might not

I’m sort of in the same boat - I live in small town and it’s a struggle to explain SAAS model to some local accountants. Add crypto to the mix and it becomes a real struggle. That said, you don’t need a regular accountant, if I may be presu

I can relate in so many ways - by any measure I’ve had some success looking-in-from-outside, but deep-down I know I’m probably at 25% of my true potential. It can be maddening. Like you, I came from nothing [0] my dream growing up was to ma

Not an alternative idea - just want to mention that don’t trust inspector picked by the bank. Pay for extra independent inspector - it will save you thousands especially if it’s an older home with potential hidden issues.
