Finally announced my new role to the developers! Feels good to start acting in an official capacity.
Finally feel like I am moving towards my career path in tech! Managing a backlog now instead of people. New set of issues but I feel like I am in a much better fit for my skills.
No phone company, cellphones are not "last minute gifts" 😣

Working different schedules with your SO is like a medium distance relationship
My cat sure does love her heating pad (my laptop)
Programming is like writing a story. You have to make all the sub plots work towards a common thread (no guarantees). Some stories explain everything (boilerplate), others rely on the reader to fill in (frameworks). In the end, it hopefully approximates what you wanted to tell.

The reader is a machine that doesn't understand sarcasm
Oh geez, apparently i didn't push my headset into the cradle all the way...no voice calls today! 🕺😜
I hate office politics so much, nothing makes my blood boil more than people jockeying for clout and ownership.
I get 3 one hour meetings to prepare a presentation on a system i am not familiar with...and then i'm told my presentation isn't detailed enough...😵
Yay, gas is down by a few pennies 🙏

The world ending is a comfortable fantasy people are falling back on, because it means you never have to worry about the future. The reality is that we'll all be here in 30 years, life will just be harder and sadder. It's easier to believe in an apocalypse.

I feel like the title Supervisor should really be called Business Firefighter
Why do toilet paper rolls have this initial phase where they don't fit in the dispenser!? All i can find in the good TP these days is MEGA rolls 😤
I'm amazed that in a field dominated by symbolic representations of concepts, people still feel the need to complain about not remembering symbols. Not every job allows you to just google basic concepts to perform job duties...
Workforce bombshell dropped this AM. Time to start scrambling for efficiencies 😵
Replying to @typewise_app
@typewise_app i am an avid fan of your hex layout but i have two gripes: 1) if forward swipe is space, why do we need spacebar buttons? I struggle to hit them frequently which causes a mess that then gets autocorrected into oblivion.

2) wish there was a way that you could integrate forward and back, as i hate when you click to correct something, i'm always off by one letter and then struggle with moving the cursor
