podcasts - behind the bastards, you’re dead to me, no such thing as a fish

I have a 15+ year resume in my field and I struggled to find a job this year. It’s not because of you that finding a job is hard. It’s that job sites are like dating sites: the majority of posts are fake. You should decide on what kind of job you want and approach recruiters in that field - even with, maybe especially with, your requirements, they’ll be able to help you better than clicking auto-apply on LinkedIn.

Automated a copywriting gig on an extremely locked down terminal entirely in Excel VBA.

It would open my email, download the list of tasks, open a browser, extract the official product copy, RegEx it into bullets, I would add a few verbs and conjunctions, hit a button it would upload it to the CMS. Turned an 8 hour day into 30 mins.

really a mix, pop, death metal, jazz, alt, edm… although if I need to concentrate it needs to be a song that I don’t know if it has lyrics as otherwise it’s distracting

Eh. it’s start up culture. They give the C suite 50 million dollars and want 100 million dollars in 10 years and they aren’t shy about going full Gordon Ramsay on anyone not 100% dedicated to that, even if you just get paid hourly to manage social media

venture capital. a group of investors with money who will put that money into promising companies so when it’s successful you make more money back.
