I managed multiple engineering teams before quitting big tech.
Now that I quit, I can speak freely.
Here are 12 things your manager may not be telling you, but I know for a fact will help you. 👇
@rte@RTEBrainstorm Stop devaluing working from home. I have worked at home for 6 years due to lack of Dublin office space. I still work hard and put in long hours. Why am I worth less in your eyes? @rte@RTEBrainstorm
Today my 4 yo said the nicest thing he’s ever said - “Daddy, I can’t wait to be your age, and be big and strong just like you, I love you. ”
Followed by the most cutting thing
“But you’ll probably be dead by then, sooo yeah. ”
I know I’m in a very privileged & lucky position to say this at any time but now even more so. It’s my first day back WFH after my Christmas hols & it’s just a joy to be back working on @RTEGold It’s hard to even think of it as work 💛 Music is a wonderful distraction right now.
@pcarannante@NashvilleFD Ugh, sorry to hear it was a domestic suicide bomber. It’s a dark time when a country rips itself apart from within. Guess it’ll be a long month since the current administration has no problem putting military feet on the ground internally.
@HHorsley How about a club where peeps show that they spend 10 Btc a year? We already have enough wealth hoarders in the world. We should create a mindset that btc is to be used as currency not status.
@mpjme I got a free Philips Hue as my first hit, next thing I knew I was sneaking off to IKEA to get Tradfri. Ring and Nest sending goons around now to collect subs. Home automation is a dark works to enter.
