Overwhelmed by the dozens of design systems articles that are published daily? Not sure where to start? I have an idea — why not start with our book? 💡📒🤗 It covers starting, selling, collaborating, maintaining, and more, all in one lovely package. 💛 https://t.co/sgqaNZvgjQ

@amfonte Haha, I've only managed to do it because it's my go-to fun thing when I'm procrastinating on paid work. :P

[Meagan Fisher Couldwell @owltastic]

Hello! I wrote a post (https://t.co/R5GH7Zumqt) sort of recapping what life has looked like for the last 10 years, where I hope to be headed, career-wise, and just generally giving an idea of what you can expect from me in the future.

FYI I'm (very thankfully omg) not actively looking for work right now lol. Just feeling a little spicy. 💁‍♀️🙋‍♀️

It will sound like this rant is about me, but it's actually about a pattern I see from talking to several friends on the job hunt (and yeah, it's a lot about me too). Get ready for some HOT TAKES! 🔥📣

[Meagan Fisher Couldwell @owltastic]

I know this is all very "okay boomer" of me, but I am curious if anyone else has seen this pattern too. I also suspect tech companies want people with no personal life so they can "give it all" to the company. No baby? The CEO is your baby! No partner? Spend weekends with us! 🙃
