"Be intense with outcomes, but be chill with people" -thanks @smarcelo for the inspiring keynote, and @jefielding @EverywhereVC for hosting a great summit

It's been an honor getting to know @isaacchambers and the Silkline team over the past year+. Their product addresses a crucial need in the early stages of the supply chain, where procurement is still a manual process. Excited for big things to come! 🚀🎉https://t.co/DKG8X16pEW

1 in 6 people will be affected by infertility in their lives, according to the @WHO. With one round of IVF running upwards of $15-20k+ (not to mention the emotional and physical toll), it emphasizes the need for better policies, public financing and care https://t.co/hqvgg3pV87

@b_nicks11 @SlackHQ Will try that! I paste into word but it always takes way longer than it should

[Sara (Raffa) Garson @sarargarson]

Most frustrating part of my day... copy/pasting text from @SlackHQ and trying to get rid of the annoying grey background that won't ever go away

[Sara (Raffa) Garson @sarargarson]

Speaking of, is it grey or gray?

Working with this incredible team at Denim has been one of the highlights of my time thus far @25m_official. Their tackling such an important challenge for employers, while helping the deskless hourly workforce feel happier and more valued

@lolitataub When you can’t find someone through your networks, proactively find people on LinkedIn and reach out! Prioritize companies going through transitions since those people be will be more inclined to consider new roles.

Low hit rate and takes time but it works!

...just one of the many reasons the labor shortage isn't going away anytime soon

[Sara (Raffa) Garson @sarargarson]

We've culturally decided you are “worthless” without a college degree. So now the avg age of a manufacturing worker is 55, and 62 for an owner. These owners were successful, so their kids go to college, and we're left with no new workers @2112Power @a16z https://t.co/yineZfPS07
