@jamiebuilds I was literally JUST playing it. 😂 https://t.co/iWa2KilYce
Tonight’s #awslambda Meetup kicking off at @industrieandco! https://t.co/79qrlG3ewl
@yow_conf @TacticalGrace @jedws Saved the best view for last, eh boys?
Keen to learn about machine learning with serverless from Alex Yu at @Green_Dot! #awslambda https://t.co/2de07mdxoR
Interesting. Alex wanted to use Rasa NLU for language processing, but the libraries are too large for AWS Lambda. So he figured out a way to compress! #awslambda https://t.co/M5PWE2kTJC https://t.co/0p4xIKuO64
Me: I hope somebody tweets the #yownight. WAIT! @unixbigot to the rescue! 😁👍
RT @georgiecel: 📢 We are looking for a host for the next @codebarSyd event on Tuesday 3rd April. We usually need a few desks and chairs for…
It’s like a sitcom punchline at this point.
Him: “Hey Kris! My company is hiring for this tech leadership role… Can you recommend anyone?”
Me: “Why wouldn’t you ask if I was interested?”
Cue furious backpedaling.
No, I’m not looking for a new job. I like my job. But if you’re going to ask me to do the unpaid emotional labour of recruiting for you, at least give me the pretense that you might consider me for the role too.
We have so few women tech leaders here. This contributes. Guys – before you ask a woman to help you hire someone else, see if she wants to go for it.
Otherwise the message is: you don’t look like what I think people in this role should look like. And then you wonder why we struggle with Imposter Syndrome or drop out of the industry entirely. 😐
Also, I suspect that a guy wouldn’t get the same question. Men – do you have folks asking you to recruit for them constantly? Without asking if you’re interested in the role?
@simonwaight This was an ex-colleague. And I looked at the JD – there was nothing in it that I haven’t done or couldn’t do.
@yow_conf Haha, no, that’s more MY reaction. Is a little sucking up from people asking me for a favour too much to ask?! 😂
@darthted WTF IS THAT ABOMINATION. (#teampibb)
@darthted Says the guy in the Minnesota Vikings t-shirt.
Today’s To Do list:
1. Stop fuming about constant requests for unpaid work so you can actually do the work you’re paid to do.
