Taking vacation is not a solution if you are out of bandwidth. When on vacation, things on your backlog is piling up and creating more stress. If overload is momentary, people sometimes fake vacation to go through their piles before taking a real vacation. twitter.com/carnage4life/s…

One of the challenges with taking PTO is that work doesn’t stop and you’re underwater when you come back. Syncing a week long PTO across the company makes time off more restful as opposed to stressful. Impressive they’re going to do this quarterly. blog.coinbase.com/working-at-coi…

To any "cis" friends wandering in: - Cis people don't get jealous of trans people for being to be their gender. - No, not every cis person wishes they can be another gender. - The only req for being trans is wanting to be a dif gender from what you were assigned at birth.

I was wondering if any women in STEM can relate to this... Since starting my journey with sexuality, I've been considering other things like romantic orientation and gender along the way, and trying to figure out how I genuinely feel about identity and why. (1/5)

Jewish tradition teaches that if you save a life it is as though you have saved the world. Wearing a mask may save the life of a complete stranger. What a simple way to make a tremendous difference.

Strong opinion: unlimited PTO is bullshit, period. Unlimited PTO with a mandatory minimum is what you should be thinking about.

Post details

Strong opinion: "Unlimited PTO" but "you're compared to how much you take versus your peers" is not unlimited PTO. It encourages people to keep working and burn out even when they need to take the time out of fear of retribution/not having it later.

Are you familiar with the “tech filibuster”? It’s when a dude (it’s always a dude) argues a point and only proves their point by out lasting everyone else in the conversation. Doesn’t matter if they are right or wrong because they will be the last one standing and get their way.
