Two years ago, I posted my salary history - in an impulsive move - and I absolutely do not regret it. I know directly of some the great impact having this data has had (including leading to others sharing their own), and I'm so glad to be able to use my privilege to help others

Normalize talking about about income, menstruation, mental health, and everything. Shameful , aka “taboo”, topics are a form of control; a way to keep people in their place. Shame benefits the patriarchy and the predator class. That’s why calling it what it is — the white supremacacist capitalist patriarchy— is proscribed as well. Normalize it all

The company burning you out will almost never support your recovery, mostly they'll drop you when you stop being productive. Nobody in business cares about your health but you, so be your own advocate, or suffer the consequences.

I have not slept well at all. Instead of working on negotiating layoffs, leadership is taking this extended break to congratulate themselves for what they've done. Meanwhile, workers of all disciplines and levels are either scrambling to find work or understanding what next steps they can take. I truly don't understand how people who run layoffs sleep well at night - knowing that you've signed off on the destabilizing action of so many.

Myself, along with almost 40 other workers (a large amount of @cfaworkers@union.place), were laid off from Code for America. Instead of working with workers to get a union contract, they gutted our stances. AFAIK, we will be getting COBRA covered until November 2023 and one month of severance. The workers wrote the following: https://cfaworkersunited.com/stories/2023/08/31/code-for-america-lays-off-35-colleagues

If you work in tech and haven't heard about "being glue", I would say that it's vital to read about it: https://noidea.dog/glue by @whereistanya@hachyderm.io You'll either feel extremely heard, or it will open your eyes to what some of your (disproportionately female) coworkers struggle with on a regular basis.
