Sometimes circumstances are what they are. You may not be able to change what’s going on around you but you can change your approach. #jobsearch #careers

Just a casual reminder that Germans who “didn’t bother to vote” in 1932 didn’t get a chance again until 1946, after Hitler’s death. — There’s a lesson there.

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.
Who would have thought this would still be so relevant 60+ years later?
🎵Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs fly Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind

I am a nut about the importance of education. My two favorite educational institutions? Voc Techs and Community Colleges.

One of my huge pet peeves...
wasting taxpayer dollars because of poor #Executive #Leadership.
"Women over 50 who have had to change sectors or rebuild confidence after setbacks often develop a powerful capacity to learn, unlearn, and relearn."
"They thrive on discernment: the ability to read a situation, understand context, weigh trade-offs, & anticipate consequences."
Why women over 50 are the future of work in the age of AI
And why you should hire them to survive in a world of chaos.

The same idiots who think Trump, who dodged the draft five times, knows how to win a war also think Trump, who declared bankruptcy six times, knows how to run the economy.
That’s what Trump Derangement Syndrome actually looks like.

It’s hard to come up with two worse people for this moment than Trump and Hegseth. Incompetent, impulsive, insecure, boastful, petty, unprepared, irresponsible liars.

The squalor of Trump has brought us back to the basics — especially understanding the importance of checks and balances and separation of powers.
This is a mess of Trump's own making — and a reminder that he's not all powerful. nbcnews.com/politics/supreme…

Most people aren't staying at their jobs because they're happy.
They're staying because the alternative is worse.
During the ZIRP era, you could spell javascript and earn yourself an offer elsewhere with a 20% salary increase.
Now these days?
You're competing against the largest pool of active, qualified candidates in your career. Interview processes are longer, more intense, and that's assuming you even hear back. Most people are sending hundreds of applications just to get a single call.
To many folks currently employed, it's simply not worth it to see what else is out there.
