some of you aren't appreciating beautiful things with the disinterestedness they deserve and it really shows
 
Timmy, if makes you feel any better my wife turned the screws on me to make sure her 30th was "special." I ended up renting out a bar (cafe, really) in Charleston and catering an oyster roast. Had a live bluegrass band too. It was a great party and I have no regrets - she might have left me if I served her rainbow cake.

Well, I found out last night, that cake at brunch on Saturday wasn’t sufficient, because my wife’s birthday is today, (it’s like I am purposefully trying to ruin her birthday). So I go to the grocery store this morning and the only chocolate cake they have is a rainbow cake. So tonight my wife is either turning 30 or coming out.

if you were trying to stretch your cake budget, the brunch cake was your mistake. You absolutely could've gotten away without it becuase ya know...it's brunch.

It's an amazing job and every day is wonderful and there are no problems at all with public education and everyone loves us.

Seriously, though. We have seen a huge loss of capable teachers during and post Covid but things kind of feel stupidly optimistic right now in education from those of us that remain. Also, I honestly enjoy my work and coming in every day and live in an area with a ridiculously low cost of living so I'm probably the last person that should act like teaching is terrible.

Weird follow-up from my prior comment, but I had the realization that every job I have gotten since law school, the interview was with a male. Even when the screening has been done by a male, I have been much more successful in getting to the 2nd round of interviews. Maybe there are somethings I am doing subconsciously, but considering the vast majority of HR people are female, this has been the realization that has led me to get an interview coach.

i'm always much more succesful with women Hirers.

This new job has more women than I've ever seen in IT/Tech/Telecom
CEO-woman
Sr VP Sales- Woman
VP Sales- woman
60% of the directors in sales are women and 60% of my team are women.
It is traditionally a sausage factory... it's striking how female driven this place is

Another note: The entire company (all 29,000 employees) are assigned to a group for a Brene Brown book club.

The 2 last notes may or may not be related

I am also seeing a lot more female GC's, so if I am doing something that is pissing off women, I want to make sure I nip that in the bud.
