“Legitimate concerns” is now itself a dog whistle. Any mouth it comes out of is about to spout some great replacement theory tripe. Guaranteed

1:1’s with a great manager are absolute gold. Also great managers, focus on being enablers. “Have you considered ditching all that crap, and switching to ‘Just ****ing Do It’ methodology?” + “Can I do anything to make problems go away? What about tea, do you need tea? Coffee? Beer??” (actual quotes)

It’s so nice how little of that there is over here. Like stepping outside for a minute on a cold day. Hope it generally lasts. A little peek over the wall here and there is ok (bsky.app/profile/best...). But there are many other much better and more interesting hobbies lol
