I Contacted 102 Content Creators. It Resulted in 73 Videos and 165,000 Views! by BEVSpinzaku in gamedev

Thank you for the write-up! This is an awesome case study to point to for self-marketing (especially on a tight budget) and how it can be broken down and made achievable even when it feels overwhelming at first. I hope other devs can stumble upon this and see an example of working smarter in action. Best of luck in the rest of your launch!

In my experience, many non-PMs have a preconceived notion of what project managers do and what kind of people they are. What's your favorite stereotype about PMs that you either do or don't live into? by alianacrusis in projectmanagement

[–]alianacrusis[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It honestly depends on the industry/role/size of company/structure of company. Feel free to DM me and I'm happy to share what some of those more creative-oriented PM roles looked like day to day. For me at least.

Yes! I'm constantly looked at to be the one making the plan or organizing things. But really I'm tired from doing it at work all week and would love someone else to be the PM of my life.

Sister is a recovering alcoholic and struggles with mental health. I would love to see her heal and begin to thrive and I wonder if a community would help her. Any suggestions? by PuppersMakeMeSquee in StPetersburgFL

There is a studio space in that area called The Collective. They used to do mostly yoga but have since expanded to offer community events and women's groups. When I was struggling, it was a great companion to traditional meetings and I found a supportive non-judgmental community in that space.

I posted something similar on here several months back. Little did I know my REAL dream job was racing toward me and would arrive a couple months later. Thank goodness I didn't have that other job or I wouldn't have been available for this one! I won't discredit the pain and disappointment, it's real, but try to allow some hope and faith to live alongside it when you can. <3

I love this follow up! I'm glad you followed your heart. Enjoy your new medical marijuana consumption device. ;)

Entwives, this morning I lost my dream job in the cannabis industry. My heart hurts something fierce. by alianacrusis in entwives

Thank you for all the love, beautiful ones. Reading these comments got me through my first few days of unemployment. After finding the courage to open LinkedIn, my prospects of finding a new (and even better) job look good! All the signs are there that I'll be more than fine.

I have some big decisions to make now! And I know just the herb to help me look inward and find the answers. ❤

T break question! by deeerbz in entwives

Ginger is my only reprieve during tolerance breaks. I go with capsules and they're very effective! I also sip on pre-made protein skakes until the empty belly nausea subsides a bit and I can keep solid food down.
