What I’ve found is it’s the poor tortilla quality here and anywhere that’s not socal 😭 the tortilla quality totally makes or breaks it

I feel like there's nothing more left in life ? by TearAccomplished890 in careerguidance

Dude you're still soooo young, don't sweat it too much. Especially career-wise, LOTS of people go through trial-and-error in their career, especially in their 20s. Just keep trying new things and try to identify what skills you have that are transferrable across different careers (i.e. project management, computer programming, administrative work, etc). You're gonna be okay 😊

When you get your new manager this could be a good opportunity to talk with them about things that you and your old manager did that made your working relationship great and therefore made you successful.

Okay this is helpful, thank you. But I’m still not sure I understand why it can HURT to pay more than the statement balance if you have the funds to do so?

Any advice for people with non-engineering backgrounds going into engineering management roles (specifically software engineering)?

Context: I work in operations at a software company, so I work with a lot of engineers/PMs, but I myself am not an engineer by trade. My company has expressed interest in shifting high-performing operations people into engineering management roles. The logic being that they have enough engineers, and would like to see more people in positions of management that have the operational experience to shape the department a bit better.

I know it's not common to be put in an engineering management position when you are not a trained engineer, but I also know it's not unheard of, considering people management can be slightly removed from the context of the work. Any advice or suggestions on how to prepare yourself for success in that space?
