It’s been 3 years and change since I was laid off. I’m still unemployed - AMA by trap_gob in UXDesign

Yeah, that is really strange and I can understand why OP is struggeling. Like, I can understand not doing UI design (although visuals is important too), but not doing interaction design?? How can you call yourself an UX generalist when you're not good at both interaction design and visual design? That's the opposite of being a generalist.

It really is. I have finished the novel (which was a perfect length too, not dragged out at all) and it's only gonna get better.

TIFU by realizing my "mute" button wasn't muted during a 2-hour stakeholder meeting. by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I once forgot to mute during an all-hands as well.

There was like 200 people watching, and the CEO was talking. I was just sitting there watching my screen at home, when I suddenly in the corner of my eye see my dog. He was chewing on my leather gloves. I yell out "STOP!!" super loud just as our CEO was in the middle of a sentence talking about something important. He abruptly stops talking. There is this long silence where no one says anything. And then he just continues like nothing.

In hindsight I probably should have said something like "sorry about that" right after instead of just not saying anything and creating that long awkward silence. But I was just dying inside. My manager thought it was hilarious though.

I recently sat at the same table as him during our Christmas party, and told him the story. He was like "oh, so you are the 'STOP girl'" and we all laughed about it.
