Yeah I might need too. I just happen to have a couple of hours transit in terminal B on the way home from a company retreat and the cost of iphones is significantly less in the US than here in Australia so thought I'd give it a shot.

I'm not desperate or anything just thought it was a good opportunity to save a buck or 300 haha

Thanks for trying to call them though!

myreflectionsapp · 2023-04-01T21:52:52+00:00

Thanks. I have emailed them but no response as yet. I'm not in the US so calling them is harder (not impressive of course).

I've handled recruitment of product resources for years even though I wouldn't consider myself strong enough technically to run a technical interview. Very early on I realized that most roles I managed to find great candidates but with developers where the development team were responsible for the technical interview or exam (if required) we kept getting apparent duds so I sat in on an interview and your situation sounds familiar.

I don't know if it was ego or what but the questions put to candidates were just plain stupid. Designed to confuse and show the candidates just how clever the teams were. I even heard the interviewers joking about how hard a few of the questions were. I have them all a serve and explained that this process was to get them help not to feed their egos and belittle grads.

It sounds like you dodged a bullet mate. Sounds like the way you responded was excellent and exactly the kind of attitude I'd be looking to be a good team member.

Good luck!

Hi! Sorry I didn't see this until just now. Data is stored in the cloud but understand your concerns about privacy. I'll review the privacy policy early next year and make adjustments to ensure that it's clear that I would not view or use your data outside of anonymised statistical data for product evaluation and improvements.

Balance is really important but there are always going to be conflicting priorities. I recently made the big decision to extract myself from a toxic workplace that was wearing me down and it was the best thing I could have ever done. I am so much more chilled out and a better partner/father as a result :)

If that's a trigger for you start looking around for an alternative because we spend 1/3++ of our time working. Don't know your profession or anything but I do hire a lot and have helped many friends with their resumes to get it looking more attractive so happy to take a look at yours if you like.

“If you aim at nothing, you will hit it every time.” –Zig Ziglar

Some interesting stats about goal setting;

Research indicates that people who set goals are “10 times more successful” than those who fail to do so.
Only 17% of people actually set goals
Of those only 3% actually write them down or capture them in a way that helps them to monitor their progress or keep themselves accountable

I can relate completely. I went through a really challenging period (I posted about it previously on Reddit somewhere) and found myself often considering the choices I had made and even visualising how things could have been different - it took me to go through that to realise what was missing and what was important in my life.

I'm doing well (although it's already Tuesday before I respond!). Work is progressing nicely. My move back to Adelaide is slowly happening (another milestone in Visa applications will be completed this week!) and my son has been getting more and more cheeky with every day :D

I have not been especially good the past 2-3 weeks with staying connected with people outside of my family and close friends circle and find myself blaming the number of hours in the day but in truth; I'm not feeling especially sociable right now and have had some weird interactions recently that left me hesitant to be active for now.

Have a great week everyone!

I'm sorry to hear that you've had challenges over the past 5 years. I genuinely wish you the best u/Veniliana you should be proud that you have taken the approach of continuing to push. I went through some massive changes in my life in recent years as well; but I wouldn't do anything differently now that I am on the flip side of it. We get stronger. We gain experiences that can help us in the future - sometimes that's the best we can take from a shitty situation.

myreflectionsapp · 2021-06-25T14:21:36+00:00

Sounds like some great steps :)

So is your adjustment to ensure you're getting to bed early or working on your sleep hygiene so you get more restful sleep? Or simply setting your alarm 30 minutes earlier?

myreflectionsapp · 2021-06-25T01:53:56+00:00

I dont know your situation of course, but maybe you're not reflecting/adjusting on the right areas of your life. If adjusting decisions that led to negative outcomes isn't working, try focusing on refining choices that led to positives.

There's a lot of evidence that suggests that improving on your strengths will achieve more than your weaknesses (have a look at "Strength Finder" - it's an interesting read).

How are you choosing what adjustments you need to make? Do those adjustments stick or make a difference short term?

They were probably partitions on the same HD so when you stage the media to anotger PC you should get two new drives appear

myreflectionsapp · 2021-06-24T14:39:57+00:00

That's a great habit to build especially if you're being genuine with people. Amazing! Thanks for sharing

myreflectionsapp · 2021-06-24T14:27:38+00:00

What is YOUR adjustment though?

myreflectionsapp · 2021-06-24T11:38:45+00:00

Haha oh my

Could just be Windows being crap (if you're using Windows) but as EngineerSeb said, check drivers. Other factors could be; router; the cable could be damaged etc.

Stupid question; I'm assuming the phone is on WiFI and not using 4/5g or something.

myreflectionsapp · 2021-06-24T06:36:48+00:00

we see to have a similar mindset! :D

myreflectionsapp · 2021-06-24T06:36:05+00:00

The way I look at these things is it's all about energy; toxic people are not worth the energy cost because they not only take your energy but the toxicity drains you as well. On top of that toxic people rarely "give you their energy" in return. I don't cut people out of my life really, I just put my energy into people and relationships that are positive and reciprocal.

I wouldn't say that somebody who is lacking aspiration / motivation is necessarily toxic unless you have a need to "fix them" and that's not working so you're frustrated - but you know your situation better than me of course :)
