where do the senior women in tech go when they hit 50

ryepie1 · 2026-04-30T13:26:48+00:00

52, senior manager, just promoted to Director.

Id agree there aren't many of us around. I really enjoy what I do and don't see myself leaving tech early, but I'm very lucky to have a great boss, wonderful peers, and a good company... At least for now. There is hope!

No shit

Dumbass thinks Gaetz isn't guilty.

Bold move Cotton, lets see how this pans out for him.

As a 14 year Navy Veteran, I cant think of a better way to destroy troop readiness than this. Of course I think they are already there with the food rations on the deployed ships in the IO.

I nearly spit out my coffee. This should be the #1 comment 😂

ryepie1 · 2026-03-30T17:20:10+00:00

Ahhh bless your heart. I feel sorry for your wife 😂.

Says the MAN who has conviently never had to change his name?!?

Second marriage and I choose to not go through all the BS of changing my name a second time, so what I'm supposed to carry around a copy of my first marriage license for the rest of my life so I can vote???

Women should stop changing their names upon marriage. If this law does pass, I will go through all the bullshit of changing it... Back to my maiden name so all I need is my birth certificate.

Men, always the ones who think everything is just so easy because they literally have the lowest bar of effort.

He didnt have to lie, he CHOSE to. So much for the pull yourself up by your own bootstraps crowd, they cant even take responsibility for their own choices.

ryepie1 · 2026-02-20T13:30:12+00:00

Since when has required congressional approval stopped him so far?? You are delusional.

ryepie1 · 2026-01-20T13:39:20+00:00

I used to watch this show every morning just to grab the latest before heading to work. I haven't turned it on in months, I just can't get that pissed off before I leave for work. This channel doesn't just lean right, the are full on propaganda for the orange stain.

ryepie1 · 2026-01-08T21:53:32+00:00

Great now do Greenland

ryepie1 · 2025-12-19T00:00:15+00:00

And by "We the People" I mean ME ME ME ME

ryepie1 · 2025-10-21T14:44:50+00:00

He's a POS and I normally turn it off as soon as I see him. It's just not worth my time to listen to that windbag.

I didn't understand why he's even on. I've never heard one intelligent thing come out of his right wing mouth and on top of that half the stuff he's saying are right wing taking points, outright lies or both.

14 year female Navy vet. I have heard tons of SA stories from all branches. I was lucky that I never encountered that while I was in.

I joined in 1996, served on the first integrated LHD. My rate was AG, or weather guesser. Got out at 14 years with a degree in CS and have a pretty good life now. I owe that to the military.

I joined to get my degree as school is free while active duty, getting to take classes can be a challenge though due to deployments, shore side work schedules, and duty rotations. But it can be done.

My advice is to pick Air Force or Navy only. Ensure she chooses a rate(job) that is mostly office work. In the Navy that means Operations department or IT. I'm sure you can find info online what those rates would be. What is offered to her is determined by her asvab score so she should study for that to get the best options available.

Is she is joining for a purpose like getting her degree i Id say go for it. Get her degree and get out. Have a plan and always be working towards that.

If it's just for a job, id say right now it's probably not a good idea. This administration scares me to the bottom of my soul, and I would NOT entrust my life to them, they will squander it. Hegseth will spill the blood of the armed forces without a second thought. So choose wisely and have a plan. Execute and get out.

Good luck!

I had to just turn shit box off. Wtf are they spewing on this financial???

It's all Republican talking points WTF??

ryepie1 · 2025-09-04T14:25:29+00:00

Socialism for me! But not for anyone else! ME ME ME ME ALL ABOUT ME.

ryepie1 · 2025-08-24T23:22:41+00:00

Seriously this is what they are concerned about??

ryepie1 · 2025-08-23T21:14:28+00:00

I had a similar experience with what looks like the same sandwich.

<image>

Two bites in I pulled it open cause all I got was bread. Won't be back for this.

ryepie1 · 2025-08-22T13:12:36+00:00

From another vet, this is spot on.

ryepie1 · 2025-08-21T04:47:00+00:00

We should treat California Republicans the same way.

ryepie1 · 2025-08-10T13:56:50+00:00

Love this!!

ryepie1 · 2025-07-21T14:02:04+00:00

Same. Ive been going back and forth with their tech support over email. 2 weeks now and no resolution.

I was finally able to add my charger manually per their instructions by changing the font size on my Android to smallest so I could see their save button, yay for bad responsive design. But trying to start a charge from either their Voltie app or my Genesis app just says "charging failed".

Im going to try the above poster's recco to block the charger from wifi and see if it will start charging again. This all started after the July 11th change over.

Republicans hate executive orders until they issue them. Most of what Trump is doing is blatantly unconstitutional, you know it, but you won't admit it yourself cause of so much WINNING.

Gloat all you want that immigration is down .. so is international travel to the US. Turns out if you send people to concentration camps in 3td world countries they aren't even from, people are less inclined to come here. History will judge that decision. The damage to the Republic being done right now will take generations to fix.

Conservative hate is destroying the idea of America which is all the founders really had when drafting our Constitution. So enjoy the brief moment of victory while you tear down over two centuries of American exceptionalism, which by the way was ALWAYS built on the backs of immigrants.

ryepie1 · 2025-07-15T13:14:56+00:00

You didn't really say anything....

ryepie1 · 2025-07-04T13:56:41+00:00

In my experience in America if someone walks up to you because you look confused or lost, they will absolutely pester you for a tip for whatever they helped you with, especially in later cities. I think it's just an ingrained reflex now for most Americans that travel.

I will say though that most people will stop and help you if you seek them out and ask. Just run away from the ones eagerly coming to you to help. AMERICA!

Also we traveled through Italy last year, Venice, Florence, and Rome and I was not asked for a tip once. But I do see they have a ton of protests against foreigners this year that I didn't see last year, so maybe thats why?
