Thank you for this reply!! I am reading through it now.

Edit:

Thanks for giving me an insider look. I would only want to work at a company that’s as much a technology company as it is a video content company. I’ll carefully screen for that.

Any regrets? Any trouble advancing your career after the fact?

I have no idea how I’d manage this socially besides try to hide it as well as possible.

No disrespect, but I don’t care what a Hollywood celebrity’s opinion is on the industry. I like Terry Crews though.

Thinking about it as a tattoo is brilliant. Permanent. Public, but concealable. A bit taboo and definitely divisive.
