2 days later. Multiple rebooked flights between Can/USA. Thanks for the ‘free’ hotel room I guess. 6 lost bags. Exhausted diabetic kid. #aircanada I’ve said this before but will never say it again: no. We will never trust you again. monopolies suck.

Having one or two ‘what if I?’ questions unresolved at the end, is so much worse than all the ‘how do I?’ questions along the way combined.
The rise of the celebrity chef style ‘future of work’ guru’s who haven’t actually been in the proverbial HR kitchen for the past 5+++ yrs is astounding.
Today’s head shake. A vendor selling me ‘mental health’ solutions through email blasts on Labor Day. Not even trying to soften the sell. Response: My mental health involves not answering marketing emails on national holidays.

Shared with me today: what if we ran Corp hiring like pro sports teams? I’ll trade you a sr director and two first round draft picks for that C level exec. #DraftDay

Half my inbox is people moving on to new roles from big companies. Totally anecdotal, and it might have something to do with my friends' age cohort, but feels like remote-only big companies are having a really hard time with talent retention. True?

Scouting and building a new high performance team from scratch during hyper growth is like trying to win a championship as first year expansion team with no draft picks.
The finish line is just the starting line in disguise.

The upside of work from home is clear. Free nail salon services for dad.

I’m looking forward to the Summer fashions inspired by the authentic WFH Mullet street wear we’ve all adopted. Business up top. Sweatpants and shorts down below.

Love the @ModernTreasury team. Incredibly thoughtful management team. So refreshing! Definitely worth a look if you’re in the market for a job change in the Bay Area.
We know there's a lot of uncertainty and craziness out there right now, but @ModernTreasury remains focused, funded, and in hiring mode. If you're interested in joining a high performing early stage team we're hiring in engineering, design, and marketing. angel.co/company/moderntreas…

I still believe ‘know thyself’ is the most important and durable lesson in leadership.
