@cliffwade Morning sir! I have a few support calls to go to. Hopefully after that it’ll be a chill day. After work it’ll be relaxing and getting ready for my religious convention this weekend.
🆕 blog! “I don't understand the sacrifices people make for work”
Just before I graduated from University, I went to a careers fair to help me decide what I wanted to do with my life. At one of the stalls was our local Police force1 - advertising the exciting new world of digital forensics2. Here is - almost verbatim - the conversation I had with the […]
@Edent Funny, I had a similar conversation with the police too. I'm not sure I'd have fit well with them, though, so maybe it's a good thing.
As you said though, I think the thing that put me off a lot of roles was the idea you'd spend time/money training for a job with only 1 real employer offering jobs, followed by a career subject to the whim of whatever government was in power.
It was one of the most infamous cases of karoshi (working to death) Japan has seen. Learn how the tragic loss of Takahashi Matsuri shook the country, and what changed - and what hasn't - since then.

Just so folks know where we are. 231.68 raised, $2343.32 remaining. Eri's #rent for $1,500 is due in ONE DAY and we've barely made a dent in this ask for rent and #bills. Eri is trying to uplift themselves from their situation by finding #work, which hasn't been going well for them. Let's make sure a #trans#disabled#Black person gets to do that this #PrideMonth. The rest of the #LGBTQ+ community wouldn't be where they are without #queer Black folks. @mutualaid#TransCrowdfund
@mutualaid I'm just gonna put this out there: Eri's ask got a lot of engagement across most platforms, but the metrics for Instagram make no sense. 555 accounts reached, and counting. 30 people engaged with the post, including likes, shares, saves. 4 people gave, totaling 111.13. Imagine it's the 30 ppl who interacted that gave. It would be 3.70 each. Now, if the 555+ ppl who saw that gave that amount, we'd be at 2055.91. Shouldn't those interactions translate to donations?
Let's all comment below with what our day has in store for us today or what we've already gotten done today.
For me, I only have 5 hours left of work for the day with a meeting from 2 - 3pm and then I'm done for an entire week as I'll be heading to Myrtle Beach, SC for vacation with the wife and the family!
Just some video games throughout the day and evening tonight!
Happy Wednesday! Hope it's a great one for ya! The heat is still incredibly high for this time of year, so it'll be a day of indoor activities and naps. Probably mostly naps. Ha! This evening when it's a bit mire tolerable outside, a hike along the riverbank and watch the sunset. 🙌🙏🎉
