Try smaller businesses maybe? Corporate isn’t for everyone.
I got hired for two simple tasks and quickly realized the company (being small) was lacking in a lot of areas I specialize in or am passionate about. I started doing all these extra things and I got a lot of recognition and $$$ in return. I also don’t hate my job, it’s a small team and we all get along great.

Yeah I had a slight leg up I worked as a CNA in the trauma/burn ICU all through college so a lot of practical skills were second nature but yeah we were expected to know a lot of things that weren’t taught in lecture or practicals.

Bless you, I got a useless degree and went back to school in my late 20s to get my RN I did one semester and dropped out because it was so awful.
Nursing instructors eat their own, it was a terrible experience. It wasn’t humbling but humiliating. I stumbled into success in business but I still think about nursing school a lot. One of my realest failures where I straight up tapped out.

I’ve seen some of my neighbors put up signs like that “protect pollinators, don’t use leaf blowers” and their yards are a chaotic mess but honestly who gives a shit lmao.

They like to live in piles of dead leaves. Between suburban neighborhoods having landscapers haul away yard waste and using pesticides to keep those lawns perfect, they have nowhere to live.
If you go to rural areas they’re still around.

Yeah whatever surface it’s on, it’s slightly elevated. It’s a big bird but there’s some optical illusion going on.

She’s rocking it.
I’m a tall guy and when I was single I would joke about that with tall ladies and say if we went out you could wear whatever heels you want. It’s cheesy but 3 for 3.

I’m not a programmer by trade but I learned some python and VBA to automate some of the things I do every day. Any time you’re doing some manual shit and think “there’s gotta be a better way” there probably is - just Google how to do that one thing and you’ll build up your knowledge over time.
It’s up to you to decide if you tell your boss or not. I chose to and took on some extra duties along with extra pay so it worked out for me but it’s a small business with a high value on productivity.

Good God please use xlookup. We have some old school people that still use vlookup and refuse to convert their ranges to tables, it drives me crazy.
I still use index/match for multiple lookup returns (or is it sumifs I can’t remember?) But I do a lot of work in BI and it’s much more intuitive for me in DAX/M.

- Comment on What is your favorite decade for movies? 2 months ago:
I’d say the 80s especially John Hughes type films, B horror movies, back to the future, goonies, princess bride, etc.
There are just so many movies that have feel-good vibes. There are dark ones too but something about the 80s just felt so optimistic to me.

She’s short and has a dancer’s build, she would look so out of proportion. She’s a smoke show as-is.

I just spent my afternoon doing volume calculations… each unit is 3 oz, I need 300 units, 900 oz, but I can only buy in 1 gallon which is 128 oz, etc. For this one, each unit is 10g and 600 of those, I can buy in 1.25 lb or 2.6 lb let’s convert that and see what the cost per gram is and go with the cheaper, okay I can buy in 1180g how much do I need again?
Repeat that 57 times and you too can have a job in supply chain.
