THIS. Fill your life with things that give you joy, that sustain your hope, that remind you who you have chosen to be. Protect your fuel so you can share your fire.

Love and hugs, friends 💙

Get up. Keep going. Protect each other.

tfw someone on your team makes a fabulous comment that you want to share but that you're unwilling to post where it's publicly viewable and/or on any large tech company website

I was able to read a post from you, so that automatically made this time on the clock a good time on the clock

Truly the only good use for some books

I once spotted some homophobic, christofascist books at a used book sale. I bought them to take them out of circulation AND to use the pages to form a papier-mâché Mardi Gras project. I loved knowing how much the authors would hate their book parading down a public street as a rainbow glitter penis.

Relatable 💙💙💙💙💙

Ooh, I like that. Thank you! 💙

My journal is probably in for quite the workout, since working with him was one of the things I was looking forward to about moving back into that role full time. But the best-laid plans 💙💙💙

ainsleyboo @ainsleybee.bsky.social · 1d

Definitely doesn't ease my hesitation about moving back into that role full-time but at least I have a few days to ask him for advice and whatnot (and it's probably not the worst thing to have a reference who I don't work with currently) 💙💙💙

ainsleyboo @ainsleybee.bsky.social · 1d

Exactly what I thought when he told me 🤣😭 gonna be interesting to see how his replacement feels about having to tutor a beginner vs only having a fully trained team 💙

ainsleyboo @ainsleybee.bsky.social · 1d

I was about to say not my favorite turn of events but it could be worse, except I don't even want to suggest that possibility to the universe 💙💙💙

ainsleyboo @ainsleybee.bsky.social · 1d

Not thrilled for me (though happy for boss!) but at least I have a better strategy for dealing with obstacles than I did before 💙

ainsleyboo @ainsleybee.bsky.social · 1d

Good news! Talk with actual boss about this challenge went really well!

And today he gave notice, so it was good practice articulating things but not a ton of help going forward 🙃

💙💙💙💙💙

ainsleyboo @ainsleybee.bsky.social · 1d

YES it really is

ainsleyboo @ainsleybee.bsky.social · 2d

It really, really is 💙💙💙💙💙

ainsleyboo @ainsleybee.bsky.social · 3d

Ooh, intriguing! (And I bought Assassin's Apprentice on sale recently!)

ainsleyboo @ainsleybee.bsky.social · 4d

Oh, no! I hope you find something MUCH better soon AND get some form of back pay or compensation for the whole illegal RIF thing 💙💙💙💙💙

ainsleyboo @ainsleybee.bsky.social · 4d

Enjoy!!!!!

ainsleyboo @ainsleybee.bsky.social · 4d

Sending good thoughts to you both! 💙💙💙

ainsleyboo @ainsleybee.bsky.social · 5d

Thank you! It's going to be a fun project, once I figure out where the hours it needs will come from 🤣
