  • Not in your industry, but I’ve interviewef many, many…too many people who were looking for entry level positions and although I had the standard hot sheet of corp. questions, what I was looking for was how this person would fit into the team, if they were willing to learn (demonstrated or had examples), and if they had a good personality/traits.

    Do not beat yourself up if you do not get the position, I have turned down people because they were better than what I was offering and knew it would not work out if I hired them then.

    Ask where this position may lead to and what skill sets you’re expected to gain from the experience in an internship role.

    Good luck.


  • This is a good one. Maybe there isn’t a way? Maybe it’s not the right time?

    My wife and I are two people with different interests who just happen like each other and have a family together-we often comment on how if we had met any earlier in our lives we would definitely not like each other.

    For the most part of our marriage I worked alot. But we were always together when we could be.

    Currently this is the most we have been together (last 6yrs of 25) because we now work together in our own place, and the kids have grown and moved out…and we still like each other!

    Love is not a question if you like each other, and you can be two people who are together. You don’t have to have deep meaningful conversations to make a good relationship, my partner is a empathetic, thoughtful and philosophical person and I tend to go for the fart jokes.

    But we get each other. Do you guys get each other then you are together?

    Hopefully this rambling statement makes sense, from a different perspective. I’m tired and am having my first cup of coffee.















  • Well, see now thats the thing…there are plenty of cookbooks out there, but I have my own preference as to which I own.

    I most definitely need to write things down to keep shit organized- in my corporate life I wrote many “books” for each account i opened and updated my own account “book” every year.

    On a daily basis I used a lined paper grid: Top left; shit needed to be done today, Top right, new shit; bottom left, shit to be done but not urgent/this week; and bottom right long term goals/projects This had to be on a clipboard and not a closed binder because: out of sight, out of mind.


  • Absolutely out of my wheelhouse, my computer expertise ends with Excel. However, it’s just a wa6 of doing a given task

    I am not making a private Jellyfin instance for myself, I’m making it as an example for X person to see how it is done, and what they can add to it, like Pro Wrestling memes and puppy training tips.

    Set it up like you are mentoring someone.

    …even me, teach me…I have the slightest idea what jellyfin does because of osmosis of being on the fediverse, but zero practical knowledge, and will have more free time once the high season ends, but I’m willing to check it out and ask questions.
