Hard to believe, but I just posted *4* open positions at @tuple:
* Head of Sales
* Product Designer
* Head of Marketing
* Support Engineer
(All full-time and remote.)
Hiring these folks is my #1 priority, and I'd love to be introed to anyone you think would be great.
Thanks!
I have never seen the concept of “serendipitous impact” articulated quite this way before, but it puts words to something that I have appreciated most about some of the best engineers I’ve worked with. staffeng.com/stories/aaron-s…
“Serendipitous impact isn't planned; and isn't necessarily hard work. It's about paying attention (being present), keeping a curious mindset, and sharing the insight in a way that colleagues are open to receiving.” — @ktheory

2/ Bad leaders treat people as expendable for their own goals.
Good leaders build people on their team up, help them develop deeper skills, and empower them to get to the next place they need to go.
Nothing like the sound of all those recurring meetings falling off your calendar ahead of a long break. 🎄

I don’t know who needs to hear it right now, but you are enough. While you may not feel strong, you have been weathering a terrible storm. That is powerful. Keep going.

Have you considered sending positive feedback to one of your colleagues and cc’ing their manager?
With performance review season coming up, this might be a helpful way for their manager to understand how this person is contributing to the overall success of the team.
Thoughts?

Thank you @TaylorSwift13 and my friend @EricSwalwell for showing young people what's at stake in this election.
Up there's the finish line.
Our future is worth our fight.
Thank you, @taylorswift13, for voicing what #OnlyTheYoung can do. Let’s run!
I am *so excited* about the future of this team!! 🤩
Excited to partner with @suzannexie, @kurrik, @jgkite and others in growing the Invoices product both in the US and abroad 🚀

Cyclists:
Retweet if you got hit by a car.
Like if drivers threatened to kill you.
I really appreciated reading the notes @r00k took from the Remote Coffee Chat earlier today. Thanks to all who took time out of their day to attend and to the other panelists for an engaging conversation on one of my favorite topics!
I'm attending @stripe's Remote Coffee Chat (a discussion of their remote engineering hub and culture) and finding it rather useful.
RSVPs are closed for this one, but I'll share some notes in this thread.

Excited to talk to people from around the world today about remote engineering at @Stripe, what it was like being the site lead for the Remote Hub over the past year, how remote work has evolved for us through 2020, and more!
Next Wednesday I’ll be joining @patio11 @chimeracoder and @dps for a Remote Coffee Chat. We’ll chat about the evolution of @stripe’s remote engineering culture, how 2020 has shaped the future of our virtual hub, and [your topic here]. Join us! stripe.events/remotecoffeech…
