Toot

Written by Holly Borla on 2024-09-01 at 17:13

I felt a little bit invisible at work this week. Not because of one person or interaction, but a bunch of tiny things that built up, and it was heightened by being the least experienced person in many of the discussions I was in.

The best tool that I have for digging myself out of this feeling is solving technical problems. It’s a concrete way to learn, a tangible accomplishment, and it’s fun. So today I’m going to have some fun with a technical problem that I’m excited about.

@holly I remember some of that, feeling good and knowledgeable and then going to a meeting with people who’ve been working at Apple for fifteen years or something, sometimes on the same project the whole time. But I remember you being dang competent when I left five years ago, so I’m certain you’ve only gotten more worth listening to since.

@holly Yeah, when my brain’s being a jerk, the only thing that helps is concrete data to the contrary.

You’d think my confidence that I’ll be able to FIND that data would be enough to snap me out of the funk, but no.

Have fun kicking ass today 💕

@holly the very concept of a room in which you are the least experienced person is terrifying

@holly I relate to this so much - when I feel down or out of my depth I re-focus with some technical work!

@holly

Having some fun lonely isn't good method, I think.

Humans have learned and grown among other humans, among more people, to reach where they are today.
