I left tech during the pandemic after 20 years - we have an only child and parenting 247 while trying to keep up with insane slack channels and a pandemic was not working for any of us. I was at another tech company for 15 years before which wasn't perfect on how they treated women (trying to convince me to not take more than a month for maternity leave by changing my product line) - but the one in the book was nuts. I'm still figuring out what to do next.

Hang in there.

You too! IDK if I know you in real life, but thanks for the comment :)

I’m sorry! The right fit job for you will come along. (Easy to say, I know, harder to believe right now)

I would finish the memoir but read only in 20-min bursts at another time of day (maybe while eating your lunch?) and choose something fun for before-bed reading.

Thank you! Yes, I need to limit the reading each day to smaller chunks bc it gets me so worked up! I guess that's the mark of a good book. And definitely not before bed.
