  • Had a similar situation happen at one of my old workplaces. Super culty. You’ll survive.

    In addition to what others said (namely, that companies tend not to give “references” anymore, but instead give “verification”, which is where they confirm the dates of employment), if you need references, I recommend getting coworkers who liked you to write a letter of recommendation and send it directly to you for you to include with your job applications.

    You can whip up a “letter of recommendation” template to send to your work friends, then just ask them not to include a date on their letter. I’ve been reusing some old letters of recommendation for years and future employers seem to appreciate that I include them in my app.



  • Great question! Music is important to me, but the sound quality isn’t something I fuss over.

    I think the right music can entrance any situation, so I like exploring a lot of different genres to see if there’s something I like.

    I’m currently trying to build the best Christmas music list (trying to get some of the mainstream stuff mixed in with a bunch of really deep cuts so it’ll keep the list from getting stale through all of December).

    Music is art, and some songs can allow the composer to speak directly to your emotions.
