The closest I ever got to this story was working help desk in 1996. A user called up saying they had deleted the Internet.
Took me a while to understand he dragged “the Internet” to the recycle bin on the desktop.

Bring that to your department chair and ask if they can help sponsor the trip. It’s a big deal and something the department would be proud of.
Getting the right keyboard height was almost impossible. That keyboard tray was about 6 months of knee bumps away from death!
Motorized desks really improved things for me.

If really interested, the local NPR station did a long origin story of the Alabama Prison System.
There was one prison until slavery ended.
Glad you got diagnosed. There’s a ton of bad management in startups. Especially stay away from managers that grew up in toxic shops.
I’ve always been a strong employee. People get good at pushing buttons. Spent more time in a divorce therapy talking about a manager than the personal issues.
Realized for every boundary problem I had, there were n alienated people on my team that really got hurt hard. Sr. Management fixed the issue
Be good at taking breaks. Be good at looking for new roles before you need them.
Often; the money side that seems big to employees is new house rich. If you aren’t happy, it’s not worth it.

Agree here.
Spend your time making sure you are protected against ransomware with good offline backups and able to recover your practice. Keep your payments separate from your comms machine.
Your job is going to have lots of shady things to click on/invoice/etc
Plan for it so a malicious client/infected evidence/mistaken click doesn’t take down your practice.
I’m 25y into this as a technologist and still make mistakes on “oh this will be quick”. Make sure your time sinks are 100% aligned with your business. Think of automation / value and you’ll have the right mindset.
If you find the tech side fascinating, there’s always demand for good tech lawyers and lawyer comms are entryways into technology management.
You Have a Right to Know Why a Health Insurer Denied Your Claim. Some Insurers Still Won’t Tell You.
This process is such a nightmare.
N letters back and forth then a bill stage where you realize something wasn’t paid for. Then an hour long phone call to start an appeal process asking for more documentation about a test ordered 5 months ago. The denials are handwaves.
Insurance in general is such a nightmare. I’m in the fortunate bucket where I’m well paid and have a decent plan. One kid with chronic conditions. Then the pain of every year being forced to figure out the different game.
One of my favorite albums. Saw her about a year ago in concert and she puts on a fun show.
Elevator Operator is always fun time
Since you built one, you can probably answer the ergonomics question I’ve always had. It’s been years since I did fighting games.
