@Una Being paired with a buddy you could ask stupid questions to. Also company sponsored lunch with your new coworkers to get to know them. Also every new hire presents a working with me at the weekly company all hands where they get to talk about themselves and how they like to work
@anthonydpaul @mims When we started having toddlers and we didn’t want to worry about tripping down the stairs to chase them

@yongfook Dynamic image generators are always a hit like dummyimage.com/
@fugularity No you haven’t. Don’t give up. I expect 12.6% YoY growth in improvement by Q3 otherwise the rest of the shareholders will run you right out of the executive suite!!!
@danmall You should listen to old SXSW talks from 2006. Those were the days…
@askwpgirl @timo__tech I didn’t particularly like my website when I launched it and swore I would take the time to redo it. Still hasn’t happened.

@swiftdancoder @timo__tech Instead of taking time to work on my personal site I took on freelance projects to help my clients with their sites. They had more interesting problems. Then word of mouth led to more projects. Nobody has ever asked to see my portfolio.
@timo__tech Nobody cares about your homepage if you have experience and expertise to back up what you say you know. Companies have been looking for people who have already solved the problems they have.
@timo__tech russellheimlich.com/ hasn’t been updated since 2006 when I launched it. Hasn’t been a problem in my career.
