so I got laid off again, for stupid AI-pilled reasons.

Anybody need a writer or editor with:
- 8+ years of technical writer/content strategist experience, mostly in software
- One published short fiction anthology (as editor)
- A master's degree in sociolinguistics
- A knack for learning new content management systems
- A love of working with invested SMEs
- A basic understanding of web dev
- Strong boundaries
- An aversion to generative AI?

Prioritizing remote work in Canada.

@WizardOfDocs *ohno* :( **virtual hugs offered**
@brooke I'll always take a hug πŸ«‚

@WizardOfDocs cant help (wish i could)

that is all fuckery and bullshit and i wish better for you

@WizardOfDocs Ooof, sorry to hear that. Good luck going forward!
@WizardOfDocs Oh no, this on top of moving? Sympathies.

@WizardOfDocs I guess you were deemed to be not a "team player" by having values or your job was considered to be automated away by "AI" and you were dumped into the "left-behind" dumpster?

Could that your experience be?

@WizardOfDocs oh ffs, that's so ridiculous πŸ’œ
@WizardOfDocs Try following @gMoon. They post lists of jobs in Canada that they come across, many of which are remote.

@adw99 appreciate the mention Aron.

@WizardOfDocs while I don't often post writing or editing jobs, you're always welcome to either follow me, follow one of the hashtags I use (you can see which I use by looking at one of my posts such as https://aus.social/@gMoon/116281024747109082), or follow me via RSS. I'm pretty sure I've seen a number of jobs you may be looking for over on hiring.cafe (usually by searching for WordPress).

@WizardOfDocs Oh no! That really sucks. Hopefully a better opportunity comes along soon.
@WizardOfDocs Oh dear. :/ I hope you find something suitable and better.

@WizardOfDocs This was just posted today and might be a lead for you, even if temporary:

@WizardOfDocs for some reason my employer recommends using generative AI to prepare quarterly performance reviews ... I know they are using AI to summarize them so yeah

"High Priest, these rituals seem tedious and pointless."
"Indeed they are. That's why we made a machine to do them for us."
"You know we could just...stop doing them, right?"
"And embarrass ourselves before God and man? What a childish thought. Now go back to tending the devotion machine."
