I accidentally became the CISO. I didn't want this job, but the job chose me. I'm scared, and I want to go home.

Be compassionate when your users get phished. If it can happen to the Director of the FBI, it can happen to anyone.

@joelpomales Indeed!

He performed a track from the album on Fallon the other night. I'm looking forward to hearing the rest of it! You can definitely hear the Miles Davis influence.

@Rajiv I know chairs are expensive, but seriously... do they have to be THIS expensive? 🤣 😭

@Rajiv Also, shape of the back of the chair worked well when reclined back slightly in meetings, but doesn't provide the right support when sitting forward for focus work.

@Rajiv The gaming chair worked great for me when my job was primarily meetings, and I was sitting in a slightly reclined position and using my mouse/keyboard less. Now that I'm doing more focus work, I'm finding that that the chair prevents my elbows from going back far enough to be ergonomically correct when sitting in a more upright and active position.

My kids have stolen my gaming chair from my office. I need to buy myself a new desk chair. Not gaming this time. Thinking about a Leap. What else should I be considering?

Last week, I met with a marketing freelancer to put together a strategic marketing plan for my company.

This morning, me to freelancer: “Heeeeeyyyy, so, I had an idea. It might change the plan a wee bit.” 😬

OMG, I have become my bosses. 🤣😭🤦‍♂️

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but executives aren’t going to read more than 3 sentences of that email you’re writing. Get to the point.

I'll need some audience volunteers to test the live caller workflow. If anyone is interested in helping me do some testing this week, let me know.
