Probably should make LinkedIn, but also you shouldn't.

What you'll want to do is upload your resume on indeed and monster. You start getting spammed with calls from recruiters about roles you aren't interested in, and eventually you'll have to move ahead with one you can tolerate for a year (maybe two but hopefully not).

As you know, once you have a role its 500 percent easier to find the next hop. It's ideal to accept a role in the industry you want to be in, but the company and job dont matter as much since you are just grinding XP anyway.

It has been criticizes by "both sides". Things are rarely so simple. The title screen shows that it was funded by the Rockefeller Foundation.

I think the film does a good job of laying out the complexity of the events, and anyone who is starting from 0.0 pieces of information would benefit from watching it. Anyone on hexbear is going to have enough media literacy to continue to develop their understanding from that point, so I feel comfortable suggesting it.

Even if it is a typical liberal, iirc they depict the protestors as singing the Internationale, and it is accurate about the crackdown violence happening outside of the square after most of the protestors had been dispersed. I think the tone is largely sympathetic to the protestors, and frankly I think that's fair (downvotes to the left). Between the liberal leadership of the protest movement and certain attitudes of the online left, it can get lost that there were in fact socialist comrades involved in the protests as well.

Yes but that's a good thing because they provider uses far less fossil fuels to generate the same amount if energy, and that amount of fossil fuel continues to decrease every year without he having to do anything about it.

 

Seems this guy really wanted to "change things from the inside" and resigned when he got disillusioned.

He outlines this in an email to the uploaded at 38:29, apparently made a policy for his department that they can't post "thin blue line" crap on social media and i can only imagine how butthurt the officers got about it. Even in the video he was like "brotherhood? Miss me with that crap pls".
