I’m gonna be mad if this gets more engagement than my post about leaving IBM after 18 years

@jerry I was just remembering a time when I was going to fly out and help write a Redbook on IBM AV (prior to the Norton sale), being an IBM Business partner as a one person consulting shop.

But I ended up closing my failing company and getting a W2 job. About a month later, my dream of working at IBM was shattered when they called to offer me a job, but it paid less than new job so I had to decline! :blobsad:

People don't respect IBM right now; people respect you!

@jerry can’t find the post to cause trouble, saves by LI’s terrible interface

@jerry

we've all dealt with big companies like IBM and many of us have done long stints at one company. congrats on whatever the new gig is.

but i do have to admit, i get vastly more pleasure and entertainment from your pet/beach/pelican/flower pics.

@paul_ipv6 I don’t know what is next yet. I would love to be a full time fedi-admin, but I have bills to pay still.

@jerry @paul_ipv6 If you have a cute voice, you can be the next big YT influencer. At least that's what the ad says.

Put AI on your resume, and you'll be hired tomorrow.

🤔 Should I respond and risk a "mad" reply or should I remain silent?

jerry OP ,
@jerry@infosec.exchange avatar

@Snowshadow have at it! Causing trouble on LI is fun

Snowshadow ,
@Snowshadow@mastodon.social avatar

@jerry
😂 Nope not the "causing trouble kind. Besides,
I think that counts as "engagement" of some sort, right?🤣

Also, I can't read the text on the meme/screenshot because it's too small.(Old eyes😆 )
