🏫 I‘ve learned how to work effectively in a team, and that I really enjoy it.
🏫 I‘m currently a PhD student and teaching assistant.
🏫 In another life, I‘d be a marine archaeologist. I want to be by the ocean and near ships.
Thanks for the tag @Eggs #WondrousWednesday

Eggs Wonderful! Thanks for playing 🥳 4d

Thanks @Eggs for the #WondrousWednesday tag!🤗

1️⃣ The many things I learned from HB, the author of this book & one of my all-time leaders/mentors would take too much space but 3 are 1) Lead with your values & don‘t work for a company if your values don‘t match. 2) Put people over profits—a true leader serves people. 3) Build relationships & “trust banks” first.

2️⃣ Talent Development & Training

3️⃣ Independently wealthy bookstore owner! 😉

UwannaPublishme Yay on all 3…especially #3! 🙌🏻📚🙌🏻 5d
Eggs Well done 👍🏼 #3 sounds great! 5d
Kitta Oh yes a bookstore would be great! 5d
DebinHawaii @UwannaPublishme @Eggs @Kitta I added the independently wealthy so I don‘t have to struggle & can enjoy it & all the books! 😉😆 4d
Eggs @DebinHawaii Of course! 4d

Thanks for tagging me @TheSpineView !

1. Public services should not be run like a business! They support and promote the common good and should not be reduced to profits✌🏻
2. USPS ✉️💨
3. When I was growing up, I desperately wanted to be a librarian! But I would need to need to be some kind of back room archivist. 😅

1. That you have no idea what can be motivating people‘s unpleasant behavior. I‘ve worked with kids whose disruptive, defiant behavior drove me crazy, but when I learned what was going on in their lives, I wondered how they had the energy to even get out of bed in the morning. 😢
2. I‘m a high-school English teacher turned librarian.
3. High-school librarian is my dream job!

2. I have been a professional fundraiser for 20 years - 16 with the American Heart Association and 4 with Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. My job is to manage staff to raise money to fund research, advocacy, patient support, drug therapies, etc: I am really proud that I‘ve raised over 50 million dollars in my career (so far ;))
3. I wanted to be doctor #wondrouswednesday

@Eggs (thanks for the tag! ... you, too, @TheSpineView! 😘💚😘)

1. Even if they don't like you or you don't like them, you still have to work together, so find a way! 😃
2. Retired dog mama. 😍
3. I'm happy with #2! I once wanted to be an astronomer until my first astronomy class where the professor said something like: “If you're here to look at the sky, you came to the wrong class. Physics first, people.“ Me: 🤔😳#dropclass😃

TieDyeDude 3. Ha! But sky so pretty! 5d
dabbe @TieDyeDude Exactly! That's all I wanted to do. Physics? #nothanks 😂 5d
ravenlee I took an astronomy class in college. The Monday class conflicted with a required rehearsal, so I took the Tuesday class. Friend in M class got to go “oh, stars so pretty!” while I had a Romanian professor teaching astrophysics nobody could understand (accent+material). Half the class dropped the first month, another quarter by midterm. I took it pass/fail and had to call my engineer brother every week to tutor me just so I could make a C to pass. 5d

ravenlee And the two courses had the same course number and credit! 5d
TheSpineView 😘🥰😊 5d
dabbe @ravenlee Yowza! You're way stronger than me to have gutted it out. I lasted one class period! 🤩😂😍 5d
ravenlee Thanks, but it was desperation more than dedication. There were very few core courses I could fit into my schedule, and it was too late to find/add something else. 5d
dabbe @ravenlee You're still a trooper IMHO. 😍 5d
Eggs Thanks for joining in 🙌🏻🩷👍🏼 5d
dabbe @Eggs 💚💙💚 5d
Kitta What a way to dissuade people away from a fascinating topic! Even if it contains a lot of physics I‘d want to encourage people to do it not get them to drop the class. But honestly if presented with the topic that way I‘d probably have dropped it too. Not that I took astronomy, I took only biology courses because I was in the UK and the structure of degrees is different there, but still. Boo to that professor. The sky is so pretty! 5d
dabbe @Kitta Your words made my day! This prof was known for his rather crusty demeanor, but still! Now I follow the skies whenever and however I want to. 🪐🪐🪐 5d
