2024.05.21 15:53 Greeistaken uOttawa Software Engineering is one of the best programs in Canada
First and foremost, I'd like to preface this post by mentioning the fact that I am biased considering that I'll be attending uOttawa Software Engineering this fall.
Competitiveness: Now, for starters, uOttawa SE has been getting more and competitive for years now. This year, it's reached a
cutoff average of 97% for Ontario students, a little wild to think about. Now, let me explain why this is significant: A cutoff average of 97% means that the uOttawa admissions team was able to fill the 167 person Software Engineering cohort with people that have an average of 97%+. That being said, a program has to be strong to attract this many qualified students.
CO-OP: One of the biggest factors for why uOttawa Software Engineering has gotten so competitive is their very strong CO-OP program. Software Engineering specifically is the
only program in Canada, other than Waterloo's, to have CO-OP after the 1st year of study. Why is this significant? Well because you will be a much more attractive candidate to CO-OPs in your second year considering that you've already completed 4 months of related work experience. It's also very likely that you'll be able to land a CO-OP after first year considering that modern engineering in the summer of 2023 boasted an
80% placement rate compared to waterloo's
40% (in some programs). Now although we all know how good waterloo's CO-OP is in employer quality, you can't deny the
uOttawa's CO-OP's stability. Btw, these statistics are all after the tech market's downturn, uOttawa and Waterloo both previously had a
97% CO-OP placement rate. Additionally, uOttawa's CO-OP has very strong connections in the
Kanata Tech hub, the biggest tech park in Canada, with plentiful employers such as
Amazon, IBM, Ford, Ericsson, Blackberry, Blackberry QNX, Cisco, Huawei, Morgan Stanley, Nokia, RBC, and many more, recruiting from uOttawa's CO-OP. uOttawa also boasts the
highest paid CO-OP (on average) in Canada after only Waterloo.
Ressources: uOttawa has recently seen an upturn in the amount of ressources it provides for it's SE/CS students, they've recently collaborated with
IBM to bring the
uOttawa IBM Cyber Range to the school. This is all solidifying it's industry relations and making them a strong candidate for future relationships. uOttawa also runs
two major hackathons: uOttaHack and Hack the Hill. These hackathons are the biggest in the city, and they're sponsored by
Amazon, Google, Adobe, Microsoft and other companies with local offices in Kanata such as IBM, Blackberry, Ford, etc... There is also the
Software Engineering Students Association (SESA) that organizes a multitude of software engineering related events. All of these ressources, along with uOttawa's CO-OP make
SE/CS graduates some of the most employable in Canada.
To conclude, uOttawa's outlook in the field is looking very good, and I'd strongly recommend you to consider the program if you're debating it. For future applicants, I really hope these minimum averages stabilize or something because I genuinely don't understand how ya'll are gonna be able to get in. Good luck to you all, and thanks for reading.

2024.05.21 15:51 terryleewhite What's New in the May 2024 Lightroom Release?
| Hi everyone, Terry White from Adobe here, and I'm happy to share the news about today's Adobe Photography Release (May 2024). There are updates across the Lightroom Ecosystem to include Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, Lightroom on Mobile, and Lightroom on Web. Today, we are introducing a groundbreaking feature in Lightroom-Generative Remove, powered by Firefly. This innovative tool allows you to effortlessly eliminate distractions from your photos with a single brush stroke, all without the need to switch to Photoshop. We've also improved Lens Blur (which was in Early Access), making it easier than ever to control the depth of field in your photos with professional results. Easily remove distractions with Generative Remove (early access) Available on Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, Lightroom for mobile (iOS & Android), Lightroom for web, and Adobe Camera Raw https://i.redd.it/axpim9fmas1d1.gif With Generative Remove, powered by Firefly, you can easily remove unwanted objects and distractions, even on complex backgrounds, in just a few simple steps. Distractions can ruin an otherwise great photo. Generative Remove allows you to quickly remove them with realistic, high-quality results. Generative Remove uses Firefly technology to intelligently fill the photo behind removed items. The results on complex backgrounds are particularly impressive, like matching a detailed wallpaper pattern or the fabric on a plaid shirt. Lightroom will even give you a few variations to choose from so you'll have full creative control in picking the one you like best. \Note that the previous "Heal" tool is now called "Remove." You'll find Generative Remove within the Remove tool, accessible via a toggle on Lightroom mobile or a check box on Lightroom for web, Lightroom Classic, and Lightroom.* Generative Remove is powered by Firefly Image 1 Model and is available today as an early access feature to Lightroom paid plan subscribers across the Lightroom ecosystem via mobile, desktop, iPad, web and Classic. Get a pro-quality background blur with AI-powered Lens Blur Available on Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, Lightroom for mobile (iOS & Android), Lightroom for web, and Adobe Camera Raw https://i.redd.it/h43ibvxnas1d1.gif Our improved Lens Blur uses the power of AI to map the foreground and background of your image to apply a pro-quality blur effect. Blur busy backgrounds to make your portraits pop, add a dramatic blur to nature photos to make the greenery stand out, or get a dreamy, blurred background from a sparkling city skyline at night. With the interactive and flexible controls of Lens Blur, you can play around with the blur amount, change the shape of the light points or "bokeh," and customize the area you want to blur using the focus range tool. This new release of Lens Blur includes better subject detection, the ability to create custom presets, and batch editing capabilities. Please note that the latter two features are coming soon to Android devices. Get the perfect blur effect in a click with new Lens Blur Adaptive Presets Available on Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, Lightroom for mobile (iOS & Android), Lightroom for web, and Adobe Camera Raw Today, we also introduce a set of brand-new adaptive presets for Lens Blur that use AI technology to apply a blur effect that's tailor-made to your photo. Presets are great for quickly finding the perfect blur look without having to dig into fine-tuned edits. You can choose from seven Blur Background adaptive presets that change the shape and style of the blur in the background: Subtle, Strong, Circle, Bubble, Geometric, Ring, or Swirl. After you pick a preset, you can adjust the strength of the blur with the amount slider or customize the effect further by using the Lens Blur tool controls. What else is new in the latest Lightroom release We've also made several updates across the Lightroom ecosystem that give you more creative control and flexibility when working on your photos and videos. Enjoy Sony tethering support Available in Lightroom Classic on the latest Sony digital cameras such as the Alpha 7 IV and Alpha 7R V – for a full list see here. See your images on a big screen as soon as you click the camera shutter. We're expanding support for tethering by adding the latest Sony digital cameras so you can photograph directly into Lightroom Classic, saving precious time on your workflow. It's now even easier to review photo details, edit in real-time, and collaborate with on-set production teams and clients. For a full list of all newly supported cameras in Lightroom see this page. Easily move cloud files to your local drive Available on Lightroom At last year's Adobe MAX conference, we introduced local storage for Lightroom — the option to work with your photos and videos in Lightroom without having to import or sync them to the cloud. With this release, it's now easier to move or archive your photos off the Lightroom Cloud and store them on your computer's internal drive, an external drive, or a local server. This is great when you want to free up space on the cloud, or for file management such as archiving past projects to a local drive. You can select multiple files within an album, or an entire album to move to your local drive. Lightroom will ask what folder structure you'd like to use, so you can preserve the album structure locally as you move it off the cloud. This is especially useful if you have a high volume of photos and are working with numerous files at a time. Edit videos with the Tone Curve Available on Lightroom You can now edit videos in Lightroom using Tone Curve. This graph-based tool enables you to fine-tune a video's brightness and contrast by simply dragging the curve control points up or down. For example, if a point on the tone curve is moved up, it becomes a lighter tone; if it is moved down, it becomes darker. Create and play slideshows in Lightroom Available on Lightroom Lightroom now has a slideshow feature so you can display selected photos from your library in a slideshow format — a great way to share edits with clients, family, or friends. Performance, reliability, and workflow enhancements to Lightroom Classic We've also made the following improvements to Lightroom Classic, so that it performs smoothly and enables you to work more efficiently: - Improved cloud syncing: Images in your Lightroom Cloud will now more reliably match what you see in your Classic catalog and vice versa
- Smoother image navigation in Develop: We've improved the responsiveness and navigation experience in Develop along with better caching
- Optimized preview management: We have re-architected the way we generate and store previews, resulting in a much smoother experience
- Filter by exported images: You can now filter for files by their export status and create a smart collection showing what's been exported
- Search support for new metadata: We've introduced new capabilities to search and create smart collections by alt text, extended descriptions, and images edited with Remove or Point Color
Watch a Demo I created a video showing off these features that you can watch here: https://youtu.be/0VP7vhIfdYE We are also LIVE on Adobe Live starting at 9AM PT/12 Noon ET here: https://www.behance.net/live/videos/23345/From-Ordinary-to-Extraordinary-Live-Lightroom-Editing-with-Professional-Photographers Try out the new features from today. You can download the latest features and enhancements today on Lightroom for mobile from the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and Samsung Galaxy Store. Try the Lightroom app for free by going to the app store on your mobile phone. Lightroom for web features are available at lightroom.adobe.com and no download is required. Lightroom for desktop can be downloaded via the Creative Cloud Desktop app. To learn more about these updates, check out the What's New pages for Lightroom and Lightroom Classic. Disclaimer: Generative Remove in Lightroom is available to all Creative Cloud members with a subscription or trial that includes Lightroom. Generative Remove is not available in China. Our commitment to AI ethics and principles Adobe is committed to developing AI in accordance with the company's AI Ethics principles of accountability, responsibility, and transparency. As AI becomes more prevalent in content creation, Adobe believes that it is important to provide consumers with transparency about its use in the creative process. A recent study from Adobe showed that 76% of U.S. consumers emphasized the importance of knowing if online content is generated using AI. When Generative Remove becomes generally available, Content Credentials will be automatically attached to photos edited with the feature in Lightroom. Like a "nutrition label" for digital content, Content Credentials are tamper-evident metadata that can provide important information about how content was created, modified and published. Content Credentials are built on the C2PA open standard and supported by the Adobe-led Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI), which was founded in 2019 to increase trust in the digital ecosystem. Today, the CAI has grown into a global coalition of over 3,000 members across tech, policy, media companies, creative professionals, researchers and more, all working together to add transparency to digital content. As always, let us know if you have any questions in the comments. Cheers! Happy Lightroom Day. submitted by terryleewhite to Lightroom [link] [comments] |

2024.05.21 15:39 TheLostMaverick Building a PC for my wife who has had her gaming awakening! - Help greatly appreciated! [UK][MicroATX][~£1k]
Hello all, as it says in the title I'm looking to build my wife a PC. She has recently opened her eyes to the wonders of PC gaming. She's always been a console player (Was terrified of mouse and keyboard) but after playing Hogwarts Legacy on PS4 she thought she would like to try Baldurs Gate 3 which I had on PC. Safe to say she enjoyed that and now has a backlog of games she wants to play which is longer than my arm. This is great but we only have one PC and no laptop which means that if she's on my PC I can't use it and vice versa. This, in her own words, has become; "
An untenable situation.". We don't own a laptop and we're not too keen on going down that particular route.
Onto the topic of the build! We know we would like the build to be a MicroATX as the space that the PC will be going isn't really suitable for a Mid or Full tower. We'd like the PC to be able to comfortably run games like Hogwarts Legacy, BG3 but also have a some scope to play upcoming games at 1080p. Not as interested in building a fully futureproof 1440p beast that will break the bank.
It's been a while since the height of my PC building era and having come back into it, in a formfactor I'm not used to, after a several year hiatus, I feel overwhelmed. I've tried wading through the quagmire of forums, reviews, tech YouTube channels and opinions and I've arguable come out in worse shape than I went in with. So with all that being said, I'd really appreciate if those of you who were willing and able would cast your savvy peepers on the below list and give it some constructive criticism. Feel free to ask any questions!
I'm trying to keep the build in the ~£1,000 range, ideally below as we do have some peripherals to buy.
TL:DR: I need help building a MicroATX PC, I've got the draft list below and would appreciate constructive criticism. I have an old PSU but don't know if it's of any use for this build:
PCPartPicker Part List:
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/HKrmTY CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 3.7 GHz 6-Core Processor (Stock Cooler) (£121.32 @ NeoComputers)
Motherboard: MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard (£104.99 @ Amazon UK)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL18 Memory (£38.99 @ Amazon UK)
Storage: Crucial P3 Plus 1 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive (£69.99 @ Ebuyer)
Video Card: Asus DUAL OC Radeon RX 7600 XT 16 GB Video Card (£333.53 @ NeoComputers)
Case: Cooler Master Q300L V2 MicroATX Mini Tower Case (£53.97 @ Amazon UK)
PSU:
TBC (
I have an old Corsair RM650W Fully Modular 80+ Gold, from 2015, too old to reuse?)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11 Home OEM - DVD 64-bit (£108.98 @ Overclockers.co.uk)
Total: £831.77

2024.05.21 15:06 Amicron1 How to Find and Replace VBA Code in Microsoft Access
2024.05.21 15:06 grewupinwpg Crashes and freezing - Windows 11 / RTX 3060 TI - variety of errors 🤔
I've been experiencing system crashes, freezes and loads of critical/warnings in the event log viewer I've been trying to sort through the last few days without much success. I'm going to try to summarize things as much as I can, and include any data I have while I'm not at the machine (I'm on the way to work at the moment).
Any help or guidance on other things to try is appreciated. I want to avoid bringing it in to the shop for service if possible!
Below is a summary of what I've tried so far with as much detail as I can:
May 18th - First series of crashes identified 'GameInputSvc.exe' as a source of trouble in the event log. When I googled the errors, it led me to this thread (
https://www.reddit.com/WindowsHelp/comments/18bb6e0/gameinput_service_stops_working_after_windows_11/) and uninstalled Game Input app from the Windows Apps list, as it showed it was from 2023. I no longer saw this in the task manager after a reboot.
May 19th - more crashes while playing Fallout 4 or just booting up. Looked at the event log and it showed the WiFi driver was crashing. When I googled it, some threads mentioned the Intel Driver and Support software as a possible source. I uninstalled that software. Installed the WiFi driver from my PC manufacturers website (MSI).
Some examples of errors: "Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered." "Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX200 160MHz : Has encountered an internal error and has failed." "5007 - TX/CMD timeout (TfdQueue hanged)"
This one was prominent especially the next day (May 20th):
"The description for Event ID 0 from source nvlddmkm cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
The following information was included with the event:
\Device\Video3 Error occurred on GPUID: 100"
This clearly indicates an issue with the video card drivers. I reverted to the older version of video drivers for my RTX 3060 TI. I was able to play games and use the PC without issue for a while. Then it began to crash again. Back into the event viewer.
Found these posts:
https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/discove54045/the-nvlddmkm-error-what-is-it-an-fyi-for-those-seeing-this-issue/ And this one which I've highlighted what I think is the relevant part below:
https://www.reddit.com/nvidia/comments/1cnxgy8/game_ready_driver_55244_faqdiscussion/ "If it still crashes, we have a few other troubleshooting steps but this is fairly involved and you should not do it if you do not feel comfortable. Proceed below at your own risk:
- A lot of driver crashing is caused by Windows TDR issue. There is a huge post on GeForce forum about this here. This post dated back to 2009 (Thanks Microsoft) and it can affect both Nvidia and AMD cards.
- Unfortunately this issue can be caused by many different things so it’s difficult to pin down. However, editing the windows registry might solve the problem.
- Additionally, there is also a tool made by Wagnard (maker of DDU) that can be used to change this TDR value. Download here. Note that I have not personally tested this tool."
I added the registry key as suggested to change the time the system waits for the video card drivers to recover from 2 seconds to 10 seconds. My next step was to use DDU to uninstall the video drivers, and reinstall the latest 552.44 driver. I then did a sfc /scannow to try to ensure the integrity of system files. If did find an issue and resolved it (screenshot:
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/464920915088769029/1242264474249990205/image.png?ex=664ddd32&is=664c8bb2&hm=b17d2b36d2f24f132798d61a5cd172566ebd7fa99fe656177af5c954541d0648&).
However I left my machine on after playing Fallout 4 fine for a few hours and it crashed about 6 min after I left it to go to bed (according to event log).
I can provide a link to my reliability report XML if that helps. I'll also try to save the event log later today.
I'm at the point of reinstalling Windows tonight as a final step before I take the box in to my local PC shop, which will take a week or 2 to fix. I'd really like to avoid that cost if I can.
Please let me know if there is anything I can run or provide once I'm back home from work. Thanks again for reading and any help.

2024.05.21 14:58 FarragutCircle Reading The Big Book of Cyberpunk, Week 17
Welcome to
Reading The Big Book of Cyberpunk!
Each week we (
u/FarragutCircle and
u/fanny_bertram) will be reading 5-ish stories from Jared Shurin’s
The Big Book of Cyberpunk, which includes a curated selection of cyberpunk stories written from 1950 to 2022! We’ll include synopses of the stories along with links to any legally available online versions we can find. Feel free to read along with us or just stop by and hear our thoughts about some cyberpunk stories to decide if any of them sound interesting to you.
Every once in a while, we reach out to people who have more insight, due to being fans of the author or have some additional context for the story. (Or we just tricked them into it.) So please welcome
u/RuinEleint who will be sharing their thoughts on "The Yuletide Cyberpunk Yarn, or Christmas_Eve-117.DIR" by Victor Pelevin!
“Deep Eddy” by Bruce Sterling (published 1993; also available in his collection
Ascendancies: The Best of Bruce Sterling)
Deep Eddy is acting as a data courier to the Cultural Critic in Düsseldorf, right as the city goes through a Wende (a sort of anarchist “
Purge”).
- Farragut’s thoughts: We’ve read Sterling before in Science Fiction. Eddy is a misguided libertarian creep who won’t stop hitting on his German bodyguard and is too dumb to understand the philosophical points that the Cultural Critic is making (for that matter, I’m too dumb to understand, too). He survives his time in Germany, but has learned nothing of value for his punk attitude. What’s the point of rebelling if you don’t understand why? The naivete and creepiness were a little too much for me.
- fanny’s thoughts: This did not work for me. Eddy is creepy and annoying. He keeps hitting on the bodyguard and she makes it VERY clear she is only there in a professional context. Eddy also seems to generally not have any clue what he is doing. He is libertarian and against something but no one seems to know what. He doesn't even seem to know what he delivered to the Cultural Critic.
“The Yuletide Cyberpunk Yarn, or Christmas_Eve-117.DIR” by Victor Pelevin (1996, translated from Russian by Alex Shvartsman)
A corrupt mayor’s computer is infected by a virus that causes chaos in Russia.
- Special Guest Ruin: This was a fascinating story to read. The way the narrative segued from a discussion on poetry to a darkly comedic look at a Russian city was remarkable. The author seems to like to start or lead with a theme or themes which seem to be only tangentially related to each other such as for example the name of the computer virus, or Gerasimov and his dog. But both elements circle back into the story and are crucial to its structure. As for the content of the story itself, I amused myself by imagining the events as being a movie that blended the stylistic elements of Tarantino and Wes Anderson. So we have brutal, bloody violence in increasingly absurd settings and the way it is all described makes it easy to imagine it all taking place amidst the highly stylized sets and characters we would expect in a Wes Anderson movie. Overall, I really enjoyed this story.
- Farragut: We’ve read Pelevin before in Modern Fantasy. First of all, this is a fantastic title for a story, period. Second of all, I just enjoyed Pelevin’s style here (via Shvartsman’s translation), with an omniscient narrator telling us about a completely ridiculous situation. It gets a little cagey with the identity of the perpetrator and the ending, but I’m very curious as to how darkly I should read it (now that I think about it, it’s directly connected to the original, so I should read it very darkly indeed). Shvartsman’s occasional footnotes were very helpful, however, especially with the context surrounding Gerasim(ov) and Mumu.
- fanny: Ruin's review is so good, I am not sure what to add. The style of this story fit the elements so well. It starts with a poem whose themes carry through the story. The footnotes were a really great addition and helped contextualize. The narrator keeps upping the ridiculousness until we get to the end and everything gets wrapped up.
“Wonderama” by Bef (1998, translated from Spanish by the author)
Lalo (or is it Eduardo?) wakes up every day in the most awesome life in 1974, but it’s revealed to be a lie and ends tragically.
- Farragut: Bef is a Mexican SF writer, a crime writer, and a graphic novelist, and honestly his whole bibliography sounds cool as heck. Told in a series of diary entries with some small interruptions, we follow a kid whose life is like a Mexican kid’s sugar-fueled dream. The reason for its inclusion in this thematic section of the anthology becomes clear however, and I yelled, “Noooo!” at the ending. Sigh. It’s very good!
- fanny: I am a sucker for diary entry style stories and this was no exception. Lalo’s life seems almost perfect, but it feels so off. The story feels progressively more off until we start to question everything. Also, yelled “Nooo!” at the ending. Very good. Absolutely loved.
“comp.basilisk FAQ” by David Langford (1999) (
link to story)
A FAQ-style story that clearly describes a bizarre future where images on the web and TV are banned due to the risk of death.
- Farragut: Langford is famous for having the most Hugo wins (29), mostly for the Fan Writer category, but also Short Story (not this one) and Best Related Work (not this one either). This is a delightful story that made me think of it as a precursor to qntm’s later story “Lena” from Week 5 (though obviously only in general form). Apparently I love the faux-nonfiction style where some of the horror and plot is between the lines. The final FAQ about Microsoft was darkly funny.
- fanny: This was fun and very short. The FAQs related to basilisk and writing were great. It goes between funny, dark humor, and just dark. I liked the commentary on technology and software. I also really appreciate the standard response answers explaining they should post someone else. This is something I deal with often and this was great.
“Spider's Nest” by Myra Çakan (2004, translated from German by Jim Young; also available in the anthology
The Apex Book of World SF 3 edited by Lavie Tidhar)
Spider, uh, does something? Is looking for drugs, maybe? But something else happens instead?
- Farragut: Çakan is a German writer from Hamburg, and after reading this story, I’d say Shurin made hamburger out of me, too. The main thing I got out of this story was that Spider really wanted something, maybe. I thought it was drugs, but he got angry at his dealer and then got super weird with his friend’s girlfriend? And then there was a Silver Spider, who wasn’t him, but maybe he plugged himself in to replace her? What is happening?
- fanny: Spider definitely wanted drugs from his dealer, Ant. I think. Ant got annoyed at something then Spider got into a voyeur situation (maybe). There is a Silver Spider in his dreams that makes him feel better. I couldn't tell if this was dream or drug induced or technology induced. The end is super weird and makes even less sense than the story. Spider might have done a murder on himself? I have been confused before in this anthology, but not to this level.
That’s it for this week! Check back the same time next week where we’ll be reading and discussing "The Last American" by John Kessel, "Earth Hour" by Ken MacLeod, "Violation of the TrueNet Security Act" by Taiyo Fujii, "Twelve Minutes to Vinh Quang" by T. R. Napper, and "Operation Daniel" by Khalid Kaki.

2024.05.21 14:51 NicoleRichie666 How did you find your next job after being fired in retaliation?
Hi guys
I was wondering if anyone who has been fired for reporting something discrimination-related has any advice on finding their next job?
For context, I was working in a marketing-related role in the video game industry, and was fired a few months ago when I raised concerns about pay inequity and harassment. Like I was literally sent home within a few hours, forced to take 1 week involuntary leave, immediately had network access revoked, and was fired at the end of that week. I know that marketing isn’t a “tech” role (and I’m not claiming to be a “woman in tech”) but I really need guidance on how you find another job after this. These are the main things I’m struggling with:
- Who do you guys list as references when job searching? I don’t think I can use anyone from this company as a reference, but not giving a reference will look suspicious.
- What do you say in interviews if they ask why you left your previous company?
- How do you account for the lack of career progression that goes with being a woman in a male-dominated space? I feel really behind in my career from doing work way above my pay grade while being refused actual recognition or visible career progression. I was never promoted (while the men around me were) and I’m anxious competing for jobs against people who had normal career opportunities. Maybe my question is, is there a way I can handle this without taking a job that is way below my skill/experience level?
- Does anyone have advice for coming across as competent when you are so used to being undermined, micromanaged, refused opportunities etc? My psychologist said that I have internalised this experience as my personal failure, and that I need to internalise a different narrative. I understand this in theory, but it’s really hard in practice. I feel like one of those dogs that was abused by its previous owner and now acts skittish around men and gets scared during thunderstorms*. Like I feel like I can’t go to a normal workplace because I might “give it away” somehow, and people will think I’m weird and damaged. At my previous company, I wasn’t allowed into the office without a designated male chaperone, and I wasn’t allowed to make basic decisions by myself (every tiny detail had to be approved by a male coworker). I know these things aren’t normal, but I'm so used to having to be deferential that I don't know what is normal.
- I'm currently thinking I'll do a postgrad degree so that I have something on my CV that is more recent than this job. Has anyone done this (either after being fired, or in general), and did it help?
Thank you all for reading, I really appreciate any and all guidance. Also thank you for your time :)
*I've never owned a dog, maybe all dogs are scared of thunderstorms. I hope this metaphor makes sense.
