    Jenn, you have such a gentle, sweet way about you. And I imagine with your focus on growth, you probably have impressive technical credentials as well, even if you can't show us those details in this vlog. The clean, professional style of the vlog hints also hints at that. I wish you great success and happiness.

      You think a video about the boring day of someone with a boring unremarkable job is on “genuinely one of the best channels to watch”!?!? Are you sure?? Without even going into why this is an insane thing to say, just by looking at the language, seeing you include the word “genuinely” tells me all I need to know, you are being anything but genuine. You have an ULTERIOR MOTIVE.
      Did the barest acknowledgment in return make your day?
      Get a grip man.

    I am breaking in the tech career field at 44 and really enjoying these videos. They are informative, entertaining, and give some type of glimpse into this world. I’m even talking with my 17yr old daughter to look into tech as a career and being able to see young successful ladies is encouraging because you have to be a cliché IT person (whatever that is). For everyone that doesn’t like these types of videos please make some videos of your own that you believe would be better or more helpful but until then please be respectful and just don’t watch and leave nasty comments if you don’t like it. I’m sure you could be doing something better with your time.

    • @gaiustacitus4242

      Do not for a moment believe that acting like Ms. Cho is what having a tech career is like. Her lackadaisical attitude is poison in a workplace. It harms the worker and everyone around them. This is the type of behavior that caused Elon Musk to rid Twitter of so many nonproductive workers.

    Turning 60 this year myself but I can relate to the no-growth/stagnation thing - I did the same back in 1999 after a good 14 years at my prior job... I just felt like I wasn't really learning anything new and while that was easier in the late 80s/early 90s (early sparc/Solaris, SGI, Linux days as well as early PCs & networks (10mbit to 100 to 1000 today)), but as the 90s came to a close and eCommerce/internet was taking off i felt the need to branch out more. One of the best things I ever did for my career, and though retired early now I still emphasize to people that in IT if you aren't learning anything you are stagnating - as tech keeps advancing every year.

    Packing 2 luggages just that evening before the next morning flight pretty much tells that you have room to improve in planning & organizing. Try to avoid doing last minute tasks. It’s part of disciplining yourself. The fruit out of this simple task / habit change will surely help you in the future. Believe me.

    Right now im in my 3rd of sportsmanagement and i want to specialize in sportsmarketing. However, i have no idea what the work process in a marketing/advertising agency is like and how projects are being set out.
    How did you first feel when projects were assigned to you? Did you feel a certain pressure? Did you know what work was like at the companies you applied to? Were you certain that you could deliver up to your company’s standards?
