ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I’ll admit that I’m a bit biased on the subject of blogging, obviously. I find it an incredible way to continue learning through the research and writing that I do on my various blogs, and it’s also a great way to share information and attempt to educate folks who happen to come across the sites, no matter how small, or large, the audience is. Well, if you’re curious about how to start a blog using WordPress, they’ve got you covered with a new release this month.

Whether you’re interested in blogging, or using WordPress to design amazing websites, it seems like there’s some cool stuff for anyone, at any level, to learn some WP skills. Check it out, if you’re interested, and if you decide to start a blog, let me know so I can follow you and share your posts the way folks share these for me as well!

    See here’s the thing. Angela was out of town so from the time I left work on Friday at 5 until 9 Saturday morning, when I logged into Skype for the Tech Chat, I hadn’t actually spoken to anyone or tried to form a coherent sentence. I haven’t listened to it yet, but I’m assuming…

  • Linked – The growing CEO pay gap is killing workplace culture

    Workers aren’t ignorant about what their companies do and how their work contributes to the company; they don’t care. Nor should they. Not when the company’s profits can reach astronomical new highs and workers are lucky to get a raise that matches the cost of living increase for that year. Not when we can work our asses off to be successful remotely and continue to make the company all that profit only to be told that we have to come back to the office every day at our own expense. Not when 10% of them got laid off to ensure that the shareholders and CEO’s got theirs. 

    People aren’t detached from the company because it hasn’t explained what they do correctly. They simply don’t give a flying fuck about a company that hasn’t given a flying fuck about them their entire careers.

    The quickest way to cut expenses is to cut staff. This is the way of the world in the 21st Century. Until someone comes along and changes that, it only makes sense to keep your options open. As the article I linked points out, that can mean keeping your knowledge and skills up to date, staying in touch with your network, and possibly looking at side gigs you could hop to if you find yourself in a company that is laying off staff.

    I don’t see anything wrong with that. It’s not disloyal to your employer. That’s not the world we work in any longer.
