No #weeknotes this week as I have my apprenticeship application to write instead. It’s a determination test as much as anything - can you be bothered to get through the paperwork and track down your GCSE certificates in order to apply 🤣

Does anyone have a workshop format/faciliation technique they like for celebrating success as a team? We’re working on a seriously challenging project, and we want to take the opportunity at our next away day to shout about how far we’ve come from when we started ☺️

Kudos to whoever has just played the last post in central Birmingham. We could hear you clearly even through the double glazed windows. Perfectly in tune 🙌🏻

You receive a call on your phone. The caller says they're from your bank and they're calling about a suspected fraudulent payment. "Oh yeah," you think. Obvious scam, right? The caller says "I'll send you an in-app notification to prove I'm calling from your bank." 🧵 1/4

A vulnerable, messy post today. Because sharing the tough times is as important as sharing the good. #weeknotes @weeknotes-bot.bsky.social crmzchan.medium.com/weeknotes-24...

This week is pressing all my migraine buttons 😖 * Consecutive early starts for travel, so less sleep overall * 2x in-person days with no downtime * One stress-inducing meeting with the inevitable adrenaline crash afterwards * Being away from home = eating less/worse food A perfect storm 😔

Just another manic Monday (well, Tuesday, but it feels like Monday): * welcomed two new starters to the team * briefing with our fab user research team to make sure I’m representing their findings properly and not over generalising * info sesh for an apprenticeship programme I want to start in July

Back at the dentist for the fourth appointment on this damned tooth that suddenly flared up on 2nd Jan 😩 Expensive and painful process, but I do get to see a fancy CAD machine print me a new tooth! Which is kinda cool 🤖 🦷
