'cause important jokes to crack in person. VC lag totally kills it. Also, disgusting sniffling & coughing. I'm not a good coworker.

Fun fact! This week is the start of Google's internal performance review cycle. If you see more imposter syndrome than usual, that's why.

: in reality I wanted promo, but company didn't "get" what I do (that's changing). Managers knew it. Hoped I'd stay for the work.
