All the ladies got laid off. Its work...not a resort. You are expected to produce. Nit make content trying to show how good your work life is. The perks are there to keep you at work.. WORKING.. .not 3rd breakfast and 4pm departure.

I’m currently going to DeVry University for engineering technology, I wanted to do biomedical engineering but now i kind of want to do software any tips or advice do you have?

[@JT-tx2ns]

I would make sure the program is legit. DeVry was one of those scam schools growing up

[@deesclouds]

Thank you so much for creating this vlog! This video was what I needed. I’m so glad that you enjoy your team and are happy with the project that you’re working on. I wish you lifelong success on your journey. 😊

Do you personally listen to music while coding?

Nope. I can’t multitask. Lmao But I can listen to music with no words, like jazz instrumentals.
