Editor's Notes

- WeWork in Portland
- Gonna let the Oatmeal illustrate a bunch of my talk
- Phone calls Gifs Memes Emoji
- Get a damn headset. BTW, you’ll want one for interviews—or a good mic. And you’ll want a webcam if you don’t have one. If you’re home, be aware of your surroundings. If you’re seeing into someone’s home, be respectful.
- I actually had some of this with the “Awesome heading.”
- Purr programming.
- Meh.
- I’m here. Meetups. Conferences. Quarterlies.
- Social justice aspect of remote working—easier to hire folks we aren’t really hiring in tech.
- This actually CAN be a problem. Not for me. But I’ve heard tell.
- Workplace safety—sexual harassment
- Keep a bookmark category of remote-friendly/remote-first companies/resources
