Taking Marcy Sutton Todd's A11y course and I am on the section about Design Systems. I was the Design System engineer at my last company and I took it as an opportunity to build with A11y in mind. I added A11y to our docs and made our components more accessible.

Saddest and most naive thing I heard from a designer when I was pushing for accessibility was that "accessible websites are ugly".

Just spent 6 hours reading up on D&D to realize that playing with 1 other player might not be the best experience for our first time. I need a nap after all of that reading haha

I am absolutely devastated. I got laid off yesterday after only being with the company 2 months. I understand last one in first one out, but it still doesn't make this any easier. If you hear of any mid-level FE roles (React), please keep me in mind!

For those that copied one of your repos to move it to another project, but kept the original because it was starred, what verbiage did you add to the original one to let your followers know that the new one is the one you will be updating? GitHub #SoftwareDeveloper

Hey #techtwitter! I'm an experienced Frontend Software Engineer looking for a new job after my last role was eliminated due to company-wide layoffs. Hoping to increase my network! #SoftwareEngineer #WomenWhoCode #tech #SoftwareEngineering

Was rejected for a role because I was laid off from a company that I worked for for only 2 months because they had company-wide layoffs. I hate how this has ruined my reputation as an engineer. Recruiters please stop holding layoffs over the applicant's head! #SoftwareEngineer

Surreal moment... I am 33% Scottish. I still have family in Scotland. Well guess who gets to go to Scotland soon!!! 👍This girl 👍

Back from Scotland and ready to hit the ground running and start applying to job. Do you know any companies hiring for react frontend engineers? #SoftwareEngineering #WomenWhoCode #techtwitter

Rejection after rejection. It is wild that I can make it to the final 2 at a FAANG company but still keep getting rejected prior to the interview at others. Why is getting a job so difficult?!

When Chewy's customer service locks your cart making it impossible for you to add more items or checkout. I was hoping to buy dog toys and treats. I guess I'll take my business elsewhere. Customer service told me they couldn't unlock my cart

You are implementing a new technology at the company. What would be some reasons why you wouldn't allow someone to help with the implementation when the person had prior experience using the tool and also was a contributor to their open source projects?

I paid for the 24-hour emergency propane delivery with AmeriGas Propane. 4 days later, we still don't have propane. We have since run out. They refuse to refund me and they have no idea when they will have it delivered. No ice or snow in our town. What's their excuse?
