I’ll keep this short.
As of yesterday, Tuesday, 2 August, ThoughtWorks Studios decided they no longer needed my services. “Your position is no longer being funded” is the terminology they used. Yeah.
Needless to say, I’m looking forward. A single tweet produced some fantastic results, and I’m overwhelmed by the nature and volume of the responses I’ve received.
More to come as I discover it.
[...] If you know me, you know I spend a bunch of time in #2 (shmoozing) and, if given the opportunity, a bunch of time in #4 (teaching and sharing). It’s not unlikely that I will be doing #5 (volunteering) and #1 (learning). Up until Tuesday of this week, I was expecting to do a bit of #3 (selling/marketing) on behalf of ThoughtWorks. Clearly, I’ll have that time free. [...]
Congratulations.
I know it sounds silly, but I’m serious. I know this will turn out good for you.
Enjoy the conference.
