Knowing a guy is a goated strat tbh, hardest part is being competent enough that someone you know would vouch for you
I know my mother-in-law, and she knows everyone apparently. Excellent strategy on my part, having a sibling that got married. 40 years in the making that plan.
sounds like you’re not faking it enough
why fake it when you could be good at what you do?
Because by the time you got good at what a job expects you to be good at, they're already forcing you to do something else
What if what you’re good at is “learning new skills?”
