Thread regarding Wells Fargo & Co. layoffs

Embrace the suck......sink all of your extra $$'s in Microsoft, Costco, Home Depot, Walmart stock. Retire at 33.

But since my younger self didn't listen, partied, went to college and is now with Wells Fucko, I will continue to be ra--d daily by a negligent leadership team until I leave.

Stick with interior design. It’s fun, you’re your own boss and you’ll probably make more.

Become an investment banker and retire at 50

Don't stress over anything, you're going to be fine. In fact, you will have millions in the bank after you leave WF. SPEND MORE TIME WITH FRIENDS/FAMILY

make sure you get all the credentials you can, degrees are not enough alone nor are certifications. No degree will limit how high you can go in the org, and no certifications will limit you be considered unqualified for technical jobs. You need all of them.

@tbz+1euxmsld are you an editor of some radical woman's site.

Don't assume college will lead to a good paying job. Consider other alternatives such as trade school or just get to work after high school.

Worry less and take more chances. Don’t go corporate.

if you cant swim stay out of the pool

1. pay off high interest debt first, as interest rates you pay will exceed return of an investment
2. stay diversified

ignore GPS --> follow roadwork signs

Just stay at JCPenney lmao

1. The toes that you step on today might be attached to the a$$ that you have to kiss tomorrow.

2. You never know who your next boss will be, or the boss after that, so be as polite and professional to the janitor as you would be to the CEO.

3. So after reading #s1 and 2 above, if you are going to burn bridges, be sure to do it in an epic fashion. Blow that b---h in place!

Stay working for yourself.
Don't sell that Tesla Stock
Purchase some of that Bitcoin you've been hearing about.

Well, I as a distributed software developer since the late 1980s I always moved when I saw something even more cooler to develop. In hindsight I wish that I had factored in money, and specifically how much of my personal was spent working for free, instead of just putting in the 60+ hour weeks.

Don’t let The Boys Club keep you down. They know women are smarter, better organized, stronger, better problems solvers, etc. Learn everything you can, speak up in meetings, build a group of like-minded people, be positive and firm and show them how it’s done.

1. Never work for anyone who calls their boss dad/mom
2. Don't think you are making friends with co-workers (very few exceptions). Chances are except for work you have nothing in common with them. Be cordial but don't think the relationships will continue once not part of the same org.
3. The first time you discover you have been lied to, plan your exit strategy abd execute as soon as feasible.
4. Take leaps of faith. If you (realistically) think you can do a job, you can.
5. Take initiative. People who do not need to be told/supervised all the time get the plum assignments and move up.
6. The 401 thing (from an earlier post)
7. Pack your lunch, get a thermos and bring in your own coffee.
8. When you can, buy a new vehicle. Maintain it and keep it for 20 years. Second vehicle...buy use.
9. Don't wear blue jeans to work, even on Friday. Nice slacks are just as comfortable.
10. Only one person has the best interest for you and your own career and you look at them in the mirror when you shave.

Put money into a 401K early and often.

Get into something that you like and have natural born skills over others. Not just who will hire you at the moment you need money.

You will never regret sticking up for yourself. You will only regret it if you don’t.
