When you're in a meeting and some dude restates what you said earlier to take credit for your idea:
When a male ally in the meeting notices this, and calls out that it was, in fact, originally your proposed idea:
When male allies support women to make sure they are heard, not spoken over, paid equally, and treated with respect in the workplace:
When you're paid fairly and equally, thanks to salary transparency from men in your role/industry:
When folks claim that you are a "diversity hire":
My go-to answer when asked "so, what is it like to be a woman in tech?":

🀨 @fast recently pulled an offer from my friend. Personally, I'm not a fan.
Like, offer signed- 2 weeks notice at previous job given. I'd love an explanation, cuz I'm pissed.
This would have been their first job in tech (from a non-tech background). Imagine getting offered a life changing amount of money in an offer, giving your 2 weeks on a Friday, and waking up on email with a revoked offer on Monday.

This ain't it, @fast. Do better.

We need to standardize "table flip" as a reaction on all video conferencing platforms. Sometimes a wave/heart/thumbs up just won't do.

5 years ago I was performing on this stage as a crayon in "The Day the Crayons Quit", and pounding redbull to get my energy high enough to perform 2 morning shows a day for kids πŸŽ­πŸ–οΈπŸ˜΄

If you think it's too late to learn to code/make a career switch, I promise you it's not. πŸ‘©β€πŸ’»πŸ’™ Image
Not everyone has the luxury of being exposed to computer science at an early age. There's no shame in learning later in life- we all start somewhere.

If you feel like you don't belong in tech, I assure you, there's space for you (and we need you). πŸ’™β€οΈ

Imagine calling something "Abundance 360", and it then being a COVID-19 super spreader event... Silicon Valley continues to be a parody of itself. sfgate.com/coronavirus/ar…
"I flew to Culver City in a global Panera, paid $30k, and all I got was a life threatening virus" 😳

Y'all the irony of it being called "ABUNDANCE 360".
Y'all... how is this REAL??
