Oh hey speaking of @PostlightStudio, we are in search of a WordPress engineer.

We're not "a WordPress shop," but we often use WP as a CMS accelerator & as 1 component in a larger stack making smart use of its APIs.

I take full responsibility for the role I played in equating personal productivity with a tidy todo list and an empty inbox. But those are not what makes someone productive. Keeping a tidy todo list, calendar & inbox are practices that help some people (like me) get the stuff done they say they will when they say they will. That's about being reliable and meeting obligations.

Best lesson writing a popular blog taught me: when faced with criticism, separate haterade from productive feedback <3 this disapproval matrix. Understand the criticism before you consider it annfriedman.com/post/491529677…
