  • Rad! Enjoy the success high, but you’re going to want to keep chasing that dragon. Don’t be bummed if it fails to work a second time. They adapt, and sometimes they are having a bad day and even the coolest uncle will hit a wall.

    Helpful things for bath:

    • toys that squirt water
    • bath bombs with toys inside
    • the drawing / painting stuff you mentioned
    • hand mirrors for seeing themselves covered in suds
    • cups and buckets for moving water around
    • suction cup toys for the walls (water spout things, marble race courses, etc)

    Also, if you’re new to working with kids, timers that visually count down (not digital, ones that have a colored wheel of how much time is left) are helpful for starting / ending tasks. Also tricks like betting them they cant wash their own hair, or you can finish a bath before the end of the timer can work well. And on nice days with a rain shower, go soap up out side. do it with them. clean off from the hose, they love it.

    you’re doing great! keep it up!






  • You’re 25, unless your dream job is social media manager, you have 10+ years before anyone starts using your age against you. No matter which job you take, you can always pivot, just spend a few minutes crafting a narrative.

    You can learn at any company. The financial company is going to give you a lot of space to learn process and compliance, and probably be infuriatingly slow, but you’ll probably come out with a different opinion about risk. The IoT start up is probably going to let you have more independence and playing with rando tech, and you will learn more about work life balance and your own working habits there.

    If you’ve never worked remote, take the contract and see how much that flex is worth to you monetarily. You might be surprised. I would rather rub shit in my hair than wear a suit to an office everyday. But then again, maybe you love volley ball that much.
