  • Not underselling yourself works! (Positive outcome after a conversation last week)
  • Looking at the wrong site during testing when you’re editing something
  • The Spaceship operator in PHP
  • Changing from full time employee to contractor
  • Trying to change how you use social media
  • Not really knowing the people you work with because of bad remote working techniques
