Her jobs basically micromanging. Constantly asking much more knowledgable engineers and devs “how you doing on this” every hour of the day.
that's the same impression I got from the video. is that all she does? calling people and saying: "how is it going? you done?"
i definitely chose the wrong path in life lol

Yeah, she seems to do almost nothing. She's essentially just a glorified team leader who obscures the fact that she knows very little by parroting the stuff the dev team have said, but adds a cringeworthy amount of random buzzword jargon and cites self-help mantra bullshit to try to make herself sound intelligent and important.

It's pretty close to the approach she took to studying, and I had flashbacks to that awful podcast she did where she just spouted 30 minutes of pretentious waffle to hide the fact that she wasn't actually saying anything of merit or value.

"Ya gal's using the board-based waterfall approach of Kanban and time-blocking her workstream so I can engage in deep-work while monitoring the product roadmap." In reality, her day seemed to amount to: Asked the devs what they're doing, then told the client what the devs are doing.

She also just mispronounces a bunch of common words again ("ven-doors", "routee-ehn", "emahls", "cultchruh shock") which doesn't exactly help make her seem intelligent.

completely agree, i've seen tons of people using the kanban system (although i didn't know it was called kanban, i've seen it on notion dashboards or on the trello app) and her swearing over time-blocking....girl it's 2022

the thing is that i believe she was looking forward to something like this for so long
when she was still a trainee solicitor she tweeted this:

i mean...why would a trainee solicitor need to learn how to code? i know she said she wasn't happy being a lawyer and switched careers (many months later) because she found out that her mind craved a more creative job (creative job=managing other people ehem)
it's like waaaaaaay before leaving law her mind was already set on other sectors
