I'm sure she could if she wanted. But what if she doesn't want to? Side thought: if she was a man, no one would bat an eye at a solo status.

I don't work there, so I have no idea if the info is readily available (I hope it is for the sake of efficiency of our agencies). But, to your point, it shouldn't be sent to Musk.

It is shit leadership if your supervisors don't know what you do (this is like a massive pet peeve of mine - that's like literally their only job). And, possibly to your point, if your leadership can't articulate what your team is doing, it puts your job at risk, when really they should be removing layers of management. But all of this is beside the point, because Musk shouldn't be the one doing it.

I'm so torn about this as an activity. Telling my bosses what I've accomplished each week has been part of my regular work for 2 decades - so this doesn't feel like an unreasonable request and I'm a bit surprised the info is not at the ready. But Musk is absolutely the wrong person to make the request and any decisions based on the information received.

I train people on how to speak (to executives, during a presentation, with clients) all the time. In my line of work, a client can end a contract if they don't like engaging with my team - so it is pretty relevant to the job.

Sadly, I do not. And the fact that your Teams notification is giving me anxiety probably means I could use some recommendations too.

That's a weird way to pronounce foreign agent.

English is a beautifully confusing language.

My son (10 yo) has a few very strong interests that he talks about pretty much nonstop. We haven't discouraged any kind of talking because he was quite delayed. However it has come to my attention that his narrow focus on these topics can annoy his peers at school. I don't want him to feel ashamed about his interests, but I also don't want him to be ostracized at school. I'd really appreciate any thoughts this group may have on how to handle (or not) this situation. TIA!
