Your bus factor is 1? Congrats, you're one resignation away from chaos. Knowledge hoarding isn’t job security—it’s future disaster. Here’s how to fix it before it breaks you.
From debugging at a card table to leading from the director’s seat—10 years in tech taught me that growth is messy, learning never stops, and cargo shorts are business casual if you commit hard enough.
From custodian to college grad—his story is one of grit, grind, and getting up every time life knocked him down. Perseverance isn’t about having it easy. It’s about pushing forward anyway. This one hit me hard.
A production bug shows up and panic sets in. But fixing it fast doesn’t mean jumping into code instantly. Slow down. Breathe. Read the report. Understand the issue. You’ll fix it faster when you’re not guessing under pressure.
If you don’t know the problem, you’re just guessing at solutions. Before jumping into code, ask: What are we solving? Why is it a problem? Because no one wants to waste hours fixing the wrong thing perfectly.
