Robinhood is no longer allowing users to do anything but close out their #GME or #AMC positions. Hard to put into words how outrageous that is. This is, much more acutely, the definition of manipulating the market.

Do you think all this whining at my cat about how she needs to get a job is why she is now trying to create a job where she moves sparkly balls back and forth?

I created this "Maslow's hierarchy of jobs" about 20 years go. Iv'e found to be good guide for when was time to move on (or stay). If you're failing at one or more of the lower 5 levels (pay not likely to continue, getting paid but nobody cares what you do) might be time to find a more productive gig.
You probably won't see this from HR in goals setting and performance management sessions.
