THE GREAT RESET: Over 200,000 people have been laid off in the #tech industry this year, and the flood of new talent has started to change the job market.

Check out Blind's exclusive research - a thread 🧵:

1/ The Great Resignation and the ease of wage hikes when changing jobs may be over.

56% of U.S. professionals said they would accept the same or LESS pay in a new role, per an April 2023 survey by Blind

2/ The perceived weakness of the job market is why many say they're now willing to accept lower pay.

45% cited market concerns—more than those who picked company culture, return-to-office policy, or even the need for a work visa as their top reason COMBINED

📷 "Is Insta dead?" This is the question on many people's minds after tech mogul Elon Musk recently tweeted this...

🤖 "Will AI Replace Artists?" This is another question that's been buzzing around the art world lately. A recent headline claimed that an Instagram photographer with nearly 29,000 followers since October had admitted that his stunning portraits were all AI-generated.

This begs the question - if AI can produce artwork that is indistinguishable from human-generated work, what does the future hold for artists?

1/4 "Leadership is not defined by the exercise of power but by the capacity to increase the sense of power among those led. The most essential work of the leader is to create more leaders." Mary Parker Follett (1868-1933) #leadership #work #power #internationalwomensday2023

2/4 Mary P. Follett started influencing management and management thinking over a century ago. Her ideas remain deeply relevant to our time – and will continue to be relevant for decades into the future. #internationalwomensday2023

"We are treated worse than the #robots doing automated tasks in the warehouses. If the robots have an issue, the company pays for them to be serviced, whereas if we drop below certain targets multiple times, we can be fired – we have to sort it out or get out"

"Everyone who I work with at the warehouse in Coventry is frustrated.... The shifts are hard work, spent all on our feet, walking miles back and forth through large warehouses. All of that for just £10.50 an hour. That’s why about 400 workers at our warehouse are striking today."

@solomonsucceeds

Please do not give any person, especially not a disabled person, this advice:

Why don't you go work for [one of the most unethical corporations in existence]?

Giving this advice to someone because they posted something about a kind of job hunting or wanting $$ is no exception.

In that circumstance, it would still be awful advice, and when you give it to a disabled person, it's bad, awful, ableist advice.

It's so frustrating that I'm almost out of my 20's and any family member of mine still thinks this is okay.

I never asked for assistance with a job search or even said I said I was searching for a job. I have a profile on a freelance work site.

Giving me this awful unsolicited advice is willfully ignoring my disabilities and my principles.

1/ EU regulations are not perfect but are not ‘red tape’ either. They improve the quality of our everyday lives by protecting our rights as #workers and #consumers, our #environment and #wildlife and the quality of the #food we eat.

Please, read on 2/ to get more detail on the #REUL Bill (Retained EU Law)
I personally experienced that EU decisions were all scrutinised by UK Parliamentary Committees before they became law! kentbylines.co.uk/balance-of-com…

EU laws – that the Government now wants to dismantle – protect us in the workplace. They guarantee our paid holidays, reduce the gender pay gap and protect

1/5 As many of you here watch family, friends, associates and colleagues living their best lives out there, as #COVID19 surges, please know that many ARE NOT okay.

"Psychoanalyst Judith Alpert theorizes that our culture is terrified of death, illness, and vulnerability."

2/5 "Thus, “[t]hose who have contact with the #chronically #ill . . . do not want to be #reminded of #vulnerability and #ultimate #demise. In turn, the demand placed on the chronically ill is to #control, #hide, and #overcome the #chronic #illness.” (Alpert, 2012)."

3/5 Many of those who appear to be living their best lives are faking wellness to fit in.

@scientissimum

Good morning #medtwitter! Today #scientissimum would like to show you a #publichealth case of poor working conditions. Did you know that according to @WHO almost 2million people die from work-related causes each year? 450,000 deaths were related to workplace air #pollution 💨

(particulate matter, gases, and fumes). Any #job in the world has a meaning, whether you are a #doctor, #constructionworker or #janitor - each plays a very important role in the #society. However, no money in the world can ever buy the #health you need to continue #living and

and enjoying your #life. #Work smart and don’t expose yourselves to the dangerous situations, that may lead to the tragic outcomes!🦺

The time of stock images is over. In our design process, we can't rely on AI's work, but we can use it as inspiration and research tool. Interesting ideas from @erikdkennedy in his recent newsletter Design Hacks (learnui.design/newsletter.html) (very recommended, btw):

– For AI Portraits, use Lexica Aperture (lexica.art/aperture),
– For AI headlines and CTAs, use ChatGPT (chat.openai.com),
– For AI textures, icons and visual assets, use DALL-E (openai.com/dall-e-2/),

– For AI logos, use LogoAI (logoai.com),
– For AI font picking, use ChatGPT,
– For AI image retouching, use Background Remover (icons8.com/bgremover) and Remove Background (remove.bg).
