Perhaps the career and space enthusiast gods are nudging you to attend a Starship launch during your downtime? :hmmm:

Good news is there's parking at work now.

You should also consider doing unpaid volunteer work.

For my company.

Sorry to hear it, Tech is the right space though!

You'll find another one soon! I prefer working a the smaller orgs and helping them build something, the payoff can be better than big orgs.

Good luck brotha!
