I was going to say that I’ve learned that networking is like 90% of getting ahead. Treat everyone you work with and know well, keep in contact with them every once in a while, and it can, not that it will, pay off.
You aren’t the only one who doesn’t get the Slack love. I HATE their design philosophy. It has threads. That’s all it’s got going for i in my opinion. The rest of it is confusing and a pain to use.
Oh and, anyone from Paramount* thinking of a new Star Trek series should read these comments and watch every episode mentioned. THIS is what makes Star Trek great, not any of its action or temporal timelines.
We need more people well off to do things like this. Well done!
