How should Bullicorns go about finding an assistant?
@CitizenKateK Anyone can have an assistant if you pay them! No permission needed! #BullishAMA

@CitizenKateK Just DON’T HIRE FRIENDS. It will f up your friendship for reals. #BullishAMA

@CitizenKateK There are plenty of people aiming for this kind of work, advertising themselves on CL, etc. #BullishAMA

@CitizenKateK One great way is to hire several people for small gigs on Taskrabbit (or similar in your area) to build rapport #BullishAMA

@CitizenKateK Also, it still takes more time than you’d think to manage someone (even if they’re awesome). Not a panacea #BullishAMA

@CitizenKateK Sometimes less intense to have several diff PT people for specific tasks #BullishAMA

@CitizenKateK It’s often better to work with several people who run their own small businesses than one person as your employee #BullishAMA

What should Bullicorns do about mansplainers in meetings?
@SighGrumbleHowl Yes! Easiest one is if mansplainer interrupted/stole idea from a woman who’s not you #BullishAMA

@SighGrumbleHowl It’s super-fun to say, “Oh, that’s what Lindsay said earlier. Lindsay, can you tell us more about your idea?” #BullishAMA

@SighGrumbleHowl If he interrupts another woman, again, “Oh wait, I wanted to hear what Nina had to say. Nina can you finish?” #BullishAMA

@SighGrumbleHowl Hopefully, other women catch on and start helping you in the same way #BullishAMA #NETWORKING

@SighGrumbleHowl If just telling u shit u already know, try “I’ve got that, but I’ll shoot you an email if I run into trouble” #BullishAMA

@SighGrumbleHowl You can really piss them off with, “I want to make sure everyone gets equal time to talk” and then call on ppl #BullishAMA

@SighGrumbleHowl They are only comfortable w/illusion of meritocracy where they just happen to be on top always #BullishAMA

Too many commitments?
