Be Real
Don’t wear a mask at work.
No, I’m not talking about *those* masks.
I’m talking about pretending to be someone you’re not.
Show your real self!
Why bother with working for companies that don’t value YOU? Where it’s hard to express your opinion or show your personality?
If you’re not happy at your current job, find cool jobs that will celebrate the true you.
Be free.
