💼 If Money Wasn't the Issue, What Job Would You Choose? 💭

Hey everyone 👋

Hello!

Which one of you all have published a book before?!

I would add. The big tech platforms manipulate the algos to favor those who align with their narratives and morals. I feel my own content has been suppressed because of some of the beliefs I hold. I think soj.ooO can be great for small independent publishers and content creators to get their content seen again. I don't see this platform as solely a place to talk about culture and politics. We all have hobbies and other interests and that's why I started /p/tech and /p/guitars I like discussing politics and culture, but sometimes you need a break. So it is nice to see people starting pochas like /p/recipes and /p/funny and /p/backyard-chicken-coop We need various content here, not just political. 😎

Lol hell yeah Matt!  This is the first time I've made an account and posted on a social media before because I agree with your vision.  I have no interest in participating on a platform that controls what people say.  Best of luck the success of this platform!

My only job since graduating college was being an automation engineer at a start up company, and I actually really enjoyed doing that.  I got a lot of first hand learning about how to run a company and launch products and services and was an active role in all aspects of the company functioning on top of being an engineer. At some point, while I enjoyed doing the job, the ideas started seeping into my head that I could 100% start my own company.  I could do what I pretty much currently was doing except instead of just a salary I would also reap the benefits of the companies success.   Since leaving and starting my own ventures I would say that I also enjoy being an entrepreneur, however I targeted areas and needs that seemed promising rather than my my dream job.   My area of expertise is in automated manufacturing, I would install robotics into machine shops that fabricated parts.  This has a lot to do with my current ventures (I can get into those another time).  I would say my dream job is to make my own vineyard and automate as much of it as possible.  Then I could just sell my wine and make sure all of my machines are working. (My family has made homemade wine for generations but they never have sold it, they kept it all to themselves!  I would love to get the chance to combine my hobby with my work).  I definitely believe I will do it one day!

to the success\*  (FYI I am pro not letting people edit messages even though I cannot type and will mess up often haha)

Can you elaborate more on your current business, you got me interested, I'm working currently in the VA and Real Estate I really wish you the best my man, it seems that you got your goals locked in! What other goals for 2025 you are working for?
