Quotes to ponder:
"I think the difference is that when I was an employee, I didn’t control my assignments, which meant I had no power."
"I hated having to put on this show. It might not seem like that big of a deal, but I found it tiring. It made me feel inauthentic."
"It’s okay if you’re not that good at your job. It’s not a personal failing on your part."
