The Question I Hate The Most!

Published May 3, 2019 by Shay Taree

Now I’m sure all of us have questions that we hate being asked. Whether it’s about dating, kids, or any topic in between all we know is when that topic comes up it makes us cringe.

For me the question I hate is when people ask me about my career goals or where I plan to be on 5 years time. Honestly for me I just don’t know how to answer that question so I always be stumped on what to say.

Usually I don’t know if they mean my career goals with that company or just in general. Because I know that my goals in general usually don’t have anything to do with the company.

So usually I ask for more clarification before answer and go into talking about my YouTube and blogging stuff but I still feel out of place. But what questions do you guys hate? Comment down below and let me know.

Interview Attire (Why)!!!

Published May 2, 2019 by Shay Taree

So I’m going through a job interview today for another job within my company and I came across a dilemma. I wasn’t sure if I needed to dress up or not since these people are my co-workers. Now when I go to work I dress in jeans, a t-shirt, and a sweatshirt. So I felt it was weird to dress up since y’all see me everyday in this outfit.

This got me to thinking about why do we have to dress up for interviews. Like I get that it’s polite and good impressions but I really doubt that my slightly too small slacks and itchy shirt are going to make me qualified for this job. I mean your mostly listening to my qualifications so what do my clothes I have to do with it.

I know some people are going to say that first impressions mean everything but aren’t we also told not to judge a book by its cover. Now I agree you should come dressed in sweats or booty shorts but I do think that you should be comfortable.

So I think that comfortable attire should be allowed at job interviews and the office. Yes there should be some structure but I think the suit and tie or slacks should be retired.

But I want to know what y’all think? Do you think that comfortable clothes should be allowed during job interviews? Comment down below and let me know.

What If Instagram Hid Likes?

Published April 25, 2019 by Shay Taree

So just last week I happened to read an article written by The Verge that talked about a unreleased feature from Instagram that would’ve hidden likes. The only person that would be able to view how many likes a post got would be the original poster.

The meaning of this feature was so that followers focused on the content you posted and not how many likes a post got.

Well after reading this article it got me thinking about how the platform would be very different if this feature existed. I feel like if this feature was around it would greatly reduce the comparison issue to some extent. I feel like so many of us focus on how many likes a picture we post gets compared to our friends that it makes us very careful of what we post for fear of it not getting a lot of likes.

Also I wonder if it would have a impact on how many people would have actually been discovered as influencers because of this feature. As many of us know a lot of brands look at which people have a lot of followers or likes on pictures and use this to their advantage when it comes to brand deals and things like that. Well what would it be like if you couldn’t see how many likes someone’s picture got? I think a lot of brands would not use Instagram as a platform for pushing a product so much and many Instagram models may no longer have a job.

I know many of y’all are probably thinking well what about followers we would still see that count. That is true but I feel like it would be unlikely to tell if these are legit followers or followers this person may have bought.

Overall if this feature existed I feel like Instagram would be a very very different platform. But to be honest I kind of wish that it existed. I wish that it was a feature that you could turn on or off.

So now I extend the question to you…Do you like the idea of this feature? Would you use this feature? Also how do you think this feature would affect the platform? Plus do you think it would be a start to helping to turn down comparison surrounding the likes or what a person posts? Let me know by commenting down below.

Beyoncé’s Homecoming!

Published April 18, 2019 by Shay Taree

So yesterday I got a chance to check out Beyoncé’s Homecoming special on Netflix and all I have to say is that it is amazing. The Netflix special pretty much gives you a behind the scenes look of Beyoncé’s performance at Cochella. It also goes a little more in depth to her pregnancy and birth of the twin Rumi and Sir.

You see how she picks the band, her dancers, her steppers and the reason why she decided to make the artistic decisions that she did. One of the things she says is that she wanted to bring our culture the black culture to Cochella for all to experience. She also chose the people that she chose so that all the people that felt that they didn’t fit in or were different were represented on stage.

It was definitely an amazing thing to see and it made me very proud to be not only black but also a black women. It made me feel powerful and proud to be who I am.

I definitely recommend other people to check it out if you can because it was definitely eye opening and also inspiring. I can also say that I think it will be inspiring to those that may not love her music because she has a way of touching everyone in some way.

So watch it on Netflix and check out her new album that also released on the same day under the same title as the Netflix special. Plus comment down below on what you thought of the special of you watched it or if you will watch it?
