What I’m Learning:
One cool thing I learned at work last week:
I was given a new responsibility to file away expenses in our QuickBooks account and making sure each expense is correctly categorized.
I also learned exciting news last week; Zcash Foundation won the rights to the Zcash trademark, of which was in a legal dispute with the Electric Coin Company, the creators of Zcash. You can read more about the agreement here.
One cool thing I learned outside of work last week:
Domestic rabbits are social animals and need to bond with other rabbits or their owners. However, bonding two rabbits is a bit tricky; rabbits who’re strangers to each other can’t simply be shoved together and expect to immediately and successfully bond. Just like humans, they need to “date” to find the right match.
What I’m Creating:
One example of how I created value at work last week:
I processed payroll and learned how to file away expenses in QuickBooks
What project I’m currently working on at my BP:
We’re planning activities for our company retreat.
What I’m doing to become a better version of myself overall:
I’m continually learning more Spanish and practicing phrases with my Spanish-speaking friend.
