I could go back to school, but it’d be a huge burden to my family. Some certifications would go a long way toward getting me to my goal of getting the job and being able to eventually become a foreman, but you only offer the courses I need occasionally, and I’m not sure if I can grow at company X without them.

Once upon a time, some manager decided that the best way to let employees know how they’re doing was to summon them once a year for a nerve-wracking reckoning with the bosses called an “annual performance review” During that meeting, they’d discuss what the employee was doing wrong, the things he was getting right, and then say goodbye for another year until it was time to do it all over again.

There are many conferences I would love to be able to attend, but most people can only accommodate one or two each year. The backchannel is an excellent resource for learning from a conference or event, even if you are unable to attend in-person.
