I mentioned in the virus thread I have a new job, and I’m happy to say that
after over 3 years of not working my new job is as a Technical Account
Manager at WordPress VIP for Automattic!

I’ll be supporting enterprise clients as the bridge between tech and sales,
and it appears to be very similar to the client relationship model we had at
digital.forest, so it’s a very good fit.
Everybody works remotely, so I’ve been busy getting my home office set up,
reading through the training materials, and doing Zoom calls with my new
colleagues. That I somehow managed to land a remote-only job right before a
global pandemic is not lost on me and I’m counting my lucky stars every day.
The hiring process took five(!) months and included responding to sample
trouble tickets, documenting a client interaction, and a mock call with a
fictional client.
So if any of y’all host @ WordPress, you have an inside gal now. :-)
