Chemohawk Sessions

Podience, You keep listening and I shall keep glistening light to reflect back and illuminate those dark places you may sometimes find yourself when in despair. Welcome to another helpful, healing dose of Chemohawk Sessions. Here, we will go Greek at the beginning, but loop all that mythology back around and weave it into a hybrid quilt cut of both historical and contemporary cloth as it applies t...

Podience, You get both a three-day vacation from work and closure on our three-way lesson concerning the Delphic Maxims! Here we will discuss the mammoth mistake in thinking you know everything, symptoms to spot in others who claim they know all and how to conduct yourself accordingly. Do you grow vexed to an uncurable degree, dear listeners, when others who know a teeny, tiny bit proclaim to know...

Podience, Covideo came, coughed on us; we contracted, but ultimately conquered. Our cells slapped the shiz out of Covid while we worked and watched from our virtual cells of the WC. It is so easy and requires virtually zero effort to identify negatives and nag with volume, but look a little deeper, scan a tad harder and you shall find a trove of unintended treasures. What did the king-flu do to yo...

Podience, Welcome to another healing, enriching short! I promised, previously, that we would devote one episode to each of the Delphic Maxims and I am following through on that pledge in fine fstars fashion. Do you lust, covet or desire to a debilitating degree? A little ambition may offer motivation and healthy challenges, but so rapidly can it foment and ferment into something ruinous. This epis...

Podience, Loyal listeners rejoice for this episode affords me the distinct pleasure of putting what I have learned to fstars use. I spent WC years atop a lifetime of negotiating for myself, for my peers and for my career. To negotiate properly can be satisfying, to broker poorly can be an exercise in exhaustion. Here you will hear and walk away with painstakingly picked subject matter lending you...

Podience, I am the fstars Candyman and YOU are in for two treats! Treat number 1: this is a special Chemohawk Session as it is a Seven Deadly Synergy Session. Treat number 2: this is a Podience Session with Wam Bam Kam. I can barely contain myself scribing these intro notes for you, THAT is the level of unfettered excitement we are talking about here. Do you have the gift of gab, Podience? Does it...

Podience, The lionized weekend looms. Drink up; T.G.I.F. Tonic, Gin, Ice, Friday! Did you know there is a healing ingredient in tonic known as quinine. I struggle to pronounce quinine properly, and I still fail to get it just right, but you know what I mean. Does your WCC provide stellar customer service? Or do they struggle with that feat and instead spread customer disservice leaving YOU holding...

Welcome loyal listeners, I offer a gambit of praise for your loyalty and listening skills. As this is a touchy topic, it only makes sense that we touch it! Touch it, we shall, dear Podience. If the goal of a country, or a WC conglomerate, is unity and clarity of vision, why stockpile either with a medley of words that begin with di... as in dichotomy (a division into two) discord, disagreement, di...

Greetings to you precious patients of these Chemohawk Sessions, You will receive a minor but critical dose of Chemohawk medicine from Dr. Prophet today with your second Chemohawk Sessions Short. Did you know that collegiate degrees in B.S. M.S. and PHD might also mean something scatological? We will expound on that as we remind ourselves the value of knowing thyself. The words "Know Thyself" were...

Podience,  There is no me without you. I sing your praises and indispensability at the start of this session. I do not know about you, but I struggled with math to a pitiful degree. However, I do recognize that mathematics can manifest certain charms and, for purposes of this episode, show us the ideal manager to pray, wish or beg for. Do you like your current manager and their managerial sty...

Podience, Welcome to our extra special sauce delectable debut of Chemohawk PODIENCE Sessions! Today, I have a super special sauce, wow, I really fancy my fstars sauce, guest speaker who will affectionally and summarily be referred to as WAM BAM Fstars Kam. Now, the fstars is optional, but, also requisite and essential as it makes for a more theatrical introduction. Does that remind, podience, you...

Loyal listeners, welcome to your workplace sanctuary of Chemohawk Sessions. Welcome to lean, episode 18. Have you ever been a coach? You most assuredly have been a mentee. As a mentee, I bet you eagerly awaited a mentor who could coach with a calming, stylish wisdom. Calm coaching begets a calmed audience. Let this episode soothe your stress, engender your snickering and allow you to leave with a...

Podience, I appreciate you loyal listeners with all of my Falsetto Prophet prophetic power and falsetto register. Welcome to your next dose of Chemohawk Sessions. Do you know what your WCC stands for? Do you understand the mission? What is your major mission malfunction, soldier? You better know if you want to grow and go with the white-collar dogmatic flow. We will scratch the surface and then pl...

Podience,  As it is the weekend, I gift you your premier Chemohawk Sessions Short #1 . How many will there be? Think not to ask me! I prefer to keep you breathless with anticipation. Friends are life's safety nets, better to cast a wide net, compound your squad of allies and confound your enemies. Keep close your friends, dear Podience, and chain letter them a recurring dose of these Chemohaw...

Howdy Podience, There will be at least one TX reference as I mention a rattlesnake on this episode. Additionally, some scientific mumbo jumbo, but the material is as alarming as it is apt while we discuss your pondered options dangling on your workplace rope. Will you hang yourself, hold on for dear fstars life, or cut it and pull the rip cord so you may land a new joyous pursuit? These options wi...

Hello again, Podience! We have violated the hallowed WCC grounds of buzzsaw words once before with our very first Chemohawk Session: Chapter 1: White-Collar, Black Belt: Buzzsaw Words. Here we are, many sessions later, with Buzzsaw Words Redux, a conclusion to the buzzsaw blight. You will hear that unsettling buzzsaw sound, once more, as we search desperately for the method to buzzsaw words' madne...

Podience, Set aside the lava hot java, confirm your boss is preoccupied, and prepare to laugh like a loony jester. This episode contains nuggets, personal accounts, and humorous examples of real-life laughter inducing corporate ineptitude. Laughter is magical in its medicinal properties. You know who said that? Mr. Prophet, that's who! We are sidestepping deep research in this episode and replacin...

Hello superstitious, prophetic Podience, Not only are we gliding into another weekend this Friday, but it is the 13th episode of Chemohawk Sessions. As such, we will treat this as though it is a legit s*** Friday the 13th. I will incorporate tales of horror, some curiosity scratching trivia on the witching hour, why 13 is a lucky numeric, and the method behind this episode title's madness. This wi...

Howdy Podience, for those who reside in Texas.  Criticism can be an indelible blight if you allow it to consume you. Instead, I offer a philosophical prism that you can apply to any criticism that may trickle down to you at work, or in life. Laugh! Laugh d*** you! Laugh and let that laughter heal you with its intrinsic medicinal properties. The Joker got that part of his teaching correct: LAU...

Podience, I know not how appreciated you feel at your occupied workspace, but you are appreciated by Falsetto Prophet in this Chemohawk Session space. Have you ever, or are you presently navigating your own successful path with a supervisor barring your way? We will chat about that, incorporate a different angled approach to your thought process, and perorate more Greek mythology. We have crossed...

Happy early weekend, Podience! Here is a dollop of Chemohawk Sessions to lubricate your smooth transition into a restful weekend. Do you enjoy being a virtual hologram? Let's define RESTING GLITCH FACE. It sure offers some undeniable perks, but also comes with a price. We will discuss those perks and that price as we broach the vices and virtues of the virtual, how to interview properly through yo...

Podience,  I appreciate you. And to convince you of my appreciation, I packed this Chemohawk Session full of confessionals, personal accounts and my own rap version of a Vanilla Ice song for you. You are worth it, dear Podience. If you've ever needed a Rosetta Stone translation of management's wicked wordplay and beyond, this is the episode for you. Here, I will provide a decoding of the high...

Dear Podience, Do you have value? Does your employer capture your value? Does it register? Is your employer in the proper intellectual and altruistic mindset to reward your value with concomitant spoils? Even a seasoned prostitute knows their value and refuses to accept any amount that falls below their self-declared worth. Perhaps Joker makes the most informed and telling statement in The Dark Kn...

Dear Podience, Thank you again for your free-flowing feedback, some of your poignant pointers will be discussed. While the film et al. references will continue to be incorporated, know I will do my part to try and keep things as in the present as possible. Did you know that an albatross is a gigantic bird, but also an encumbrance?  We are going to get down, dirty and Greek in our witty analys...

Dear Podience, Here is another dose of Chemohawk Sessions chalked full of quotes, movie references, and an incremental deluge of more Falsetto personality. Can you keep a clean workstation? The benefits may be astronomical if you entertain the idea. Dress, in the office, as though you lead the gaggle of professional geese: fierce, clean and orderly to their next accomplishments. While we are stoki...
