cynthiang-ca-795		Reflection Part 1: My first year at GitLab and becoming Senior – Learning (Lib)Tech			.html	text/html	2252	172	73	About a year ago, I wrote a reflection on Summit and Contribute, our all staff events, and later that year, wrote a series of posts on the GitLab values and culture from my own perspective. We had a couple of Support Engineers on the team, but the hiring process for that position was geared towards people who would work on the self-managed product, so we never actually hired any new ones. Even then, GitLab is a large product and at the time, there were close to 300 company members, so there was a lot to learn both on the technological side and the company/culture side. My fear of making mistakes has never disappeared, but with my manager's encouragement, I started to take on work that I thought would benefit the team without asking ahead of time.	./cache/cynthiang-ca-795.html	./txt/cynthiang-ca-795.txt
