Yesterday, I spoke at LA Ruby Conf 2012. My talk was titled “Quit Your Job. Srsly.”. The title was not a metaphor.

It was a very non-technical talk. It was very much an emotional breakdown in front of 200 people kind of talk. It was very …cathartic? …taxing? I’m pretty happy with how it turned out both in the slides and how I delivered it. The feedback from the attendees seems to indicate that it was well received.

For the first time, I wrote a script first for a talk then extracted slides from that. I’ve included the script below.

When I get audio and/or video, I’ll update this post.

I plan to refine this talk a bit and give it at more confs. If you’re interested in having me give this talk at your conf, email me: veganstraightedge@gmail.com.
