Minnesota Mixup posted:Basically. Ill still have a call with the guy next week because I've know him and the VP for that stuff for almost 5 years now through my PhD work. Mad that they'd do that to me tho. gently caress 'em. Put them on speakerphone, tea-bag the phone, send them a video.

I start my first FTE position on Tuesday and the company mailed me a letter with gift cards for several of the best restaurants in the area. I think I've made the right choice. Feels good to unsubscribe from all the job search emails.

Asymmetric POSTer posted:lol it eventually got formalized into a "kudos" web portal system where instead of a slip of paper it was all automated, down to radio buttons for the gift card value there was a "$0" option, something I only knew because a guy on my team got one and he took the last 5 minutes of a technical presentation to throw it up on the screen and profusely thank our manager for the consideration
