One of my coworkers is grieving and I just know my boss is going to make it a bad day. Gut feeling.

My ex boss texted me at 10 pm to ask where the computer I turned in yesterday, along with my insurance card and keys to the restaurant was. loving ask someone who works for you, like maybe the manager who I turned this all in to. What a child.

I don't want to get too extreme but maybe perhaps setting your boss on fire is a viable solution??

MN does your boss favor natural fibres or synthetic blends?

Fire is always a viable solution. The question is always: How much and how often? In this case, "A lot" and "Frequently".

Warehouse guy is still out of office. My wrists are in immobilizer braces. No good.

Lot of health stuff (not covid) happening in the office and today was the day that certain team members started the yearly "all right, who died in the last year because we need to keep our records up to date" and a lot of that information is terrible and sad.

I have an interview with Big Year Company in a few. Wish me luck. We distribute their stuff and hilariously, I can sell, and I have a title that is appealing for them.

Thanks bud. I am nervous but we'll see. There's a technical screen I had to complete and it was literally the easiest one I've ever done, I got 100% on it per the engineer that talked to me yesterday. Now it's the group interview with the founders...who regularly text memes with me. About butts. I think I'll be okay.

Lol I'm on the zoom call waiting and there's a picture of me, the founders, some goats and my dogs (may they rest, my babies) bouncing around on the screen.

I'm fine this is fine.

Interview complete. I think I did pretty well. So I can stop making GBS threads my pants about that, and start making GBS threads my pants waiting to find out if I'm selected, and then continue making GBS threads my pants if I am selected. Also I had a bunch of cherries and strawberries and dried figs with my lunch so there's just going to be a lot of shitted pants in my future.

That was basically "we already know you and we like you so let's talk about other stuff about the job and tell you who you're going to talk to with the board" so that was good.

If I don't get the job it means someone thinks I'm good enough to interview and it's a hell of an endorsement to have the founders have my back in this anyway, because I miss doing this particular thing in this industry.

How Wonderful!


I only have excellent ideas
Good luck MN! If I were in your shoes I'd already be pumping my fist and like vaulting over park benches, crooking my arm around lamp-posts and doing a spin, pirouetting around an old lady on the cross-walk and then kissing her on the cheek... when I get to a puddle two sailors on shore leave appear on either side of me and hoist me across while I continue my little song... I mean to say I'd be feeling pretty good based on the signals you're describing!!!

AskAManager cautions about expectations from an excellent interview and also recommends thank you notes. Not necessary, but a well-written one can tip the scales.

Already on it about the thank you note. I'm trying to hold it together and just temper all expectations but literally any morsel of serotonin and dopamine my brain can get is good.

I posted this in GBS because people are incredulous that I could possibly make 8x what I did. Lol I make very small money, and it's not a good wage model, plus I'm in logistics and distribution. It's not an entry level wage, it's a bad wage at a worse company that lives and dies by "we're a small business and that means we're family," and frankly I cannot wait until I'm out of here.

I have a different interview lined up with a different company on Friday evening as well. Fingers and toes crossed.

Getting interviews set up is definitely a good step! Good luck! You really deserve a break.

I'm back to being gainfully unemployed. My company is paying me, but I don't really have any work to do right now because they're still waiting for some paperwork. So definitely going to be able to brew, but I think things might be delayed with the whole covid thing. I'm kind of glad for the break after so many months of tough labor made more difficult by qn owner who's too cheap to get proper equipment.

In addition to y'all, I've had a couple friends interview for tech jobs recently, and it's convinced me that I am never leaving my current position.

Tech job interviews were ridiculous in the 90s and have only gotten ridiculouser as the cargo cult of interviewing goes further and further off the deep end.

In the mean time, i have rewritten the interview questions for the summer school I started, in order to hopefully stop screening out every candidate who is not a white dude. Wish me luck on this.

Yeeeeeah, I had a technical test on a recent interview with a company. They gave me eight minutes to do the thing; it was a dead simple math fix. I did it in five and the response I got was "we've never had a woman complete the test."

That was enough for me to know I don't want to work there.

Good luck, and please please tell me if I can help you fix questions.
