Quite literally. Four loving days, not even enough time to get my bearings, and I get this poo poo. :^| Here's to hoping I don't ride a motorcycle across a few states to a loving couch in SF or something. How am I supposed to loving automagically know, immediately, how a project I am touching for the first time hosed up script inclusions for datepicker  Why did you tell me to ask questions and collaborate?

ROFL no. I have an AA. At the end of my BSc I got a "mom got terminal cancer" dropout and just started working full time so she'd die slightly less miserably since medicare doesn't cover the poo poo that makes chemo not kill you, just chemo. I have almost 6 years of experience  Also this is the "offer letter"   What can I do? Also yes their address is literally "6666" Space Whale fucked around with this message at 01:07 on May 18, 2018 |

I guess learning Java build poo poo and the stream api vs .net build poo poo and linq might make someone wrinkle a nose? I wouldn't mind python if I have to plang it up. Technically I've used node for automated JS web stuff so I've "done node,". Golang would be the bees knees. I also have a weird affection for C.

idk, maybe make a profile on StackOverflow if you don't have one yet. i've actually had pretty positive responses from mine (but no offers lol) and there seem to be a decent number of jobs in Denver on there edit: also lying through your teeth about having family in the area works, thanks for the advice Shaman Linavi fucked around with this message at 21:13 on May 18, 2018 |

how long do y’all wait between when someone was supposed to get back to you and a follow up? recruiter was supposed to get back to me Friday with some details she didn’t have at the time but nothing. don’t want to just immediately harass, but I kinda need to know the answers.

recruiter asked me what it would take for me to take a role. the answer is obviously $$$, but is there a way to phrase that more professionally?

Space Whale posted:"Sorry, we forgot to realize you told us you're rusty on poo poo you haven't done in years, so bye" sometimes I think companies are too big for their britches. they think they’re hot poo poo who only want to hire the best but really, by and large they’re useless gits who can’t tell their rear end from a home in the ground and then they turn around and get mad when they can’t find a “perfect pick” and the closest ones to that are missing X technology or have Y-2 years of experience it’d be a seller’s market if companies weren’t rip-poo poo stupid, as it is now we have to beg for table scraps from idiot startups who barely make enough to cover the electric bills
