Screening resumes today. One of them had the janky LaTeX font and immediately went into the selected pile. Thank the good lord for the gross and ugly LaTeX font helping me screen candidates.

After your interview, before leaving the building, always take a poo poo.

I have more tolerance for a messy codebase than a messy bathroom. YMMV

man i wish i had taken this advice

we didn't have our own bathroom, we were in an office park and the restrooms were shared between units, and there was some barimetric therapy center and also some kind of gastro-rehab center or SOMETHING in the building, and our shared restroom was like a massive disaster area 24/7.

it doesn't matter who the other tenants are

i've never had a shared-bathroom situation that wasn't a nightmare

a friend of mine works for a "startup" with what is generously termed "office space" inside of a building whose principal tenant is a halfway house

his major bathroom problem is junkies breaking in to steal poo poo and shoot up

so, you know, it's all relative i guess

Had the interview today. Crushed it, my interviewers were great, showed me around the offices, facility is great, tech stack seems good, work environment seems excellent, but they use GitLab for their version control :rip:

Also I'm really happy with my current job, I'm getting mentorship and moving up so I'm only planning on taking this job if they give me an obnoxious raise.

got an offer :toot: already at dece 6 figgies in nyc. this is +15% plus another 10-15% annual bonus on top. it's a solid offer for the position, not great. there's little doubt that it's much less of a shitshow organization than current employer.

only problem, it's in boston. that fills me with massive anxiety. i have until next week to decide if we're moving.
