My favorite recruiter just said "I don't want to keep you" Keep me from what? I'm high as balls on a wednesday morning spamming my resume places. Talk me up bro.

Tech bro culture is the worst My "final interview" with a company I'm applying at is, what they call, the "Beer Test" Basically a get to know you with the team sort of virtual meeting? But. They call it the "Beer Test" and assure me I don't have to "drink beer" during the beer test.

Corla Plankun posted:woof. i hope it pays well because that sounds toxic as hell Yeah. I'm nervous but it otherwise sounds like a great job. I do appreciate getting to meet people before accepting an offer though. Just... Beer test? Really? Sounds too straight for my gay rear end. Give me a weed test instead.

Just got misgendered twice in the same interview after telling the interviewer I'm more interested in being treated like a person and then the tech stack I write code in. So that's how my day is going.

"Beer Test" turned out to be extremely gay And I mean that as a great thing. It was a great culture check and I really hope I get a job offer tomorrow. One of the interviewers was a trans woman embedded software engineer and that is badass as hell.

Beer Test turned into a REALLY GOOD job offer  Between being paid out my vacation time, the severance package I reluctantly signed, and getting a offer within 3 weeks I think I'm ending up slightly ahead. Plus the new job pays more than the old job!I'm so excited. Basically the best news I could have gotten today. Now I just have to decide what to do about the remaining interviews I have lined up, and a possible second offer from another company. Feels good though.

I just got home from what is hopefully my last gender related surgery. Feels great to be home in my own bed cuddling my kitties.
