without knowing their exact condition please refrain from being dicks medical conditions can be weird as gently caress. at least this person went to the doctors. two months ago if you told me there was a condition where a person will pluck their head bald including their eyebrows i wouldn’t believe you, but i’ve seen it as with my own eyes (it was a young lady too ).

TerminalRaptor posted:interview on friday went pretty well I thought, but I'm also pretty confident it's a no for me if they want to move forward. maybe it’s because i’m detached from your situation but your nontechnical red flags don’t look like red flags to me. parking validation? never seen a place that does that. you will get the employee parking later so it doesn’t matter. meeting the owner? are you a business partner, an investor, or a potential c level? no? then why do you expect to meet them even if they were free and bored. the guy was on vacation? it happens. unless they are a process heavy company they probably didn’t notice/care that the guy was on leave.

I'm going to listen to their recruiter and see what they say, but honestly I think I'm only doing it to gauge my value on the market. imagine becoming the boss of your lovely interviewer
