Re: Finding a job sucks thread

So, I got past all my previous interviews, but now for both jobs, I have more interviews. OMG, this is getting silly. One is to talk to the CEO. I get that they want the engineers to be in on the mission of the company, but if they know they want to hire me and I know I would work there, this is ju...

Re: Finding a job sucks thread

No one is going to blame you for looking for a new job. If it comes up that you were being let go, well, things were toxic and you felt you were getting pushed out, weren't you? No one is going to ask you to go into detail. In fact, I would play it off as casual as possible. The trick is that it's ...

Re: Finding a job sucks thread

Ugh. I had hoped that I would not have to be looking about now. My supervisor turned out to be fairly dishonest about some things, and now I have to figure out how to answer "Why did you leave (my most recent company)?" when the honest answer is "Because I was put on a performance im...

Re: Finding a job sucks thread

Just found out about an hour and a half ago that I'm being fired come Monday. I imagine I'll be posting to this thread a lot. Sorry to hear that.

The scenes where Andrew Scott pulls off his little cons while he is constantly on the verge of getting caught are great. But the sh...

Re: Pitchfork Hit With Layoffs, Restructuring Under ... GQ?

I’ll add that the decline of the AV Club bummed me out most of all. (It should win the Rod Stewart Award for Worst Fall from a High Peak.) Never let it be said that I missed an opportunity to shit on the new AV Club ; here is former contributor Scott Tobias sharing the latest idiocy involving that ...

Re: TV Dome: Tenacious D vs. Garfunkel and Oates vs. The Flight of the Conchords

I prefer the dry kiwi thing over Jack Black's living cartoon exuberance. Although I can't hate him, broad as his act is. Haven't seen/heard Garfunkel and Oates so there are some heavy waffles here. That's my vote as well. The Garfunkel and Oates show had its moments, though. I'd embed a YouTube cli...
