Curious… Did they compensate you for your time? At some point that’s gotta cross some threshold, otherwise companies could have year-long “interview” sessions filled with 40-hour weekly interview questions and tasks.

What industry has four rounds and a 3.5 hour interview session? To me, that wreaks of incompetence. Unless you’re going to be the VP of something that’s just inconsiderate and wasteful. Even a senior dev position should take at most two hour sessions and a 30-min code practical.

My guess is it was some HR person’s whole job to “enhance hiring practices” and this is what they came up with. Probably got a promotion out of it for the great work they did. And they’ll probably get another one when they “streamline an inefficient hiring process” next year.

Ok, fellow society members: listen the fuck up. Driving is a team sport. Everyone is doing their best to get someplace safely. Working together is the only way it works well. When those among us decide the road is belong to them and that everyone and everything else is an obstacle to their happiness in their narcissistic little universe is when problems happen.

Back to OP… If you believe there are other human beings in the vehicles playing this game with you, all with the best intentions and working toward a common goal, then I think it is only natural that you’d start building empathic bonds with them. If on the other hand you’re a self centered dumb shit with an under developed empathy center in your brain you’ll look at this post and laugh at how dumb it sounds.

I’m glad to see in this thread my fellow lemmings creating relationships with strangers, if only between highway interchanges.

Have we stopped the trend of putting excessively large and unnecessary borders around social media re-posts? Please let it be so.

Fuck. I was having a moment.

Large undisclosed settlement in 3, 2, 1…

Insurance dropped it for weight loss. You lobbied the wrong groups, apparently. I guess the “excessive weight is a health crisis” lost out to the “excessive weight is a sign of a defective person”. Again.

JFC I almost spit my coffee across the table. It was closer than I’d like to admit.

Ten points to house Flappy Meats!

Holy trauma.

01111111 = true

11111111 = negative true = false

That was my first thought as well… That glare is a case study in deep seeded anger over having repressed one’s true being for a lifetime and then seeing others have what you thought wasn’t possible.
