What about us resonated with you?

Your offer to pay me.

HOW DARE YOU ASK FOR COMFORT IN YOUR ONLY ONE LIFE???!!

I couldn’t give less of a fuck about any company or their “projects”, selling a product is not a mission to empower users and help the world or some bullshit like that.

I care about what work I do. I tend to ask about the project at the end of the technical round.
The HR is not going to hear about that.

I am not interested in the company’s history, their mission/vision and other propaganda.
All I need to know about the company is, if they will actually pay me on time for the work I have done and that they are not going-under and defaulting on payments.

And since I do care about the work that I do, it matters to me, what will become of the project after the company gets the worth out of it.
And that is where all big-names fail miserably.

You are selling a smartphone/ laptop/ a cloud connected camera/ any product that uses multiple components with their own use?
At the end of support period, you are to openly distribute the documentation for all components.
That way, a camera out of an old smartphone/laptop won’t require reverse engineering to be reused with a Pi or sth.
A monitor screen out of a laptop can be used as another monitor, without having to buy another controller from a shady site (yeah, I call AliExpress, a shady site) and the existing eDP controller can be reused, without requiring an Oscilloscope.
When your web-service goes down, the user can make their own interfacer and use the camera on their personal cloud.

I like reading the comments more than the post itself

Jesus Christ, yes, I am a comfort hunter. You think I get up at the ass crack of dawn every day for fun? You think I want to push buttons on a computer all day because I’m just weirdly into it?

No! I do this shit because I have to!

Fucking hell. I’ve already accepted that I have to make your company money if I want to live in a house. For the love of all that is good in this world, PLEASE do not make me pretend to like it. I’m already weirded out that you’re so into it.

Comfort hunter is a very snobbish and entitled way to refer to someone offering their time and effort to you.

And wait, was the 2nd post ‘liked’ by the first poster?

He forgot the red flag emoji.

So can we just be honest and agree to coexist in a state of mutually despising each other?

HR: I’m sorry, that’s not our policy.

Uno beeeoootttttchhhh. You know, everything’s consolidating. There are very few mid-sized companies anymore. It’s funny seeing the managerial class dig their own grave. Everybody thinks everybody’s gonna leave everyone with the bag. Justice is always served. Don’t have kids.
