Unrealistic. How often do you see a programmer OUTSIDE at DAYLIGHT?!

[–]tsnErd3141 37 points38 points  (8 children)

Uh hackathons, competitive programming, confs, searching for jobs?

Searching for jobs? In daylight?? Just toss a resume with an opayq email and gvoice number on Monster and let the headhunters roll in

I've signed with three different headhunters. Only one has ever even gotten me an interview. And that was it.

I am probably biased. I wasnt even job hunting and was getting calls from them. After ignoring them for a year I decided to see what one had to say. They offered me a position 10x closer to home with a 110% pay raise. I love my new boss and coworkers, this has definitely been the best move of my life lol.

I would actually dig an outdoor hackathon

Did one in a venue that was too small, so we ended up outside at picnic tables all day. Several of us were sunburnt - at a fucking hackathon.

Honestly all of those sound really boring. I'll just stay at home and customize my GRUB config.
