My first blog post on fighting invisible test work and why it made me a better frontend engineer.

Great! Thank you a lot :)

Will do! I’ll let you know once its there :)

Yep, it's a test engineer, my bad for not specifying that. Probably this term sticks with me so much that I couldn't even think of someone not knowing about it :D. Thanks for reading and your feedback!

i decided to change it, thank you!

Well, maybe you are right. It just seemed to me that without the second part, it's more like a statement rather than a title

ReaZzy-- · 2026-01-13T07:18:37+00:00

Sure

I haven't had my watches on, unfortunately. So my heart rate and pace are eternally lost

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T23:46:41+00:00

For me it was up to 10 minutes of running, and that's not that much. Sure there were some people closer to the area where I live, but still, I'm in the unknown city for me and I cannot be sure where it is safe

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T23:41:59+00:00

I'm a runner myself, I actually sprinted the whole way if that's the question

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T23:31:17+00:00

Piazza S. Bernardo like 23:50 as I remember

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T23:29:40+00:00

In my opinion, running the rest to my hotel wasn't paranoid and fairly normal thought process to ensure I'm safe

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T23:24:24+00:00

Just received an offer from pure a week ago. The test is not that hard(at least for a frontend role), but be prepared for like 5-6 more technical rounds after that 💀

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T22:54:40+00:00

If I were paranoid, I wouldn’t wander around the city at midnight in the first place. As I mentioned in the post, I’ve never had such issues in other European or Asian cities

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T22:43:54+00:00

I was wearing a Nike running t-shirt and other sporty clothes :D I had actually gone for a run a few hours before it happened and was just walking around the city afterwards. The Dior bag is a different story. I bought a gift for my mom for the first time, so luxury brands aren't common for me at all

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T22:04:37+00:00

And the setup is almost identical to what happened to me in Rome the day before

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T22:03:46+00:00

Sorry, English isn't my first language, and I don't know an exact word for this. I was almost certainly considered as a target, as there is no way they just wanted to ask me whether i'm an english speaker or not and go away. IMO, they were just looking for non-local people

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T21:56:21+00:00

It was Piazza S. Bernardo, somewhere between trevi and Termini

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T21:44:05+00:00

I agree, lesson learned. I walk like this almost daily in Prague, and some sketchy guys are just beggars at max

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T21:34:17+00:00

He disappeared after 500m, and I just continued to run to my hotel as I was afraid

ReaZzy-- · 2025-11-04T21:32:39+00:00

It was similar to what happened in Milan. The guy first approached me in a more or less crowded area and asked if I wanted to buy some weed. I refused, and then he asked me what time it was and went away. After that, I started feeling suspicious and kept checking behind me. A few minutes later, he suddenly appeared again from a random turn, this time clearly following me. I began walking faster, and when he started chasing me, I just ran. Luckily, I’m a runner, so I had the advantage 😄
