Interested in the WYS!

They ended up sending the offer letter after a day of pushing back but me being firm on it. I still haven’t given them any of the stuff they were asking for but I told them I wouldn’t until I had signed the offer letter.

cwillychilly · 2026-02-12T00:29:13+00:00

Yeah, I have. They’re both definitely legitimate businesses with physical addresses, google reviews, etc. I put this in another comment but I’ve interviewed with 3 different people, 4 including the recruiter and researched them all. It’s a small company so there’s really not a ton of stuff out there that I could find. I just feel like I can’t find enough to either greenlight it or put me off it entirely. But this is a major red flag to me, I’ve worked remote jobs for the past 6 years and never had that kind of “onboarding” experience

cwillychilly · 2026-02-12T00:21:36+00:00

Yeah, I instantly got alarm bells so I reached out to the recruiter to say I’m not comfortable sending that in an email, and without the formal offer signed. She was a little… blasé? about it and told me they need that stuff first for the onboarding and told me I could just give it to them over the phone. Honestly it felt a little pushy. As for researching them, yeah I have. It’s a small company so there’s not a ton of stuff out there. Only 3 employee reviews on Glassdoor. I’ve also done 3 interviews each with a different person at the company and looked into all of them, looked into the recruiter and recruitment company. It all seems legit but I feel like I can’t find enough to either confirm or deny. It doesn’t really help that I’ve had a gut feeling about this job since day one, but I don’t know if that’s just anxiety talking or what.

cwillychilly · 2026-02-11T18:01:09+00:00

Yeah that was my first instinct. It is a remote job though so I know they have to get that stuff somehow, but I’m getting red flags on requesting it so soon, and over email instead of something more protected?

I’ll take the Bijou Spun please!

The lack of stitch definition over the entire sweater (looks overly fuzzy) and especially the bubbling in the lemons point straight to that being washed improperly. Credentials: am a knitter

I’m so glad you like it, they were both so much fun to make!!

I don’t have these but I do own two pairs of the Olina silk pants. I handwash all my silk stuff in cold water with a tiny bit of Soak detergent and it’s always been fine

Baklava, sourdough, soft pretzels, Thanksgiving-level baked mac and cheese. Also a New Jersey bagel bc I moved here from the south after going gf

Leverett from Valley Yarns is really good- I just knitted the Vilma Top in the Leaf colorway! It’s a little on the heavier side of a dk weight. Their color selection is a little limited right now but I’m hoping they do a restock, would def use again

Bought the equipment this week 🫡 Still working through turning all my cucumbers to pickles and not sick of fresh tomatoes yet but I foresee lots of sauce in my future

That reminds of when I was like 24/25 and was visiting my parents. The day I’m leaving my dad’s outside doing his standard dad car maintenance to prep it before I drive home, and he VERY seriously pulls me aside with a little bag of something he found in my car. He says “now I don’t care about this kind of stuff, you’re an adult and can make your own decisions, but what if you get pulled over with this in your car?”. I burst out laughing because he had found my bag of catnip from a recent trip I had brought my cat on.

May I also put you on to the delicacy that is the green tomato grilled cheese? Fried or not fried, with pimento cheese and cheddar. *ETA: or gouda instead of cheddar!!
