A piece of advice, I would still dress up for the interview. I did a Skype interview years ago and the interviewer asked me to stand up. You never know, but I assume you want this job so why not be prepared ;)


Guess I got lucky that wasn't part of mine, rofl.

Lmao. I was so excited to not wear pants but my father, who has been interviewing people for as long as I've been alive, told me to dress like a normal interview. One of the few times I actually listened too.

Yeah my dad is very good with interviews, resume building, all that stuff. He gave me the same advice, dress nice like I would for a normal interview and pick a room that isnt too busy/shows to much about myself. Like my room is covered in sports memorabilia, he said to use a plain room or come over and use his office.

So I've got Comcast and it came with HBO and Streampix, had this combo for about 2-3 years. Well one day during the NFL playoffs my TV cut out on me for like 10 mins, complete darkness on TV side, so I call em and after we talked they gave me STARZ for 3 months and credited my bill...Well I go to put a movie on, STARZ movie, way after the 3 month freebie, and it says it's free...so I go to the STARZ channel and it's not included in my subscription.


So as long as the show/movie is in the "On Demand" area I get it free. Thank you Comcast for somehow fucking up and not charging me.

That's a good point too. My entire apartment is covered with Packer swag so I guess it wouldn't matter, but my desktop is facing a giant Packer flag and the people that interviewed me commented on it immediately. The VP of the company was a Bears fan.

My room is filled with posters of Zachary Quinto lounging in his underwear, so I covered it up with posters of Chris Pine instead to exude a sense of leadership

I don't like how much adulting is happening in here or life. I wanna go back to being 16. Drinking in the woods all weekend. Football practice and Halo all there was to worry about during the week. I miss it.

Same, but I like to think of this period as the time right before adult playtime begins. Finding a new job that pays better and has a better track to where I want to be in a few years is the step before I take my trip to Ireland, help my best friend buyout a current season ticket holder and go salmon fishing in Alaska.

Adult playtime is much better, Edward.
