mrgoodcat | morning | 12:06 |
brousch__ | Happy Monday | 12:22 |
rick_h | Morning | 12:29 |
brousch__ | My son caught a cold on the last weekend of spring break. | 12:43 |
jrwren | thanks murphy | 12:49 |
brousch__ | Yeah, we spent the last 2 days of great weather in the house | 13:16 |
jrwren | oh... :( that sucks. | 13:19 |
rick_h | yea, was nice to get to walk the boy to school this morning | 13:19 |
jrwren | oh nice! | 13:21 |
brousch__ | I should try that. We're about 1/4 mile as the crow flies, but 3/4 to 3 miles depending on how flooded the swamp is | 13:39 |
rick_h | heh, yea. It's a little under a mile each way. So makes for a couple of good 20min walks there/back I try to get away from the computer when I can | 13:53 |
rick_h | and if we can ride bikes it's fast | 13:53 |
cmaloney | nice | 13:53 |
rick_h | ok wow, now I wish I hadn't watched that united fiasco video... | 14:38 |
brousch__ | eh? | 14:39 |
rick_h | twitter is alight with condemnation for the united removal of a passenger from the plane they overbooked. | 14:40 |
rick_h | https://twitter.com/JayseDavid/status/851223662976004096 is the latest version to come across my feed | 14:40 |
brousch__ | Wow | 14:44 |
brousch__ | I would be so pissed if I missed a flight because it was overbooked | 14:44 |
rick_h | well there's that but this is they let you on the plane, sit into a seat, and then dragged you off? | 14:45 |
cmaloney | Seriously, that's some shit | 14:45 |
cmaloney | And they wonder why people don't want to fly anymore | 14:45 |
cmaloney | There's the "We fucked up, here's a voucher" approach | 14:47 |
cmaloney | and there's the "We're assholes" approach | 14:47 |
rick_h | not to be all "thank goodness *I* fly Delta" but https://www.forbes.com/sites/laurabegleybloom/2017/04/09/why-delta-air-lines-paid-me-11000-not-to-fly-to-florida-this-weekend/#7fb60a714de1 | 14:48 |
cmaloney | Yeah, I'm glad my last flight was on Delta. | 14:49 |
Zimdale | I dunno, our CEO was stuck in LAX for 3+ days this weekend because Delta's clusterfuck. He had to just go buy a ticket for a different airline. | 14:50 |
Zimdale | Got there thursday and ended up flying out through soutwest sunday | 14:50 |
Zimdale | southwest* | 14:50 |
cmaloney | Wow | 14:50 |
cmaloney | That's awful | 14:50 |
Zimdale | #allAirlinesSuck :( | 14:50 |
cmaloney | I think today is trying to killme | 14:52 |
cmaloney | Sitting in the cafe over at Macomb | 14:52 |
cmaloney | and between the service dog and Axe body spray I'm going to asphyxiate | 14:52 |
brousch__ | So the dog is strangling you because you are wearing Axe? | 14:54 |
cmaloney | That took some effort to misread didn't it? :) | 14:54 |
brousch__ | Yes | 15:06 |
cmaloney | Company that I applied to is apparently asking for 5+ years of NodeJS experience. | 15:55 |
cmaloney | good luck with that. | 15:55 |
Zimdale | We have a guy apply that claimed he had 11 years of Angular | 15:56 |
cmaloney | Is there another tech called "Angular" that isn't AngularJs? | 15:57 |
Zimdale | not that I know of | 15:59 |
Zimdale | He hardly spoke english so I am pretty sure the recruiter was just an ass | 15:59 |
cmaloney | Ugh. That sucks. | 16:01 |
Zimdale | Recruiter also told us he had 9/10 communication skills and we could hardly understand eachother with almost no comprehension | 16:01 |
Zimdale | I think they fired that recruiter after that though | 16:01 |
cmaloney | I feel bad for the dude. I wonder if he was coached into this position. | 16:02 |
Zimdale | yeah | 16:02 |
Zimdale | We had that a lot too with recruiters pushing jrs into sr interviews and stuff | 16:02 |
Zimdale | was just uncomfortable for everyone | 16:02 |
cmaloney | Yeah, no joke | 16:03 |
Zimdale | It's kind of difficult because if they were good enough to be able to accurately judge people they wouldn't be recruiters because they'd make more as devs | 16:08 |
cmaloney | or as dev managers | 16:08 |
Zimdale | That's why I always prefer internal recruiters | 16:10 |
Zimdale | It's less playing the numbers game and they can usually test for culture | 16:11 |

Zimdale | haha | 19:52 |
brousch__ | The tail disturbs me | 19:53 |
cmaloney | heh | 19:54 |
