[12:05] <cmaloney> morning
[12:06] <mrgoodcat> morning
[12:22] <brousch__> Happy Monday
[12:29] <rick_h> Morning
[12:43] <brousch__> My son caught a cold on the last weekend of spring break.
[12:49] <jrwren> thanks murphy
[13:16] <brousch__> Yeah, we spent the last 2 days of great weather in the house
[13:19] <jrwren> oh... :(  that sucks.
[13:19] <rick_h> yea, was nice to get to walk the boy to school this morning
[13:21] <jrwren> oh nice!
[13:39] <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
[13:53] <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
[14:38] <rick_h> ok wow, now I wish I hadn't watched that united fiasco video...
[14:39] <brousch__> eh?
[14:40] <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
[14:44] <brousch__> Wow
[14:44] <brousch__> I would be so pissed if I missed a flight because it was overbooked
[14:45] <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
[14:47] <cmaloney> There's the "We fucked up, here's a voucher" approach
[14:47] <cmaloney> and there's the "We're assholes" approach
[14:48] <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
[14:49] <cmaloney> Yeah, I'm glad my last flight was on Delta.
[14:50] <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 :(
[14:52] <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
[14:54] <brousch__> So the dog is strangling you because you are wearing Axe?
[14:54] <cmaloney> That took some effort to misread didn't it? :)
[15:06] <brousch__> Yes
[15:55] <cmaloney> Company that I applied to is apparently asking for 5+ years of NodeJS experience.
[15:55] <cmaloney> good luck with that.
[15:56] <Zimdale> We have a guy apply that claimed he had 11 years of Angular
[15:57] <cmaloney> Is there another tech called "Angular" that isn't AngularJs?
[15:59] <Zimdale> not that I know of
[15:59] <Zimdale> He hardly spoke english so I am pretty sure the recruiter was just an ass
[16:01] <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
[16:02] <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
[16:03] <cmaloney> Yeah, no joke
[16:08] <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
[16:10] <Zimdale> That's why I always prefer internal recruiters
[16:11] <Zimdale> It's less playing the numbers game and they can usually test for culture

[19:52] <Zimdale> haha
[19:53] <brousch__> The tail disturbs me
[19:54] <cmaloney> heh
