rick_h | morning | 12:36 |
brousch | good | 12:52 |
cmaloney | you | 12:53 |
cmaloney | are | 12:53 |
cmaloney | how | 12:53 |
cmaloney | ? | 12:53 |
rick_h | yay | 12:54 |
rick_h | friday | 12:54 |
rick_h | is | 12:54 |
rick_h | it | 12:54 |
rick_h | ! | 12:54 |
cmaloney | Heh | 12:54 |
cmaloney | https://www.python.org/jobs/2800/ | 13:39 |
cmaloney | About the Company | 13:39 |
cmaloney | Zuar is zuar. | 13:40 |
cmaloney | Well, I'm sold. | 13:40 |
cmaloney | Zuar is apparently the Father of Nethanel who was the head of the tribe of Issachar | 13:41 |
cmaloney | and is apparently funded with 10 people | 13:41 |
brousch | cmaloney: You're not on linkedin? | 13:41 |
cmaloney | brousch: no | 13:41 |
cmaloney | Is there a particular reason I need to be on LinkedIn, the classmates.com of work folks? | 13:42 |
brousch | Yes. It is good for networking and finding a job | 13:42 |
cmaloney | which tends to bring me more spam from self-appointed prognosticators and pundits of the industry? | 13:42 |
brousch | Don't join the silly groups | 13:43 |
cmaloney | wI really fail to see how linkedin is going to help with this | 13:43 |
cmaloney | since most of the folks that I know already know that I'm unemployable. | 13:43 |
brousch | Recruiters also scrape it, which is annoying when you're working, but pretty nice when you're looking | 13:44 |
brousch | I found setting my status to looking or not actually makes a difference there | 13:45 |
cmaloney | hurm | 13:45 |
cmaloney | So I can get more recruiters (who usually don't understand what it is that I do) throwing me at more companies that don't like dealing with recruiters | 13:46 |
cmaloney | sounds like a net win to me. :) | 13:46 |
brousch | Yes, 90% of it will be useless, but there are some opportunities | 13:47 |
cmaloney | Oh nice, they want my phone number | 13:47 |
cmaloney | Fine. I'm setting up fucking linkedin | 13:49 |
cmaloney | and I'm not happy about it | 13:49 |
cmaloney | If I start getting recruiter phone calls I will be even less happy | 13:50 |
cmaloney | I have a bad feeling about this. I already had linkedin.com set to REJECT on my mail server | 13:53 |
brousch | I don't think I've ever gotten a phone call | 13:59 |
brousch | You should be able to set visibility on those things | 13:59 |
brousch | But hey, maybe you won't have to worry about a job for long. http://woodtv.com/2017/10/06/trump-during-photo-shoot-talks-of-calm-before-the-storm/ | 14:00 |
cmaloney | brousch: I'm not gonna lie: that is part of the game plan | 14:01 |
brousch | Can you fly a drone? | 14:02 |
cmaloney | No, I'm looking forward to getting more use out of the eclipse glasses. | 14:03 |
cmaloney | brousch: I apologize for being surly. | 14:05 |
brousch | That's OK. I know you're frustrated | 14:06 |
cmaloney | Yeah, but I shouldn't take it out on friends | 14:06 |
brousch | And it sucks to have to give up privacy for any reason | 14:06 |
cmaloney | I've just never found any use for LinkedIN | 14:08 |
brousch | I wonder what linkedin will do considering you don't use yahoo/gmail/hotmail | 14:08 |
brousch | It likes to scrape my contacts out of gmail | 14:08 |
brousch | I'm definitely not suggesting you do so, but have you tried any of the code for money sites? | 14:13 |
cmaloney | brousch: No, I haven't. | 14:41 |
cmaloney | Partially because I'm not sure how that works during tax time | 14:42 |
* cmaloney needs to get an accountant. | 14:42 | |
jrwren | yay friday | 14:59 |
jrwren | its income that you must claim. Once it crosses the 3000 mark they have to 1099 you, so you'll get that. | 15:00 |
jrwren | not much more to it than that, AFAIK? | 15:00 |
jrwren | reading IRS pubs is cheaper than an accountant. ;) | 15:00 |
jrwren | and I'm a cheap SOB | 15:00 |
cmaloney | heh | 15:01 |
greg-g | yeah, I had a couple 1099s one year, was not bad | 16:28 |
cmaloney | Yeah, I think that's one approach | 16:30 |
cmaloney | I guess I need to reframe this as "If he worst problem I have is how to file my taxes then that's a nice problem to have" | 16:30 |
greg-g | word | 16:44 |
greg-g | oh man, the coffee shop is playing what sounds like a 90s Pandora station, and Bush's Glycerine just came on | 21:25 |
greg-g | so many angsty middle school nights listening to that | 21:25 |
rick_h | greg-g: <3 | 22:27 |
cmaloney | I think that is my second least-favorite 1990s song | 23:46 |
cmaloney | the first being No Rain by Blind Melon | 23:46 |
cmaloney | And not that they're bad, but that they became sonic furniture because of their ubiquity | 23:46 |
