A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.
Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.
RULES:
- Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

Except that current pope has been working with that org for a number of years and is a known quantity vs. some outside guy you're bringing in from the cold. A nice try at an analogy, but it doesn't quite stack up.
Except you still don't need 5 rounds of interviews since interviews don't show how hardworking someone is, or even their knowledge. They are a shitty test and a half an hour of conversation. Having more rounds just makes a statememt about your org, which says "we saw how google drills people, we'll do the same, offer shitty pay and expect good quality engineers to appear magically".
I’m a lazy bastard but I’m damn good at interviews. I’ve been hired on as a manager at two different places only for me and them to realize it was a terrible, terrible mistake.
I have the skills, I’m just too damn nice and before you know it everyone I’m “managing” is my buddy and the whole thing falls apart.
I never mean for it to happen, it’s partly just the culture here. Everyone is a close friend after a week deep in Appalachia. That’s just how we roll.
Anyways, bye, love y’all. See ya next comment. Be saaafe!
Nah, my place still requires you to apply as to not to be unfair. It still takes weeks.
