Toshiba is going to make an offer. Not too excited because of the police check, but still. It's a good sign that I'm interviewing ok!

Speaking of:

I had a phone call with a possible job this morning. I want you to picture every total fuckwit, arrogant and insecure IT person and this guy was it. Patronising as well.

He was hired 6 months ago and fired everyone and brought in his "own team". That is never, ever a good sign.

And i don't want to stereotype, but he kept talking about Linux 🤣

I said I appreciate it but I don't think we'd work well together lol
