+: First round phone screen with Danube tomorrow. Direct hire position, with a semi-decent company that seems to treat their employees with decently hidden contempt.
0: Nervous/anxious about first round phone interview tomorrow. Pretty sure I can knock a passing percentage of the technical questions, but I'm really worried about the social portion of the interview. I can't answer "why do you want to work here?" with "cause it's not a contrract and i like not starving"

@kelseyhusky you got this! And that first part, rephrased slightly is a good “I want to be here in a year- or four!”

-: Really not wanting to stay at my current job means i'm putting pressure and hope on this interview going well, which likely means i will tank it. I'd feel better if I thought studying or flash carding would help.
+/0: Flying out this weekend for my little cousins graduation. She's graduating from the same college i got kicked out of 10 years ago, which is its own brand of family drama that I've kind of ignored cause i'm doing okay now, but history is a still a thing.
