interview thingy 

SO what came out:

Apparently my character is charming? I'm mostly one of those people who everyone likes, but nobody remembers their name.

Also I priced myself too high (well, they wanted me to say what I think my work is worth, not what they assume it is worth or anyone actually pays)

But what they need isn't what I do, there are methods to get it, but blegh.

Not really interested.

Also apparently you should put API knowledge into your resume nowadays?

I mean sure, I guess? It's just so simple I didn't even think of it honestly.

Like literally "I used the twitter API once", not designing one, just that you used one.

If you are unemployed and below 30 here you're forced on a course to learn how to make resumés and they seriously tried to convince me to put "I know how to use a coffee maker" on my CV... as an electronics engineer... there's a reason I refer to those things as idiot courses. ^-^;;

That's something he wanted to see there though, which is yeah

@maxinered
It is relevant if you're applying to a caféteria or something, but not as an engineer. Always take it with a grain of salt.

@ulvra I think I just put it in, to cover more stuff in my generic application

@maxinered
I think API is okay, it just reminded me of that ridiculous example.

@ulvra Pupper is a good pupper 💜
