    For 350-450K I'd dress in drag or go full nude.

    If I went full nude, barf bags would need to be supplied to the others. :-D

      I actually interviewed for this job. Things went really well right up to the end where I was told that I would have to wear a tie on office days. I walked out and didn't look back.

              Sounds like too much work to me. You have to be there when needed. Terribly intrusive. I mean, sure, I have to be here every day, but it's rare that I'm needed. Being needed is far more hype than its worth. :laugh:

                  Stop your limited thinking. How're you going to get ahead like that? I personally worked on the Internet __before__ it was created. We used typewriters and shuffled the papers amongst ourselves.

                    Nothing like a little arrogance to fuel a new startup! Unfortunately, literally everyone thinks they have the next big thing; yet they never actually do. Good luck to the poor sap that gets suckered by this non-sense!

                        That's what the other three programmers are for. Three programmers are roughly equivalent to 99 marketers by my calculations. Sure there's a little bit of slack, but I'm confident if we pull together we can make up the difference!

                            I thought that was the idea of "interview questions" articles? You learn 'em, the interviewer asks 'em, you parrot them back, you get the job! So obviously only the real, top quality, most experienceder of the experienciest, bestest of the bestest programmers would read them. :laugh: [OT] Google would appear to believe that "experienceder" is a real word, but "experienciest" isn't...

                                  Wait, I was a teenager earlier this year, and have been programming for 3 years. I have slight knowledge of all of these, and I guess that would make me an expert. Where do I sign up?
