I'm starting my first full-time software engineering job on the 13th! Gonna be working for Build-a-Sign. I'm really excited; the people seem cool and it sounds like they ACTUALLY have a lot of interesting stuff to work on. The second part surprised me. I kinda figured it'd be website maintenance type stuff, but it's all about helping the company maximize its profits by minimizing waste and optimizing various things.

The pay's pretty good, the benefits are awesome, and it's a 3-minute drive from my condo. I can't wait :D

The proximity IS amazing. I woke up at 8:55 for a 9:00 interview and briskly got prepared and arrived a minute late.

I'll probably be doing the in-house stuff, judging by how the interviews went. I did better on algorithmic questions than networking/database questions. I'll probably be working on the software that schedules the printing etc. so that you don't have workers standing around twiddling their thumbs while waiting for a job to finish. It's basically a really big task scheduling problem :D

Congratulations. I'd buy you a celebratory hooker, but since you're the one with the job, you'll have to pay. :-P

If I didn't have a job I'd be homeless

Not all of us get free money like you

You woke up 5 minutes before your interview...?

Do you not own an alarm?

I own one and set it for 8 and stayed in bed for a little while and passed out and woke up at 8:55.

Besides, I knew where the office was and it was really close, and I could go like 50 all the way there.
