I'm officially Simon. Yay? Lol
Had an interview this morning which went ok I think. Will find out if I go to the next stage tomorrow.
I am both amused and irritated. Diversity is massive in IT. Until very recently, I was the only person in my team actually born in Australia. Now 2/13 of us were born here.
Whoever is hiring IT people should be able to cope with your name.
Simon rules 🤘
Simon says "hire me" lol
I suddenly want to watch Die Hard 3 now.
You got this Simon! I'm cheering for you!!!! You should be so proud of yourself! 💜💜💜
Thank you ❤️ Just finished one of those dumb aptitude tests for another job. So silly.
I loathe those things, such pseudo-science.
They're so fucking stupid. It's obvious what they want to hear. Just pepper it with a lot "I'm a bit different" type answers and there you go
"If you have one bucket that contains 2 gallons and another bucket that contains 7 gallons, how many buckets do you have?”
Oh oh I know this one! 9!
