This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I cycle to work and never get lunch from the restaurants nearby. Can I WFH then?

I did quit my last job a few days after they required me to do a multi hour train commute on a regular basis. Fuck that. If I can't walk/ride I don't want it. I do feel a little bad for the dev who is still there, I was the only one keeping a wave of stupid 1st line questions going his way each day.

Oh well, new job pays more and I can cycle to work easily. Better work environment too.

I ditched my shitty corporate gig for a much nicer one a couple miles from home, better benefits too. I don't usually work from home, but they will let me if the need arises. These in person demanding corpo clowns insisting people take horrible commutes can fuck allll the way off.
