  • I had a weird dream last night...

    Ok, as many of you know, I write software for a living.

    Well, last night I had the following dream.

    --------------------------

    I'd been offered a position through a technical recruiting firm. It met my criteria, and I'd be doing something I really enjoyed, so I accepted, and put in my resignation at my (current) job.

    Well, Day 1 of the new job comes, and I show up, and it's VASTLY different than what I'm told. The pay, the actual work I'd be doing, everything. To the point that I was basically lied to about everything except the actual location of the job.

    At that point, I felt stuck, because I didn't feel like I could get my "old" job back, but I was really mad at the recruiter, and mad at the new position.

    --------------------------

    It was very strange. I emailed my wife that I "had a weird-@$$ dream last night". She asked, "Weird bad, or just weird?"

    I don't know how to classify it, so I said, "For now, just weird."

    Considering your profession, you should know by now that the demo frequently bears no resemblance to the finished product.
    Any fool can piss on the floor. It takes a talented SC to shit on the ceiling.

        I told my wife about the dream. She said "So it was 'weird bad'..."
