Nope, definitely not a call center. In fact only team leads and higher have phones.
> someone on HN needs to hire this guy,
I wish. GED + 15 years doing a job that doesn't translate to much of anything else doesn't help one's jobs prospects sadly.
- refulgentis 6y agoHate to inquire directly to your situation while you've been careful to avoid specifics about role, but: are you a programmer/coder/software engineer/whatever they call hackers these days? :)
- ryanmercer 6y agoSadly no, my LinkedIn is in the footer of the .com for anyone really curious though.
- mikestew 6y agoOT: holy smokes, you'd have to be in pretty bad shape not to be able to ride a bicycle from your house to my old house close to Cascade High School. Both are a long way from our current home of Seattle. Anyway, I worked industrial/mechanical jobs in that area back in the day and about my coworkers often wondered, "do you live like this at home?" Now I write software in a different part of the country and rarely (but no never) brush up against such problems. Hopefully, you can continue with your WFH and not be bothered with it, either.
- ryanmercer 6y agoMy wife is a teacher at Cascade MS!
- mikestew 6y agoExcellent, because if you doubt my story of living in the area, your wife can walk next door and see if the name of the track 3200m record holder matches my user name. It will also tell you how long ago it was that I lived there. :-) (Loooong time ago.) Anyway, best of luck with your current work situation and may it only improve.
- ryanmercer 6y agoI kid you not, she's one of the middle school track coaches haha.
