- ev1 4y agothis was real weird behaviour to encounter as an IC. pre pandemic I ran into a director from another org that I knew from playing MMOs with, had a half hour chat during lunch with some picking of brains for a weird endgame raid strategy and afterward my manager pulled me aside and was like "whats happening is everything ok?? i saw you having a long meeting with a director in another org??"
