Its fascinating because you see people get new jobs all the time but you never really know how many they applied for. I'm still not sure if my colleagues just apply for a few jobs they want and get them or apply for 100 and get just on

I'm seeing this more often, esp like 3x cheaper it hurts my head. For 120% less I'm thinking 100/220= it uses 45% of the memory it used to.
