I haven’t done many interviews and maybe my stories are weak but I don’t know. I fail miserably during behavioral rounds. For the life of me I can’t figure out how to answer precisely and eventually end up generalizing it. Is this simply a lack of practice? I usually fail on follow ups. Do you all ...Read more
Sometimes I think I'm done with dating and finding a nice girl and this is one of those times. Sorry in advance for the inane rant. I met a great girl who was easy to talk to, we had a lot in common and we shared a lot of jokes and I felt like she was in my same wavelength. I really thought was the...Read more
Aggregated inflation is 20% over the last 3 years. If your NW and TC didn't beat 20% you lost money. Did you beat? How much did you beat by in %? I lost both the TC and NW battles. 200K TC
Move to low col for a girl? Would you do this? (Not only for girl, but mainly for her. Other reasons are nightlife, hobbies, wlb, culture) Assume job is easy going and low stress. No overtime or oncall. Just enough tc to live day to day on. Assume you have enough savings alone for a house there and...Read more
Seriously, what does Netflix look at when reviewing job applications? Most, if not all, of the existing employees have previously worked at no-name companies that are at best tier-3 or tier-4. No shade on that. But I have -except once in the past- never been able to get a call back from them. Even ...Read more

Palestinians don't want peace, just vengeance. Mostly for Jews having the audacity to buy land near them. They keep calling it theirs but it was the Ottomans and the British before they finally got an independent country. It's clear that they have never wanted to move forward as equals and never wil...Read more
Took a look at my friends Hinge and there’s a lot of guys with great or decent profiles. I was going through her likes with her and tbh I feel like it’s really hard to know who is a good fit (thinking for myself hypothetically - I’m in a relationship). Like if the guy is decent looking and prompts ...Read more
"Thank you for your response. Could you please provide your performance improvement plan? Please also provide any documentation confirming your reason for leaving like a termination letter." what do I tell them lol, I don't even think I was given a PIP plan. #fidelity#pip#amazon
Status is vague and unhelpful, no one knows what year my application will process. Susan is currently putting my medium pan crusted pizza in the oven. I know down to the minute when it will be done. TC 110k L63 Redmond

Do you think the government is good at spending money? “This is a 1,600-foot-long high-speed rail bridge to nowhere that costs $11 billion.” https://x.com/ajtourville/status/1787239959713272067?s=46&t=_UGZX58S_1YZ6EvADUNwPA

Asking this question in good faith. When I joined Amazon a few years ago, there was a healthy mix. Fast forward a few years, except for me (a white girl) and a Hispanic guy, the rest of my team (12 folks) is Indian. A few of the things they do are borderline unprofessional and show a clannish minds...Read more
