Robo Hobo Homo #081

My interview at the answering service went really well. I don't really know how to describe it. My boss seemed reserved and socially anxious, something I could identify with.

He also brought in another employee, asked for her input pretty regularly, and seemed to have a professional, open relationship with her. She continued to provide incisive additions and questions throughout the interview.

We dispensed with the social pleasantries pretty quickly and got down to brass tacks pretty. I'm never really sure in interviews how much is social pretext and how much is actual interview, so I was pretty happy to talk job duties, work schedules, technical backgrounds, and pay rates frankly and openly.

When he asked when I could start I offered--as a show of good faith--that night.

He said, “is eleven tonight okay?”
