Imagine applying for a job as a backend engineer and not knowing, based on the job posting/qualifications needed that they were a Windows shop.

Or just imagine generating this fake Gmail in Gemini or ChatGPT and posting it to farm the rage.

    I applied to a (among other techs) nodejs position for a finance company. I asked 5 times in all interviews if it's ok to run linux, just to make sure.

    they said yes, and after signing the contract, I was send the instructions via email and company laptop was shipping. In the instructions, I was supposed to work through some remote desktop on a windows machine. fuck me

    I instantly resigned, one day before starting.I refused the parcel so it went back to the mothership without me even touching the box
