The dark web.....isn't that where all the drug dealers and prostitutes hang out? Sounds scary.

From what I've heard, yes. But as you are aware, there must be a balance to all that darkness...and that comes in the form of the shining beacon of those ghost writers. So amongst all the bad, there is some good - these humble yet wonderful ghost writers hang out here as their ultimate goal is to not draw attention to themselves.

Too late sir. Already done. I didn't trust the link originally so I used my work computer to check it out, just to be on the safe side. Nothing harmful at all. i entered my corporate email address to have them send me more info. Oddly enough, they are sending me some phish at least that's what our network admin stated in an email and he seemed to be upset about it.
I must be out of the loop. I didn't realize the hip way of spelling fish was with a ph now. Guess it's kinda like being phat. I'll be sure and let the admins and manager know that it should be spelled phired so they know in the future. |

We're in the age of the "open plan" workspace (which sucks fecal-matter-encrusted donkey scrotum for any sort of technical work) where there are very few offices or even cubes. Of course the bosses all have offices. They use the excuse that they have conversations about sensitive and confidential topics and need to be able to close a door. Yeah...whatever. I work almost 100% remote now, so they can set up shop in a stockyards for all I give a shit.

I'm actually in discussion regarding a new position that could potentially result in 2 direct hires to work under me. Once something comes to fruition, I'll get in touch with you.

Consider me a code monkey. Not the case in reality though. I come from a sales management background. I clearly have the gift of gab but in my current environment, yeah.....I'd rather not talk to my co-workers. I miss having good conversation. This explains why I spend/spent much of day on here.

Actually, societal norms are the only thing preventing that. If you ignore them, there are no barriers to doing so. You should consider it - I bet it is a freeing feeling.

In most of those open plan shops, everyone wears headphones or earbuds all day. And nobody talks to anyone else, because they're all desperate for quiet and calm. As a side effect of the lack of privacy, the shitter stalls in bathrooms were always full. And you never smelled shit, which is a dead giveaway. They weren't shitting. They were texting, or reading email, or otherwise fucking around on their phones. If you actually had to take a shit, it wasn't uncommon for it to take 1/2-hour just to find an open stall. I always headed for the 5th floor because it was predominantly women who worked on that floor.

Last I heard, the application we built was generating $80MM a month in revenue. That's some pretty good ROI, right there.
