ugggh ...
I could recap but why?
• I applied for paid internship/ extended interview / paid housing things for summer
(yes, with the same inc.)
• I will likely get offered at least one
• I will not want to go
• If I go, it will likely lead to a job in the bay area
• I am very happy playing mom/mentor to my "ducklings" as they've been dubbed.
It's the most enjoyable and satisfying thing of my life, with the exception of a time in New Mexico where this kid Devin Maurer designed a T-shirt with me.
It makes me happy as fuck to work with people on a level where they get shit, and I get shit, and we work well together. Training folks for technical things- they WILL work well with me because I've done some training with them. It's fucking SWEET. I just wish I got to do it all the time, instead of 4+ times a month.
Being creative/problem solving/etc. . . It's just better when there's someone else involved to enjoy success or struggle with.
You know, I even enjoy a little friendly fighting, sometimes.
If I left this, I would miss the company at work, and the mingling brain juice. It's like swapping spit but you don't have to worry about making anyone jealous.
(because everyone benefits)
so, I suppose this is where I'm at. Hello.
