But this is mostly a "hands off" position. So I just liason between a team of 32 engineers, stakeholders and C-level.
Quote:A "forward-deployed engineer" mindset, capable of discussing AI integration and implementation strategies with clients, rather than hands-on building.
But there is always a hidden catch in this case it might just be the tobacco thing though. However if there is truely 150k on the table I want to find out more.
On the other hand if I fumble another 150k job offer in a single year I'm not sure if I can cope

Just in case your forget it, you should write it on a yellow note and place it about 2 feet away from keypad.
People act offended when you just want to eat plain toast.

Meeting with the recruiter set for thursday.
To my surprise (and my PT) the training went great today. I was worried that after skipping on monday because of the hangover I would be out of it.
Overall despite being completely shitfaced and hungover every task this week has been completed. Including a launch for the corpos that was moved up because of the PHP2shell thing.
Planning another movie date for friday. Pretty much moved every chat in that direction to see who would bite.
This one played along well.
The recruiter also got back to me about the 100k role but as he expected it was more of a junior position so the 150k is the one we are going to focus on. Good news as that means I'm on their senior/director level pile. For this role they were already looking at candidates overseas but that's difficult as they had to be willing to learn Dutch and that gives me an edge in this process.
We got some reps in lets see if we can make any breakthroughs.

Recruiter is a cute Asian learning Dutch
Big company (65k+) started in Russia. No wait the US.
Actually a Belarusian founder.
Full transparancy tobacco industry some people might have ethical concerns
Alcohol too. Gaming. Ukrainian government.
150k is that my range
New role. Many east europeans very introvert. Do their work go home. Need someone to help build the team culture.
She likes the way I present myself.
They take a percentage if I'm hired. Will see if there is wiggle room.
Good for both of us
Round 1 passed.
2 more rounds.

between 9 and 10 am my line manager gave me an extremely interesting lecture on the civil war between africans and Caribbeans because Caribbean parents tell their kids that the africans sent them to the Caribbean, but there are some people in brazil who still worship the yoruba god he's attached to so he might go there for a holiday
There's a tribal god who is the tutelary deity of anger and when people get angry they often say 'oh I was possessed by so and so' and then everyones like ah fair play
I once had a boss who was a martial arts nutter. He was in his late 50s, had the top tier of whatever it is karate guys get and had been in competitions since he was a fetus. Every time we wanted a break we’d ask him about karate stuff because he’d go off on a 15 minute lecture. One day I asked him about some obscure shit I’d heard on a Wu Tang Clan album. His eyes lit up. It was like Xmas came early for him. 25 minutes explaining what Tiger style was. So I kept going back to my Wu albums to get references I could pull out whenever we wanted a fag break.

After some flirting, teasing and bickering she'll come to the beachclub tommorow.
I held my ground until the voice message
Crazy night folks
First I had the date with the singer from Bumble. It was aight but we both didn't feel a romantic connection after hanging out at the beach club like a perfect couple. I have to say though that keeping away from any family/private talk improved the vibe and experience a whole lot. When she left I didn't feel bad at all. We had a good time talking about music and things like that. It was odd that this is the first date originating from the gym bod pic that is consistently at #1.
I went to the pub after. Got hit on by an Austrian who was like "I'm so horny I have many straight friends... I hope you won't get angry", "you're straight right?", "sorry man but I just need like someone to cum into my mouth right now I would even pay for it"  I went back inside the pub and texted my bro about the new job offer as a distraction. The guy eventually walked back inside, ordered an uber home. Insisted that I take his number. Some part of me felt bad about rejecting this guy, I've been in his shoes. He wanted to suck my dick and offered pay for it. Like damn bro.
After texting with my brother I walked to the group of girls at the other side of the bar sipping "Kasteel" a belgian beer that they said tasted just like Pornstar martinis. Some other folks visiting were having those as well so I just ordered a round for all of us. One of the chicks was studying tourism the other was studying integration management or whatever. When their zoomer friendzone friends came over and said they were champions I quipped: "What are you champions in boys? Fortnite?"
These chicks almost threw up laughing. They literally couldn't stop. The guys shook my hand, apparently they were winning at darts but jesus did I destroy their entire frame with these chicks and with that I earned a place at their table. One was in soccer practice the other god knows what. The result of this fellas, me and the chicks finished the barrel of "Kasteel". I had the last one. 7% Belgian Tropical Ipa. This shit is lemonade.
Yeah well I was sitting next to this random lady and a bee flew near her and she shrieked so I grabbed it with my bare hand and I’m allergic and as my hand swelled up I asked if she did butt stuff.

Nice, if she gets offended you can claim it's part of the allergic reaction. 
Yeah well I made my partner spit her wine out her nose when I asked my brother in law to bark hello to his wife for me
Went to go see Korn. Shit ruled.
It is typically to see Disney stuff everywhere here. And I don’t follow Mickey Mouse lore, but everything with Donald Duck has captions like “Donald doesn’t know left from right. Donald’s a dumb bitch. He doesn’t know why life never goes his way. Mickey hopes Donald kills himself.”
Donald helps me fight Xehanort. Why are they so cruel to him.

Donald looks after his nephews, Daisy doesn't want that in her life so she's also seeing Gladstone Gander.
It is also unclear if they are family considering they share the same last name.
With Mickey and Minnie no such hypergamy or possible incest is happening.
They have been stable and loyal since the very first cartoon.
Daisy is Minnies best friend but Mickey would rather not have her hang out with the degenerate Duck "family".
Goofy is a single parent but seems on the level otherwise. Not as much drama.
Donald Duck is an adult man who refuses to wear pants.
