            It's not a matter of "do they take the job or not take the job".

          My plan is to just continue being a good little coder (or promote into a manager) for a few more years and then retire in some cheap house somewhere with my partner and try and live as cheaply as possible while spending all my time doing drugs, walking around in nature, and meditating
