Good grief...

Well, I found three places to apply to this morning, one of which I don't trust, another of which sounds like a nifty startup. An opportunity I skipped says "This is a non-paid position," and looking closely it appears to be a charity start-up that's going through a funding crunch and is looking for a design haus that will support its web outreach until it starts to get money. The third position I did apply for is at The Mouse.

I'm told that working for the Mouse can be fun. I hope it's not one of those position where I have to remember all seven of the dwarfs, though; I can never quite get that right. Happy, Dopey, Sleepy, Sneezy, Doc, Grumpy, and Bashful, right?

Wasn't it sleezy, sexy, snarky, dopey, grumpy, larry, curly and moe?

Once did a Death March contract for the Mouse (first metal for the Fastpass system back in 1999). A couple of senior park engineers flew over to Scotland from Florida to lean over our shoulders and slow us down even further. Since there was already a coder in the shop called Ken, we called Ken the Mouse Guy "Disney Ken".

I did mention this was in Scotland, didn't I?

I've heard they have a really grueling contract re. your ability to say anything about Disney (without explicit consent) ever. As a writer, you may want to look into that one before signing, should you get that far.
