Had an interview today...

I had an interview this morning. Two hours with a seriously stealthy start-up that's looking for, get this, employee #4. They have a talented Rails guy working the data model and back-end, and they need someone with some front-end experience who's comfortable hacking back-end as needed. I met all three other guys: the business guy, the Subject Matter Expert, and the programmer, and all were really excellent folks. The product is something I could really believe in, unlike ${ETHICS_VIOLATION} and ${DUBIOUS_ETHICS}.

The most interesting part of the interview was where I pulled out my current freelance job and was able to show the components: the front-end, the back-end, the relatively simple data model, and the unit testing facility.

I hope I get this one. I really do. Because it looked good on paper, and it was a great push forward. It's in Rails, but I can live with that. It'll be the smallest start-up I've ever joined.

Tried making halibut and steak shish-kebabs for dinner. Those were pretty yummy, too. Spent all evening working for the freelance job because this morning and part of the afternoon was taken up with the interview, and I had to run Omaha and Kouryou-chan to dance class, and there was a ton of other material to take care of in the daytime.
