Evening interview; 7-point-meme
May. 18th, 2005 10:10 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Technical interview went well, got on with Steve and mutually agreed that programming is all much of a muchness, only the function names change. I think the job is pretty much mine if I want it, and while I retain some reservations about working from home I am probably going to go for it. Helpdesk jobs will no doubt still be there in 3 months time if I do not pull it off ... still, attend the interview I shall, I am a man of my word. Largely.
Oh go on then:
1. Reply and I'll write something about you.
2. I will then tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.
3. I will say something that only makes sense to you and me.
4. I will tell you my first memory of you.
5. I will tell you what animal you remind me of.
6. I'll then tell you something that I've always wondered about you.
7. Then post this in your own journal...
EDIT: Gosh, this is hard. I don't seem to have many private jokes, and it doesn't look like I wonder anything about people often or for long. Oh well.

Date: 2005-05-18 09:32 pm (UTC)2. I'm afraid I can't think of anything. Though, on a related note, you are now attached to the Endless in my head.
3. I will get that coded up for you at some point, I promise...
4. Our first physical-type meeting was NWO - at least as far as I can recall. So I guess that counts as my earliest memory.

6. I wonder how serious you are about the calendar.

3. You're right, I don't think we have any special secrets. Maybe we should work on that.
4. Omega, natch. I'm sure I'd seen you before but my earliest clear memory was the Ordo meeting that I attended.
5. Penguin. Exactly like that. I do not know why.
6. For the longest time I wondered if you spoke like Hedonismbot. I was quite disappointed. Oh, I do wonder what your book is about.
