    My company is doing this: hiring principal level employees. It makes no sense to me — get an entry level and train them up on what you need. Way cheaper and gives a way higher return on investment. I’ve been yelling at my manager to stop trying to hire senior folks and start hiring entry level.

    I stream from Netflix and Hulu. If it’s not there, I torrent it. I’ve got invites to iptorrents if anyone wants into a pretty good private tracker.

    It’s not even a war, it’s a massacre that they call a war so we feel less bad about it. It’s a travesty and a tragedy.

    A coworker recently joined and is rather enthusiastic. I’ve been checked out of late, but their vibe is kind of infectious. AND one day said coworker was telling me their must do ideas for marketing stuff. One of these ideas was Magic the Gathering cards for our company as giveaways and leave behinds.

    Welp, I did the three founders (we work at a startup and everyone knows everyone), brought it to a work event, and turns out the CMO was a Magic nerd. They asked for a full set. For a tournament. At our company yearly event for customers.

    So I’m 130 some odd finished cards deep now with a team of 6 and we start play testing soon. It’s absolutely wild. Nearly every employee is gushing over them and suggesting it as a yearly theme for all our events.

    I’m super excited for it, it’s helped me lean into my job again but in a different way.

    What were some of your favorite characters?
    Fiddler, karsa, quick Ben, tehol/bugg

    Favorite moments?
    First time you see Ben open 7 warrens in gardens of the moon, when they go into anomanders sword with the legions of death, fiddlers card reading, Rhulad getting hamstrung in the throne room, anything kechan chemal, following the dragon through the warren of fire

    What did you not see coming?
    The crippled god

    How did you feel about the perspective shift on the Crippled God as the series progressed?
    I didn’t like it. It felt sudden and out of left field. Granted I’m not a high level reader, so I missed any foreshadowing.

    Have you reread the series, and did you enjoy it more during an additional read?
    I ain’t got time for that!

    Anything else fun you'd like to talk about for these books
    What was icarium there for? (Again not a high level reader)
