Had a job interview at their Ames facility back in December. It was an interesting opportunity, and it required a LOT of sacrifices in terms of commute and workload, but I could’ve made it work. Then they tried to pull the “Could we interest you in a contractor position?” switcheroo at the end of the hiring process and I noped the fuck out. The next week, Trump announced he was cutting all contractor jobs and freezing new hires for the agency.
Lmfaoooo
Guess the burnout is real. I couldn’t believe how much of a dump the place was honestly. Shit is being held together with duct tape, zip ties, and free veteran labor.
I just realized the other day that one of the updates on my Chromebook automatically installed something called “NotebookLM” on my app bar. Never asked for it. Never even looked at apps on my Chromebook before. But it’s there now, and it super secret bloodswap pinky swares it won’t steal my ideas or writing. What an odd thing to say on first open.
