xkcd said it better…

I have a good job, not looking for anything else, but about 3 weeks ago I get a nice introductory mail from a Google Inc. HR representative, telling me that they want my CV and they want to contact me. FFS! it’s GOOGLE! of course I brushed up my CV, and sent it to them.

One week later, I had a telephone interview (I was scared like shit) with their HR department, a very sweet lady talked to me, everything was cool, and pinkish and so on. After the interview finished, she told me it went quite well (I asked!!), she will send the results to the next level, and they will contact me in the following two weeks.

Well, if you read the comic above, you will understand they didn’t have an opening for a person with my skills, but they will keep my CV in their database. Standard text, politically correct.

Talking to my boss about it, he was quite shocked that I was willing to leave Romania, and my family just to relocate for a big corporation, but (and I repeat): FFS! It’s GOOGLE! Nevermind now, they don’t need me, and I can stick the proverbial carrot out of my ass.

So that’s about it…

PS: Of course I’m pissed! but it was too good to be true…
