I applied to a (among other techs) nodejs position for a finance company. I asked 5 times in all interviews if it’s ok to run linux, just to make sure.
they said yes, and after signing the contract, I was send the instructions via email and company laptop was shipping. In the instructions, I was supposed to work through some remote desktop on a windows machine. fuck me
I instantly resigned, one day before starting.I refused the parcel so it went back to the mothership without me even touching the box

Or just imagine generating this fake Gmail in Gemini or ChatGPT and posting it to farm the rage.
