Pre-meeting, I say something nice to @IamMrsGeek, but she can’t hear me. I try again. Still no luck. I take off my headphones and try one more time. I don’t know why I thought taking off my headphones would help.

It worked though.

@WuMargaret @IamMrsGeek a well-established phenomenon indeed!

@tedder depends on whether they hire me or not, but I like the people I’m talking to so far. Smaller shop, mostly Python.
