Well that sounds like a fun interview. But, could have been worse. At least you got some quality, relaxation, in.

Well of course ‘old’ people play video games… It’s ‘old’ people who design, create and test them… ‘Old’ people who market, ship and sell them… And ‘old’ people who buy every system when it comes out and don’t bitch (as much) about paying $50 a pop for the games. The fact that children occasionally get their parents to buy them one of the systems, or save up their allowance to get one themselves is of little consequence…
The above statement is made, for the most part with tongue firmly planted in cheek. (Kids don’t always get sarcasm…) :c)

In reply to hartree. Good point. I may start applying for moderately matched jobs in the hopes of getting to talk to someone eventually and finding out just how serious they are about the missing bits :)

In reply to fuzzytoedcollie. Yeah. Often, you could do the job with minimal train up. But someone writes that it requires experience with product X even when it only needs someone who has worked with something similar.

Yeah, just about every job posting I read hits about 70% of what I’ve got to offer–then asks for something I’m not. bleah.
*keeps on searching…*

In reply to little_wolf. Fuck you, pup ;-) Remember that age and treachery beats youth and skill any day!
