I was kinda goaded into an interview by someone. I've always been a Linux, C, and lately, some Go guy. This company was Windows and .Net. So I politely declined, but this person told me to just interview and it would be fine.

So I joined. Person who made all these assurances is on, as well as this younger guy. Proceeds to ask some rather academic type questions about features of languages I haven't looked at in 20 years. To be clear, not bad questions, but more suited to someone just out of CS, or from Java/C# land.

Rather than just BS my way through, I declined to answer and said I'm not comfortable speaking to it.

The original guy who asked me to interview got flustered, cut it short after the third question, and said I'm not so and so material.

The whole thing was a bit surreal to me, to be honest.
