The other side to that story: I'm scared like shit whenever (and that's often enough) I consider applying for a new thing. And back out, don't even try.

Most of the reasons are listed in the article, but let's be honest: I'd face most of these things.. So the pipe dream atm is to find some time for personal projects, foss contributions and .. use that to get to more reasonable opportunities. Reaching ten years with this company here, these interview stories might keep me here for another decade.

If it helps: when I interview, I really really want the candidate to succeed because he or she is solving a problem for me. I need more competent hands. I don't know if this helps, but it's true.
