Crappy Laptop, Stubborn Boss
Crappy Laptop, Stubborn Boss
Decent pay for remote engineer
Asked what kind of laptop and OS I wanted, then sent a crappy Dell laptop with Windows.
Boss always knows "exactly how to implement this."
Talked to boss about how tedious it was to work with the codebase. His response was, "You'll get used to it." They had their own transpiler, so I recommended a way to avoid doing what they were doing (I can't divulge the details, unfortunately), and his response was, "What we have is explicit. We like explicit, and we're not changing it."
Hire smart people and listen to them, instead of telling them what to do.
