I got contacted randomly on Linkedin by some recruiter. I needed a job right after college, and figured might aswell hear her out. Turned out my dream job just kinda fell into my lap that day.

    I hate you. I've been trying to get into my dream job for 21 years to no avail, and yours just falls into your lap right after school.

    Life under captialism isn't fair.

    The thing is I hate dealing with recruiters because they'll never tell you anything unless you go behind their back, but the only reason I'd be incentivized to go behind their backs is because they are all universally useless, don't answer emails, don't negotiate a decent salary for you, and don't listen to basic instructions like I'm not willing to move out of the local area (they define the local area to be the entiretive of planet Earth, but predominantly Dubai).
