    I think Google's just found its next director of recruiting, if Ryan wants the job.

    Whereas, when I interviewed for Cthuugle they only wanted to know if I preferred to be transferred to the Frozen Plateau of Leng or R'lyeh.

    I'm going to use this as an excuse for all career fallow periods from now on. "I was too important for Google to hire."

    Wandering the halls of Google one day, I came across a load of bullshit.

    "Hey, I said. I know a whole lot of other loads of bullshit that I'd like to bring on board and present at the next conference."

    The load of bullshit stopped me

    "No," said the load of bullshit, "it's important to save some loads of bullshit for later conferences. It's important to the ecosystem. After all, if we concentrate our loads of bullshit in one conference, we won't have any other loads of bullshit to spread around later."

    That's great, I said. Then I killed myself.

    We'd love to hire you, but you're just too damned ... GOOD.

    (Although it's easy to propound in a total buyer's market, the theory does make some sense.)

    So...according to Google, you can sustain yourself and pay for things with your awesomeness alone? You don't need a job or a paycheck for that?
