  • This isn’t a logo. It’s a cry for help from a severely distressed mind.

  • I got curious and did the math if $44B was denominated in $100 bills.

    That’s 496.85 cubic kilometers of cash. Or a pile of money that covers half of the continental US, stacked 1/4 of the height of Low Earth Orbit.

    I honestly don’t think one could physically burn that much cash since May 2022 in real life.

    Edit: more mind bogglery!

    The earth is ~40,000 km in circumference, so you could stack the bills almost 28m high around the equator (or circle the globe 256,482 times.)

















  • Yep. I live in one of the “post salary or GTFO” states, and lead with that. Anyone who can’t respond with a straight answer isn’t worth dealing with and is told why.

    I go through them every couple of days and have a text file with canned responses.

    • Thanks for reaching out. Before we proceed further, will you please provide a full job description, salary range, name of your client, and length of the contract?
    • Sorry - (DETAIL) falls outside/below my current expectations. Have a good day, and good luck!
