This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I know places that I worked for or kept an eye on after interviewing and reaching final stages (talking to founders) doing exactly that

Place A (I worked for): 13 job entries permanently open although they are not hiring and didn't hire a new person in over 2 years

Place B (I worked for): 1 job entry looking the same for the past 7 years, last one hired for that position started 3 years ago

Place C (open source project with enough funding to hire people): 2 positions permanently open but didn't hire in 3 years (Rotki)

Place D (similar to C): 4 jobs (CVAT)

Place E (failed Open source + enterprise plan project): 1 job (SuperduperDB)

(I can't disclose the first 2 for obvious reasons)

So it feels this how it's gonna be now I guess
