Yeah. I’ve been working in silicon Valley since 2009. I’ve worked everywhere from startups to Facebook. I was laid off a year ago. I did 25 applications a week for 6 months with 0 interviews or call backs. This was all stuff I have industry experience at and fantastic references for. Even the contract companies I worked with haven’t been able to find me anything outside of IT roles that require 24/7 on call paying $25/hr. I was making that in 2010. The job market for tech is nonexistent.

No link to a rip?

I contracted at plex for 6 months. The employees really care. The developers were very concerned with making the absolute best media server possible. The QA team was doing crazy stuff to try to keep everything working.

If they’re not yiffing, I’m not reading.

Yeah, it sucked, but the pay was great, and I really wanted to work for the company.

Or San Francisco. My longest commute was 3.5 hours each way. Average over 15 years there was 90 minutes.

At least I’m not the only one who had this idea

Sure, but imagine you join a meeting and the lead engineer is sitting in a ball pit. Isn’t your first response going to be to laugh? Then he shifts to grab something and slowly sinks out of frame. It’s 100% going to make whatever stupid meeting better.

If only. Shipping on ball pit balls is stupid expensive. I looked at filling a 6x12 office like 3 feet deep and it was going to be almost $3000 once shipping was included. Yes, I am still bitter about it. I just didn’t want to deal with an office chair anymore.
