So, heading down the street one evening on the way to a pub
where current and former workers from
SGI tech support gather on
a semi-regular basis to chat about whats happened, who is where now
(many of them aren't with
SGI any more) and other such comradery.
Anyways... I'm walking down a street to the
pub (it is within
staggering distance) and a large group of people are walking in my
direction with a general appearance that is more
scruffy than I am
(I have a mid-back
ponytail and a full
beard). Just as they pass, I
hear them comment on my T-shirt. I was wearing a
UserFriendly
Evil Geniuses in a Nutshell
T-shirt that I got that
the
O'Reilly OpenSouce Conference. The
Evil Geniuses part is what
intrigues them. So we chat for a bit, and I get a
business card:

Yep, they are hiring.
Any gathering of more than three programmers in Silicon Valley can be considered a job-fair.
