      I’d rather they text me than call me, but you’d think they’d explain who they are when reaching out for the first time.

        Yeah, there was one time a recruiter just texted me “Is this xxxx ?”. If you’re gonna cold call/text, introduce yourself immediately on your first message.

      I read it as they originally called, then person replies “who diiiiiis” via text as they didn’t answer the call.

      It’s fake af anyway so I don’t know why I bothered even responding with some reasoning

      I mean, it’s fine if I missed their mail or whatever, but it sure would be unusual. Better than calling tho. I hate it when they do that.

    An interview for what? Becoming a side dish at your holiday buffet? Another worker to be gobbled up by the corporate flesh eating and soul destroying machinery of capitalism? Look at me being a Marxist all of a sudden…
