Top five reasons why my work is like a fraternity house
# Only guys work at my office. Not like it's a sexist thing, and women have worked there before, but at the moment it's only us Y-chromosomes folks.# Any day that it's nice we grill lunch out on the back patio. Yesterday was turkey burgers, today was "hot dogs":http://www.theonion.com/onion3011/walkeninla.html! # Another thing that happens on nice days is the portable hoop gets put out, and some hot 2-on-2 action gets going after work. I stay far, far away from the games because a) I have no skillz whatsoever (I was only able to make it to JV in grade school, and only made 2 baskets all season (although one of them was in the game against the teachers.. yay me!)) and b) the boys I work with play _hard_, and I'm just not that competative about sports stuff. # We're talking about having the occasional "low-stakes poker game":http://feralboy.com/log/archives/001010/ at lunch. Wait until I clean out all those dead money guys! ;-) # We have a mascot. It's actually our 2nd. The neighbors next door had a pet rooster, or at least we hope it was a pet and not dinner. Anyway, "McNuggets":http://feralboy.com/photoalbum/photos/?folder=20031229_mcnuggets (as we called him) disappeared, and was replaced by a golden rooster. We don't like this one nearly as much, as don't feed him like we did Nuggets.
Anyway, if this sounds like a fun place, then we're hiring. It would be for someone who does ASP.NET programming at a high level (classes, complex user interfaces, lots of SQL queries, etc.). You probably also should live in the Pittsburgh area. If you are this person, or know this person, send me an email at mattcomroe[at]yahoo.com.
