I literally had the "Java is to javascript as car is to carpet" conversation with my dickhead boss. He didn't get it and I had to explain to him that you don't drive a carpet to work.

Yeah, I really don't understand why they hired me. It was a contract role and they ended it early once they ran out of things for me to do. Last day I drove home laughing the way home I was so fucking happy to leave that place.

They really sucked afterwards though since they wouldn't even say if I worked there or not while I was job hunting, so I spent the next few months unemployeed.

Eventually it was decided I would write Javascript on a web page I made. Skills I never declaired having I told them I was a java dev.

Yeah, i worked briefly at multinational japanese motor company and this was their logic. I was hired as a software developer contractor and HQ had rules stating, no open source software, no free software and the one that puzzled me the most no in house executables (WHY THE FUCK DID THEY HIRE ME?)

Of fucking course he did. It had to be him.

I like that even back then the jury found him unlikeable, though that seems to be the trend his whole life.

Oddly enough, there was another football league (USFL) which won an antitrust lawsuit against the NFL.

I'll bet you'll never guess what dipshit owned the New Jersey Generals until USFL went under. /s

It's all good man. Different people have different wants and needs. Your hands are a bit full with other stuff so setting up an ereader the way I have with mine is just too much om your already full plate.

Have a wonderful day and I hope you can find a good solution for yourself.
