It's funny to see that developers have so much leverage on the job market that you can read phrases like "don't hire this employer, you're better than that" and act like that's the most normal thing in the world. I guess it's time for having paid interviews again.
That's a little closer to how it should be. I'm so sick of the fear-saturated drivel that dominates much of 'common wisdom' surrounding employment: "dont' do this! don't do that! They may not like you!"
It's disgusting and emasculating to constantly be told that we have to neuter ourselves into this docile, submissive employee because otherwise our boss might decide he doesn't like us.
When you think about all the time and care most developers will spend on there jobs one should be picky. It is literally one of your life's most important decisions.
