First day on the job

Can't you easily install linux on a mac?

Not on Macshit 2018. Other people have tried, have reported it's extremely unstable. Also there's the fact that this shit overheats and throttles like a motherfucker, OSX is optimized to work on such hardware, I doubt any Linux is, especially given the lack of drivers. Even so, I'd still have to use the WORST. KEYBOARD. EVER. and the meme LCD screen instead of function keys.
And I won't have any of these problems if I could just bring my own device, but that's verbotten. Or they could just give me a PC for half the price, but they won't. Literally everyone at this company is a macfaggot, whenever I bring up any of the problems I'm having with the macshit first they laugh as if I was joking, then they get angery.
I'd quit but I need the money and nobody pays more then them in this town. But I've made a note to self to never take seriously any company that uses Macs unironically.

Jesus crystal christ...

UNIX is proprietary, you twit. That's the whole point.

Managers are professional retards, they wouldn't remember you even if it was legit.

>5 years...fake it.
Nice way of getting yourself into a blacklist

Not in all states. Also no way to prove it

:cq

B2B communication is focused on just the information, and some businesses will never even ask on what terms you left the last business, since it is not the same business you are applying to.

Give them the info, there is a >50% chance you will be hired.

Based and principled Eclipse dev sticking to his guns

I can just smell the angry middle management type faggot typing this out

Damn that sounds comfy.
