A Skill Set You Can't Put on a Résumé
Over at Science (via Work), the author daydreams about what happens when a normal job finally comes calling — and isn't sure the interview would go well.
An imagined exchange at a sandwich counter runs through the highlights: degenerate Hamiltonians and their first-order perturbations, the offer to build a web site and ordering system, even the claim of being safe to throw around. The sub shop already has a site. And a next candidate.
"What else?"
The conclusion is hard to argue with.
