A while back I got laid off, in the short term after that I created a bot that automatically clicks their ad at the top of the Google search results.

And then I forgot about it. I had lunch with the COO yesterday - he said their ad spend is out of control.

This is electric, quite surprised this worked so well. Did you have to get fancy with header information or is this more of an auto gui type bot?

I'll be honest. I have no idea. It's not my forte so I'm not entirely sure.

I had no idea [he says sarcastically]
I get it. I'm still tangentially in the same industry.

I did some more data analysis this morning and the company actually had one of their largest wholesalers run some ads last year that dropped the company out of the top spot - and they got 84k clicks before they suspended their ad spend.

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷
