I was asked in a job interview “What are you passionate about?” Well, glad you asked. My current passion is dropping my 4 & 6 year old off at camp, followed by a guilt filled nap (unemployed). Upon waking, I love a good turkey sandwich which I eat while watching 1980’s reruns of Unsolved Mysteries on that weird Roku channel. And then I organize a sock drawer if I’m lucky. I think there are ‘passions’ in my brain somewhere, maybe they’ll come back to the surface someday. And also I got the job 🙌

Honestly turkey sandwiches are a legit passion. I love a generous amount of mayo on both sides and tomatoes with salt sprinkled on it directly on the mayo.

I applaud that. I prefer mustard on one side, mayo on the other, pepper on the turkey, with cheese. And embarrassingly, a potato chip inserted into each bite. I understand the tomato thing, for some reason I just never wanted it on the sandwich. Now we know each other’s sandwich stories. 😂

So what happened to the sock drawer? Hee hee congrats!

5+ years of full-time job as developer and still waiting to reverse a LinkedList at work.

Since there is a heavy impetus on solving Tree, LinkedList, and Graph problems for tech interviews, it can naturally make freshers believe that these concepts will be used in day-to-day life at work. In reality, most of these DSA concepts are already implemented in some libraries our code uses and we rarely have to code such Algorithms by hand.
