I've been hanging out there for the last two years. (After hours) I've got a buddy that works there and I've helped swap cams and install headers, etc...

I hit a glass ceiling at my old software company job, and one day this spot opened up. I was interviewed twice... and in the end I was the guy they chose.

I've been there 3 days now and it's literally my dream job.
