@lritter Biggest plot twist : it was my own NDA

@lritter that's what we call an FDA

@lritter bridgewater vibes

@lritter I'm using this

@lritter "I could tell you, but then I'd be contractually obligated to kill you."

@lritter :clapping:

@lritter I wonder if that's something you could actually pull haha

@lritter @jw I wonder if that would work.

@lritter holy shit bro

@lritter The FSF should make freedom-preserving NDAs since they say stuff against them (which is one of the few things they say/do that I agree with).

@lritter

"Discordians are not allowed to believe what they are reading, you know"

@lritter and you mentioned that there was another NDA - busted!

@lritter
this, genius.

@lritter Damn. Wish we thought of that.

@lritter

with your spine

@lritter An NDA is like a geas, right?

@lritter I have a disclosure agreement

@lritter

them: with who?
me: with who*m*

@lritter
Kein Problem, ist ja sowieso nur scheinbar kaputt.

(Im Gegensatz zu "anscheinend")

@lritter that deserves an all-3: boost, favourite, AND bookmark for later use :)

@lritter Checks notes; ah yes, that'd give you an "Apologies, but we have decided to move along with other candidates"

@lritter That needs to go on a T-shirt

@lritter You may be qualified to work in a 3 letter agency!

@lritter

me: sorry but i can't sign this NDA

them: why not?

me: i have this thing...

them: What thing?

me: We're calling it "a conscience".

@lritter a lot of the time it should be "I can't sign that NDA, we have our customer data at cloud provider XYZ".
But I never heard that yet.

@lritter Golden

@lritter I gave up a really solid job offer once because between the NDA and no-compete agreement I'd have to sign I would basically put myself out of a career field if I quit the job and wanted to work for anybody else locally; I practically would have had to move states.

That being said I've signed them and worked with them before. There are instances where it is very much needed because people can get hurt or killed if that info is not a millstone hung round the neck of those who manage it.
