<p>thats true. thats why i made this thread</p>

<p>That, and it's what I'd tell anybody who I'd try to recruit to join my company. Which, I must admit, would be cool. I get a bonus for every person I recruit who ends up working here. I own a shredder, I don't answer my phone if I don't know who's calling, I installed a dead bolt on my apartment door, and I'm a loyal member of the foil hat brigade, but I don't mind sharing ballpark salary estimates and car models, and my picture and resume are about to be posted to the company website for anybody to look at, so the damage is done.</p>

<p>I think I'll get another free coke, and watch my mountains for a while.</p>

<p>They better give you a good dental plan with all that coke :)</p>

<p>It's diet.</p>

<p>But yes, I even had a dentist appointment last week, and used my dental coverage. =) (No cavities!)</p>

<p>behannah-what do you do at work?Is it 'fun'? I'm also an EE major. And exactly how expensive is L.A?</p>

<p>AIR BEAR should post a link to her company profile. Haha.</p>

<p>LA's expensive. I'm paying about $1.60/SF for my current apartment, and I have a 40-minute round-trip daily commute to Burbank, so I don't even actually live <em>in</em> Los Angeles.</p>

<p>Air bear...? That me...?</p>

<p>Yes, that is you.</p>

<p>$1.60/SF? What is that?</p>
