    Amazon Black Friday

    BS. We cannot meet the demand for senior talent especially with upcoming retirement. All graduates including foreigners, cannot fill the void.

    That is why I dropped it in the first place. They did have some nice formal networking dinners though.

    Professional Memberships & Clubs

    I was thinking of rejoining IEEE and TSPE. Is there really any benefit to joining and participating in these societies?
