<strainedmetaphor>Gotta get into the shed before you can be the black sheep.</strainedmetaphor>

I thought that shed was for storing bikes, not sheep.

Rejection for bad culture fit.

I thought that was only applicable if you weren't young, white, and male?

its like being on yahoo mail when gmail happened or having a new ibm when mac pros happened or doing php when ruby happened, or.. you get the drift.

So everyone like to be on the loop for the sake of being in the loop and not for practical reasons, that is golden!
