Pure insanity

I won't go into many details, because for all I know the Swedish have a team of Seal agents to take out loudmouths, but the health and lifestyle benefits for Spotify are insane.  At least, they seem so to an American.  I think my time off has actually doubled.  If I did have a kid, even as a father, EVEN AS ADOPTION, I get guaranteed time off (six months!) and also a guarantee that my job will still be there after.  And then there's the orientation in Sweden, which I have to assume was an auditory hallucination from me being awake at a time when I was supposed to be deep deep asleep.

And those are not even close to the best bits.

The big thing, I believe, is growth.  I've already gotten a raise, but given this company's rep, I expect I will get more.  And advancement will probably be coming.

I should sell these longboxes of comics, I think.

So this happened

My company was bought by Spotify and so now I work for Spotify and they are a Swedish company and apparently I will attend employee orientation in Stockholm later this year.

Also I have learned I have a fetish for Scandinavian men.
