          Nice that you got an exit package to take the edge off.

            Recruitment fail:

            • Tell the candidate that he's been matched to a job he doesn't really want.

            • Ask him to take a little test…

            • … Which turns out to have the instruction "spend no more than twelve hours on this" in it...

            • … And request it be completed by Tuesday afternoon.

            I think that the HR department has put me off the company before I've even got to interview. Good work!

                Sorry to hear Graeme. It's a tough time of year to get a job. The market won't pick up until after the end of summer. Everyone's still trying to remember what work is inbetween long weekends and back to school.

                  I had an interview with another company today, so it's not all bad news. I'm not actually feeling much love for coding right now, and am thinking of going my own way.

                  This will lead to poverty, misery and rickets! Might be fun though.

                    Ebay seems to be chock full of cheap sobs.  9 offers on a watch I'm selling, zero within 20% of asking price!

                                  Well, the family history definitely qualifies me for purchase as one of the latter.

                                        This week I was off work with tonsillitis, went to see my doctor who gave me an anti biotic to clear it up. Due to my fucked up immune system I also get allergy type reactions when my immune system is low (swellings and stuff, basically my body massively overreacts to infections), went back to the doctor and he gave me steroids to clear that up.

                                        My curious nature forced me to google the medications to check if they reacted with each other and I was shocked to find that combined they have a life threatening reaction, the anti biotic dramatically strengthens the steroid which leads to over dose.

                                        So I can take one or the other, do I keep the tonsillitis or the allergy type reaction….decision, decisions....

                                        Conclusion. My doctor is a fucking idiot.

                                        clarithromycin oral will increase the level or effect of prednisone oral by affecting hepatic/intestinal enzyme CYP3A4 metabolism.

                                            @mega. It might be worth asking if there is an anti-biotic and steroid combination that does not have the interaction you describe. There are so many anti-biotic options available, I suspect they can adjust one to work with the other.

                                            p.s. happened to a relative of mine too. Had a multi-prescription interaction that sent them to the ER. I don't understand why there are not automatic flags in a database that indicate the interaction issues with multi-prescriptions.
