I made a trek up to Waltham today, to Bentley University, to participate in a "one-on-one paid interview" at their Design and Usability Center. They were looking for people with photography experience to review some kind of digital photo thingamabob, and they were paying $100 for sitting through a 90-minute interview. What's not to like?

So I made it there -- early -- with my 200 digital photos carefully saved to a USB drive as requested. I met the interviewer, and then I waited. And waited. And waited.

Turns out they were having technical problems with the new device, and I frankly ran out of time to sit there. I ended up leaving, but with my $100, since I'd done everything they asked of me.

Honestly, it was probably for the best that I didn't do the interview. After 90 minutes of technical difficulties, I probably wouldn't have an unbiased opinion on the stupid thing any longer -- whatever the heck it was.
