Yeah but people are weird: I’m also contracting in the Amsterdam area and I once got a fella quite stubbornly insisting I should commute daily to their office in Leeuwarden to work on their AWS stack. He even suggested I rent a room for the week if I didn’t like sitting on the train that much. Crazy


That’s crazy, the only worse commute would be something like Maastricht and even that train route is better.

I guess you found another client quickly?


Ah, of course. But I dis find it a bit regretful, the project sounded cool and there was some Kafka involved at a time that it wasn’t as hyped/established as it is today. But no, it wasn’t worth such a crazy commute, just to have bad coffee together
