Me: *boards plane, checks email*
Them: “Due to coronavirus, we are changing your interview to virtual.”
Me:

Do the interview from the space needle. If webcams are involved, they'll realize you're already in Seattle when they see the WaMu tower pass by (the needle has a revolving restaurant).

A good introduction into PNW culture: physical and emotional distance.

I’m sitting in SeaTac right now. Everything is fine. Everything is fine, nothing to see here. But the plane was about 30% capacity for my flight from San Jose to Seattle. I’m like legit corona virus carrier by now.

Good luck! I have a tentative trip to Las Vegas for fun in a week and a half. I haven't booked a flight, still waiting to see if the Corona virus will score me a cheap flight. Does that make me evil?

I would definitely wear one of those loose fitting paper masks for the virtual interview.
Good luck - at least all the normal tourist destinations won’t be busy if you have a little spare time...

Brilliant. Or the Starbucks headquarters. Or if you want to go full-creepy, their reception area.

Unfortunately, I can’t drink much these days (thanks A-fib). I’m also spending the rest of the trip looking at homes in the Redmond/Kirkland/Sammamish areas. But I do appreciate the offer!

I guess. I’m trying not to think about it. Interviewing in tech is brutal, so I’m just going through the process, continue prepping and keeping expectations low.
