The cutesie backdrop for a start. And a photo that isn't washed out and doesn't give you a double chin.

4D 49 43 52 4F 53 4F 46 54 translates to "MICROSOFT"

But the photo's a clear photoshopping job.

Yes, you're right. Everyone look at littleguru's photo on his badge. You can indeed tell that it is fake.

Clearly he's actually in a secret division in MS and can't display his badge openly, otherwise he'd have to kill you... twice and then disintegrate you just to make sure.

Or another possibility is in the excitment of having news, he realized he didn't have his badge yet so he found a picture and photoshopped it to post.

I think the operative word here is... duh.

The other one I suppose would be... so?

Are you so concerned with this being some degree of a photoshop job that it's implications are lost on you?

Thanks for all the congrats. The picture is photoshopped (actually Paint.NETed Tongue Out

). But that is only because I haven't gotten the blue badge yet (I even don't know if interns get one).

But I got an internship at Microsoft (in Redmond). I'm going to work as PM at the Sync Framework.

Glad that you asked. It will be during the summer (end of July) until the beginning of October.

This is so exciting... Smiley

What's that supposed to mean?

Come on... don't leave us hanging... if you want to accuse me of something lets have it.

But you are the only one who seemed to... freak out about it, as if no one else understood it's implications.

So... you tell someone to stop 'picking on people online' by... 'picking on people online'? I at least have the maturity to discuss the issue at hand and not break into ad-hominum attacks.

Of course what's more entertaining is that you have no idea what you are talking about.

How did your interview process go? All on the phone or did you get a trip out to Redmond for an onsite?

It was all phone interviews (it's a little bit expensive to fly me over to Redmond)... I will post more on it on my blog in the next weeks or so Smiley
