   This might be my all-time favorite tech job rejection letter.

     @danluu I once lived in an Apartment 420. This caused so many systems to reject me, including the payment system for the apartment complex I lived in.

     The absolute worst was any sort of banking institution or KYC restricted company. Insurance companies? No problem we don’t care if you live on mars. But fucking Fidelity Investments? I had to have someone *fucking video chat* me to prove that I lived at an apartment 420.

     This was made worse by my use of a GVoice number as my typical phone number, which shows up as a voip number in a data center in Wherever the hell California.
