Sascha Bates sbates

I started writing a blog post to describe a specific problem I'm trying to solve. The blog post evolved into a 700 word preamble of culture and organic growth situation that I'm working with right now at a client. I already want to do a presentation on that so I've shelved that and gone back to my original idea which was, just see if anyone else is dealing with this and how.

I have a dev team who needs to hand off several chef cookbooks, roles and databags to an operations team with instructions on how to build specific nodes. There are dependencies that are coded into the cookbooks appropriately with comments, metadata and includes, but I have also been trying to establish a way to make things self documenting for both handoffs like this and as a way to establish a CI pattern for cookbook collections.

Dear Recruiter,

Thank you for contacting me. As you can see on my LinkedIn profile, I am not seeking a full time position at this time. While I would consider a FT position with a startup, I am not interested in working for a company with more than 100 people nor do I wish to relocate to San Francisco or the Bay Area suburbs.

If you are receiving this form letter, it's because your email to me contained one of the above conditions. While I appreciate that you reached out to me, I am not able to respond personally to all of the form recruiting letters I receive and so I hope this suffices.

Have a nice day and no I don't have any referrals for you either.

xoxo, me
