During my recent interview I was explaining what I liked about the company, going in to detail about how I respected the CIO as he, as a software engineer, ran his ops teams like he runs a development team.

When I got home I realized my story wasn't about the CIO of the company but about Benjamin Treynor Sloss, VP Google Engineering, founder of Google SRE.

I had been reading the Google SRE book the night before and completely mixed up my stories!

I wonder if it was in part why I didn't get the job...
