You can't let an outage or some alleged talent gap be a reason for wanting to tap out.

You need to realize that your doing great, folks would kill to get a job at Amazon, the scale and the challenges are mind bending compared to what most other companies deal with and the interview is grueling and you made it.

Technology is a word that describes something that doesn't work yet and Amazon thinks that you are a person that can help tip the balance.

It's a joke.
