From insider leaks overuse of contractors was what put infinite in the mess it was in the beginning.. so they're just doubling down on using contractors instead of listening to the actual workers. It's a huge shame because right as 343 started to pick up steam with updates Microsoft started firing everyone.

They wanted to hear how confident you were in your ability to solve problems with .NET. They didn’t want to hear “aCtUaLlY, nO oNe Is PeRfEcT.”
Yeah, I mean no shit, with hindsight it's obvious they were looking for the 10/10 answer. I was kicking myself for days afterwards because that's the only question I felt I answered "wrong". Tech interviews are such a shit show though that you can start to overthink things as an interviewee. Also, an important aspect of the question that I didn't mention was they specified "1 is completely new, and 10 is working at Microsoft on the .net framework itself". The question caught me off guard. I have literally no idea what working at Microsoft on the framework is like. In that context being a 10/10 felt like being among the most knowledgeable person of c# of all time. Could I work on the framework itself? Idk maybe, I've never thought about it, I don't even know what their day to day is. I should've just said 10/10 though, it was a dev II position to work on a web app, it wouldn't have been that hard.
I played with a person for months in overwatch before I heard their voice. It was because she enjoyed playing with my friends and I and was afraid that we would get all weird when we learned her gender. Thankfully my friends and I aren't dickheads so it all worked out. We continue to play games to this day even, just not overwatch because it sucks and fuck blizzard.
I ended up renting a brand new f150 lariat since it was the cheapest option available at the time and honestly I kind of get it. The thing was comically huge but I felt like a king in there. Super spacious interior too, my 7 yo nephew was standing up without his head even hitting the ceiling. I would never buy one since they're ridiculously expensive and too unnecessary, but man if I didn't like driving it.
Not sure why you're getting down voted. This is exactly what happened at my last company during the RTO push, senior employees, including me, were leaving in droves and it got bad quickly. As a result the company upped their salaries and offered fully remote work instead of just hybrid to keep people around. The only way a company will listen is if you hit them in their wallets.
I was a big American cheese hater until I had land o' lakes American cheese. Shits actually pretty good
