Unbelievable. I had a soft contact lens split in two once - one half came out, the other went up and over. It was really painful. 
Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

I've had two in one eye, once for some time, about three times. It's not nearly as noticeable as one would think and becomes less so the longer left in.

but 27, really!? Don't you think someone would notice at 5 maybe, or even 2 as you stated?

Soft lenses are really soft. Hard edges from tears become soft etc. They are also extremely sticky to each other, and very well formed to "spoon". So it's not like she would have felt a peanut size thing in her eye or anything.
I'm sure she noticed but was afraid she was doing something wrong or something was wrong with her.

More for your WTF:
If she was scheduled for cataract surgery, one could safely assume she'd been to the ophthalmologist in the not-too-distant past. And they didn't notice anything.

Exactly what I was thinking.
My conclusion, this is a bullshit story are there are some really stupid people managing her health care, including her.

I've never worn contacts in my life, except for one pair I had to use shortly after I've had laser eye surgery. One of them disappeared, and the doctor couldn't find it. To this day it still creeps me out, thinking it still might be in there somewhere. And that was nearly 15 years ago...

Reminds me of that "joke" where the person was adding cigarette patches without removing the old ones, until they ran out of space. The directions were changed to add the middle step of "remove previous one".

At least hopefully he'll rest in peace[^]. Maybe a head shot, just to be sure?

I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

I#m not sure it was known when they were making the original either, but it still worked.

He'll be back soon as the worlds first zombie movie director though.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Having more than 11 years of experience as an asp.net web developer, I have worked only for one company, developing their website
from the ground up and supporting it. I started working there without supervision of a senior developer, and had no one to ask my
questions and I was the only developer. I managed to find solutions and implement the required functionalities from Ebooks and
the internet. Also I had time to study new technologies and were passionate about it, while might have not been able to use them
for the company since they didn't want me to do so. After that I migrated to another country and now I have found it challenging
to get employed as a web developer. The employers are so hard and expect a developer with a lot of successful projects and strong
team work experience, etc.
I don't feel confident as a senior developer I am happy to go with any job even a junior one.
I have written my CV the standard way, and have applied to many jobs and have had several interviews. However, my special
background and also me not being an outgoing person who keep conversation going(introverted) has prevented me from landing a job.
Most of my life I have been behind my computer developing programs, finding solutions, studying new technologies. I would be
happy to work as a freelance developer also and know there are websites like upwork, golance, etc. But have not experienced that
and a newbie.
I want a quick way to a web developer job, even with a low salary. Any suggestion? It would be highly appreciated.
I am skilled in ASP.NET(web forms, mvc), SQL Server, HTML5, CSS3, Javascript, Jquery, just learned .NET Core, Entity Framework,
AngularJs, ReactJs, Bootstrap, SASS, git, MEAN, NodeJs.
Thanks

I have no idea in which country you're applying for positions but I suspect it's similar in most countries. In the US I've had a similar issue. I built an internet company from the ground up, had a few contract positions, and still have trouble finding work the "traditional way" despite my experience. Honestly, I don't have much advice besides what's gotten me more interviews and interest. The fact is HR doesn't always hire based on experience. Sometimes a single thing you say makes all the difference even though it shouldn't in my opinion.
So that being said - #1) brag. I don't mean be arrogant or full of yourself. No ones like that. But don't be humble. Brag about what you've accomplished. Remember, they aren't looking deeply through your whole GitHub, work history, or articles. They spend a minute or so glancing at your CV to see if you bring more value than the 100 other applicants. It's a numbers game. Focus on getting an interview through your CV - not the job. Get the job through the interview when you can speak your mind in full.
#2) Find a flaw. When you're interviewing, you're immediately in a "weak" position. If you can point to a flaw in their system and propose a valid fix, now you are in a dominant position. Your skills have improved their systems before they've even hired you. An easy way for ASP.NET developers is to point to common security flaws since they're unfortunately often overlooked.
#3) Be yourself. Don't try to be who you think they want. Just be you. If they bring up a topic you're interested in, talk to them about it. If you can teach someone during an interview, that's another powerful position you put yourself in.
#4) Don't get depressed because you did everything right and still didn't get the job. Sometimes you lose the job simply because you didn't have the same interests as the person interviewing you. People form opinions of other people not based on merit but on feeling. I know from a friend in HR that they once hired someone simply because the manager on the interview loved baseball and had a good conversation with one applicant about the current baseball season.
#5) None of this is fact. It's all my subjective opinion based on experience. Nothing more. What works for me might not work for you and vice versa. Just keep trying and building your portfolio. As a fellow introvert I know it's hard connecting with people in 30m or an hour during an interview, but if you really show passion for what you do it'll get through. Whether that's enough is up to them. Their loss if they pass.
Best of luck!
