    Depends. I’ve happily turned down jobs that required me to use Windows and the amount of daily frustration I avoid as a result is worth every bit of the pickiness.

      I mean couldn’t you just use a virtual machine on Linux or MacOS if you needed to use it for work? If you could manage working at the job and it’s otherwise cool with nice perks, you really fucked up a good opportunity. As someone who is dealing with debilitating pain and mental issues, id KILL for a sweet job where I could work on computers and not kill my body the process. You must be loaded with cash to be this picky.

      Downvote all you like. I’m happy picking the jobs I want and don’t have to maintain proficiency in a bad tool I hate using. You do you.
