#21990 being the world expert in some field, being contacted from the US to build some stuff for them. No interview as I remember, never saw the guy, but he was very nice and competent. No other challenges than the 6 hrs time difference to the east coast. The west coast work was harder, this was 9 hrs difference. But still no problem as we had 2 hrs overlap.

#3I was out of work at the time. I was calling everyone I knew to talk.
I called someone whom had worked for me 7 years before, and he needed help. He now worked 9 hours away, but was happy to have me work remotely.
