I just accepted a job offer for a fully remote position that will eventually require a visit to corporate HQ, which is located ~90 minutes from where I grew up. It's tempting to plan some extra time to stop by the old digs but I'm estranged (my choice) so don't really want to see what's left of the family who raised me. I also don't know anyone else who still lives there, and was never that close to them in the first place. I've learned about as much as I feel I need to just from Street View. So I guess I'll just look out the airplane window and be thankful that's as close as I'm going to get. Then I'll hope no one asks me where I'm from and deflect any deeper questions.
