>> it's our job to ask during the interview process a few questions from the Joel test

I know. That was totally amateur on my side. I was excited because it's a nice company and just accepted their offer. And they're nice guys. It's not like they're assholes but their mentality towards coding standards is frustrating.

Anyway, at the end of the day, I know it's my fault for not asking those questions during the recruitment process. :(
