Job~ma all round.
You should let us know ahead of time when this will happen so we can do a champagne toast.
Makes note to get bottle to chill.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
I am meeting with a total of 10 people, starting at 9 am and finishing at 5 pm. Lunch is even a meeting. I get one 15 minute break. Some of the people I'm meeting with? CEO and the two owners of the company.
Sounds similar to my interview for current job. Hopefully there will be some meetings with multiple people. This is an excellent chance for you to meet EVERYONE and get a sense if you want to work with these people. It sounds like a crazy day, but I found it refreshing in the end. Not to say I wasn't mentally exhausted at the end of the day. Oh yes. Very tired. But I got just as good sense of them as they did of me. I think you will do great!!

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Ugh, I am sorry for the fuckery, Todd.
Oh, we most definitely will virtual-toast.
I keep forgetting I'm at a level now where all-day interviews are the norm. Impostor syndrome has taken firm hold. I don't what I'm going to do if this doesn't pan out.

I've worked with half of these folks at my old job. The NH company raided our sales/marketing/consulting teams a few years ago.
Some of them I've known for 12 years. Not sure if that's good or bad.

Sounds good to me.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Definitely good. That carries a lot of weight.

A known quantity is almost always a more comfortable pick, but more important it's unlikely they would be going to the point of bringing you in for a full day and multiple meetings if the people who already know you weren't enthusiastically on board.

This. And good luck! I'm so glad you got the interview!

Oh Maria, great news! And yes to what everyone else said about the fact that you never would have gotten to the all-day interview (which, as Omnis said, can actually turn out to be exciting and invigorating) if the people you know there weren't excited you're applying. Kick that impostor syndrome in the ass—you've got this!
Best wishes to Todd and Tep for a better day.
