The average pharmacist pay in the US is $64.79 an hour and you can pretty easily open your own shop. Then you don't have to worry about interacting with clients anymore. Also, while in IT the retarded boomers think they know better than you, in healthcare they worship the ground you walk so it's easy to get them off your back. The main problems are hypocondriacs, crazies and the senile, but you make a lot of money off the first group since they're happy to buy your entire inventory in a sitting.

A lot of western Europeans already have it better. All of their jobs have 25 vacation days, mandatory work holidays and so on. Some jobs are also 36 hours with the extra 4 hours being added to vacation days so they have like 40-45 vacation days per year. Then there are also more social systems in place if you were to lose your job.

Yes you make more in the US and a lot more if you count big tech. But there's a trade off for that.

You will have clients that will bash you for changes in medication because greedy insurance kikes demand that you prescribe a cheaper alternative.

Yes most boomers have been thought not to question healthcare professionals and will happily obey. You'll also have some problems with druggies trying to get prescription medication. Some might break into the shop for chemical compounds as well.

Lastly you will also have annoying phone calls with doctors especially if they're prescribing something retarded. You still need to check a doctor's prescription and if things seem off or irresponsible you'll need to call.

Kind of a misconception. Since they are paid so little and work is drawn out like that they have to work until they're 70. With a high paying US tech job you can retire at age 35 with the same standard of living. Kind of a devil's bargain but if you think about it they're basically part time Dollar General workers, nobody ever said you HAD to work 40 hours in the US, you always had the option to live humbly and earn less like they do.

It's comfier than you think. I get paid 85k as a 25yo out of the the state cucks me down to 50k after taxes and insurances. BUT those insurances include health, joblessness, pension, etc etc etc.
Cost of living is also lower so you can save up a decent amount of money each month.
We also have zero student loans so that's not an issue either.
Depending on how you live, you can this save up for a house and straight up buy it in your 30s, or get a loan and comfortably pay it off until you're 50.
Retiring early is indeed not really a thing but from what I've seen ameriburgers don't have that either unless you work at some unicorn as a high ranking employee or FAANG

the european social net is so lenient you can not work a day in your life if you choose. for some strange reason, in all these countries the tax rate is nearly 50% and there is almost no possibility for an ordinary person to crack 6 figures. you can be a doctor living in a 900 sq foot condo. sounds great. and the best thing of all? there is no trade off for it, it's just about being a decent frickin human being for pete's sake.

Yes makes sense. A lot of this is not really "your problem" once you grow enough to have a shop and employ people though. Insurance, the premium you charge and your employees will deal will breakins and thefts, druggies and doctor calls. Angry boomers will have to go to "the manager" though.

Pension where? Most euro countries are raising their retirement age due to insolvency. I wasn't even referring to social security, you can easily retire early in the US due to our much higher incomes. The fact that you depend on a "pension" is the entire point, that's shackles and chains buddy.

If you want to earn more in Europe and retire early you can work as contractor / your own consultancy. It's more risk vs reward. Billing is in the range of 100-150 / hour, so earning 250k+ euros per year is possible. The tax climate for business earnings is a lot more favorably in most countries as well compared to being a full time employee. You lose a lot of those rights you have as a full time employee and have no entitlement to unemployment or compensation for sickness unless you take out an insurance for it.

> with a high paying US tech job you can retire at age 35

Yet the ones making those astronomical amounts are an extremely tiny portion of tech workers. Most of them are 35-40+ since lead devs, principal roles, senior architects earn the really ridiculous amounts.

>>105709989
Over here in my country (Netherlands) early retirement is very rare if people remain in full time employment. The ones who start for themselves in any profession in their 30s do make an amount of money that enables them to retire early. Most still don't as they get quite addicted to the earnings.

The only reason Americans don't retire at 45-50 is because they are idiots with their spending. I'm going to easily have enough by age 40. If you think about it it's the materialism and consumerism that enslaves people, if Americans were content with a European standard of living they could work far less.

where i live is considered a moderately expensive place to live, and it would run about 400 here. to give a price on it is a little complicated since they vary massively in the US. it probably varies quite a bit in europe too. but point being european houses are smaller and in the city in general, and the ones that arent are pretty expensive too.

theres a free website called zillow where you can actually look this up yourself. for example, you can put in the filters and scroll on a map to mass (the most expensive state to live in) and find results.

when europeans look at american houses to compare prices they only look at cities they have heard of which are the highest possible col and then think everything costs over a million. this is retarded. again, americans dont all live in cities and a lot do not want to. europeans tend to forget that we commute.

I never said that, dumbass.

Support level 1 so basically helpdesk? Even if it pays a bit more, it's probably a pretty terrible choice if you want to progress into something else.
I'm not sure if helpdesk really qualifies as experience for anything else except windows admin work and maybe some basic networking.
Most windows sysadmins I've met so far who came from helpdesk only know how to wrangle windows, nothing else really. Some have probably never written a line of code.

I have a feeling my manager is using some advanced tactics to see if I'm at my computer in the morning, working.

>get told to do a task by manager
>I message a group (my manager is a part of) about the task being completed
>the next morning he asks me about the task
>tell him I messaged the group
>oh must've missed it

It's like some advanced plausibly deniable probing. This isn't the first time either. Sometimes he'll book meetings at 9am with me when his calendar is completely free the whole day, while knowing I don't like starting work before 10am.

Managers of /TWG/
Do you do any of this?

Nah, blacks are too lazy, even the smart ones. They can definitely be chill guys in tech but that's part of the laziness they're not actually all that into it. The only 10x's I've ever met were white men because they're the only ones autistic enough to straight up identify with their work and product. Even elite jeets are simply there to make a buck and go home. The occasional white man will go home and dream about his work.

Not necessarily. The guy you want to be buddies with isn't necessarily your best engineer. I'm not saying I want to be friends with these people, I just know they were holding the entire company on their backs. They were the ones everyone goes to for answers and got 80% of the team work done.

The worst person in an office is the micromanaging timewaster, who combines annoying autism with lack of productivity both. The 10x is annoying, but very productive.

That is quite strange... He didn't specify why?

Usually people who are trying to cover up something are more wordy, so they'll give an explanation why they want a task done.

My manager saying he must've missed up really stands out. Normally people want to be seen as very diligent - they're admitting to being non diligent. Very suspicious.

He also probed for a status update on a colleague I was doing stuff with. Not cool.

You need him to be autistic, but on a leash. Think about how dull and annoying most of this work is. Anyone who somehow finds it interesting and is passionate about it needs to be utilized to the max. Because everybody else is grinding along in depression.

Not gatekeeping this gem anymore as I found a job:

I slowly built a network of jeets with freelance websites like Upwork and when I found a job I liked, I directed all of them to flood their application portal with bullshit resumes. One jeet would be instructed to apply for two hours a day with fabricated resumes and depending on how badly I wanted the job, I'd point multiple jeets to the same website. I can't actually confirm numbers, but one of them reported to me he put in 400 resumes in one week.

I'd do this for about a week, and then completely stop. After 5 business days of silence, I'd simply put in my real resume. This confuses the HR Nancy - "Finally, after all this bullshit, a REAL resume!"

After they get what I am guessing is 1,000+ resumes and the noise shuts off, they receive mine. It landed me more interviews in the past, and now I have a job.

I had a coworker that took the elon musk federal worker registration program to become an indie game dev. He was making 95k and will be making nothing in September.
But I heard recently someone managed to talk him out of it so now he's gonna start looking for another job in September.
Why not start looking now? I don't know. Hes a smart guy with programming I've heard, but I've never heard of anything dumber than leaving a steady job for nothing.

okay so i'm seriously considering quitting to working on some side projects I have a big one i really like i've been working on for 6 months that i'd need like 2 focused months or another 6 months doing it on weekends/after work

my logic is that
>i have enough money for years and be fine
>if I actually release full real ai project stuff I can get a much better job (im a frontend engineer with 5yoe and could probably make MUCH more money with these even if its just in getting another job)

I need a different perspective on a work situtation.
I'm working at a small company as a junior dev. So small, in fact, that I'm the only member of the dev team. I've developed some shitty android app and now my bosses want an iOS version. Thing is, there's no developer account for the company and they want me to set it up. I refused, since I don't know how to do it and it sounds like way too much responsibility for a shitter like myself. They don't even care about what password I use and have said that they "trust me", which to me feels like a set up to fuck me up with some legal bullshit if I ever leave the company.
Am I being a schizo? It should be noted that they had no infrastructure at all. I had to create a github organization for the company and I'm using my own hardware for work. It's a very lousy operation overall.

I have no clue how automated resume scanning works other than that it scans text for keywords.
If I use multiple columns like this to organize my resume, it's not going to throw off or get automatically rejected by the system, right? Same thing if I use color? Does it look bad if I use a template?
My current resume is entirely black and white because I'm told it's more professional, no columns, not using a template, I'm hoping that at a college career program or job fair I'll actually be able to get a human to look at my resume for once and I don't want them to trash it because they either think it's too boring/hard to read, or not professional enough.

It might, if any of the keywords are line broken by a column. Also remember that the raw text is fed into an LLM which will summarize your resume. If it sees something lik
>WORK EXPERIENCE SUMMARY Senior Software Engineer Senior Programmer with a hsitory of American Heart Association developing 18+ industry leading March 2015 - current Dallas, TX teams. With 9+ years of programming developed and maintained 100+ applications and Web API's experience. I am eager to invest in using Microsoft and other client languages. junior and mid-level developers Designed 50+....
Then it's going to produce a terrible output for whoever (if anyone) reads it and they'll just immediately discard it. Even if an LLM doesn't summarize it, the reviewer will probably only see the plain text version and have the option to view the original PDF. The best thing you can do to test it is save your resume as a PDF, open it, ctrl+a, copy, and paste it into a plain text editor like notepad, then replace all line breaks with a single space. That's what the resume parser will see. If anything ends up out of order, find a way to fix it in the original document.

Thanks, I'll try that out. Two column resumes are easier to read for a human but since everything is automated today I guess the only thing that matters is if ATS can read it

I remember putting "Google" on my resume because I guess I was taking advice from boomers on what to put on it and then going to some office on campus to get a free resume review and the cute girl there laughed at me for including it on the resume :(

Just make two versions: one that's ATS friendly with everything in one line, and another formatted prettier that you can print out or email to people who will look directly at it.

Huge tech layoffs are coming this year. You think last few years were bad? They were nothing compared to what's coming. We'll see some companies cut 25-50% of their developers. Market's about to be flooded with 200k+ tech workers. Amazon alone is going to layoff another 30,000

What's bad about it? The (lack of) information on it and/or the general layout and style?

Good news is I didn't get laid off. Bad news is the team they put me on is total chaos. Requirements change everyday. You can't trust the ticket: you'll just be told "no no no, don't do it that". Sprints are meaningless: they will randomly want you do do XYZ right NOW without regard to when the sprint ends. Basically, just put up and shut up and do what they tell you. It is impossible to understand the "English" these "people" speak. Is suicide the only option bros????

how do i work myself up enough to care about my job while sober as much as i get upset about things when i'm drinking

or do i gotta start drinking at work
Anonymous No.105716892 >>105717066
It's very simple
Stop caring about your job
You get paid to deliver results the means do not matter. No customer buys or uses a product because it used microservices. They just want button to do X, Y, or Z
Ignore any commands by anyone other than your superior but feel free to help your coworkers if they are chill
If they are dicks, let them fail
Ignore all meetings that waste your time
Literally that easy
