Good night, pepe.

I'm happy you faggots are unemployed.

learn a trade

>Clock in
>Already 6 notifications over the weekend
>Intern immediately messages me as soon as I'm online
can't wait to be working on that farm

And what are 25 words you'd use to describe yourself?

>>106220421
This is /twg/ you FOOL, not /utwg/

>>106220421
everyone here fantasizes about being unemployed

I just love the hustle and bustle of the workplace, I hope I can be in stand-ups when I'm 60 years old it just keeps me going

>>106220736
>anon do you have anything to contribute today?
>nothing to report

>>106220736
>when I'm 60 years old
speaking of which, do people really get to that age working in this industry? I mean in either IT or software industry. if so, how do people stay sane while having to learn new shit all the time? aren't tech companies some of the most age-ist of all?

>>106220950
>how do people stay sane while having to learn new shit all the time?
You become the guy who maintains the old arcane shit nobody wants to learn about

Java has become kobol

>>106220950
Yes, but getting hired past 50 gets increasingly difficult no matter how well you've kept up with the times. Ageism is real, and all the bean counters just kind of assume that you're a slow, hard-headed pile of deadwood that also costs a ton to hire because of all the now "outdated" experience.

Depending on company culture, it can take anything from a strong endorsement from a team lead to outright miracles to get hired past 50 and people in productive (non-managerial) roles in their late 50s to early 60s are usually the first target when a company wants to reduce their personnel costs. Being the maintainer for some key legacy system is probably the best shelter you can have at that point.

If you want to stay gainfully employed into an advanced age, you probably want to get on a managerial track at some point.

I will retire before 50 and work part time at a hardware store or garden centre

Can I learn programming to get a tech job while doing a full time job?
I'm 22 now.

anyone been on a team where people are quitting in droves? another guy seems like he's about to quit
do i just ride it out as long as i get a paycheck?

>>106221673
>do i just ride it out as long as i get a paycheck?
Would you rather be unemployed?

>>106221728
people quitting means more work and lower morale for the remaining people, maybe i do want to dodge that awkward shit but idk.

>>106220044 (OP)
My managers half assed implementing a solution which affects thousands of users and costs the company hundreds of thousands of dollars, and now that shit is constantly breaking to the point of insanity, I'm expected to be on call all the fucking time and fix something nobody knows how it works, without training, a clear incident response plan or anything. Should I look for a new job? It certainly feels like it. Oh and they would "love to hear our ideas on how we would organize a paid on call because the system is now so critical we need it monitored 24/7". Like bitch I'm not going to tell you how to sign my life away, that's your job.

>ask boss if I should do a bigger and uglier fix or a short fix that edits some core parts of the code

>thinks

>now it’s a week+ long fix that I already know wont pass testing because I know they already use X and Y separately
>explain this to him

Why is it so hard for managers to just admit they misread a zoom message? Holy fuck
Every time I ask for permission instead of forgiveness it bites me in the ass

>>106222807
>Should I look for a new job?
You should do your current one first — shit's still broken. And when am I going to get that thing I asked for?

Our "agile" leader keeps making the dumbest choices. Why do we have a weekly update on a monday fucking morning like first thing? How the fuck am I suppose to remember what I did last week? How do I know what I'm suppose to be doing for this week when I just fucking sat down at my desk. DO YOU WANT ME TO THINK ABOUT WORK OVER THE WEEKEND? DO YOU WANT ME TO THINK ABOUT WORK WHILE I'M HAVING BREAKFAST? like seriously I wish these fuckers would think for once.

>>106223103
It doesnt fucking matter. Personally I write it on the sticky notes app on friday and read it during the meeting.

>>106223126
FRIDAY IS SLACK OFF DAY LET ME STOP THINKING ABOUT WORK UNTIL THE NEXT MONDAY FUCK

>>106223138
monday is also slack off day (because it is horrible and we should all be allowed to just wait it out)

>>106223202
i swear every weekend I keep telling myself "hmm, maybe this monday I'll call off sick."
Come monday, and my bitch ass FOLDS and logs in anyways
FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

>>106221673
>anyone been on a team where people are quitting in droves?
do you know why they are quitting?
the solution is to either jump ship or to take advantage of your position. if the reason is that the company is about to go bankrupt, you should look for another job asap.

i wont go in tomorrow either

I wonder if anyone has ever been hired from a shitpost.

Hire this retard plz. I like da programming.

My work right now has been significantly more "Should I do this?" (Will IT care? Will audit care? How much will our stakeholders bitch if I can't get this feature out?) and less "Can I do this?" How do I avoid this or get out of this? I hate having to play politics and I don't want to get involved in this at all.

>>106223229
Why not:
>block off your monday morning with bullshit
>log in

>>106224384
That's what I usually do like I seriously don't work at WFH unless forced to in protest of the new RTO policy and layoffs but it does feel bad working from home not doing anything since it feels like you're always on edge for a random call or random email that'll ruin your freaking day. Plus just having a day off just feels relaxing because you can actually go out and not stay at home.

>>106221563
Tech job isn't just programming. There.

>>106224406
>Plus just having a day off just feels relaxing because you can actually go out and not stay at home.
true shit, I feel ya. I'm blessed with a *very* cool manager but I'm still unable to fully relax when I'm playing hooky because I'm afraid of getting a SHIT IS ON FIRE text

My honest advice, don't get into a no-code solution. Your business stakeholders will keep asking you to build mausoleums with a god damn carrot and you're going to be like what the fuck I thought I'm just taking care of the rabbits.

If I just lie about having a certification what's gonna happen?

>>106221673
Start applying to other jobs and see if you get any hits.
>>106223315
Listen to this anon. Assuming you're in the US, if you quit you won't get any sort of unemployment (unless you're quitting because they significantly changed the terms of your employment, eg. 'we're completely changing your job responsibilities' or 'we expect you to be available for 12 hours a day on Saturdays / Sundays'.). Stick it out while applying, take every cent you can from them.

I never had a negative job performance review even when I do more work or start to say fuck it and sack so much shit.
It's making me paranoid. Especially when I can't get bites in the job market place.
>t. 6 years of job experience.

>>106224594
I got it for not emailing people about taking PTO in addition to a fuck up. PIP's are no joke when your boss is looking for "White Glove Service". No warning, no talking too, just hey here is your PIP and follow the guidelines/SOP's for work. I threw it back at him that his guidance lacks paperwork since shit has changed month on month but nope he let me accept that PIP then he finished the SOP's stating how work should be done. It can be worse then this also.

>>106224619
in my defense i'll question work but if boss man wants it shrug okay i'll just do it.

>>106224653
Well your boss gives you a heads up atleast. I and others at work were blindsided by it.

>>106220950
IT aint that bad for old guys. A lot of them have relevant experience even with today's bullshit. The real kicker though is they stagnate and rather stay at a certain level of responsibility. You rarely find above 50yr managers. They prefer to give that up to younger guys with more willingness to accept mistakes. Older guys just want to act as a subject matter expert, train the new guys and grill.

Joining the military is the best lifehack they don't want you to know about. Free security clearance, education, and you get to smoke durkas by drone from an air conditioned office. So fucking GOATED

>>106221673
Tons of people quit/moved before I arrived at my team 3 years ago. From the original lineup of 6 engineers in 2020, only 1 remained by 2022. Since then, me and him are the only ones who persisted through more hirings and firings. Our direct manger changed 3 times until my OG teammate was promoted to a team lead so he manages me now. I'm still a regular engineer but in practice I am sort of an incompetent tech lead as well.
So yeah, powering through this shit can be worth it, especially in this dead market. Pic related is me from 3 years ago, how time flies.

>>106225357
in europe joining the military just gets you assraped by fags

why did people hate cubicles?

>>106225481
They hated the idea of going to work and hate what cubicles represented. No one actually hated office layouts back then they really hated the bosses that micromanaged the workspace and made it a pain to go from your desk to anywhere else in the building.

>>106225481
Cubicles look like shit to normies / people who have never worked in an open office for more than a week. Movies like Office Space / Fight Club did massive harm towards perception of cubicles as they portrayed them as a means of depersonalization and corporate anonymizing. If you ignore how comfy a cubicle is, that bleak maze looks depressing as fuck. It's no wonder it was an easy shift for management to implement exciting! new! open office plans! They're LITERALLY breaking down walls, leading to easier collaboration and! transparent coworking! You can literally SEE what your coworkers are working on!

>>106220950
For everything except networking. Tons of old grunts in this industry.

NO, FUCK YOU - KEEP AWAY.

>>106225537
but with a cubicle you can play doom on your work pc and no one will know

>>106225481
in addition to the various feefees of office culture and not having a real office, cubicle walls never look/feel good (its just one big lint collector) and disrupt airflow so cubicles are always stinky and hot and 99% of cubicle walls are super flimsy so they always are leaned over a little bit or are dented all over or got holes in em or dont lock together properly anymore

also cable management is a nightmare. not in your cube, just get a dock lol. but modern cubicles run power/ethernet through them so you have giant retarded looking stanchions going into the ceiling everywhere and it just looks like ass (and cubicle divider/furniture providers apparently dont have limbs so the power outlets and ethernet ports are always in stupid places)

even in that pic you posted i see a few fucked up cubicles with dents and scuffs

>>106225537
just build proper walls dude, or at least proper hard partitions

cubicles are just flimsy and cheap

>>106225429
I thought that was just Russia

>>106225579
I don't know how you could read my post and think that I'm anti-cubicle
>>106225581
>just build proper walls dude, or at least proper hard partitions
Why would management waste money, space, and time on proper walls when flimsy walls would suffice?
Why would management waste money and space on flimsy walls when bench desks and open floor plans will suffice? Now you can cram even more people into a small area, and it's easier than ever to make sure people aren't slacking off.

This is what we had before cubicles.
Notice that office work is for women because men are expected to be outside and work a real job.

>>106225608
>Why would management waste money, space, and time on proper walls when flimsy walls would suffice?
probably the same reason they all got air hockey tables and ball pits in the late 00s/ealy 10s. it looks good to investors and attracts "talent"

>>106220950
You keep your mind flexible by gulping down about 100 supplements and medications a day.

>>106225619
Yeah but if women took over IT and development the world would collapse

>>106225608
honestly I think companies only don't because they're rentoids and can't do renos that severe. every big company i've interviewed at had cubicle-like structures but made up of cleaply made but actual architectural partitions. you know the type, those shitty wood slat walls or just a big pane of glass in a frame. and its not like cubicles and cubicle furniture are cheap either

>He doesn't have cubicle walls in his home office
The first FEAR game and expansion had fire fights in office spaces. Kino gaming experience instead of pure streets/tunnels/sewers like most shooters back then.

>>106225639
>Author Thomas Hine speculated that the cubicle contributed to breaking the glass ceiling for women in the 1960s. Because women could be excluded from male-dominated open office "bull pens," cubicles allowed women to be promoted into middle management positions without making men uncomfortable.

>>106225619
>Desk space
>High ceilings
Dam i forgot why they did all of this. Turns out its entirely due to not having AC.

I earn 65,000€ in Germany and that is supposed to be an acceptable salary for my position and skill level. Americans definitely got overpaid those last few years, no wonder you have so much competition now.

>>106225702
You can't even afford a new set of tires with that income. Anon these gucci glasses ain't cheap.

>>106225702

>>106225720
high end across all professions? maybe
for dev? doubtful (especially in larger cities)

>>106225720
Salaries definitely took a dump those past few years. 80k€ is now considered the maximum you can earn as a senior/principal dev outside of the biggest city cores.
>>106225719
True, I can't afford much.
>>106225736
Neither can I.

>>106225745
what is high for devs in larger cities?

>>106225702
The thing is, $165k for tech is low in Seattle and nearly poverty in San Francisco. Check out https://www.levels.fyi/ for more accurate numbers.

Entry-level total comp at Amazon is $179k. SDE II is $275k, SDE III is $390k.

>>106225702
>>$165,000
that's $165k before taxes

>65,000€
after taxes

I'd guess what you are left after spending money to live is a similar amount, considering how expensive it is to live in some cities in murica, so you shouldn't really complain much and amerimutts really shouldn't brag too much...

>Join a new job
>half a year later, all my seniors leave leaving me with the bags.
>another half a year later there's a big company restructure fucking everything up.
I mean I only have really two nickles for the time this happened but that's pretty significant considering I've only had two actual office jobs.

Roughly accurate for US taxes. What is not counted here is extras like Medical ($150-900), Max 401k ($23k), IRA ($7K), and other random crap required like college debt, car debt ect.

>>106225778
>I can't really tell how high cost of living is the US.

Pretty high on the west coast. I live in Seattle, my "starter home" in the north end of the city was $615k when I bought it in 2018-- now it's worth about $750k due to market increases. The same house in a very desirable location would be about $950k. A larger home suitable for a small family (2 adults 2 children) would be $1,000,000 and about $1,500,000-$2,100,000 in a more desirable neighborhood.

San Francisco is even more insane. Last I really looked into it, home ownership costs were 1.5-2.0x higher.

>>106225833

This is the economics of major cities. Go to the south east, and you can get a 4 room home for 300k, but it won't be in a major town. And there will be less homeless and niggers.

Win win. Making anything north of 100k in the south east makes you pretty much a king.

Alligators aint the problem. Heat, mosiquos, the fact that its built like a brazilian favela with rich and ghetto mixed in.

florida man meme for when people are having a laff

but the real reason is that outside of miami and a few gated communities the weather and geography just suck. the state is very low-lying and on the ocean so it's mostly nasty ass swamps and even higher humidity than normal for a marsh land. it also has australia tier wildlife roving around towns, alligators, aids mosquitos, giant birds, all sorts of shit all raring to kill you even more than the methheads are. also it floods a lot, being so low-lying and already half-underwater anyway.

Honestly how do things even change in the West without killing all of these politicians and CEOs?

>Go to the south east
Most summers the temperature in Seattle peaks at about 85 degrees. There's almost zero relative humidity and I typically only use air conditioning 2-3 times a year. The region is also beautiful for the outdoors; in the winters I snowboard, the rest of the year I backpack / swim / kayak
> you can get a 4 room home for 300k
I feel like you can get much more home than that for $300k
>And there will be less homeless and niggers
Maybe so with the homeless, but there is no way that there are fewer black people in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Louisiana, etc.

Never work at small companies unless you are desperate.

Do tell ITlet are you on commercial internet? Alot of this sounds like they do not fund your section at all. If you have the equipment in the same room as them then you are forced to dump the AC to the lowest setting. If the equipment is off the shelf instead of from a big manufacturer then you are really hampering the needs of your customer.

Its what i imagine working IT for LTT is but they add even more work since that is a additional(no extra pay) job that some fat ass has to do at the company.

>>106226594
>If you have the equipment in the same room as them then you are forced to dump the AC to the lowest setting.
no they meant literally that it was too chilly at their desks and wanted the heaters turned on. idk why they think i control the thermostat, it's literally just on the wall in the CTO's office and every desk has a company bought Dyson "bladeless" that also has a heater in it

It's not a bad solution if you only need it intermittently throughout the year. Where I live I only need AC a few times in the summer and the previous homeowners left the window units. Installing a mini-split would cost tens of thousands of dollars in my area.

The beautiful weather and nice city layout is the reason why I want to move up to Seattle. Trying to move up there or Chicago and the fuckers won't take me in since I would need to relocate. They're offering $160k+ salaries and the moment they find out I need to relocate they back out. Fucking bullshit.

>>106226779
>nice city layout
We're situated on an isthmus and a major interstate bisects the city, our layout is horrible :( But I hope you can make shit work out to get here soon.

Honestly, I don't mind. Everything else is great up there. I think that city would make me less of a shut-in.

How do you deal with a difficult team? Their point contact changed and the new person is actually really getting under my skin. She'll throw a request from you from the business and will avoid ALL responsibility. She'll ask you to do part of her job for her and if you push back for more info or anything she'll constantly quote "leadership leadership leadership" is looking at this. Her requests are always vague as fuck but it feels that my boss and his boss boss are bending the knee and just go with "just deal with her" and honestly I'm having huge troubles keeping my cool in meetings with her now. She's so frantic and keeps wrapping us into her chaos I'm about to fucking snap and be like "If you're not going to provide shit to our team, then you can deal this shit on your fucking own." I'm even willing to pull back stuff and do more clarification with other stakeholders on her asks but then she'll be like "No I want to be involved." Man, I'm actually so fucking pissed holy.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little chutiya? I'll have you know I graduated top of my batch in IIT Bombay, and I've been involved in numerous secret hackathons for ISRO, and I have over 300 confirmed open-source contributions on GitHub. I am trained in full-stack development and I'm the top coder in the entire Indian tech industry. You are nothing to me but just another noob. I will debug your code with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this subcontinent, mark my words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the internet? Think again, bhai. As we speak, I am contacting my network of coders across Bangalore and your IP is being traced right now, so you better prepare for the cyber storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your startup. You're fucking done, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can hack your system in over 700 ways, and that's just with my Raspberry Pi. Not only am I extensively trained in Python, but I have access to the entire arsenal of Kali Linux tools, and I will use them to wipe your miserable website off the face of the internet, you little paanwala. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn bewakoof. I will DDoS fury all over you, and you will drown in it. You're fucking finished, kiddo. Jai Hind!

Appreciate the advice so far anon.
Any tips on managing this on the transition to a new job though? I just shut down and anytime she asks something stupid I don't even turn on my mic and just let the group meeting talk waiting for my response.

what jobs to avoid this mess bro. ;_;

Interviewing and I'm seriously wondering what's the best number to ask for during an interview. I feel like my salary right now is a little bloated for my role. (like written responsibilities for similar jobs are definitely making 10-20k less, but my actual responsibilities are wayyyy higher than what I'm making but I'm in the weird middle role where I don't have the experience and knowledge to actually get those type of jobs). I could ask for something matching my current job or I could ask for 10-20k less or I could be ambitious and ask for maybe 5k more. I don't know the best approach. I know it's more on the role but I'm a little desperate to leave and I'm starting to think a 5-10k shave off isn't too bad if I can get outta here...

>>106227577
Always ask 20-30k higher than the salary range. compare job titles across cities and aim for the moon if you find the highest one. Fuck perception confidence gets you paid.

>>106227577
Ask for 10% above your current role and they'll likely counter with something lower. Don't lowball yourself. They're not going to kill the interview if you ask too high, they'll just state what the high end of the pay band is for that position.

>>106227723
That's honestly what I'm scared of. My area is so fucking flakey here with ghosting and shit. I'd know because ironically I was on the hiring board for a coworker of mine and my god my mates were the pickiest motherfucker I've ever seen.

>>106227719
>>106227723
I'll try 10-15% more and wait for a lowball. thanks though.

>how do you cope if your job site doesn't have a cafeteria or convenient fast food nearby?
I cope by not wasting money on crappy "foods"

>i'm a FAT FUCK
we noticed

>>106229716
My first job had a very basic kitchen (microwave, fridge) and provided free milk. Every day, for 6 years, I took two 8oz milk cartons and used them to make a protein shake for my lunch. Two scoops of optimum nutrition chocolate protein, two cartons of milk.

I was in the office 4 days a week, 175 days a year after PTO. Two cartons a day, 350 cartons per year. I worked that job for 5.5 years, so 1,925 little cartons of milk. For free. About 120 gallons, or 1,030 pounds of milk. 15,400 grams of free protein courtesy of my work. Saved so much money over my fat fuck coworkers who constantly dropped $20-25 a day on the food trucks.

>>106221673
yeah me and the other guy who did everything quit this year. i retired and he got divorced/had to move out of his better halfs house. i thank him for his service alongside all my coworkers.

>>106229192
- take the project out of the experience section
- put your GPA if it's above 3.0
- the second project description says nothing, please fix it. you could even mention what sync primitives you used instead of just "tokio".
- Remove the start date for your schooling, and put Graduation Date: May 2025, or Expected Grad:
- use XYZ format if you can, show some metrics
- c/cpp ??. they're completely different

replace two of the projects with something you can talk about in depth. you can do something that looks impressive in a weekend with some help. Also, keep in mind the target audience. If your terminology doesn't match keywords on the job description, a recruiter might not have any idea what you're talking about.

>>106229824
yeah i was thinking of just starting to actually buy milk again and drinking lots of Ovaltine

>those little cartons of milk
i miss places that had those for free. same for the tiny cereal packets. at the time you feel like a patronized schoolchild but when you don't have free weird cereal you're like "damn i wish i had some free cereal.". i wish i had free cereal right now

Been full-time WFH since February 25, 2020. I'm west coast, my team (and company) is all east coast. No one expects me to be online any earlier than 8:00 am, and nearly everyone is gone by 2:00 pm my time, so those are my hours.

ESL here. wtf do americans call "takeout"? if I translate the word to my lang, I get "food that you buy to eat elsewhere". you can buy home-made-like food in my country. do american restaurants only sell fast food? no wonder you guys are fat kek

>>106230347

That's actually a great idea unironically. Not like they can fact check me. All of this shit is NDA proprietary anyway.

>>106230783
>wtf do americans call "takeout"? if
> "food that you buy to eat elsewhere".
yes, that is what the term means in america, you can also use "to go" which would be more typical for something like fast food. I'm not sure what you're trying to ask.

Hate my current job because of a recent change in management, going out job hunting, reminded of how much job hunting sucks, 3 months in now with not a peep.

>>106230896
If you have a LinkedIn be sure to toggle your "open to work" setting on and off every once and a while. If you reset it you show back up at the top of their lists.

>>106230783
>do american restaurants only sell fast food?
with rare exception unironically yes. you may be aware of the company Sysco -- they provide food to even high end restaurants across the US and Canada. their catalogue isn't 100% slop but it's pretty close. and besides, proper restaurants are pretty rare. there's a very wide gap between shoveled slop and proper food, and with only an hour and there not being any fucking buildings within 200ft of eachother on this godforsaken continent, proper food may take too long to prepare and eat anyway. hence >>106229716 question of "how do i eat when there's no restaurants close enough and i am too lazy/fat to bring leftovers"

but in terms of just the word, "takeout" includes proper food, not just chain fast food mcslop.

>>106230783
It's food that isn't meant to be eaten at the restaurant. Think Chinese food. If the restaurant is nice you probably want to eat inside it. Takeout places are more for the food and not the atmosphere.

>>106230972
i think this is actually true of all "activity" on linkedin. occasionally i'll read the articles i get sent as spam for a laff and then suddenly i get 90 more spam emails about some recruiter looking at my profile (definitely just ai browsing but apparently i went a few pages up just by clicking on a link)

>>106230984
Hmm that's interesting. This saying engaging with the bullshit on LinkedIn promotes your profile? It makes sense.

>>106230972
any other LinkedIn tips? I feel like it doesn't do anything for me regarding "networking" but I'm not very active to be fair (because I don't know how to interact with the platform)

>>106229716
I don't eat breakfast or lunch.

>>106230857
This is the kind of thing normies do all the time. If your parents raised you to be too honest, they did you a disservice

>>106229716
>how do you cope if your job site doesn't have a cafeteria or convenient fast food nearby?
nigger I'm 350 lbs and I cope with it just fine. Here's what I do. Breakfast I eat a banana if I can be fucked. Lunch I take a sandwhich in a plastic baggy (sometimes a salad or a wrap if I have lettuce to get rid of) and a pre-packaged thing of trailmix. Then when I get home that's when the real chowdown begins
>so every time i try to make extra dinner to have leftovers to bring to work i end up just eating it
For meals where I think I"ll overeat I usually put what I want leftover away before I start eating

>>106231090
The older I get the more I realize this is true. My mom drilled consent so deeply in my brain it took everything in me to get into treating women like holes even when they told me that's what they want.
Thinking back to how I got my current role I cheated the take home assignment working on it longer than the amount of time they wanted to allow. Cheating is the way.

>>106231196
>For meals where I think I"ll overeat I usually put what I want leftover away before I start eating
i try to do this but then i always end up just having it for breakfast

>>106230859 >>106230974 >>106230980
so I (>>106230698) was right, americans can't buy healthy foods. that's why you are all fat.

>>106231301
I'm 6ft 170lbs with juicy abs. If you have money, and you should since you're in /twg/, then you buy organic food and cook for yourself. Bonus points if you grow organic food in your own garden.
Eating restaurant slop is not good for you.

I feel bad for zoomer autists. Tech was the promised land for spergy millennials, the only place where they could make decent money and not be discriminated against for being weird.

>>106230110
why don't work as a QA automation / test engineer?

>>106231318
restaurants in my area cook healthier and more tasty food than I could ever do. I can "cook" a lot of shit (rice, potatoes, pasta, meat, eggs, ...) but that's one thing. cooking well and making tasty food is a completely different story for me.

>>106231349
What's the cause of it? More zoomer normalfags getting tech degrees thus raising the minimum standards? Millenial HR departments getting out of control? Gen X bosses repeating the mistakes of their boomer bosses?

>>106230668
>doable in a week but would it really help
yeah, it really would. After fixing your bullet points + adding a decent project, consider one-lining the project headers, and removing a bullet point from each.

more:
- chronological order and/or GitHub links for all of the projects.
- asking to rewrite your bullet points in XYZ format would be an instant improvement, please fix them. Even if you don't have specific metrics for something you did, you can indicate why it's important + what it accomplished.
- remove "target operating system", the colon is also misformated
- remove certificates section?
- if you want to larp "knowing AWS", add specific things like dynamodb, s3, etc.
- i don't know what location you're applying in, but the whole resume is really bad for any big american city. If you look at any swe resume review community you'll see the same advice I'm writing. It looks low effort

I hate my job and pray every day to get fired. Today my boss asked me if I ever took a vacation (I've been here like 5 years) before a meeting. I told him "No. I'm just waiting for you guys to fire me and set me free then I'll take a year long vacation haha". I was met with the longest most uncomfortable pause ever and then he looked to my new coworker and said he shouldn't be afraid to just take multiple days off whenever he felt like it. Be honest, how cringe? Pretty cringe, yes?

>>106231697

Literally simply stfu and make your own reality.

Ingrain this to yourself everyday that everything is a stepping stone to better opportunities somewhere down the line. Things are never linear. But what's linear is your tolerance and resilience. Nothing ever matters. Be a fuckup or not be a fuckup. Lift weights, hangout with your friends, date a tomboy, fuck her in the ass, lick her armpits, and grind battlefield 6. Sit up straight. Bring your mechanical keyboard to work. Put on anime keychain all over your backpack. Who cares as long as you're a speed demon and reliable at work.

I still mass apply and I've kept up my skills but it feels impossible to get interviews. I'm in a Wagie job now and I figure my best chance is to try and do something useful here.

>>106231962
what wagie job? admin? general affairs?

>>106231910
I assume you just recently got a job after graduating, congrats!

I would caution against defining this as tolerance and resilience. Suppressing these emotions means it will bubble back up in unexpected ways that are surely to catch you off guard. You can play mind games but you cannot control your subconscious like a switch. I hope it doesn't happen to you.

Warehouse lmfao. But the company has a branch that does some IT/dev work. They haven't hired anyone since I've been there but I figure if I could create something useful they would maybe give me a contract

>>106232017
>if I could create something useful
you are doing it wrong. start hanging out with the it guys, befriend them and suck their cocks. that's your way in

>>106232107
but the IT guys are the ones that cuck everyone's laptop and refuse to give out admin passwords. Fuck those guys

>>106232368
you will learn in it thats a good thing, you don't give out admin credentials to mouthbreathers

>>106232504
Let's just give everyone admin rights and let them run LLM-generated scripts. What could possibly go wrong?

Why do third worlders use "dear" and/or "dears" so often?

>>106227380
Just stay professional. No point letting it get to you now that you've already decided to quit.

You are a liability if given admin creds. One retard tried to have me promote their account to a domain administrator so that "he could map shares" faster even though we have a company wide user for that that's tailor made for mapping shares and accessing the repo.

There is nothing worsen than developers thinking they're system administrators because they built a computer at their home. I stay in my lane, you stay in yours and we'll have a good thing going on.

What's the IT sub-department everyone seems to bully at your workplace? We do a lot of shit to the Info-Sec guys for shits and gigs, though they always get back at us for it too.

retiring at 30 is my dream

>>106233027

we just talk about how the losers and idiots should join the fbi and send them recruitment emails

>>106233014
Your lane is bullshit and decides to swerve into mine too often for your own good. Never once have I run into problems that resulted in me breaking my personal machine due to being given admin rights

>>106233027
Fuck. You should see the crap our sysad team goes through.

> developers push something retarded to prod
>sysad tickets blow up
>nothing works WAAAAH WAAAAAH
>look into event viewer
>developerfuckup.jpg

These idiots routinely ignore basics of networking and domain relations, they keep hard coding IPs like apes and then cry that nothing works because our development talent pool is comprised of people who genuinely can't do anything other than code.

>DBA team optimizes queries to ease the CPU load
>all our nodes start going down one after another OOMing like crazy
>DBA team cries about hardware constraints
>nodes still have a 40GB mem overhead during the incident

It takes exactly 3 hours of convincing each of these apes to roll back the absolutely disgusting changes they've made, at which point prod works normally again. I have no idea what the fuck they're doing but it's nothing good.

Also

> no budget for a sandbox machine
> updates go directly to prod
> have to stay up late into AMs durinf update weeks

It's an absolute shit show, no one respects us but will happily use our powershell prefabs and tack on work onto our backs, when things go sour we're always at fault and when things are running fine we're lazy bums with nothing to do.

Fuck you Jason you sleazy cunt.

>>106233061
Okay, but you will if given the opportunity. Again, you're a liability in sysad's eyes and it's much easier to give you access to what you need and make sure your juvenile ass doesn't chimp out than it is to clean up your mess after you eventually get compromised/break shit.

Any sysad worth a dime won't be touching code, not paid for that, simple as.

>>106233097
>hard cording IPs like apes
I refuse to believe this, especially since they go directly to prod, I cannot fathom this level of idiocy... ok, well I can but I want to live in denial.

>>106233116
Usually happens on Thursday pushes after HR whips the dev team into sprints and everything gets hastily done. Seniors stopped giving a shit and I am 100% certain no peer reviews are conducted on Thursdays.

>>106233115
>Any sysad worth a dime won't be touching code, not paid for that, simple as.
They also won't produce anything of value beyond basic infra

>>106233013
The thing is recently im more well adjusted and matured than my previous self months and years ago. Things starts to click in my head on what works and what not, why i think like that, why i experienced this. Gave me the courage to be a better person, work faster, not care so much but it's gooning to my AI girlfriend that i cant fully quit.

>>106233140
This is true only in the world of fantasy or massive companies which I have yet to work for. If my current job was only building infrastructure on up to date specs i would be living the dream. The truth is that most companies deny any significant budget allocations for the infrastucture so you're working with a jigsaw puzzle where all the pieces are chewed through/mangled, nothing should be working but through sheer bullshittery and at our general surprise it is.

start doing this.

I missed one configuration when monitoring the setup of a test. Nobody even asked about it or noticed it until long after, not the person who set up the test or even the person analysing the results. But it meant the test was invalidated, which means reworks and delays. I could make excuses about how this was a failure of a weak process, but it was my responsibility.

>>106233139
Why would HR be involved in a sprint?

>>106232017
How do you have the ability to start automating stuff? Like does your brain goes aha and then goes to make a script or something? Serious question because i want to be able to do this too in case i work again in a non tech savvy company

The latter for sure. I don't know why they keep trying to outsource forever? But it feels like the trend is finally reversing as they realize AI isn't the silver bullet they were promised. It will write code for you but turns out writing code was only part of the job.

Basically I'm trying to learn as much as I can, kind of by proxy, about that side of the company, and look for somewhere I could provide a system to shave off even just a couple man hours per week or something like that

i fucking hate my job
no one communicates about anything, ignores everything in git just pushes his own shit
i have to fucking micro manage everything or shit just breaks
i am not even getting paid for this FUCK OFF
is it THAT FUCKING HARD TO JUST COMMUNICATE

Sounds like a great place to work if you're a junior though.

What!? That's a horrible metric for performance. Penalizing communication is the dumbest management idea I've ever heard.
