stop telling me to join the military

>>106282144
Doing tech stuff in the military sucks. I wasn't one, but I was a contractor who worked with a lot of enlisted/officers who were. They seemed miserable. It's no different from doing tech work elsewhere, except you have to wear an uncomfortable uniform and salute people all the time, for less money.

>apply to startup two weeks ago
>"due to headcount, the team has decided to move forward with current applicant pool"
>job reposted
>higher pay and more demands
>reapply
Oh boy, let's see if they're actually hiring or just data mining

>>106282177
>uncomfortable uniform
combats are literally just nomex pajamas bro

>>106282177
tech stuff in the defense industry, on the other hand, is amazing. i love my job

>>106282199
Apparently, most companies only post job openings to:
1. Like you said, gather data on the potential applicant pool
>"some day when we want to hire, we'll have all these poeple we can contact"
>they never will
2. Show fake growth to investors
>"we're doing so much business we need all these new people!"
>they're probably bleeding money instead
3. Imply to their currently over-worked employees that more help will be coming soon
>"we're hiring a lot, you'll have wlb soon!"
>they will not hire anyone
4. Imply to their current employees that they're replaceable
>"look at all these applicants, work harder of we'll fire you and get someone new"
>this they actually will do

for much of the past week, about half of what i've written has been in assembly. there are cool jobs out there, if you know where to look

>>106282333
in my experience, everything MILITARY GRADE either is a ridiculous embedded solution that only two people in the world understand (and neither of them documented) or is some abject piece of shit that requires you run it in a very specific Windows XP vm and only works with one specific model of keyboard from 1977 despite being literally just a winforms application with one(1) random snippet of BASIC in there (instead of using normal serial port drivers to control the actual physical device it's hooked up to they use PULSIN and PULSOUT) and the console running the thing is a giant arcade machine esque HARDENED TERMINAL that is 99% empty and when first installed was held closed with velcro tape.

>>106282448
lmfao
i can't say that's reminiscent of my experience at my job

>>106282273
you forgot
>hr retards pretending to work and in the process of doing so make everybody who is involved, internally and externally, miserable
instead of the good old days where they would just shop online or read shitty buzzfeed articles and just half-assedly forwarding the first few applicants in the pile when push comes to shove and the hiring manager actually needs an ass in a chair, they treat their job like it's a dating app where they inflate their ego by rejecting as many people as possible

has there ever been a male HR person/""recruiter""?

>>106282488
The truth is even dumber. These HR Karens think they're upholding the peaceful global order or something.

It's my one year anniversary of working at an enterprise so I wrote a blog post on my experience so far. Curious to hear what people think.

She has a filter on that's supposed to make your iris stand out, but it's kind of glitching out over her bottom eyelid which makes this weird effect.

I got a new remote job 3 months ago and it has been going well and im enjoying the work that I am doing and management has said they like my work as well. But i haven't talked to or met a coworker irl since 2018 and decided to attend the company meetup next week where they fly me out to some state that i cant even conceal carry in. I know one coworker who is my level of sperg/autism but idk im worried i might embarass myself

>>106282594
Whilst my HR is female my recruiter was a white male and all the other people who interviewed me were also white males

your thoughts on .net?

>>106282594
hr no, recruiters yes
recruiters are basically sales people, when you dont know, teach, when you can't teach, teach PE, when you can't teach PE become a sales guy

>>106283105
>when you can't teach PE become a sales guy
odd because all the retarded salesbros ive met have all been big into rock climbing

>boss sent a nondescript team meeting invite at 11pm for a Monday afternoon meeting with the entire team

I'm got the best metrics on the team and no negative feedback- surely I'm fine, right?

>>106283214
>surely I'm fine, right?
You are not fine, remember me on Monday.

>>106283214
this is me, your manager speaking. we are actually cleaning up the team's culture and determined you are the gayest nerd on the team currently. i will see you monday. sayonara anonsan.

>>106282089 (OP)
Can someone explain to me why the people managing this website and implementing changes get paid for this dumb shit?

>>106283214

>>106283294

>>106283214
Get as much severance as you can get.

>>106283214
It must be absolute hell not being a top-performer and not being critical to your company's or at least your sector operations... I have no idea how you guys half-ass your way through jobs: you spend half the time slacking off and the other half worrying about if your manager noticed you slacking off.

You're probably not as critical as you actually think.

>one last question before we finish the interview
>do you consider yourself a star wars person or a star trek person
Fucking humiliation ritual. My answer was
>I am more a farscape person

>>106283350
I was the tech lead of my last team and I got fired becauae I could not get along with my spergistic boss. I left them a very robust well-documented program, and I traimed their juniors to be self-sufficient, but it didn't matter.
What I don't understand is people like you who think being a good goy is something to be proud of. You're the kind of autist who brags about getting good grades on high school, as if it was hard at all.

>>106284168
>I got fired becauae I could not get along with my spergistic boss.
Highly relatable.

I'd get about half a year of pay if I get fired during or after september.

>>106284237
What's special about September?

>>106284235
It really does come down to likeability. Anons, break out of the spergtastic mentality that is meritocracy as soon as you can.

>>106284168
I feel ya man. I couldn't get along with my lead since he was shit at communicating. The principal had to separate us since he noticed he was getting unnecessarily aggressive with me. At the end, I led projects, most of my ideas made to production, and was mentoring junior engineers but that didn't matter since the guy was a gatekeeper and got me indirectly PIP'd and then laid off.

>>106284090
should've said lotgh person

>>106283350
You'd better be making at least 200K for us to let you parrot this cuck shit

>>106284265
I'd have been employed for 5 years at this company

>>106284378
>>106284168
>>106283350
honestly not knowing that job success is dictated by likability is a glaring sign of being a total fucking junior
i'd even say it even shows lack of life experience, this is not exclusive to codejeetery only

>>106284445
I was liked by everyone in the office except by that one lead. My layoff came off as a complete surprise across multiple teams and I was the one that broke the news to everyone. Office politics are weird.

>>106284505
>I was the one that broke the news to everyone
wut
idk what kinda scum org you are in but that sounds like a pure humiliation ritual
in any company i've been, getting fired means you are out instantly, you don't hang around in slack saying hey guys im getting fired

I’m losing my job soon. Is the job market really as fucked as people say. 5-6 yoe mediocre jaded burnt out full stack web dev

>>106284568
Dude, to this day I don't even know why they handled it how they handled it. I still had access to their shit a month after I was laid off. I had to remove myself from all their channels myself because of the security risk. They also left multiple projects high and dry since I was the only person on them. The whole thing felt like a forced action with zero planning.

>>106284445
>>106284505
Yeah, it really only takes a single person.

My fortunes shifted as soon as I got a new manager. Everything was peachy with the old manager, new manager comes along and suddenly there's a bunch of issues.

>>106284621
I was sacked almost 2 years ago and my AWS account is still active with my old company lmfao.

>>106284168
Almost happened to me. Guy was way to into the idea of white glove work without consideration of how the work is actually done. All of his ideas were made up on ideas he made instead of reality. More importantly we all did work just fine but he had zero tolerance for mistakes. I got a PIP just from a minor mistake, no warning or anything before just hey here is your PIP.

>>106282177
You should have stayed in lol. Dod contacting is the promise land of tech.

>>106284594

>>106284594
Listen man i still have a job. I am trying to get my savings up to 24 months of income at this point. Shit is beyond fucked for all IT/Tech related jobs.

Listen up marine, this ain't no candy ass mission. This is a full on search & destroy operation. We're going to be bombing those commies back to the stone age, and you need to sell me your strongest potions potion seller. Potion seller, I'm going into battle and I need your strongest potions.

Is there something on LinkedIn that's the opposite of the "Looking for Work" banner? I want recruiters to stop messaging me.

>>106285189
Try using this.

Do you have a Book of Grudges, /twg/?

>>106285219
I haven't read a book since... Fuck, when was the last time I actually read a book cover-to-cover? Ah right, yeah it was in 2021 when I had read Masters of Doom.

i had an interview where there were 5 people bombarded questions at me. they were at the lvl where i can see through their experience. their experience is only a little better than mine in a certain area due to the fact theyve been there for years. theyve pretty much plateaued at their position. i find it ironic how i can tell they got the job knowing nothing about their position and is now trying to find a senior lvl person to fill their entry lvl job. theyre pulling the ladder up. ill decline this offer for another one that has more potential.

>>106285308
I had an interview like that but it was like 10-12 people asking me all kind of questions, from multiple subfields (from security to dev), and they were expecting me to be a rockstar while paying scraps. they used automatic tools to do their job... so I can imagine they were not as good as they wanted me to be.
in the end they rejected me, though I never actually talked to them beyond the interview, but only to the external recruiter, and only told me after I criticized the requirements and low pay, so I'm not really sure if the client rejected me or if it was the recruiter herself.

>>106285219
yea. youre in it for fucking up this thread

>>106282916
I couldn't handle the office after 3 years remote. Left after a month.

>>106284771
What if you want to work with smart or ambitious people?

>>106284445
Likability isnt my problem, liking others is

>>106285471
plenty of those around

>>106284771
I make more than twice as much in big tech, and I enjoy the work more. It might not last, because of H1Bs, but whatever, I'll have enough to retire comfortably in my 40s

>>106285355
i hate this so much. they want senior lvl experts for their entry roles which pays so little. i think ill end up declining some offers if they give off disingenuous vibe like that last interview.

I was unemployed for a year and it was great. I exercised, worked on some side projects, caught up on some old vidya, TV shows, and movies, read a bit... I probably could have stayed unemployed for good if I kept my spending in check, but I wanted some more financial cushion, so I got another job

well it's boring half the time when I don't believe in the project I'm working on. The other half of the time I'm really engaged and productive.

I think I just got banned from Hackernews again. There's something about ticking dang off that just feels so bad.

>>106281665
to this guy from last thread: 50k for 'IT' is way below par even if you're Helldesk or junior Local IT at a branch office. salaries for any *quality* mid or senior position is going to be between 70-120k. don't FUD like that - it's makes you seem like you have little experience or you're disgruntled.

to the guy asking about school: the job market is bad right now. most managers budgets are tight, so it will be difficult to start without a degree. don't listen to FUD though about 'dedicating your life to IT'. in the end it's just a job (with higher earning potential and some learning). unlike what most people think, knowing everything isn't that important, but being likeable and easy to work with is. A Cybersec degree with emphasis on networking would solid. networking is the foundation of most systems. really talk to people in the university department and see what kind of internship opportunities pop up in your area or if they have co-ops. Most of the year round interns I've had or met get converted to FTE.

>>106287329
50k at a 30% tax rate leaves you 35k, or almost 3k/month. if you're a single retard 4channer you can probably live comfortably on that. stop getting all your salary assumptions from teamblind trolls

>>106287471
>or almost 3k/month
You could live on that if you eat nothing but rice and beans and live in a cardboard box.

>>106287471
did you read the post I responded to? anon was uniformed on pay or really anything in the field. the range I posted is pretty common at any decently sized company. while 3k/mo isn't bad in a low to mid COL area it's still below what the reality is in the field.

all i want is for people to do the job they were hired to do. if they are incompetent but nice, it just makes me feel bad to tell them they really should learn the required things and makes me do their job for them, because it's less hassle than trying to teach them basics. so i guess you are correct, being nice makes your job easier

I had an interview like this at Sky (the TV program provider). I aced every question because the role was what I had been doing for 10 years. The manager said “he had a lot of good applicants” which I actually laughed out loud at since I knew 99% of them were lying jeets. I could tell the manager got offended by me laughing at that, he was some Fagott Hispanic.

I don’t hear anything for 2 months. I assume I didn’t get it. I see the job reposted on LinkedIn several times, each time with 100+ applicants (this is in Germany) which means they are all jeets. Eventually Sky reaches back out to me asking for another interview. I decline and tell them they have plenty of good applicants.

>>106287607
I'm not saying 'don't be competent', but rather 'don't sweat it if you don't know some things'. how many fraudulent people do you come across in your job? if it's a lot then you need to blame management. if they're not frauds and they don't really know as much as you why not determine if they're trainable and try to teach them something? you do people no kindness by doing difficult work for them nor does it really benefit you to do more work then you're assigned.

I think its time for me to embrace neetdom, at least for a little while

I only drink tea.

I started my masters program in digital forensics and so far its a meme. It's only the first class, but this is some super basic stuff that should have already been covered in a bachelors program.
Every reading assignment so far has been authored by a poo and its JEETcore word vomit with hints of not really understanding the core concepts.

Its distracting.
For example, 9/11 was called the "Twin Tower" attacks and was used as an example of a cyber attack because computers played a role in the hijacking and the terrorists were using computers like everyone else.

Are Masters just a HR checkbox for other positions?

>>106291370
maybe.
its not grueling work, but I've completely lost interest in it. there's no meaning or enjoyment in it for me any more.

>>106291566
People tend to convert to other subjects for masters so they start them off easy going.

>>106291583
happens to me every year, but usually lasts like 3 months so just take it easy for a while

>>106291566
some masters are just cash-cows for universities. if you're not in a serious program this may be the quality you can expect throughout.

>>106292287
Gitlab, GitHub, Actual Git
You know they have differences right?

>>106292318
Yeah, only one of those is Git.

The bank I work at has AWS Architects. Their entire role is to repeat back to our teach the choices we present for configuration and architecture of our infrastructure. Literally repeat back to us until we vote on which path we take.
We already have POs, scrum masters, team leads, now this.
>of course they are indians

>>106292333
Wow someone better contact Gitlab and GitHub then, tell them their product is redundant and not needed. We got a badass here who will self host git.

>>106292362
You think that GitLab and GitHub are Git?

>>106292369
You’re right they are nothing like Git, they just have Git in the name for fun and use all the same commands and theory of branches and versions like Git.
Thank you for autistically arguing over nothing and proving you know nothing.

>>106292454
They host Git repositories. They're not Git unto themselves.

>>106292454
>You’re right they are nothing like Git
Correct.

>they just have Git in the name for fun
They have "Git" in the name because it works with Git, not because it is Git. Is Ruby on Rails the same as Ruby? Is Docker-Compose the same as Docker? Is awscli AWS?

I think GitLab and GitHub also use JavaScript, which I think is a Java.

>use all the same commands and theory of branches and versions like Git.
A lot of things that are not Git use branches and versions. Is for example SVN also Git?

>>106292646
>GitHub also use JavaScript
Funnily enough, I think GitHub used to run on Rails as its backend. It might still, I don't know for sure.

But this anon is correct: Git is an open source version control software. You run it on your machine to do version control for a directory and its contents, or you can run the repository hosting software yourself. GitHub and GitLab are services that host repositories for you, and also provide lots of other nice features. Fun fact: pull requests are NOT part of Git, that's a layer above that GitHub created, same with forks, issues, CODEOWNERS, README.MD, and even fucking stars (gasp! I know!). You can run git locally in a directory without connecting it to GitHub, GitLab, or any remote repositories at all if you want. I do it all the time for little experiments.

>>106291069
During the workweek, overnight cold brew or my Bonavita drip pot. Before I was perma-WFH though I would grind coffee in the morning before heading to work, then I would brew with my kettle and French press I kept in the kitchenette. Cumbersome, but it gave me an excuse to get away from my desk, and it beat the fuck out of Maxwell House or paying $5 for Starbucks.

>>106292740
>It might still, I don't know for sure.
It is.

Shopify is also a Rails app as far as I know, so maybe Rails operates at scale just fine.

>>106289383
>It's Sunday
...and how does that impact working?

>>106291069
I love coffee, but I have no clue what, how and why. I enjoy the fancy coffee machine at work but also >>106291108.
I usually make ristretto with a lot of milk.
When someone else is making, I just ask for Americano.

>>106292282
Apparently, Durga is hated by Indian coworkers.

>>106292287
The git itself is 1, but usually people host git instances with gitlab, gerrit or gitea.These have some form CI/CD, permissions etc etc.

So this is kind of like text editor vs IDE.

>>106292867
>Shopify is also a Rails app as far as I know
I remember at my last job, we were a Rails app and used some of the gems (libraries/packages) that Shopify had open-sourced. They were buggy as fuck, but still pretty helpful.

>>106292869
>...and how does that impact working?
I ain't working on a day off.

>>106292273
I check all those except prometheus and terraform (scope creep had our team taking on duties way beyond what our name would imply)

>>106293143
I'd recommend learning Terraform. It's useful and quite widely used. Also a lot better than some shit like AWS CloudFormation.

>>106293410
AWS CloudFormation gave me AIDS. I was using Severless at the time (which converts its own format into AWS CloudFormation) and even then, some the error messages I'd get were so fucking vague.

>>106290383
rare canadian dub

>>106293452
Serverless might be the only way I'd ever use CloudFormation, and that's only because it does the stacks for me. But yeah, even then it can cause headaches.

Terraform is much better in that aspect. Far from perfect, but still better.

can't you simply use a big moka pot?

>>106293826
i didnt know they made them that big. still, i am not a coffee snob and would probably prefer the fire n' forget nature of an electric drip coffeemaker (and that i can get one for 10$ at any thrift shop) more than i'd enjoy the increased quality of a stovetop percolator Moka Pot(tm)

>>106294165
nope. they sent pre-meeting minutes out. it's literally about addressing why the office is stinky and people seem grumpy and they identified that we are an office of actual sweatlords. "casual friday" is every day until whenever wildfire warnings stop, a couple models of desk fan have been added to the points-based office supply ordering portal, and this meeting coming up is about seeing if our server closet AC can be repurposed to cool at least some areas of the building since we moved to cloud and the "server room" is basically just a very cold closet now with one POTS rack in it for internal phones that never got removed because they're built into the concrete walls (and are too kitchy to get rid of)

honestly it seems more like the workplace culture than anything. my last backend job had a lot of seniors who would get on your ass if you didn't cover all your bases, and desu i was into it. the oldest, grouchiest senior at that place usually backed me up when i sperged out over something. but so far every other workplace has this culture of not really giving a fuck until something goes bad in production. maybe the difference is that my last backend job had a mature product and these other ones are just figuring shit out as they go

That's good that the grifters are sifting their way out.

If your goal for your working life is to build and work on interesting things, absolutely. There are so many opportunities for new things right now its insane.

If your goal for your working life is to coast a bit for the purposes of collecting a comfy stable paycheck, then yeah you're going to not have as great of a time.

To hack it in the corporate world, you need to be a grifter. The social media pathway is preferable to me because you don't have to kiss ass to midwits.

Anyone else's boss asks them for reports that are vague and you can tell they don't really have a purpose? Mine's been doing it a lot and it's just annoying.
