I figure the easiest way would be to work two jobs, but I can’t find anyone else who will hire me since they expect me to be the next john carmack. Is networking the next option and I just ask them to contact me if they’re hiring?

Practicing yeetcodes (I look at the answers if I don't get it in 5 minutes) and relearning C++. My current job is stable but it teaches me NOTHING. I have 3 YOE and nothing to show for it. I have yet to see a job posting I will be suitable for out of the thousands I checked. Sure I can just lie my way into an interview but if they have any shred of competency then they will expose me on the spot.
I am relearning C++ because literally the only job posts I see where they don't demand expertise with 10000 libraries and frameworks are just C++ jobs that just want familiarity with Linux and multithreaded coding lol.

That's actually mercy and integrity on their part.

The whole point of a PIP is to either get an employee to resign on their own, or to manufacture additional reasoning to put on the paperwork when they fire you. Firing you was a foregone conclusion from the start, the PIP just helps them out with it legally.

It's like a field sobriety test. If you're asked to take one, it means that the cop has already decided to arrest you, and just wants some additional manufactured "evidence" to cover his ass first.

i'm a senior engineer but i'm the de-facto tech lead for this team. the team's manager is non-technical and relies on whatever estimates i give him and there's pressure from his boss and other teams to get shit done fast.

aside from both of us, the rest of the team is juniors who can't code or test for shit who have no business working in tech at all IMO. They confidently open PRs with bullshit that's obviously untested and would totally break stuff in prod, and i have to babysit them while also hitting tight deadlines, so i end up having to pick up their slack as well as all the feature work i have to complete.

i've brought it up to my manager but he thinks i'm exaggerating when i tell him how inept these juniors are. if i leave this job they're totally fucked lmao

hell, if you know they really depend so much on you, why don't you just leave after telling them that you feel like you're doing 90% of the job and not being well compensated or some shit, but that your door is open or whatever? that way they will have to experience the failure and feel the pain, and will probably call you back when they realize you were right.

it's a ton of work here but people generally respect me and my technical opinions so i'm inclined to just eat shit until the market gets better, i'd rather leave on good terms and maintain my connection with my manager than burning that bridge. you never know who may help you find work especially in this market

I didn't work my whole shift a couple of weeks ago so I had to work 2 hours today.
I woke up, did some exercise, then turned on my laptop, set up the hardware based mouse jiggler and read for a bit, then have breakfast. After that I cleaned my room and read a bit more.
Out of the 2h the amount of work I did was 0.
I have no regrets of this. My boss is a greedy guy that only raised my salary when I got offers from another companies and always takes external consultants opinion over mine even after being proved as midwits.
I don't think my job is properly appreciated so I started slacking off. I have no intention of leaving though, I'm just going to do next to nothing while I keep cashing my paycheck.
If they fire me I'll get severance plus two years of paid unemployement so I don't really care.

much less competitive, more human and it sounds like your classmate already got on a management track which is better than what 80-90% of the SWE swamp will end up with.

During the week there are more /twg/ threads, all hitting bump limit. Meanwhile, /utwg/ takes days to hit the bump limit. I must admit their number went up and they no longer get archived before the bump limit. It was a regular sight to see them go under with under 200 replies, now they always stay alive until the bump limit even if it takes days.
