Friendly reminder that 'programming' is just a skill, and not a proper occupation.
>>101508222checked!>>101508269stop caring, anon
>>101508222how do i get job?
>>101508269Could be worse

>>101508222If I consumed the amount of alcohol I would need to willingly participate in whatever the fuck it is they're doing my reaction time would exceed the duration of my short-term memory. >>101508615Wait, are they telling you who they hired instead of you? holy shit lmao I mean she does sound very qualified (that is not at all my field, I could be completely wrong). This is honestly the nicest rejection E-mail I've ever seen, but I still find it hilariously awkward.
>>101508222There's literally no point in working anymore the United States and the western world at large is going to collapse within less than 2 years and there's going to be a major world war.
>>101504768anon, wait for the summer to end before calling it quits. september-december are usually the months hiring restarts, I'd guess (I'm not american and I live on the other side of the globe)
Wish gen Z boss would rub her pantyhosed feet all over my cock
>>101508734It's not nice at all, they're rubbing it in anon's face how unqualified he is compared to the person they ostensibly hired (who may not even exist), and suggesting that he apply some other time for an internship because he's not good enough for a real job.
>>101509195I'm not OP but I'm in a similar boat. Hard not to feel anxious about the growing gap in employment in tech.
>>101509567just tell recruiters you've been freelancing in the meantime. and maybe do so.you know you can do stuff by yourself and learn too, right? that also can count as experience IMO.
>>101509567Just use my excuse: say you were working on trying to turn a side project into a business, but haven't been getting much traction so you're looking for a new job again.Of course... this only works if you actually have a project, or if they don't ask about it.
i work in a lumber yard and make 23 dollars an hour.i own a house, f150, and 3 motorcycles.was it worth it, wagies?
>fail job interview>get charged as punishmentHow do you respond?
>>101509640>>101509728I have completed 2 side projects and abandoned another. I've had some success mentioning these in recruiter calls when asked wtf I've been up to. Should I add these to my resume?
>>101509826of course you retard
>>101509801No way that's real. Also why did the 3 morons waste 2 hours before realizing the retard didn't know anything. Would have taken a 30 minute phone call, and that's just the cost of business, literally what the HR team should be doing.
>>101509859... but only if you need to fill the space (no, not the experience part, but the blank space in your resume). you shouldn't care if you have enough experience
>>101509338Same tbqh famlam.
still trying to get my first job
How do I get a Gen Z boss gf?
>>101509880>No way that's real. Thats Australia for youAlso why did the 3 morons waste 2 hours before realizing the retard didn't know anything.I guess cherry picking or labelling retards is their business model
>>101510134work for a company that will fail in 7 months.
I'm so fucking glad bros that the company i work for didn't use crowdstrike, and i feel so sorry for all the sysadmins where they used crowdstrike.
about to quit my 300k faang job with nothing lined up, yolo
>>101509151Just 2 more weeks right?Nothing ever happensAnd i hope it stays that way, i worked hard to be a dev and i dont want to see it gone
>>101509741>> i work in a lumber yard>> was it worth it wagies?Yes? I dont want to work in a lumber yard lol
>>101510394same but its a 500k job. fuck work.
>>101510518are you quitting to take a break? or going to immediately start interview prepping without onewhat do you plan on saying when recruiters ask why you left?
>>101508222>>>101508269>>101508615since when do they write rejection emails like this?
>>101509402>It's not nice at all, they're rubbing it in anon's face how unqualified he isI THINK aimed for "don't feel bad, you were competing against truly exceptional people".Still awkward, though.
>>101508615>year year yearyou just got rejected by an illiterate pajeet lmao>woman>all of those credentialsfake.
>friend went to switzerland and now makes 2xfeels so unfair
>>101510990Did he learn German / Swiss throat sounds?Would love to move there but German grammar make me want to gut myself. And my first language is even close to German.
>>101510394why?
bump
>>101509801>erlangthis is certainly fake. any company that has erlang in its tech stack would never act in this way
>>101510757>what do you plan on saying when recruiters ask why you left?I took a sabbatical for personal and professional growth
*opens thread**sees OP video**cringes and closes thread*I'm gonna write in my diary about this so I don't avoid my emotions
realistically what do I need to do to get into faang starting with zero experience
>>101511986Get shotgun -> kys yourself -> reroll -> if born in third world country, choke yourself on the umbelical cord -> redo until born in US -> either use DEI initatives or a middle upper class upbringing to get into a good uni -> work hard at internships and grind leetcode -> apply for a ton of jobs til you get a FAANG job
>>101511942Elaborate
>finish my bachelor’s >grind as much LeetCode as I can What else should I add to the checklist so that I can find a job shortly after graduating?

>>101509801>How do you respond?I wouldn't respond at all. I would just never pay them or take their calls.

>>101512637oh shit forgot to say, it's a lie because im unemployed as FUCK. no one wants to hire me unless i sell my soul, not even at fast food. fuck all of this abstract nonsense, i wanna be a farmer
>>101512117Try networking through LinkedIn, job fairs, and get an internship if you can. The easiest way to get a job is to know someone who can get you in.
>>101512637>up to you to believe meWell I don't. No one here does. Because you are lying. Sorry, all that shit you wrote goes right in the trash. Go ahead and post more shit if you want - right in the garbage.
>>101509801>Head developer interviewed himThis is reasonable.>Head of HR interviewed himYou're not applying for an HR job.The only way this makes sense is if they have only one HR employee. Fake title. >they're billing you for Rebekah's [sic] time as wellRebekah [sic] was not involved in hiring you.And they (?) value their (?) time twice as much as everyone else's. They (?) probably do nothing all day.As an aside, if my parents fucked my name up I'd pay the government a small fee to correct it.)There is no way this place can afford to take you to court.Use that letter as kindling the next time you're making a fire. It was free paper.
>>101512808thank you sir assuring 4channel.org of my falsehood. everything i wrote down to it's language is a lie. ooga booga
>>101512374That's not a good answer. You pick 5 jobs you'd be willing to do and they throw darts. And if too many people want those 5 jobs you get something random you didn't ask for.

>>101508615That sounds like a bank job, why is it on /g/?
How much involvement you have in your neighborhood activities at home, /twg/? I've been living in my mom's new house and we're 5 months into this neighborhood, and she appointed me to be a part of the event planning committee. I already have so much in my plate, I just finished with my bachelor thesis for example and I really have to re-learn stuff, grind leetcode, and get a job before January. But no, she wants herself to be known as a big shot. The neighborhood head is some whale who doesn't mind to dump money and making us do all his bidding, and the other members of the committe are all married bunch, while the young adults around 18-25 are just me and my younger siblings. The rest of the populace are just fucking toddlers.

I have a sql interview coming up. I haven’t done proper sql in several years ( I’ve been using excel, power bi, tableau, looker, etc, which have sql-ish parts). Is there an online sample db and ide that I can use to practice with so I don’t need to do all the bullshit of setting up a new sql instance on my machine? I’ve used the w3schools demos and they’re helpful but I want to do more advanced and less hand-holding stuff like window functions and several layers of CTE etc
>>101513659you could have googled that, you lazy fucking faggot. better yer, you could run sudo apt install mariadb and googled "mariadb instructions"jfc, how lazy can someone be...
How do I unironically get mental help? I want to really stabilize myself but the stigma/cost/time it'll take to find the right resources seems difficult. I also feel a little cringy telling someone my actual thoughts that aren't my deepest friends.
>>101513659azure sql serverless has free credits + dbeaver
>>101513554If you're single and don't live with your parents then either you're abused or retarded.Paying $2k/month to colocate an armchair and microwave is insane.
>>101513680Go to a good church, volunteer to do hard things for poor people, and talk to your parents more, go outside and hike and camp.That's all you need to do. Therapy will just make you more upset.
>>101513706>talk to your parents morei think that's one of my major problem. i feel way too reliant on them. they're not exactly healthy people too, the more I stay with them the more I feel like I end up as the worst version of myself.>Go to a good churchdon't believe in religion>volunteer don't really care about the homeless>go outside and hike and campthis makes me feel even more isolated and lonely.
>>101512395God bless America. You could send a picture of your ass and they couldn't lay a finger on you
>>101513640Nope! Not at all lmao I'm in charge to watch and observe 16 different activities in two days.Yes Man mentality is so prevalent in this third world hellscape. Look, I'm able to partake and attend whatever social gatherings I want to, but getting involved directly behind the scene? Please no. I already have zero free time for myself all these years living with either my mom / dad and not being able to move out.
>>101513706this is normalfaggot advice from a normalfaggot that has not once ever in their life experienced mental distress
>>101513748talk to the people in the committee or something and offer paid IT services to them? maybe install cameras in the neighborhood or some shit
I just feel so unhinged some days, I don't think I'm in danger to anyone but I feel so paranoid of everyone, i just want to destroy something. this fucking world is so messed up and yet nobody does anything to fix it.
>>101513680Watch Perfect Days and read Your Money or Your LifeTo actually talk properly to a counselor, psychologist, or psychiatrist, you need to write down first 4 different set things 1. What you don't like about your life right now.2. Things you hate doing3. Things you are capable of doing daily4. Things you want to doList at least 5 stuff on each of these categories, then hand it to them while discussing it.The world has become so hypercompetitive and hypersocialized, that lot of us feel ashamed to only have 10 friends instead of being known by 1000 people. We call ourselves losers when we're struggling just to make 20k a year while others seem to be raking 300k. You need to focus on making yourself fulfilled, not fulfilling other people's expectations if you don't want to.>>101513736Yeah you def need to start being independent from your parent for starters. Instead of relying on them, maybe start with chatgpt or your shrink. They can list you plans and schedule you can follow for the next 6 months or more.>>101513779No no it's not about observing like setting up cameras. We're celebrating our independence day in 3 weeks and the community wants to have little games for the kids and adults, stuff like sack race and stuff for TWO WHOLE DAYS. Then on the next week, the neighborhood head wants to hold on a speech on one evening, and in the next morning, he wants the neighborhood to go on a 5km "fun walk". Craziest thing is the adults are able to throw money to buy all the tools needed and gifts, but they dump the rest of the actual work to me.
>>101513888I'm kinda accepting on how competitive the world is now but I'm more fucking pissed off at the media and how it controls it's people to go against each other. Everyone seems so one against each other for reasons that nobody fucking gives a shit about. Always your side vs my side. yet nobody does anything about it. other than that im tired of my days being the exact same over and over and over and over and over and over again and yet I'm too scared to socialize with anyone else because everyone I used to know was a backstabbing son of a bitch whore who'd always shit talk me. it's also a lot more of this >>101513888at one point i want to change but on the other...if i end up just being another normal norman then nothing will change. nothing will change now but i still want that drive that energy.
>>101513691>abusedIf you can get laid without a place of your own, then you’re blessed. Only reason I’d get my own place is because it would be fucking impossible for me to bring a girl over to my house without disrespecting my mom beyond a point of no return.
UKbros. Let's say I have a 3 month notice period and I handed my notice in 2 months ago but I haven't got a new job yet. How do I pretend to be an immigrant so that the government will pay for my mortgage?
>>101508328all of these are gonners. You can fuck them, it will not even be that hard, but block their numbers after that.
>>101509801well you see, I lied on my resume, so they should expect me to pay the charge.... some day... lol. I literally own like 35k pounds to the british government and have paid the large sum of 0. If anyone charges me for anything, I am not a boomer and will decide to pay or not on the spot.
>>101514094and btw this is why i did not pay the 35k mentioned in >>101514144 : some smuck in the UK has to pretend to be an emigrant to have money to life. I would take another 35k if i could and hell.... just give me the of uk money. the faster i crash the UK's economy ( with no survivors ) the better.
how much raise should i ask after 1yr? is $6k/yr more too much
>>101509801>How do you respond?You lie about the requirements, I lie in the resume. Simple as.
>>101514094> 3 month notice period Is your employer your jailer, jeez that's long. >UK Ah, third world country problems.
i love money so much bros.
>>101514345Please send me $50k so I can help my family out and get myself out of debt and then use the rest of the money to wrap up my degree and move out of my house.
>>101513948There's no guarantee your life will be fulfilling or there are thousands flocking to your deathbed if you become a normienigger. Just like what you have listed, normieniggers backstab, lie, cheat, and steal all the time too to get by. If you can avoid all that and still being self sufficient, you have lived a decent life.
>>101514243I'd ask for inflation + 5%
>>101512372ideally you'd apply before being unemployed for a year since it's a six month minimum hiring process
>>101513659Datalemur.com is great for practicing SQL.
>>101513990You can just rent a hotel room with the money your saving. There is also a private members club I know that has discounted rooms.I'd have to be getting laid significantly more to hit parity with renting...
>>101509801File a police report for false billing fraud and extortion by libel, and proceed to block them on all points of contact.
Should I just lie on my resume? I mean a lot of people do it anyway too, right?
>>101512317You don't unless you already have a lot of it experience
>>101515215How much is a lot
>>101515214lie to the extent that you can make someone believe it, especially when asked questions about it in the interview. practice your answers to potential questions enough that you can convince yourself that your answers are genuinely the truth.everyone lies on their resume to some extent. the people here who say not to lie on your resume either dont have jobs, or they are actively trying to sabotage your efforts.

>>101512808Everything that gets posted on this site is trash.You realize 4chan is the garbage dump of the internet right? People come here when they feel the urge to say something fucking stupid. If they want to have a real or informative discussion about something, they go somewhere else.

>>101515771Become an escort.
This shit is so ass
>>101516100Then make your own?In general you only contribute to something if it is relevant.Write something that interests you and share it.If it's an assignment then make a second account and contribute with your normal account.
>>101516100Just find some repos that still use>master/slave>blacklist/whitelistterminology and change it.That's a couple of hundred commits easy and you can call yourself a "contributor". Nobody is going to check what you contributed anyway.

I've stopped caring about being arbitrarily "competent" anymore or a good programmer or anything, I just care about having a comfy job that makes me good moneyI plan on brushing up on AWS and aiming for data engineer roles. Is that a good choice?
For fully remote jobs in the US that require the applicant to be inside the US or a citizen/residentCan I get around that requirement by having a US LLC? or is it not worth the hassle/cost?

>>101517444There aren't any.
>>101517619>writeit's all automated
>>101517444>What are some comfy jobs that make money? In EUdepends on your spending and personality. for me, any job with minimal responsibility is comfy by default. as for the money, if you waste 10k a month, figuratively, almost no job ever will give you a peaceful life. Learn to spend a minimum and you'll be happy.
>>101517623>>101517661I meant in tech specifically. I'm thinking some backend enterprise java shit in a medium-sized company is as cushy as it gets

>>101517809>it's dead end.Isn't it a good career plan to work on niche shit though?
>>101517809So is it really comfy if it's hopeless?

What's up with NeetCode by the way? Is he still unemployed and pretending to make millions from his courses for bootcampers?
>>101508222So at what point do they actually do any, you know, work?
>>101518103work?
>>101518103ofc. they push the updates with files filled with zeros to justify being paid by a man.
Why not just secretly outsource your duties to some thirdie and take credit for their work?

>>101518284this is the artificial shit on the internet, that nobody gives a shit about. So, one is a professional dancer, that desperately has to promote some kind of a project, most likely linked to some msm tv channel or some such completely irrelevant bullshit in 2024. And how does one do that? Well, the 63 year old Larry Peters has to justify being overpaid while doing fuck all in the marketing, so he comes up with the very "new" and "fresh" idea of>let's appeal to the common working man we take advantage ofeventually an employee that wasn't born in the fucking 15th century, and just a modern day npc, suggests, that they should put that shit on the social media, esp the most popular platforms. maybe then a lot of people will see it.This fucking bullshit makes me wanna puke. This blatant ad that normies/npcs/retards think of as a discovery of some prodigy is the oldest fucking trick in the book. Except, they left their containment forms of media and are trying to posion MY fucking internetz with that primitive crap. Fuck all of them, the only way forward is the complete fucking segregation, as usual. And fragmentation, so to speak. of the internet.

But this horror stories are scaring me.
>>101518404sorry i meant cui bono lol
>>101518404I am the asshole. And I am enjoying my life. I hate fucking homo sapiens. Because the majority of them are clinically retarded. Not being an edgy teen here, but referencing the fact, that those imbeciles, more like because of, and for, in particular, safety of those imbeciles, everybody has rushed on a mission to make the internet completely sterile. Then push some irrelevant, not entertaining bullshit like that. My point is that it is a completely unremarkable ad, that pollutes. Other than that, I don't give a shit about it at all.The only people finding it entertaining are the drooling fucking imbeciles clapping their hands in the vid you have posted. What sane individual would clap to that? Serious question. If your co-worker starts dancing on his cigarette break, do you a) cringe, b) not care, ignore, and go away, or c) start clapping your hands like a brainless fucking husk of a being you are?
>>101518404and don't even start me on clapping in-depth btw. Because the stupidity of the clapping unironically infuriates me. Very few things are worth a clap. Except, the ironic slow clap. That is acceptable, when funny. But clapping for a toddler taking a shit? Clapping for a pilot doing his job? Clapping for a fucking phonogram? and so forth.. Give me a fucking break. Retarded fucking normies get off my internet, reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

>>101510814Some ATS can be configured to automatically email everyone who was on tract for a particular position when it is filled or closed out.

>>101519994are you retarded? 1/5 is 20%, which means that 5/5 are 100%. and 1/9 is 11.1%. I know you probably think of it as 0.2 and 0.111, but that is not practical. If you want a person to ever start to be good at mathemathics, they have to understand the practical, real world application of the numbers. It is logic, so explain it to them on an example, just like you explain one apple, two apples, divide an apple by half, etc to a child in kindergarten. A lot of people have a really hard time with concepts, abstracts, hypotheticals, etc.TL;DR: It's EXACTLY the same thing, you mongoloid. Start teaching people with something they can at least try to relate to.
>been unemployed for 2 years>able to get by because of savings>got serious about applying for 6 months now>only 2 interviews>first one the recruiter ghosted my ass>second one was from a toxic startup that only wanted fresh grads>finally get a lucky break and had a FAGMAN recruiter reach out last week>they're ignoring me nowI'll message one last time tomorrow and if I get ignored then I'll consider that lead dead. I really hate getting false hope.
What even counts as a start-up? My old company was like 10 years old with like 20 people but recently got a lot of investment and started hiring a bunch of people with the goal of eventually getting acquired, but that goal only came about recently. In my mind a start-up is something started in the past couple of years for the sole purpose of flipping it.
>>101520363>having the exact formula to calculate the correct value is "not practical", because uhm I'm too much of a brainlet to figure it out lol
The market will flip eventually, but my resentment for HR and recruiters won't after all of this.Once we go back to a buyers market, I will be the bane of every recruiter. I will be applying to jobs when I don't need one, and I will be going through the process, just to ghost them when I'm deep in. I WILL be asking for extra calls to clarify bullshit questions. I WILL be acting very interested. I WILL waste HR resources as much as I possibly can.
>>101519193lol, i literally got a near-perfect score on the gmat with studying 4 weeks. it's piss easy, apart from the obscure vocab questions (why do they even ask that dumb shit)
>>101520502wrong. It is a multiple choice test, that requires speed. I don't need to calculate the exact value, esp. all the decimal shit to take a correct guess. All I need to do is spend 5 to 10 seconds imagining a real world pool as 100% or 0% filled. and 20% per hour and 11.1% per hour. It is so much easier to get an approximation by using this numbers in a blink of an eye. Rather than fucking writing a formula out and deal with decimal bullshit, etc.You have a more precise engineering approach to some bullshit that just has to be partly calculated/guessed even, which just wastes your time. Your goal here is to choose a correct answer out of a list of answers. Nothing more. You min max getting to the desired outcome the fastest. Not by being overly clever and wasting time on decimal places at all.

I just sent an email to HR to tell them to hurry up. You should hear something soon"A few months ago my Uncle gave me a piece of job hunting advice: "Remember that even though this is the most important thing in the world to you, it's not the most important thing in the world to them. Make sure you stay on top of things and follow up"It seems this turned out to be true.So anons who are looking for a job, if you have a good interview and don't hear anything for a while, make sure you follow up. It appears that this actually does have an impact
>>101520602>>101520639this here is the highlight of all of the problems with the education. which leads to overengineering practices, overworking, stupid positions, wasted working hours and women in academy and workforce in general.

Have you never been taught the KISS principles or similar while getting your bullshit useless degree?

>>101520986Bro that's not a lofted plane come on dude
>>101520937doing 1/(1/9+1/5) is slower than doing 45/13besides, the point is that I didn't know the formula, and rather than deriving it (which I could do as well) I just thought one pipe is 9 litres/hour and the other is 5 litres/hour so the combined flow is 13 litres/hour for a 45 litre tank
>>101521006Yes.
>>101521034???????are you a retarded jeet?
>>101521059You already found 45 as the common denominator though. A normal arbitrary number would be 10 or 50 or 100 and 45 liters is the size of a small fish tank not a pool. A pool would be like 60,000 liters. We both know you found the common denominator and are lying about pulling 45 out of your ass after you already took the long way around the barn.

>>101521059>>101521114I still maintain that you don't need to precisely calculate or know the volume or shit at all. Just use the %. 100% / 20% + 11(.1)% = time.
>>101521136>>101521137what undergrad? what highschool math? Are amerimutts really? This shit is like 5th grade when you learn proportions, which is yeah, being a pretentious dumb faggot like all of your here are, can be called: solving a simple equasion with 1 unknown.
>>101521124Which you did. When you can just use 1.
>retards keeps bragging about how smart they were in schooldon't feed them
>>101521138Or you can just use 1 and not bother with finding the common denominator.

>>101521186but I didn't find the common denominator, because it doesn't matter at all. I didn't bother with precise decimal places either. Rephrase the needlessly wasteful (time) equasion with this: 1 full pool = 100%. How long does it approximately take for 2 pumps combined, first 20% an hour and second 11% to fill it? Approximation is sufficient in primitive multiple choice tests.

>>101521254Americans call those condos. Only Europeans call them apartments even when they’re owning.
>>101521255I'm nta. This is how I read it: full pool = 100%. 5 hours = 100/5 = 20%. 9 hours = 100/9 = ~11(.1). 20 + 11 = 31. 31 = one hour. 31 + 31 = 62 = 2 hours. 62 + 31 = 93 = 3 hours. more than 3, much than four. do we have an answer like that?

>>101521571People like you should be put down. Posts like this are why I reject any candidate that gives even a whiff of incel.
>>101521923nowhere
>>101521935It's giving incellllll :crying_emoji: :crying_emoji:
If the salary range on the job description is $86k-$106k and I meet the experience requirements and have a masters degree, should I push for $100k+? I have a strong opportunity here, basically in the bag at this point for nepotism reasons.
>>101521923Three times a year I take a full week off just to sit at home and play video games, no idea what normalfags do with their vacation time.
>>101521972here's the application to hired pipeline:>fire off a resume and some "are you a white guy (icky)" questions into a web portal>Becky who has a B.A. in Literature from a no-name state school in Florida arbitrarily decides whether you move forward or not by parsing a single piece of paper covered in words and acronyms she's never seen before for 30 seconds>Becky then takes a 4 hour lunch with the girlies to sip mimosas>run over a kindergartener in her lifted Yukon that makes her feel "safe" on her way back from bruch to """work""" from home>if you're """lucky""" enough to pass the Becky gauntlet it's onto the 5-round humiliation ritual led by Rajesh or Chang who will just hire one of their kinsfolk after wasting your time but you have to pretend that you don't know that and do all the whiteboarding shit anyways>several months later: templated rejection letter>repeat ad infinitumAh what a great career I've chosen. If you don't like it you're probably just an inkwell, sweatie.
>>101521681Could you manlets go back where you came from
>>101521983Why would you ever take less than 100k with a masters degree>>101521994Go on trips with family
>>101521935>>101521972if a roastie is at the job not working she better be playing nintendo switch or some other geemu instead of seething and coping on roastie media.

>>101522124gross sexist they just need therapy.
all networks still down. theyre pretending its not crowd strike related when it obviously is. oh well charging 8 hours to my main project anyways.
>>101522374Therapy is fucking retarded.
>>101521520learn russian or mandarin
>>101509826Absolutely.People actually filling the roles, not HR bots, understand HR is fucked. If.you get past the HR gatekeepers side projects are valuable. They'll set you apart from the 90% that graduate and then do fuckall
>>101512637Actual competence will get you shunned in a dei environment no matter who you are
>>101515295This is some weird zoomer shit. I've never lied on a resume. Although - if you can really do the work, SAY SO
Im too low IQ to be a dev. I literally cant even complete my training.
whats it like working in defense?
>>101509826are the sidprojects dumb shit or cool shitall that matters is if its cool shit
>>101518103Two types of office jobs. You either do nothing until you're all shitcanned without warning, or you actually do things and make heaps of money.... and maybe this is recognized, and maybe not.Someone the other day said "you're larping, a company won't give you hundreds of thousands in stock just because". It's not just because - my project grosses like 250-300 mil a year. Some of us get paid to make this keep happening.Some 25 year old tiktok dancing office bint, not so much
>>101522834you have to bend over and let glowies fist-fuck your entire life in order to get a clearance. literally a humiliation ritual where they ask you for piss, shit, hair, blood, and then interview anyone you ever had contact with, including your family, ex-girlfriends, neighbors, former employers, etc.then you get paid a pretty meh wage to warm a chair because the entire gimmick with defense contracting is companies say "Hey, look at how well staffed and talented we are, give US the contract!" and then only the top 0.001% of the talent actually gets to do any interesting workbut it's more or less permanent job security and there's no risk of AI or Jeets displacing you, so there's pros and cons.a lot of my former colleagues and peers who weren't particularly bright or ambitious ended up at big box defense places like Lockheed and Northrup and seem to be relatively happy with their just-barely-middle-class prestiegeless careerstl;dr if you just wanna chill forever then it's a great path, but don't expect FIRE money or to ever drive anything cooler than a 3 model year old accord
>>101522896is the clearance/interview process actually that bad wtf
>>101521500This is why you scout it out in advance. Drove through Denver area for the first time in years this summer... holy shit never again
>>101522935depends how deep you want to go
>>101522935yes it is that bad. for the easiest, secret, they do everything i described. for anything higher, they do insane shit like polygraph you and subpoena your ISP to see what kinda shit you browse in your free time. it's insanity.
>>101522957any stories on ts full scope with poly?
>>101522834same as any other government desk job. they hire like 100 people and 5 people do all the work.
>>101522896What's the pay. I fucking hate work. If I could make at least 70k doing the minimal amount of work I think I would be happy.
>>101522969>subpoena your ISPthat eliminates everyone here
>>101522980don't do that one that clearance isn't worth it. just get up to ts/sci at the highest.
>>10152299170k for an entry level engineer sounds about right. the other shit part about defense cucktracting is that salary and promotions are based SOLELY on years of experience and are not correlated to merit whatsoever. so even if you're a bananas 10x engineer with 150+ IQ you'll be stuck working for peanuts for a decade.additionally the office culture is a nightmare, it's just tons of slack and collared shirt wearing squares, "family man" types whose only hobby is mowing their lawn on saturday morning. so unless you're a drone you'll likely want to rope after about a year of dealing with the most soulless banal retards on earth.if something seems free, you're the product.
>>101508615step it up brother!
>>101522996buddy of mine got denied halfway through his TS/SCI process because he once visited a dispensary website in... Colorado. he was already 6 months into this job doing busy work waiting for his clearance to get done with and now he's been unemployed for 8 months. for browsing a dispensary's website in a place where cannabis has been state-wide recreationally legal for 20 years. he didn't even purchase anything.
new bread?
>>101523190They're gonna see all my gacha shit and tell me to fuck off. I already know it.
>>101523190pretty sure ts/sci isn't that strict. for the full scope poly i believe it though.
>>101523190Did he visit it at work or something?
>>101523190let me guess, dea or some sort of law enforcement job? from what I've read, glowies wouldn't give a shit if they have reason to believe you won't do drugs but law enforcement wants you to be perfect on all fronts
>>101523317>>101523241>>101523233>>101523227such a bizarre second order polynomial reason to deny a clearance. he potentially maybe had the thought to think about perchance visually perceiving marijuana. what the fuck?
so Im guessing the fact that I am on this site disqualifies me from getting a job in defense
>>101523190I remember the place I was working at explicitly stating that despite decriminalization at local levels federal restrictions still applied. They dropped that req when the pandemic happened since they had too much of a backlog and a shortage of people. I find that case suspect because you disclose if you've ever used illegal drugs and it is not necessary a full stop for getting cleared. Was that the actual reason they gave?
>>101521901ben awad, is that you?
>>101508222Why do women do this instead of working?
>>101523826I want to do this instead of working

I wish I had a coworker invited me out. in fact I have this really hot coworker...I had coworkers who were interested in me but I refused to do anything about it because autism.sadly, I work from home these days and my house is so shit that I'd be ashamed of bringing anyone here.
