i wish i wasn't alcoholic but living in such a small apartment with someone else triggers my autism

Having a job is really weird. Everything is so expensive. Even consumption is extremely expensive. Simply having enough money for the necessities of life (like food, water, and basic shelter). It costs an extremely large amount of money to simply survive, which means you never really feel secure. You always feel in a state of insecurity. The entire point of society was to eliminate that state of insecurity. So what is even the point to all of this anymore. I genuinely do not understand what the point of society is anymore.

>>101748258

>>101748292
Man I wish I had spent the 2010s being productive.
I graduated high school in 2007 and wasted my entire 20s being an alcoholic coomer. It's so weird looking back at it, it's like I was in a coma for 15 years and have nothing to show for it. All those days waking up and checking the internet. Felt so important and entertaining, but ultimately amounted to nothing. Most of it is gone, the people, the videos, the words, just electronic ephemera.

Same it is surprising I am where I would've been even if I gave a shit regardless. I put alot of effort into starting and then stagnated for along time before getting serious again. It happens to alot of people all the time that once they hit mid 20's they get scared as shit that they are behind and in reality they may just be on time if they play catchup before 30 like I did and soon I will leapfrog to greater things. But maybe I could've gotten there faster.

I started college at 22. Looking back 22 seems very young to me, but at the time I realized everyone else was 18 and I felt old as fuck. I then went through my entire 20s feeling old and behind. I realized I spent my youth feeling old. I robbed myself lol.

>>101748555
Started it at 20 finished my associates, took a break like a retard and started back up again at 27 then finished at 30 with 2 associates, 2 bachelors and a masters degree(military paid). Reality I should've gotten out sooner and started out my civilian life but instead I was drinking a bunch and playing games instead of what I am doing now with finishing my degrees, certifications and soon homelabs to really push me towards my goal of network engineering. I do not want to be a chump anymore

Yeah I also dropped out half way through 10th grade and now I am overcompensating hard with education I even have a couple hundred books I want to chew through, fiction, history, politics, philosophy, mysticism, military and the likes.

Fuck K-12 it was wayyyy worse and to fucking slow compared to college. Besides certifications give you more actual educational basis for the topics that matter at work then a degree.

>>101748625
Those business majors wanted to do the easiest degree possible and they will get the shittiest job ever. However they do infact get paid pretty good money for there shit job.

Be sure to get the TCP/IP guide and the odom TCP/IP. You can pick it up for CCNA but you absolutely need it for CCNP. Other then the Comptia Trifecta being a good basis for education the TCP/IP is the next step in really understanding networking. It can help out alot for working on networking.

I would also recommend just downloading PDF's for A+, Net+ and Sec+.

Hello, I am new to this board. I am an RF engineer who works with cellular infrastructure, I'm very new to it and I was wondering if there are any telecommunication professionals here.

I am finding it very hard to learn this stuff, I want to learn more about my own field, but also radar and aviation communication systems. Does anyone have advice for me about how I would go about doing this? Do I need to go get a masters degree or something?

The company I work for is not very keen on training. I feel like it will be years before I have even a basic understanding of the systems that I work with.

Pick something you're interested in and study it
>Do I need to go get a masters degree
Yes, but not for the "studying", only for the checkmark on your CV

>>101751427
Depends on your company. Cellular is it's own subset of RF and you could spend a lifetime learning it all.

Building things with a SDR has been one of the best professional development tools I have had in my career. It gives you access to the entire wireless spectrum(radio dependent), so you can explore the things you're interested in.

Also consider getting your ham license, excellent way to learn and also network if you avoid the crazy boomer types.

Any time I make a suggestion during a meeting it someone immediately shoots it down (often by one person in particular but by other people as well) and it feels intentional, but the only non-schizo alternative is that every single one of my suggestions is bad. Either way it makes me want to stop contributing during meetings entirely.

>>101750086
Basically you need to never get in this position ever again.
And if you are forced to, you tell everyone that you are overbooked so the quality will drop and things will be missed.

You need to make Google sheets for the tasks with priorities and share them with relevant parties. Target dates. Task owner. Ticket number. Etc. Tell people to add anything you missed in an email. If they don't add it, remind them that anyone can edit and confirm they got your email.

Back this sheet (s) up periodically in a private area.

Then everything is on a few lists sortable by project , priority, and due date. Etc. make it a table.

The projects are either green, amber, or red and trending good or bad.

If anything is not green or trending well ask for help and if you don't get it they can suck dicks because you asked.

Reduce the number of meetings across all projects.

You list the tasks and responsibilities currently on your plate. Also the general scope of work you do.
Outside scope? Say you need lots of time to spin up so you need to drop other tasks. Also ask if your scope is expanding. Also point out that other people usually handle this stuff.

In scope? Tell them it's cool but some other things need to be put on the back burner. Make him pick those things.

They usually want workhorse pushovers who never chin up to their level and expect them to be a manager.

Of course, maybe just find a new job.

Just switch to listening mode and bring a legal pad and document everything in the meeting. That was no one can say you're no engaged.
If anyone tries to get you to suggest something be positive and agreeable and tell them you'll work on it but you have nothing this moment.
Send the suggestion in an email later if you really feel like continuing to try to break in to the group. Keep it very short. Keep track of any suggestions you send that get implemented either with or without you. Personal spreadsheet.

0 new engineers hired, stuck with jeets who do shit and managers pour all the hard stuff on me. Burnt out as fuck, managers have no clue about anything regarding organization in the slightest. Fuck this shithole world and fuck development, this industry is becoming the shittiest "career" in the world quickly (like 1000 reasons for this). If I died tomorrow I wouldn't complain.

alright boys, it got to me. my company is doing a layoff and even though I'm not affected I'm looking to get the fuck out. i won't sink with this ship. how's the market looking? i'm euro btw (get me out of here)

>>101752686
those jobs are gate kept pretty hard like all fake jobs so you wont get in without a strong reference.

My manager keeps asking me to give estimates about my coworker's task behind his back. I give him honest estimations with a little bit of padding say maybe 12-16 hours and my manager always says shit like "Oh darn. I was hoping it would take 2 hours". Absolutely mind boggling

>Couldn't get a single job, including defense
I got in with a defense contractor with no prior work experience (not even a McJob) and nothing on my resume but my CS degree from a mediocre school and three extremely unimpressive school projects. Were you submitting a blank sheet of paper as your resume or what?

>>101752845
Yeah. I mean, that's where the money is: data and search. Or you may know them by their stage name: ads. ClickHouse was originally designed purely for ads-specific analytics, and you can't have good ads without good search.

>>101747633
unironically this is your chance, seize it

>>101752957
time estimates are usually completely wrong i just say a week or three. if its a non trivial task a month or three. your manager is going to embarrass himself anyways regardless of what you say.

how do people know what they are doing?
got a+, net+ and sec+ and now i don't know what job to apply for
and i don't want to apply for a $15-20 per hour job (help desk) and ofc i only have 1 year experience and no job experience

people are just applying and moving up while im stressing
like how does someone just apply to any random job without anxiety, maybe i have paranoia

i found a job (help desk) that i can do and i have a 80% chance they will hire me but it looks too perfect, is it a scam? i don't know

theyre just talking they do that a lot so they can look like theyre helping.

I have been working at some company as an "assistant software engineer" for nearly two years. In those two years I've started showing more and more problems keeping up with my responsibilities due to my disability and covid ramping up the intensity of the role and management knows this. A few months ago they contacted me saying they are "Seriously considering" terminating me and essentially told me "We want to give you time to find somewhere better suited for your skills, but you can't stay here"

Why are they doing this? They told me that as a business I am "a detriment" and they did absolutely say that I have no future in this company and that it simply isn't going to work, but I'm still here working as I always am. They've been asking me here and there to far more often recently how the job search has been going but I've pretty much been pre-fired. Is this some technique to avoid severance or EI or to justify a firing instead of a lay off by "giving me ample time to financially recover"? or is this truly out of some goodness of their hearts?

What can I do? I've of course been looking but you know how jobs are here.

I just had another meeting reminding me that my future here is very much up in the air but they are also insisting that they "don't want to fire me because of being disabled" but that I still cannot work here. They want to move me to a different role in the company if possible and also want doctor information on how they can accommodate me which is confusing to hear when they also say I wont be with them soon enough anyways.

This is really stressing me out how much they're pecking at me about this. I can't find new work internally or otherwise and knowing that my ship is sinking feels so much worse in advance.

>>101753430
i would meet with you to help you chuddy stay strong.

Yup we hire every retard that comes off the street in defense as long as you have the paper. You usually just have to start at a domestic outsourcing company and move over to the primary contractor after a year if you aren't shit.

>>101754282
Sounds like they wanted to can you a long time ago but it's not legally obvious what they can do because of your disability. I don't know if anyone in this thread is qualified to tell you what your options are, but I think I'm at least qualified to say that the company only cares about themselves.

>>101754282
I know nothing about this but I may advise going to an employment lawyer. I personally would not want to give a company too much of my private information that they don't need beyond my SSN and state issued license.

It's pretty obvious they want to fire you but they're trying their hardest to find a way to push you out legally with the least amount of cost.

I’m a director and hiring manager…this probably isn’t what you want to hear, but anybody who misses an interview like this, I always ding, regardless of the excuse.

When you interview someone, you have very little information to go off of, and something like this is a huge red flag. If you fuck up the first impression, I can’t trust you to be responsible in the actual role.

To be harsh: most employers expect prospect employees to be able to figure out things like time zones. If you don’t have attention to detail here, why would I believe you would have it during the actual job?

>>101752424
The only thing you should keep in mind is that you did your part by voicing your opinion.

current internship got extended so that my supervisor could get accounting to draw up a budget for my actual employment offer. Is it worth asking for compensation for my extended time as an intern when I could've had a proper job with the company making twice as much as I currently do? doesn't feel proper but I've been instructed by other people more immersed in corporate life than me that this is a fair and normal ask (which I could see), but I also don't want to jeopardize job security for an extra couple thousand bucks

guys I missed my interview for today, should I kill myself? She even texted me saying she was waiting for me, but I didn't see till 3 hours later.

>>101754605
If had another offer in hand or know I can get a job VERY EASILY if it goes south then I would try.

Considering this isn't the right climate to actually stand your ground and respect your self and your worth it makes it very difficult.

>>101754630
no but you should probably start looking into unemployment

>>101754642

You're right that you're being robbed, but it's the company in general that's doing it. The people in your immediate vicinity like your supervisor probably mean you no harm. How long is the extension? If it's like two weeks, eh. If they want you to work for half pay for months, I'd ask for back-compensation.

Ehhh. It doesn't sound great but you can also start more gently. Like ask for an ETA, and then if they say a week maybe you let it slide, but if they say a month or they have no idea you express your concern and ask if something like back-compensation is possible.
I guess my overall advice for things would be to start gently so you don't piss anyone off, and if you ever get backlash despite starting gentle then they were always going to fuck you

Who told you that, commie?

Man I've been feeling like a straight zombie at work lately and I don't know how to fix myself. my motivation has hit an absolute 0. I'm in meetings and I'm doing work but anything or any energy drive I can muster is just wiped out and it takes me so long to get back into things. Like I think before I could have 5-6 hours of production time but now I'm hitting like 2 hours a day where I can be like "okay my mind's awake".

Any tips on how to fix it? My RTO isn't until november (Cousin's wedding, taking the whole week for bachelor party). I have some stuff I can do and it's not even really procrasination but it's a point where I'm waiting for people to do stuff and I don't want to poke the frog and suddenly be like "OH SHIT ENCHALIDAS ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE AND NOW IM RESPONSBILE FOR 20 things"

yes yes i work out everyday, it's probably one of the reasons im feeling this bummy all the time.

I used to work at AWS and the whole "Indians only hire Indians" thing is exemplified best there. When I started we had 1 or 2 Indian PMs, when I left literally the entire PM team was Indian, and it had also expanded by a significant amount (like 5x or more). At one point I think I was reporting to like 3 different Indian PMs and their manager, another Indian (and his manager and skip were Indians too). Amazon PM is Indians all the way down. They were the worst people I've ever worked with and amazingly out of touch with both customers AND developers.
Anyways I'm not surprised if most of the new hires are Indian too. It won't be long before they're run over.

One of my favorite memories at AWS was during one of the Wednesday ops meetings, when we were going over the details of an outage some weeks ago. 3 separate AZs in 3 different regions had all started failing one after the other and no one understood why because there hadn't been deployments. After hundreds of man-hours spent debugging, the root cause was found to be an engineer who directly sshed into the hosts (using emergency overrides to bypass company policies to prevent exactly this) and started deleting files off the disks because disk usage was full.
The team was summoned to the meeting, in front of the whole company, to explain their actions, and when they turned their cameras on, guess what? 3 swarthy Indians and an Indian manager who spoke unintelligible English.

Thinking about taking one of those jobs that give your full stack CORE java sar training for like 2 months then they lock you into a bad paying job for 2 years and if you leave you pay them money. I have no experience and haven't got a single interview after applying for months.

This is life's comedy: months of applications with no responses. The only one that suddenly answered and showed interest is a loud lefty extremist company that makes it a habit to publish interviews with new hires, which means that your name will be forever associated with them. All their work involves some pozzed association. I've only applied in jest… Just fuck my luck.

>>101755830
What is your actual skillset? There's a variety of places you can earn more (big tech, as you said; relatively early at a successful startup if you're fine with just equity; HFT if you want a lot of cash) but they'll require you to be very good at coding in addition to architecture.

Just do it. I started applying for those after around 5 months with no responses, luckily shortly afterwards I found something but before that I was fully prepared to sell my soul for a couple years to get into the industry.

>>101756035
Big tech might take you. Especially one of those cloud orgs or GCP. Hard to say how much you'd have to brush up your coding without actually applying. If you're high-enough level then they value system design >> coding, but if you're at a no-name company right now then they'll probably slot you down into senior in which case you'll be expected to do good on both types of interviews

>can't a scrum master do this shit instead of, I don't know, jerking off all day?
scrum master manages the process, not the tickets. POs should be managing the tickets. A technical writer could be doing the customer facing documentation for you, but you're still going to have to babysit them for really technical stuff

Work itself in the modern sense is The Satan. It drains your soul rapidly regardless of what field you're working in, medicine, law, engineering, trades, whatever.

You're forced to participate in a game that you never signed up for. Instead of having festivals with people you love in your community and relaxing, you're forced to "commute" to an "office" and complete "tickets"

Worst of all, there is nearly zero correlation between merit and your salary potential, so you're not even really in control of your own career/earning potential, which automatically means that you should be doing the absolute bare minimum to not get fired and not exert even one joule more.

My advice to you is to start your own business or do some sort of passive income grift. Drop-shipping, a fake OnlyFans with AI generated content, whatever you can muster the will to do.

People who create "jobs" are demons. Don't let NEET faggots ITT tell you otherwise. Some people are prisoners of their own mind and actually get hard at the idea of being taken advantage of, and using their short time on this Earth to make some hook-nose shareholder another million.

t. 11 yoe being an engineer at a variety of levels (junior, mid, senior, now staff) working at both product development companies and research labs. they're all equally horrible, not because of any given trait of the job, but because being alive in anno domini 2024 necessitates "work"

i also did blue collar tradie shit as a teen under my dad for money, just as horrific, but at least you get to be outside and talk to normal human beings instead of autistic bug people

>get assigned jira ticket

>immediately want to shoot myself in the face

>>101757893

I thought it was turning into a tech hub with good jobs?

>>101757912
think again. anything that's not Seattle or SV is not a tech hub, it's a shitty mid-tier city with maybe one or two household tech names that barely hire anyone

>everyone wants to move here

That's the shit I have deal with living here. On top of that, most entertainment or things to do got destroyed and bought up by property developers. The only shit you can do around here is go to overpriced bars.

>but done
>manager still hasn't done paperwork
>expects new deadline to be november
for fuck's sake
good thing I'm getting out soon, good luck to the guy who has to finish this instead of me

I hate when my PMs ask me questions the business people need to answer. Yes, I have the answers to the questions. No, I am far under the pay grade to make the decision. Yet they have to @ as many people as possible because they have no clue who is supposed to do what. Just burn it all down.

>she told my bossman that she has an "urgent" need

>i kid you not: "Oh, idk, January of next year would be a good deadline"
>shuffle back to desk

>she wants weekly 1:1s to "check base" with the "status" of this bug
I'm so tired of non-engineering paper shufflers using me and my time as a proxy for appearing busy and engaged.

>>101757928
I'm looking to move to Seattle. I'll deal with the swingers after I set up a base camp. Maybe a tech company will pity me and haul my ass out of Texas.

Is it even possible to get a job anymore? Last time I even got a call back, it was from a company that makes printed diapers for fetishists, and the callback wasn't even for the IT position I applied for

LOL. I'm a techie in defense and both of my defense jobs hired me off indeed within 3 weeks of applying. My last job hop I applied for a job on a saturday, and they replied monday before lunch with the date of the interview for that wednesday. They started the interview with the HR lady going over all the bennies in detail.....

defense is DESPERATE for smart white men. Legally speaking they can't export the jobs or let smelly beaners work them (ITAR). ALL the techs and engies are retirement age and begging for replacements so they can finally quit

defense isn't really gatekept that much, unless you're a foreigner or a criminal. The bad parts about defense are that it's soulless, you might get stuck in a gay ass closed area with no personal devices, you are probably indirectly responsible for killing people, and there's a high chance that you'll be stuck with useless management

>>101751979
Most tech jobs require some form of coding. Strictly non-coding positions are something like PM, Customer Support and such.
DevOps and QA also require coding unless QA is manual testing only.

they're just shit testing you, happens in every workplace. if you can't befriend all of them in 3 months you will get fired.

Should I ask for a title change? TPM to SWE. The latter is what I am actually doing. The former is what management thought they needed when they hired me. It started when I was supposed to be TPM for a new project, I was told it couldn't start yet because no devs were available, and I just said fuck it, I'll do it. 6 months later I'm still technically the TPM for the project but I'm reporting the status of my own work lol.
