I have to report what I've done over the last couple months and I have literally no idea what to say.
I have to be in office today.I am Wednesday in office anon.I have been posting about this for a year. Every Wednesday is a nightmare for me. I really am not suitable for life.
>>102937397this reminded of mine
>wfh being removed>9/80 and 4/10 options being "reconsidered"all the zoomers/millennials who thought their boss's were "bros" and hr was "cool" and the ceo their "friend" are visually depressed at work now crazy isn't it
Any advice on moving from finance to tech? It was easier to get into but desu I do not find it very interesting at all. Is it too late if I'm closer to 30 than I am to 25?
>>102937536Yeah it's too late man you just don't have the explosive power or quick twitch brain fibers that a younger man does.
>>102937428Same but I'm in office 3 days a week. Dont really mind it though its pretty comfy. Only part that sucks is traffic and not getting to sleep until 5 mins before my shift starts. But i moved much closer now so the commute won't be half as bad.
>>102937542Such is life. If only I had maintained a regiment of lifting books with my head, maybe I'd still have been able to compete. It truly is a young man's world, we're just living in it. It's over...
>>102937522wfh is cancerif i cant break a devs balls at his table nothing gets donegod i should become an inspector and fine these frauds
>>102937544It is impossible for me to maintain a consistent sleep schedule so even 1 day in office is like being in hell. I am currently getting ready to leave on my 1 hour morning commute and my eyelids are already drooping.
If they demand me to come to office I will just not do it until they fire me.I have saved a small fortune (for eastern Europe) and I can just return being NEET for next 10 years.
>wake up at 8am>send "good morning team" on Slack>back to bed>get up at 10>have breakfast>a long shit>start at 12pm>procrastinate>comment on my tickets>2pm>lunch>feel lazy>shit it's 4pm>do a little bit of work>"good evening team">tfw 10x developer
>>102937776This is basically what I do but I only earn $80k a year so I feel entitled to not work.You guys who are pulling $250k full remote and still not working are truly the ones deserving of awe.
>>102937814I-I make 110k.
>>102937562>It is impossible for me to maintain a consistent sleep schedule so even 1 day in office is like being in hell. I am currently getting ready to leave on my 1 hour morning commute and my eyelids are already drooping.Im also feeling myself falling back asleep this last hour before work. But i do maintain a very consistent sleep schedule. Sleeping is all I do. If im not at work im asleep. After work I sleep until i have to go back. On weekends i sleep.
>your top job matches>..."we are looking for a VOLUNTEER">"up to 10 hours a week">"hybrid at our office in bumblefuck SC">explicitly stating they want a diversity hire>must be expert level in .NET, spring framework, react native, kotlin and COBOL
>>102937554A look into the mind of a -10X project manager
>Working in a startup >Employees are "really" a family, All friends and never had fights we all just chill and continously go out after work >they greatly depend on me and I manage almost all of them right now, While also doing the hard coding parts others couldn't manage to do >Get an offer elsewhere, 310% salary increase >Feel bad for leaving and (maybe arrogantly) feel like the company will die after I leave Damn It feels like shit. I like routine. I hate change.
>mfw Americans are barely threading water earning $70k+ a year>mfw I earn €45k/year before tax and I just came back from a 2 week vacation (taking another one in a few months)
>>102937973wtf is 10x
>>102938305whats even the overall financial goal on a europoor salary like that? saving to buy an rtx 4090 after 10 years?
>>102938661ameroids cannot comprehend yuropoorsyuropoors cannot comprehend ameroidsstay in your lane and worry about your bs
>>102938742you arent gonna tell a red blooded american like me to stay in my own lane
>>102938661What's the point of a "financial goal" when you only get time to enjoy the rewards when you retire and are too old to properly enjoy them anyway?
>>102938757You aren’t an American you’re some brown fagI can tell because you still think the “freedumb” crying eagle america fuck yea thing is hilarious and retarded brown subhumans always have a sense of humor that is 20 years out of date
>>102938757come to yurop then and taste whats its likenever will get mfers trying to compare two continents that are socially alien
>>102937814>make $80k AFTER bargaining for a raise>40% goes on taxes to subsidise invaders and layabouts>will never see my state mandated pension >everything is expensive nowI heckin love being european
>>102938305now this is cope>>102938661they have no goals, they just exist until they are fired and then whine to the government
>>102938856You also described being an American basically Maybe I’m paying 35% instead of 40% Big whoop
>>102938903salaries above 100k exist in jewsa in exponentially greater numbers than in yuropooria>inb4 muh HCOL copeall good yuropoor jobs are in equivalent HCOL cities here too
>>102938903Sure but at least you get guns meanwhile I have to turn my butter knives into the nearest Diversity and Inclusion officer
good morning sirs
>>102938939You get to own guns but aren’t allowed to use them for what they were intended forIn that sense owning guns just reminds you how cucked and fucked you are
>>102938802>true white americans only have a sense of humor approved by this mentally ill third world anon
I make 90k, I'm going to ask for 120k for 2025.
>Are you using a laptop, or a desktop?>yesWhy are blacks like this
I make very l i t t l e m o n e y
>>102938990>ok we can pay that but you will have to work 5 days a week from the office
>>102939105I’d go back 5 days a week for 120k desu
>>102939105I'd do it. I already work 3 days in the office and my boss is in the other 2 and asks me tons of questions already.
>>102938990But my mom thinks I should so some sort of "Self evaluation" to present to my boss in order to get this. We're a small company and I'm heavily relied on but we don't do any sort of end of year reviews. Is this a waste of time?
>>102938795being able to afford a house and expand it to build a custom gooncave
Can I get on disability for having too much farts?
>>102939154>self evaluationevery other department aside from IT does this in my compthe leaders here deemed it unnecessary bloat because everyone sees and knows what anyone doeshow?a fuckup is felt dept wide
>>102939215If they don't smell good, yes.

>>102939476just do the same thing
>>102939380What broke you is all the porn and social media you fuck your brain with; not your work, anon.
>>102939579>normalfags used to shame you and call you weird if you weren’t on social media>normalfags now shame you and call you weird if you are on social mediaSo we’re you wrong then or are you wrong now? Pick one
>>102939649you're a loser because you think normalfags have any authority of what you should be doing.
>saaaaaar, site is up now, team is investigation for root cause & will update you saar
>>102939649>implying I am a normalfag>implying I asked you to be or not be on social mediaBy social media I meant mindless scrolling and rubbing your cock when there's a cute girl; all day long.
>>102939711What else is there? Heterosexual relationships are virtually banned in the west, all we have left is porn
We get no work done on our day in officeThey basically just treat it as a social and stand around the coffee machine talking all day
>>102937327Had a technical interview yesterday and feel it went well, the HR roastie even emailed me after asking me to fill out their corpo formatted resume ASAP because they want to fill this role quickly. However now it's almost 24 hours later and haven't heard anything since, is it over?
These people want me to drive 2 hours to HQ instead of the usual office location for a single meeting about employee survey feedback today. There are better ways to go about this without wasting people's time. RTO is one thing, but having people drive to different office locations for a lousy meeting is insanity.Fuck that, I'm calling in sick today instead.
>>102939542Literally this. It’s not the 90s anymore, you aren’t going to get that promotion because you showed up at 7:55 when everyone else came in at 8:27. Do what you need to do to stay out of trouble and no more
>>102939380>the no docs, no testing, no architecture, no design, no reviews, no version control, no planning, full agile scrum inferno finally breaks me for goodNice work lasting so longI'm 8 months into the same situation and every day that passes I feel closer to the edge
>>102939747lol
>>102939747nasty coomer
>>102939747>all we have is porn>all we have is alcohol>all we have is weed>all we have is junk foodIm no saint, but this is not a healthy mindset to get into. If you think that the only thing you have in life is a vice, that’s a you problem
>>102939773No one who works in HR has an IQ high enough to behave in a predictable manner. Never interpret anything they do or say as meaning anything at all
before you get the pitchforks, I work for my university's helldesk.is work even that much different from school? Every semester is spent cramming shit into my brain that's excised almost immediately after to make way for more fucking shit the following semester. I only have one more left, but I'm worried that the expectation that I'm going to be "free" after graduating is naive and I'm still going to be tired and having to learn shit I don't care about just to keep up a career. the last cope is that I'm getting paid for it in a job as opposed to a classroom setting, but my question to those beyond my years in this thread is whether that's enough.
>>102939982>whether that's enough.It's not. The challenge is finding a way out, otherwise you'll spent your years dead inside.
>>102939893I think you're right. I've found that HR tends to lie a lot.
Would you give up formal employment forever to run bathhouse with 2-4 other friends and acquaintance from your university and neighborhood?
>>102939982at work the shit you'll be learning will be awful legacy code that no one ever has time to fix
>company announces layoffs soon>somewhat hope it will be me
>>102940093>Would you give up formal employment foreveryes
Definitely going to be pushed out during stack ranking. Just have to survive through February for my bests. I'm banking that PIPs aren't delivered until January and that I go on paternity leave before I get it. If everything works out I get the equivalent of my salary through July.
>>102939747You will only know when you go without porn for a few months. I'm on year 3 and feeling much better. Can't even imagine myself watching porn again. It's fucking disgusting.
>>102937554>if i cant break a devs balls at his tableyou're the asshole that keeps me from getting anything done. site the fuck down and wait your goddamn turn
What does it mean when the US Army Cyber Command is looking at my Linkedin? Do they want me to enlist? I make too much money.>>102938305Anon I live quite well on 70kI just invest 30% of my income
>>102939747>Heterosexual relationships are virtually banned in the westAs a faggot allow me to slightly correct that - gay men essentially no longer exist. Everyone is now MtF or some twitter made up shit. You can't just be a guy who likes guys.It's more like anything that doesn't involve trannies is banned.
>>102940385post portfolio
>>102937554Are you saying this because you suspect one of your co-workers fucking your wife while wfh while you're stuck in the office?He maybe on mute on the stand up, but that's to cover the moans of him knocking her up.
>>102940504In wat? I’m currently dumping all of my money into a 4% savings account and feel like a dumb goyThinking about starting day trading
>>102940525>unrepentant faggot stared into the abyss >shocked when it stared backYou don’t get to complain about trannies as a fagYou were just phase 1Take the whole tradfag nonsense to reddit
>>102937428Maybe your office sucks and it's not just that you have to go in. It's where you have to go in. My office has free snacks and a free coffee bar. It's on a nice side of town with plenty of places to walk around to if I want to get out for a little. If I worked at some fluorescent light jeet farm I'd probably hate it too though.
>>102938451Negative 10x.
>>102938451There’s a theory that some devs are 10 times (10x) as productive as a regular dev. The anon was making a joke about the other side of that theory, that some employees must necessarily make the workplace less productive. Some managers take that to the extreme and must be “-10x” managers
>>102937814>300k>No good morning message>Drink free coffee>Take a shit >Refresh my pr to see if anybody approved yet >Nobody has because the rest of the team is doing what I'm doing>Watch YouTube videos and go for a walk>Attend meetings silentlyIt's back breaking work, honestly.
>>102938903There's zero chance your average rate is 35%. Maybe your marginal but if you're really paying 35% in America it's probably because you live in NYC or California. I'd tell you to move but you're better to stay, actually. ;^)
>"getting this error anon please help">tell them to try X>"it's giving same error anon">check logs>it's a different error>tell them>"quick call?"At what point do these people admit they don't want to read logs or actually look at error messages or do a few minutes of critical fucking thinking and that they just want someone else to do their work for themWe've lost all but one other person I'd consider an expert and they've learned he won't reply to messages so they just default to forcing me to answer (cold calls, repeated messaging, etc) to solve their problemsI'm not asking for them to become stellar programmers I just want them to show the tiniest bit of effort
>>102940815just tell them youre busy right now but will get back to them later
>>102940719The way the world is right now I can't really tell if you're a deranged discord tranny or a neocon chud.
>>102940906I’d love to hear you define neocon
>>102939380You will never ever get hired doing a cold apply. You absolutely need a referral. Make friends that work at these other companies and ask them to refer you. At the very least that gets you an automatic call with the recruiter and if your personality isn't shit, a call with the hiring manager which if you're not obviously full of shit, a technical interview. Basically a referral skips a few steps. Absolutely necessary in a world where jeets bot spam every job entry within seconds. No recruiter could possibly read through 10k resumes to find a good candidate and they'll always defer to referral hires when possible.
>>102939476Don't be mad. You should be doing the same thing honestly. I've got way too much sick leave stocked up because I feel bad to abuse it. But they give you that much with the expectation that you SHOULD use it. Your coworker has the right idea. Fuck these companies. Take off at the slightest inconvenience to you. It's part of the benefits package.
Morning sars
I ask my coworker questions then pull out my phone immediately after he answers and then I end up forgetting what he said
need some serious advice on salary negotiations. I joined this company 6 months ago at 125k. I referred my old coworker this month and he got an offer at 140k at the same level doing identical work. My experience at other companies has been asking for more money without an offer just ends in getting told to eat shit and I haven't been here long enough to jump ship. what's my best move?
>>102941196Does he have better hair than you?
I work for an organization of roughly 40,000. I am currently sitting in a meeting with HR and other tech teams about removing the ability to upload profile pictures to AD and our other systems because people won't stop uploading anime and furry pictures. What is wrong with people, is it really that hard to leave the autism at the door when you go into work?
I'm at the office doing absolutely nothing, and have nothing to do.None of my teammates work within the same city as me, let alone the building.This must be the real power of RTO.
>>102941364Try hanging by the water cooler! Get to know the workers in your space! I'm told by my consultants that will increase worker productivity!
Grinded leetcode and now I'm at a fagman with x3 the original salary, now what?
>>102941278no, some of this is just bad timing on when I jumped, wages have gone up a bit here as client demand jumped up after I joined.
>>102940719wonder why you people love to invent deranged connections between two unrelated things to feel victimized>>102940906both are equally retarded>>102940525yeah it's shit, I look up some cute boys and they're all trans and shit
>>102941726Both you and him just got done complaining that you can’t find any faggots these days because they’re all trans now and then you say I’m “inventing deranged connections” between these things.So not only are you a faggot but you’re fucking stupid as well
>>102940815Slow role helping them until the last possible second. It's not your job and they treat you like it is. You're an enabler.
>>102941726>I look up some cute boys and they're all trans and shitToypics being a good thermometer of this. Formerly full of cute boys lewdly riding enormous dragon dildos, now it's full of fat trannies.It's so over.
>>102941911trannies jumping on top of the wave of gay legalization to seek a new enemy to fight has nothing to do with fags who just wanted to be fagsLGB is where it ended, the T was added by people who saw the movement was dying out now that their goal was achieved and wanted to keep milking the money

i have had a decent wfh job for a bit but probably going to start applying for more stuff hopefully can find some wfh thingthey just decided to fuck up the company the past couple months, fired all QA people move people between different teams 80 times and now instead of 1 team focusing on a couple repos every repo has 6 different teams working on it with 0 procedures or standards or qa or plans for what people will work on, with stuff getting merged into prod without anyone even running it once. hoping the job market isn't really that bad...I've only ever worked remote.
>>102942333W-T-F do you work at my company?
Among the thousands of employees in my company, my product owner picked my one crush to test my stuff. Keep trying to move on but fate makes it impossible at this point.

How are things in your company? In mine it’s directors and managers getting the ax before small people, I love it but it also means nobody wants to get promoted and hold more responsibilities.

>>102943598You were supposed to make friends in college. Those friends get jobs and you get referrals into those companies. Make friends at the new company and connect with those people and repeat until you retire. If you haven't made friends in college then you should go to tech meetups in your given space. Network with the people there and somebody might be willing to refer you if they think you're nice. It's not a hard lift either. Most companies give referral bonuses of a few thousand dollars if you're hired for at least 90 days. They're incentivized to hire referrals on all levels.30-40% of new hires are referral despite only being like 15% of applications. The rest are cold apply but those have like a 2% success rate. So do you want to apply to 50 companies or 3? Choose wisely?

You'll be fine. No jokes. Look into meditation and realize that you're always worthy of love. When you're over that broken mindset, get out to meetups. You don't even need to meet anybody the first time. Just show up, listen to the talk, eat the food, and maybe you'll talk to somebody. No stress if you don't. Just keep going until you do.

>I just masterb8ed all day and did 0 work>still got paidworking remote is the ultimate life hack
>>102944558Is there just a cert I can get that will prove I'm not retarded. I don't even need to make that much.
>>102944568I'm lazy bald fuck, I still know how to google basic shit, I'm bald not stupid.

>>102938856i make 27k€ a year. you don't know what suffering is.
>>102944741Depends on the meetup. I've gone to ones that are specific to some frameworks or others hosted by Amazon and Microsoft about hiring younger people into the industry. Usually you'll have a host give a presentation on some aspect of why their thing is worth while then they'll open up go questions before dismissing to a social hour. Free food and drinks where you can talk about tech with people in your field.
>>102944766I made less than that in my placement year

>>102944785No. Like I said you can just sign up and show up without saying anything to anybody but the person at the check in desk. Show up, listen to the presentation, hang around and eat the free food, leave when you're ready. Repeat. This is your tech version of "putting yourself out there".

This isn't a tech company. Do I tell my manager I want a senior title & senior pay, or is that inappropriate considering this assignment is only "for a few months(TM)"?
>>102944518They absolutely do. It is slowing down, but it's still not back to sane levels yet.
>>102945615ask for the raise and don't lift a finger until you have it
>>102945702Honestly I think this is what I'm gonna do. I have enough income from my consulting gigs to survive. But this job has been so comfy until now...
>>102945702NTA, but I think that's insane. With the way the market is right now it makes no sense. Not even quiet quitting is en vogue anymore, let alone crossing your arms and asking for a raise.
>>102945780I have a bunch of consulting work that's in my backlog as I'm currently too busy. I'll be fine if I lose this job. I'd definitely prefer if things just stayed the same, but when I asked if this reassignment is set in stone, what I understood from the word salad was "yes"
>>102945852Self-employment could be the ultimate pill if you have the means of acquiring clients. Work on stuff you want, at your pace (given you follow deadlines) etc. Just be careful as you'll be replacing a manager/boss with customers, which can be an improvement or a downgrade depending on your situation.

My jeet manager wanted me to attend some early morning meeting but he never sent over the invite. That dude has some kind of brain deficiency because he forgets things within seconds. Oh well, one less meeting to drudge through.
>company is trying to make me do a take-home assignment for their job interviews>the salary they offer is actually less than what I currently makeWhy do small and mid sized companies have the nerve to make you do all this bullshit? FAANG at least pays you handsomely (and asks normal leetcode questions so the time you spend leetcoding can help you interview at other FAANGs)
>>102947753Don't expect a super strict code review, essentially they just want to know if you're able to transfer basic instructions into working code. You might be able to GPT your way through this if you're not a dumbass at prompting. It's 10x better than a technical/coding interview, imho.
>>102947790Kek, you can tell I'm a boomer by the fact that my first thought was to actually try to run this rather than ask chatGPT
>>102947805You're honest, but alas that is a bad thing in the modern workplace.I've adopted the Jira ticket-to-ChatGPT pipeline to make 8 hours of my life less miserable.
>>102947753I prefer those take homes compared to LC. With LC you have to memorize those random functions that you'd never use in production code. For the take home at least you get to look things up. It is a much better gauge than whether you've memorized a bunch of solutions.
>>102947838Underrated opinion.Jeets are excellent at Leetcode. This does not make them good developers.
>>102947838100%, when I do hiring take homes are just better. It doesn’t take more time than the day-long multiple rounds of leetcode spam, and it’s a better signal.

>>102947867 >>102947967The jeets can still cheat on the take home. Usually there's a 2nd followup taske you do via live coding in addition to explaining what the code does. Overall it is still way better than those esoteric function quizzes.
>>102948077But anon, code is like peeing, I can't do it if you're looking.
>>102948077I do a follow up where I just talk to them about it in a way they wouldn’t understand if they didn’t do it.And, well, if they cheated they won’t last more than a few weeks anyway. Hire fast fire fast

Should I be multitasking more? I've spent the last two days making changes in a product that takes 30 minutes to compile every time (no intermediate targets and it rebuilds every object file every time). I've probably spent half my time this week waiting for this to compile. But I have to make similar changes in other modules and it just occurred to me that I could open up another window and work on the smaller ones while the big one is compiling. I've been feeling like my productivity is lower than the rest of my team; is this why?

Alright senpaisnow that I've gotten almost 2yoe, I think it's time to hop to a new job. tips for writing a cover letter? do they even matter? I didn't submit one for my current job, but i guess it doesn't hurt to write one. Also how's the job market right now? better than the start of 2023? I'm hoping it won't be as soul crushing to apply now that I have some experience and am not desperate for a job.
work in 8 hours
>>102950297>do they even matter?They used to make a big difference. I knew someone whose application immediately went to the front of the pile because they attached a cover letter, and they were told so. I don't know if that's still the case — anyone can effortlessly have an LLM write a cover letter for them now.

>>102950536If your org uses any kind of DLP a bulk-sent email likely won't even leave your company's mail server and you'll need to request it to be removed from quarantine which will be awkward.You could use a USB as anon said but unless your IT team is pants on head retarded they've hopefully disabled USB port access for all devices.If it was me I'd zip everything and encrypt what it is you want (7zip, etc) and upload it to a single-use cloud storage depository (Drive, Mega, etc), or alternatively if I had access to said files on work-phone, save them locally and transfer them to your PC that way.

>>102951199Fuck no. I have a job. I just wanted to keep in touch with the market. Literally every open position looks like this. And even jr. Jobs are actually intermediate positions. E.g. Found jr.

>>102951304I think they're just an excuse to filter anyone because they get so many applicants. I've heard of people who actually do have those hyper specific specifications and they get ghosted or told to fuck off too.
>>102951401Or the job isn't even real. Many such cases.
>>102951411Yeah I've heard that too. The listing is there to either make a stink about how no one qualified is willing to work or they're looking for a golden goose who's willing to work for peanuts.

>>102951401My buddy is also in IT and the "CTO" of the company is heavily involved in the hiring process. They included 2 requirements of tech with experience of 3 years. They use this tech barely 1.5years themselves. Meaning none of the currently employed devs could even be hired in the same company they already working at. It's hilarious.
>>102951461Holy fucking basedBtw literal boomers have quicksand fetishes extremely commonly because it was a trope on their tv shows and movies, especially in the 60s. It's a super common fetish with old guys because of that.
I just started a position but two other companies have been reaching out to me for interviews. Both places have better pay, benefits, and conditions. How do I peace out of a place I only work ~1 month for? Do I whip out the "this job isn't exactly what I was expecting" card?

She did a great job, hung out and wore a fake Walmart ring, we are getting married June 3 2025 at a small wedding with only our families and we met while I was on a base in the Midwest I got sent too by accident. My coworkers ate it up, the problem is the other wives liked her a lot and exchange numbers, so hopefully nothing gets crazier even though, one of the wives also works in the company and we had a client meeting together. She asked me during the meeting how my fiancée was and it took me a while to register what she said. Either way, me and the IG girl are cool. I dropped her off at home after the outing and paid her. She gave me a hug a kiss on the cheek and said she had a good time. That was Saturday night, she texted me Monday afternoon and I haven’t replied. She just said “hey! How’s it going! ^_^!” Did I just get a girlfriend?
