My #1 goal in life right now is to get a job at some stodgy insurance company that works 100% in office so I can just sit in my cubicle and watch HR milfs with visible panty lines walk by my cubicle all day. Then I can go to the break room/cafeteria and spend more time looking at 40 year old moms with panty lines.

If anybody has tips on how to get a job at an office where every woman has extremely apparent and personally embarrassing panty lines, please share them with me. This whole WFH thing is sapping my will to live and the only thing that will restore it is office lady panty lines

Anyone else work for a company that likes to pressure it's employees to "volunteer" for things? Like even get your co-workers to pressure other co-workers into joining it?
Nothing wrong with volunteering in and of itself, hell it gives me an excuse to chill and tell people to fuck off that are competing for a time slot.
It's when they keep pestering people into joining these things to the point that I wonder if it's really volunteering in the first place.
You can to choose not to go, but some high ranking heads in the company will be there and that may not look great on you if you weren't there. They will even move heaven and earth to make sure you got no important meetings during that time either, so no excuses there.

I was too honest in my phone interview today and I feel like the recruiter wasn't impressed by my lack of experience (3 YOE SWE doing basic shit).
>>
I'm not a dev but I do program stuff from time to time, and I have an issue: I am able to think more clearly and far better... at night. like, at 11pm and beyond, until like 4-8am. for example, last night I came up with some stuff for some personal project that I hadn't been able to think of for like a year. I have a relatively noisy environment (though very quiet when there is no noise) and I blame that, but I also blame the potential of being interrupted by a coworker, family or whatever.
what the fuck do I do?

Contractor. Alternatively, apply for a remote position for a company on the other side of the world.

This is a problem too, though I was mainly referring literal volunteering events that are for helping kids and shit.

Honestly, as a product manager myself, I hate that I have to do that shit, but we have no authority over the engineers here and I have so much pressure to get shit done that I have to resort to begging the friendly engineers, like a cuck, to help me out.

I always tell their managers to promote the ones that help me so I hope I am giving back in that way at least. Never become a PM.

>>
>>106597820
>I always tell their managers to promote the ones that help me so I hope I am giving back in that way at least.
$5 says a C-suite several heads above that manager is told no on that promotion and now that dev is still going to be pestered to keep "volunteering" since they already proven they'll do it and feel like a sucker because of it.
Nothing against PMs, I just know that promotion is unlikely because at least at the place I work at. They do it by seeing if the employee is doing better than any of their peers on the team for several years straight before being considered for a promotion.
>>
>>106597993
At my place, besides the ridiculous yearly rise to cover inflation, you only get a decent rise if you have an offer from another company. I've been through this with my manager a couple of times and I eventually gave up. Last year I did the bare minimum, slacking off as much as I could and still got the same raise, plus a bonus.

Yes, at the Redmond campuses we have to pay for lunch. It's not that expensive. The sandwich and fries was $11, which is cheaper than anything else nearby, and good quality for the price. At the Silicon Valley campus, meals are free, but people die there a lot. Most drinks are free everywhere.

In this case I think it would be more like corpo FAFO.
Bending over is certainly a valid strategy, in fact, 2 weeks on autopilot is not that bad, but you can also consider the alternative and make something out of it

No offense but from your couple of sentences you posted here, you sound clinically retarded, and I'm surprised they even hired you in the first place. Stop caring about your headcanon about the philosophies of your higher ups and make sure you do the job you were hired to do properly. If you have a problem, speak up on the appropriate channels. How hard is this to understand?
I mean I'm not complaining too much, given that people who actually do basic communication as expected are perceived as being more proactive than at least 60% of employees.

I feel like the key to group meetings is to just vibe with the crew while sort of being productive (every now and then an important detail gets resolved)

I did not survive my last programming job because I took the project and my reputation as a programmer way too serious, stepping on people's toes and getting myself hotheaded

Probably better to look at the bigger picture and keep things light and comfy, and the key to that might be to stop thinking so much.

always be leaving and plot your revenge. Give them enough rope to hang themselves. Audit everything, it will come in handy when shit hits the fan. You are supposed to be smart if you work in IT, you must be able to demonstrate the low level skill of how to inconvenience your boss at the worst moment possible
>>
>>106603862
The real meme is not focusing on Reading/Math. Everything else is extra for education.
>>
>>106603862
Yeah I realized way too late that being a doctor is 10x better than the STEM meme. My GF gets to have a flexible schedule, and can make like $2k in a single day if she wants to, impossible to not have a job, highly respected, etc. The residency/training sucked but after that you are golden for the rest of your life. Will be telling my kids to go that route instead of tech for sure.

I think medicine and law have sufficiently entrenched lobbies that won't happen. Regardless, the goal is to get into the charmed life of a highly paid American megacorp worker, weather that's a F500 or large hospital network or BigLaw. It's night and day different from the bullshit you deal with in a small business, because at least you're compensated for your trouble.

Why do software engineers have to take on more non-software engineering work as their career progresses? Why can't I just remain an individual contributor and get paid more to do harder coding tasks? I understand that there's a ceiling to how much I can get paid doing this. I am ok with that. I don't want to be a project manager
>>
>>106605590
because the more experience you have the larger projects you can be responsible for, and the tool required to build large projects isnt coding but people. You are engineering a large complex solution but instead of writing functions and objects you are telling people what to do, and resolving conflicts and bugs and optimizing the allocation of those people.
>>
>>106605590
You get slow, old man. Younger brains work faster and the new kids aren’t 5 years from financial independence so they work themselves to the bone like you used to but you don’t now because you aren’t afraid of losing your job anymore. Just the way of the industry, and most people want to get a job with little effort and high pay. You can always program for free in your own time

it's considered a PIP factory (mandatory stack rank and bottom is gone each year) and is cheap with employee perks, as frugality is a core principle of the company. onsite food is just free bananas or something

you get paid well, but the stock is backloaded over the 4 years so company keeps most if they toss you.

ya you want to be tracking upwards towards whatever a "terminal level" is. probably senior
Some big positives:
1. amazon apparently makes getting (good) work done possible, so it should be possible with time and grit. some large companies are a mess to get anything impactful done in.
2. good tech
