I understand why criminals commit crime. I’m not talking about rapists or those who commit sexual assault; I’m referring to people who shoplift, rob others of their money and belongings, or are involved in organised crime syndicates for financial reasons. Growing up, I used to believe that going to university, getting a degree, starting a career, getting married, starting a family, and owning a house and a car were a safe, stable, and secure path in life. However, with how society is changing so significantly and so rapidly, and with the way my government is operating, that is not in the interests of the people, I believe that many people who are in the same position as me can no longer continue in the same way. This unemployment, this economic instability, this political instability, this new norm, I refuse to accept it as my future. I genuinely hope that a collapse will come sooner or later.

>>108060637
In the grander scale, you're going back to serfdom/peasant tier poverty. The idea that the rich let you exist with a significant portion of their wealth is a temporary idea that was born from the massive blood loss of ww1 and 2. With excess people again, and the military tide in their favor again, they can now use force to keep you from committing too much crime (like revolution). Not that they need to since they have new tools such as modern media, advanced propaganda, and the ability to control your economic prosperity based on how much you believe their lies. If you believe their lies (Equity, all races are equal) then you get a chance to compete for labor and financial rewards. If you do not, you get to compete for scraps. If you choose crime, they have force on their side to deal with you.
In theory at least. Smart criminals obviously usually get away with it.

>>108060713
>Option 1: Go down a life of crime and get shafted by the state by force
>Option 2: Keep the system’s engines running by following its rules and you may have a chance at succeeding.
The issue I see with the second option is that too many people believe and follow this idea. That’s why there are so many graduates in the same situation, unemployed, hopeless, believing that they’ll get a job and make it in life. But sooner or later, they realize that having a job isn’t enough because they can’t afford rising house prices, a car, or starting a family. The system will eventually cease to exist if people take the red pill and decide that the system they live in is not going to work out and will not benefit them, and therefore requires radical change. For the first option, that’s true. The state does have the tools and power to monitor and keep criminals in check. However, that only works if people agree to it. If a vast majority decide to go down option one, the state loses control and power.

I’m trapped in a job for literal retards. I literally saw a 60 minutes bit where they had this outreach program for actual retards where they gave them jobs and my job was on of them. If I dropped out of high school, went to prison, fell into a coma, slept for 10 years, and woke up with an IQ 60% lower than what it actually is, my position in life would be no different. Everything bit of education, training, and achievement from and including 8th grade had amounted to nothing. Pic unrelated

>>108062505
hey listen little guy. nice job sending that message. I'm sure it must have been pretty hard for you to type and click send. I think you're doing great. you can't compare yourself to other handy cappable people. just do your best.

I ate a bunch of prunes before my interview and didn't even contemplate what that might do. Not even 10 minutes into the interview and I'm sweating bullets on the verge of sharting my guts out. Something must have shown because the hiring manager asked if I was okay. I asked to use the restroom and he said it would disqualify me because we hadn't passed the technical portion yet. I know if I stayed I would have shit myself so I just slow walked to the bathroom trying my hardest not to ruin my slacks. Hiring manager even had to escort me the whole way because it was an employee bathroom. Now I had this guy standing right outside my stall as I'm absolutely destroying the porcelain with thunderous sharts. I have never wanted to die more in my life than at that moment. I think the hiring manager felt bad for me and offered to reschedule the interview but I didn't even respond because what the fuck, I would never live this down if I worked there.

>>108061166
>I would like to earn X amount of euro-currencies.

and let it roll forward

this has worked for me before. because i was open to lowballing, and because the recruiter would look distrustworthy deflecting a *second* question, the recruiter didn't have much choice except to disclose the salary range. they also tried to get me to disclose my expectation and failed because of this approach.

Now:
>1h video call with some HR person
>1h on site meeting with lead
>2h online test with 6 leetcode style problems
>2h tech video call with multiple people where they quiz you about system design and also make you do another leetcode problem live for good measure
>1h video call with "vibe manager"
>30m call with HR person who offers you a job
Those leetcode tests caught me completelty off guard. Like wtf is that circus shit? They could just as well ask applicants to juggle tennis balls.

not really. closest thing would probably be freelance web dev where you make websites for people. getting into that was always hard because you're competing with a billion other people on fiverr but also anyone with half a brain and no programming knowledge can make a site with square space. you'd have to first have a really good portfolio and then have the have the good sense/social skills to track down your own leads and pitch to them why they should hire you

the closest thing otherwise is contract work, which is a "fullblown job", just for a shorter term and usually without any benefits (timeoff, insurance, etc)

if you're imagining something like a company needing a little script but having nobody capable at their company, so they put an ad out for somebody to just do this one thing, then yeah that really doesn't exist. only time i've heard of anything close to that was i had this friend who was pretty good at some niche programing language and had networked a ton with companies who use it, so like once a year one of those companies would reach out for some freelance work. but that's the kind of unique situation you shouldn't really try to emulate since getting good in something niche and building a network are way harder than getting a normal job

it's relevant advice but definitely not something you can solely rely on. the hardest thing right now is even getting to the point where you have the opportunity to fake it. you first have to be lucky enough to be one of the few resumes a hiring manager even bothers reading

Make a new job website, then lobby the government to make it illegal to hire anyone except through your website. Obviously a site like that would be better off being owned by the government, but modern society doesn't give a fuck about corporate monopolies so get ready.

i was following one guy on twitter specifically because he was making fun of juniors on cscareerquestions and saying anyone who's remotely good can find a job. i read his tweets for over a year and then he ended up posting a sob story about how he got laid off and can't find anything and now he's pivoted to IT.

No, the barrier to entry now is much higher since the market is saturated. Real world experience doesn't translate 1:1 to interview success in this field because of shit like leetcode. Seniors think they're hot shit because they can set up an sql database meanwhile the interviews are going to ask them to find the longest common subsequence in "nigger" and "faggot", which causes them to shit themselves because they haven't used binary search in a decade. And companies don't give a shit if it's an unfair filter because they have 11 other "senior" level candidates that will jump through all of those hoops.

this is why high tech worker unemployment is a genuine national security threat. not that the "people" (jews) in power care, they want this country to burn to the ground. but if the tech unemployment problem gets bad enough, there will be a massive increase in domestic black hat hacking, and they will exploit non-internet-based attack vectors that third worlders simply can't use, that security teams haven't been hardening their systems against.

We were 40 hours but it was flexible. So if something is on fire in production or testing goes late, which happens quite often, and you worked say 10 or 12 hours on Monday, you could just take off that extra time later in the week.

But after a round of layoffs and "implementing scrum mastering" for our company, yes they phrased it that way, they noticed that "for some reason productivity isn't as high as it was before on a group and individual level". So now the new rule is you need to work 8 hours every single day mon-fri regardless of extra hours. So people are working many 9-12 hour days now without being compensated with extra pay or time off and management is celebrating getting productivity back on track. When in reality moral is at an all time low and no one gives a shit anymore. The general attitude is "we're going to half ass it until you let me go" now

Also theres a ton of water cooler talk that if bonuses come in low this year despite this extra time worked everyone is just updating their resume and looking to quit
>>108076996
The issue is that because my company has embraced scrum master bullshit every single task needs its own testing and review as its own project. So it becomes a lot of extra work to break up a task into multiple peaces for no reason.

Like for example, really fucking simple, if we have a task that requires me to make a 1) code file 2) update a label 3) update a form 4) update a table, then they are debating having every single one of those be its own project within visual studio. You're breaking up one project into multiple projects and then they want to join them together into one project/solution after its all done.

I was on the meeting with a senior dev as management tried to explain it and I could see him dying inside because he realized this company is fucked

The problem with "Just start your own business!" is that it doesn't apply to IT. You can't remotely solve a plumbing problem, ergo small plumbing businesses can sprout up organically. You can't remotely solve an electrical problem, ergo small electrical businesses can sprout up organically. You can absolutely remotely solve an IT problem (excluding extremely niche fields like infrastructure), hence monopolies like AWS and Microsoft crushing any and all competitors who germinate. Even the bullshit government contracts that are supposed to go to small businesses are all gobbled up by subsidiaries of said monopolies.

I guess you could start a cabling/fiber business but you're really more construction than IT at that point.

AI is going to make so many jobs redundant.

That makes alot of sense actually. Personally if a team adopts scrum I immediately look for ways out.

>>108077826
AWS/Microsoft aren't going into every niche in existence. What you need is focusing on resolving an IT issue for customers and handing out a subscription.

honestly with economic trends basically everything got ruined in the late 80s. i don't believe we're "post scarcity" nor do I believe in "late stage capitalism" but something fundamentally broke once a few nations got powerful enough to prop up people creating value from noithing

same with gold standard shit. i think they miss the forest for the trees. we need a few fundamental units of exchange to just make things easy and peg value to something intangible and not normally changing but that thing we found at some point is now volatile. I'm too uneducated and outright stupid to figure it out but it's increasingly obvious that to have a maid serve you a piece of cake objectively costs more than the cake. but the entire System for like 50 years has been obsessed with trying to prove that the cake can be made cheaper elsewhere, yet somehow also serving the cake "adds value".

got ghosted from a job that i thought i had a good chance of getting. it was for a college that i am an alum of... they were asking for like 4 years of experience while i have 10 (only 7 as a developer though). but man not even getting a response kinda hurts. i really thought i would at least get an interview.
