Honestly i just had a magical morning where i said "it can't go on like this", went to the job center and asked for current positions. Obviously all dogshit, so i got into the interview spiel for a 5? months until i landed a L1-L2 support job. Lots of convincing myself that the current mindset is wrong and i'm exhausted cause nothing's happening.

I single handedly ran a SaaS instance for a Fortune 500 corporation with distinction after climbing the support ladder for a few years. Not really a tech job since software provider took care of most of the technicals but would that be enough of a background if I wanted to become a REAL system administrator?

I recently got laid off and have some questions:
I got a "big" pay and almost 2 years of government pay, it's bad for my career to take maybe 6 month of neet life? I have only 5 years of active job.
My boss said he would get me a recommendation letter, he didn't, it's that important? I was laid off half for being lazy and half for a 15% cut on employment
Does anyone knows how bad it's the software development market in Europe?

Unironically, why the fuck don't you work in the field you spent years of your life getting an education in?

Spending your youth becoming a mechanical engineer with engineering management credentials to just dabble in Python and "get a tech job" is a waste of your time. Tech is saturated and currently teetering on a bubble that will pop. There are people with 10+ years experience and a BS in Computer Science scrounging the bottom of the barrel for any coding job. Your post is the equivalent of "I just finished my MD but don't like it. I hit some free throws in the front yard and now I'm thinking about trying out for the Boston Celtics, what are my options?"

> im tired of wageslaving shit jobs i dont even know what to do
Guess what, tech sucks too. You'll spend your entire life on the brink of not being sure if you're gonna be outsourced, PIPed out or the company you're at will collapse first. When it's time to get a new job, you can relearn arbitrary bullshit to pass a hazing ritual with an interviewer who actively wants you to fail.

I know you think I'm being a dick, but I'm saving you from wasting your life. I have 13 years experience and have served as a manager and director/VP. I know a guy like you (engineer who pivoted into tech). He got laid off almost 3 years ago and he still doesn't have another job, I think he dabbled in short-term contract work while his wife works. Ask if that's the future you want.

Like I said, I'm not allowed to touch that money. It's all going to Amerindian charities because they're retarded Okies. They think work is "noble." I tried to tell them multiple times that jobs are basically over and have been since 2008 but it doesn't matter. In their diseased minds DoorDashing for Indians that drive G-Wagons that they were rewarded with for making software worse is in fact what someone is supposed to do with their life, even while slipping into the permanent underclass. Life is in fact, just a joke and the only people who win ate born with amazing genetics or a trust fund. Love and family and all that stupid crap people tell themselves to cope with not being those things don't exist, and only the material world will ever matter.

Certifications + projects and actually knowing how to do the work they were asking of me. It takes a few months of studying to learn how to manage AWS shit. Degrees are a bullshit fluff shit test for boomers. 90% of the jobs in tech don't require a degree, just a high IQ.

if you're over 18 it's unironically over for you. These guys hopped on steroids and peptides when they were 16 and used a shit load of tricks to maximize their puberty window and grow as much bone / muscle as possible in a short time frame, which is why they look off putting. They flooded their body with growth hormone to develop unnatural amounts of bone. That doesn't work when your growth plates have closed and you're in your 20s.
You can still do it, but you will have to be on damaging steroids for years and will still see a fraction of the results that they had.
The realistic shit you can do now is to hop on tirzepatide / retatrutide and lose a shit load of weight, which will make you 10x more attractive. But I'm talking a lot of weight, most people have to go down to 120-140 pounds to look similar to them (only because they have so much muscle from roids, if they didn't they would also have to be 120-140 pounds to have the same bodyfat percentage).

Theres no such thing as comfy studying
I pick up QA for a week then web jobs pops up all over the place
I pick up to study webdev + laravel, QA jobs pops up all over the place
I pick up to study excel, QA + web + IT helpdesk jobs pops up and my mom suddenly wants me to make a website
I pick up helpdesk, QA web excel job pops up

When i decide to leave all behind and commit to drawing and animation 1-4 hours a day, i get even more left behind

Unemployment is pure suffering. Whatever choice you make, you study for nothing anyway and dont get the job or money at all

I know your pain, I studied for an age to work towards data engineering, even worked in similar roles
And the job market is just gone, unless you're already very senior

had an interview last week that went really well (from my pov), what sucks is that it's still a competition and someone else could have gone even better

>revolutionized american politics, permanently changed america's demographics for the worse, completely collapsed american foreign policy, destroyed free trade, and reoriented geopolitical strategy towards anti chinese antagonism while also causing the ukraine war and the upcoming shit storm in the middle east
i voted for that

Anyone experienced with "Unsolicited application"? (not sure that's the good term in english)

I was thinking the process goes like
>List companies that typically hire in your field
>Find someone on Linkedin? or find an email to join? or find a section on their website to sponatneously apply?
>send CV
>Never hear back

is it a successful practice? should I start conversations on Linkedin without expecting anything instead? is it just boomer leftover advice that used to work but doesn't anymore, or just works if you got lots of xp?

AFTER ~200 REJECTIONS I FINALLY GOT AN INTERVIEW LET'S GOOOOOOO

It's for a shitty internal helpdesk position, but I'll take anything that's not flipping burgers at this point

In my view, those are for people who are overqualified for the listed positions.
As a company you might not need a second head of sales, but if they can show that they are capable of selling much more products than the existing head of sales, you'd be an idiot not to hire him.

Good look anon.

After like 300 applications I finally got a job that consists of like 2 hours of actual work a day and the rest of the time I just play vidya and browse the internet. The clown world is real and we are living in it.

You can't get rich off this
You can get rich off furry porn. Plus if all you want is a paycheck you could draw consistently for two, three years until your patreon is filled up then put out three drawings a year. People are lazy and often just forget to unsubscribe their $5/m donations.

I think it means social media influencer. Those people are actually just clowns with an audience.

Companies are rapidly increasing headcounts right now so unemployment should end

How many furries do you think go into Anthropology and end up being very very disappointed?

>>108221383
Will take a while for me to do that but im not entirely close on the idea. Hell, i know drawing porn in general will bring me faster income for triple or quad the money.

I just need to secure $500 a month first then i can draw fulltime. Right now i only have 8-10 hours a week for drawinv

>>108221971
Nobody gets that job in my country. It all boils down to luck. They could be lying. 80% of third world population is making $100-300 a month no matter if you're aged 20 or 30.

>>108221992
I'll take your words for it.

>>108222094
Why would they do that with AI available?
