Should I quit my SE job for a much higher-paying QA job? Almost double pay.
1st for remove the wolves from premises. Also today I had some sort of "see, I told you" combo, on 5 meetings in a row. I dislike code monkeys, it's unreal.
>>108401044Unironically maybe redeem the QA jobIt can pay as much or more than dev but you risk getting stuck here forevert. QA
>>108401090Is it a bad life?
>QAs back on the rise because of a never ending shitstorm of AI/Indian junk code
>>108401107We eating good.
>>108401107why not hire indians for qa and westerns for dev?
>>108401100If they're respected (which they are if they pay is good) it's pretty comfy.Usually less stress, though it's also kind of a buck stops here kind of role, so your covering for shitty devs and then people blame you for fuckups. >>108401122QA is more important saar
>>108401122Because are retarded lazy liars that will pass tests without playing them
>>108401090The position should be renamed to CA (cunny addict). It would instantly become popular.
>>108401032Happy Eid fellow corpocucks
>>108401142are you a pedophile
>>108401299Are you, blüd 67?
I will quit and grow tomatoes.
I'm starting to resent my employer and coworkers and frankly just want a change of scenery, but I get over 1 month of vacation (which I can take almost any time without asking permission) and the pay is still decent.Should I just be grateful or go looking?>>108401347>looks like your maters got cross contaminated with our trademarked genetics>you can settle out of court for 6 gorillion dollars>or we can got to court and we'll take everything from you and have you criminally charged with theft
>>108401064Also: why I never meet any fun people at work? Despite what internet claims, I never seen a real life furry. We got 20k it people at work.
>>108401044I want to switch to SE because my QA job pays like shit,
>>108401383Why the fuck do you want to see a furry? Those people aren't fun.
>>108401383We don't show up to work in fursuits, retard. By the way, I see what you're browsing on the corporate net.
>>108401474
>>108401136exactlyjeets in any position give ZERO fuckseven worse if it's one of those situations where an entire team of jeets is mass contracted by your orgwhere I work right now I'm pretty sure I could request my production AWS VPC to be nuked to oblivion tomorrow mid work day and have babu sir weapon of linux and system administration insta-approve it if I sounded at least semi-convincing
>>108401486Who is fun then? Asking for friends.>>108401494Good. That means, my cluster of log servers works. I see everything you do.
>>108401508kek good lad
An Indian on the team brown noses the CTO in the IT chat. I wish I could make this shit up
>>108401584India is a joke lmao
>>108401584without a shred of irony, in an imaginary world where consequences are not a thing, I would strangle this person to death for doing this
>>108401584Forrest?
>>108401584he looks white
>>108401383>why I never meet any fun people at work?while i havent had this issue, the people i really really want to meet are usually either too autistic and/or too busy to show up to the irl meetups that occur only once a yearlike "im too busy with work to show up for a work event" kind of autistically busy; which is a shame but... they are very hard workers>>108401122>indians for qathis sounds like a nighmare of jeets doing quite literally nothing whilst collectively nodding their heads in agreement that the fire thats currently consuming everything doesnt exist>>108401347i didnt quit and i still grow tomatoes, and this annoying rabbit would take a tiny nibble out of every single beefsteak tomatoe last year; it was very disappointing>>108401584Indians lack self awareness. I imagine that the entire process that led to this getting sent out had multiple steps and not once did the individual who sent it think "should i be embarassed by this?" or they probably defaulted to assuming it made them appear clever and valuable and totally not sucking up and using AI to fill the void which is their lack of creativityI obviously don't know what it sounds like but i dont need to to identify the premises as cringe
>>108401122Jeets can't respond properly to IaaS services under microsoft without blaming the person who is using the service. Even with proof they will spend an entire month moving the issue around other internal organizations then just randomly drop it as you yet again submit another weekly ticket for the issue still being present until some random eastern european actually fixes the issue. I am talking about microsoft aka durgasoft.
My dayjob is being a 3d artist at a game studio. I make wizards and orcs and goblins all day long. But that shit is meaningless. I wouldn't be making idiotic garbage like that if I wasn't paid for it. But no matter how I try to look for something that does have meaning or is interesting to make I just can't find something.Wtf am i supposed to do in life except work a stupid job, play videogames, and goon? I'm not happy but there's genuinely no alternative. I've tried making several indie games but there's just nothing worth making that wouldn't be pointless slop

>>108401865Soft coddled american devs doing 2 minutes of work per week for 200K could NEVER work in mining

>>108401908i earn 30k benchod puto
>>108401905I'm from arizona and contracted with the copper mines for their acid drip leech pads control systems. They are not places you want to live. Pay is fine if you can get out and retire early. But the normal mining workers outside of engineering and management? Massive drug and alcohol problems. They have special insurance plans for sending workers to rehab and special social workers for their case management after rehab.
>>108401839its great. i would encourage all current cs students to continue wasting your time and money. theres at least a quarter of a million people with cs degrees applying for the same entry level jobs, but youre special.

>>108401783That's a nice post and all, but it's too obvious this is made up bullshit posted as a setup for some sigma grindset grifter retard to bumble in and promote blue collar physical labor, replacing all hobbies with unpaid phsyical labor, and of course, fighting in the current culture war.>>108401839If you have a job, try to keep it. If you don't, you're fucked and may as well just die, which is exactly what everyone promoting aislop is planning for you.
>>108401122Indian QAs I have to interview will write a whole POM with 15 libraries imported and downloaded durgasoft helper functions to test 2 elements, and the tests will pass even when they shouldn't.A nation of pretentious scumbags doing things quickly to give the impression of expertise.
>>108401839>>108401996>fine if you have some years under your beltthis, if you didnt at least start having your foot in the door within the past 5 years i think you're cooked (or its an uphill battle that starts with basic bitch tech support jobs or nepotism, with nepotism being highly preferable)New graduates are literally undesirables, to the extent that entry-level positions require 5 years of experience which, basically means they arent even looking for entry level applicants, but whoever they are looking for they at least seek to give them entry level pay.IRL work will be much easier to attain, remote jobs get flooded with lying jeets and the recruiters experience burnout dealing with them and you're likely to get overlooked even if you are qualified simply because any human behind the hiring process also has to process hundreds, if not thousands of seemingly legitimate applications all from liars

>>108402575Unit tests
>>108402594My CEO just sent a company wide email titled "What do you guys think of my new idea?">look inside>copilot link>open it>cheapest dumbest model, response filled with emojis, 4 lines prompt with almost no detailsbreh
>parent company starts enforcing their retarded new IT rules, disallowing anybody except IT admins to have local admin rights on their intune riddled windows laptops because they want full control>mfw one day with a cucked new laptop and I'm pulling my hair out cause I can't do anything>IT guy gives me temporary local admin rights to install my developer shit cause obviously he doesn't want to enter his credentials on my laptop every 10 minutes>except it wasn't so temporary>persisted after reboot instead of going away like he thought>mfw finally being able to just do work>feels like I'm on borrowed time until they revoke my ability to fucking use the machine
>>108401839i have a job so obviously it's super good and youre just having skill issues
>>108402678>disallowing anybody except IT admins to have local admin rightslol, reminds me of my first job>SE>AWS based SaaS>Only IT has access to AWSIt would take a week to do the simplest shit you can imagine, like passing data via S3.
what job can i get as a 400+lb neet shut in with no friends or social life i have 15k in credit card debt that is murdering me im 36 years old with no life or work experience

>>108402750not max i can probably stand is 10 minutes or so
the folded up helicopter was briefly sexy this week. fellas we are slowly regaining morale
>>108402743I'm in a similar boat to you as well. At the tail end of my 20s I tried going the cable company tech to IP engineer route and move from the field to the headend but after years of no progress that has ended up failing miserably. My only qualifications are 5 years working radio repair in the military and about 8ish years daily driving linux. Are there help desk positions that'll take just about anyone willing, or do I need some prior experience/training/education? I'll do whatever work, just anything that puts me behind a computer and building up experience for something better. The quick and dirty career path, I'll do the fucking jeet jobs I don't care. I've worked my ass off the last decade but the next one I want something to show for it. Just need some guidance on where that first step should be aimed at.
>>108401839I'm still in a contract at Google for over a year. One day I'll get FTE and become a googler
>>108402795lol
>>108402795But can you use A1?
>>108401839It's weird. My company has never, in the near-decade that I've been there, had as much new hiring as we do now. It's genuinely explosive, several teams have doubled or tripled in size. We've got no idea what we're going to have our many incoming interns doing. At the same time, all the candidates are incredibly overqualified. When I talk to the new hires, they're so grateful to have gotten anything and they've all got graduate degrees with specialized experience, knockout resumes. It used to be that a 3.something gpa on a four year CS degree got your foot in the door here. So I guess the broader market must be advantaging companies massively.

Why get SEC+ when you have AI
>>108403480Because ai can lie with confidence.
>>108402678>enforcing their retarded new IT rulesI had the CTO blast the entire IT support email chain regarding a service account login from my public ip, the same ip they see me log in every day from for work (I know because i maintain a dns record and i send myself an email when it changes and it doesnt change)it was a little embarassing but some of the hoops they drag us through to access things is a bit insane. Palo Alto's GlobalProtect client, Cisco's AnyConnect client, zscaler client, and there is one more the name of which escapes me. On top of all this shit, for some things we have to use an azure-hosted web session desktop UI thats basically RDP but shittier since its over HTTPS just to connect to some things. I think its silly and then i ask "why dont we have an ldap server instead of having local logins for everything" and get asked why i think thats an important feature to have

im trying to do intermittent fasting but its a pain with a tech job>wake up>make black coffee>proceed to zone out for like 6 hours because my brain doesnt work without goyslop>finally eat and can think againlike i guess i have to eat in the morning and fast in the evening but that also sucks because i find it difficult to fall asleep when hungry
>>108404253I do omad, I eat everyday same time in the evening. Give your body two weeks to get accustomed to. If you are feeling lazy or weak, drink snake juice (some mixture of salt, lemon and water). I do 48 hour fasts once every 15 days. Come to /fit/. There are lot more people like us. If you want to do two meals, have few eggs with mushroom or something on the morning. Also give up sugar and carbs while on this diet.
>>108403991Its terrifying.
I do not yet have enough money for a modest retirement This irks me
>>108404253Have you considered just exercising instead
>>108404271This sounds more performative than practical
>>108404337I do it every day though. I'm not too strict these days, but I do it almost every day.
>>108404345I'm not sure what that statement has to do with my comment
>>108404347I'm trying to say it's practical.
>>108404337Coming here and posting is performative, niggerRot away for practicality, your life is meaningless anyways
>>108404253>>108404271why do you people fall for stupid shit? lmao, just eat normally. your body needs energy and nutrients, you retards. just exercise a couple of hours a week at least and sleep well.
think i'm gonna just play video games all night and call out of work for the rest of the week since civilized society is about to collapse in a week anyways
>>108403480Goverment jobs. Besides comptia has AI certs now lol.
>>108404331i do, i go to the gym and run sprints mostly. wanted to see if intermittent fasting could give health benefits
>>108402678>disallowing anybody except IT admins to have local admin rightsI'm the IT admin at my org and I do this. Every time I am on site somewhere or remotely connected to a workstation, I go through to find any rogue users who have admin rights from previous times gone by and I remove themThen when someone raises a ticket saying they are asked to enter a password I ask for a use case of the password and they stop replying because they know what they're doing is not work relatedAnd if anyone complains to management my reasoning is that some dipshit got tricked by a phishing email to running a PowerShell script that infected a front line workstation with an info stealer that probs leaked a bunch of customer info (true story that literally happened)
Jeet now sent me an invite at 6:17 for 7:30[Jeet Jeet 7:33] Hi anon
>be me, Cybersecurity Engineer, 8yoe>get invited to interview for startup>not really that interested, but screw it, been a while since a blind reach-out desu>"we'll send you the AI interview details">immediately know I won't take this job, but also curious about how bad this will be>First question is asking about a time a security control failed and how I fixed it>not prepared to disclose internal security configurations, pause for 2 seconds to think about how to phrase>retarded fucking AI interviewer takes this silence as a sign I've finished an answer I never started>"OK, great answer!">nigger, what>immediately moves on to another retarded question that would disclose internal security processes>"Yeah, so again I can't in good conscience disclose our, uh...">"I see! What a great answer!"After this, after their AI interviewer talked over me a couple more times, and took short pauses as completed answers, I dipped. This is truly the gayest timeline.
>>108404789Your body will adapt quickly to your intermittent fasting, meaning whatever cognitive benefits you think you're getting will eventually disappear. You'll only get health benefits if you can keep doing it long term.
>>108405176Any dumb job posting should be reacted with a reply that you can take the job for 2x your current pay. No other reason to even entertain these shitty jobs unless they intend to pay you for it.
>>108403831Erm, you archthaullly did thougheverbeit, right here >>108403642
>>108405176Didn't you sign an NDA with your current/previous employer? You could bring that up instead of your conscience.
>>108405426I hate to break it to you, but this copout won't work. You know how we deal with people like this at my place of work? Or even the lesser version, "tell me about a time..." "Uhm I've never run into a situation like that ':D"When the interviewers get together they'll just say they couldn't get a signal or whatever and so they're not inclined to hire you. It's up to you to come up with the answer they want to hear, you're the monkey and if you want this job you'll find a way to dance the way your interviewer likes. Everyone else is able to come up with something, nobody is going to put up with someone who can't read between the lines in this economy
>interviewing for an "early career" role>they start asking me questions about how I set up projects, make timelines, communicate "trade offs" with "non technical" people, and ensure "security and scalability for my solutions"DUDE PLEASE I JUST WANT TO BE A FUCKING CODE MONKEY PUT ME IN FRONT OF AN IDE FUCK
>>108401584Our internal social network is just indians spamming random retarded shit to make themselves seem better. Only around 10% of the company is indian yet it is ALL THEM.

>>108403894>>108404037Every video of china is taken during the night because during the day it is even more gray and soulless than western germany.
>>108405476Just read an agile book or watch a video over it. It's the spoon fed answers they want so its easier to integrate you with the managers, project managers and program managers.
>>108404411Its not stupid shit. Eating grains, carbs and thinking it's healthy is only stupid.
>>108405499Rural korea looks cleaner and more modern that china. Besides majority of the people living on the streets in china work in factories and send money home. They call these migrant workers. Middle class in china are small business owners who are dealing with deflation, these people are about to go under if the trade situation doesn't improve.
>>108403894I don't think they would ever accept me. In most countries you will always be a second class citizen as a fireigner.
>make sure to ask questions at the end of the interview!!!! 99% sure this is some more retarded recycled boomer advice that gets passed around because every retard thinks it's somehow insightfulthe truth is that asking questions gets you no "good boy" points, every HR roastie or senior dev has a script to follow and you don't get any brownies for asking shit and pretending to care about the job. And even if you do have any serious questions, 99% of the time the interviewer doesn't know the answer because they aren't working in your department, or they aren't allowed to answer. Every question that actually matters ends up as:>sorry I can't answer that>I don't know>was already answered in the screeningthe most you can do is ask some bullshit about "the work culture" to get the interviewer to imply they hate their job.
What if everything will be fine in the end?
>>108405513I don't think it's particularly healthy but most people still live to 80. As long as you aren't obese you are already 90% there.
>>108404253>>108404271>>108404331>>108404411>>108405513I've turned health as a sedentary IT tard into a science. So listen up.Unless you're doing cardio or walking 10k steps on average every single day, you do not need carbs. You should avoid carbs in fact. That said, you SHOULD do either of these things because you will feel so much better in every single way.Even if you lift but are sedentary otherwise, avoid carbs like the plague.Don't smoke or drugs. Drinking sporadically is okay.Sleep is sacred. You need 7-8 hours on average. Any less than that and you will accumulate sleep debt which you will then likely pay off during the weekend. So you will be dead all workweek. Sleep 8 hours properly for once through your workweek and you'll feel like life isn't SO bad and miserable. Your energy levels will gaslit your brain into thinking you're happy.Eat protein and take multivitamins and isotonic drinks.
>>108405594>sporadicallydoes finishing 1L of vodka in 2 days count as sporadic?
>>108405602No you are actively killing yourself with that amount
>>108405619>he doesn't drink his carbs by downing a gallon of liquor every 2 weeks. NGMI
>>108405594Ketard detected. Enjoy dying in your 30s from a heart attack. Your fellow anti-science retards will blame the covid vaccine despite you never taking it.
>>108405594Yeah throw the no carbs out the window the moment you do actual exercises instead of vegetating by a pool in the Philippines looking for a wife.
>>108405669But I eat carbs because I do cardio and take a lot of walksOh yeah I forgot to mention if you want to eat meat, eat poultry.
>>108405619Good.
>>108405703It's not a great way to go. Also painkillers are metabolized in the liver, so destroying it is even more painful than you might think.
>>108405594>I've turned health as a sedentary IT tard into a science. So listen up.Where's the science part?
>>108405683Okay that's better.
>>108405728that's a trade secret
>>108405594Senpai, I just need some discipline and sleep at the same time everyday.
>>108405728Your science was funded by sugar industry. So drink you corn syrup and seed oils goyim.
they keep stealing the wireless hdmi transmitters but not the receivers
>>108405769You're rambling about multivitamins (which do absolutely nothing) and isotonics (which are full of sugar). Is this some kind of ameritard logic that I'm not fully grasping?The only correct thing you mentioned was getting 8 hours of sleep. As if that was some grandiose discovery.
>>108405851>retard doesn't understand that you can get your mineral salts through drink supplements without also consuming sugarOkay you're retarded I'm no longer replying to youThe ideal diet is chicken, eggs, milk, whey, water, coffee, tuna, salmon, sardines, beans, and nothing else. Yep zero green veggies die mad about it.

>>108405860Why do Americans have to be so extreme about everything? Why can’t you just be normal
>>108405919That isn't extreme. This is the solution to modern lifeOur bodies aren't made for any of this shit bro. I'm not supposed to have little boxes around me with other people making noise. I'm supposed to be sleeping soundly in a cottage while doing physically exerting activities all day to get food to survive.I don't have the time or money to prepare barely nutritious veggies or some shit, when I can cover that entire nutritional goal with a pill and a 1 euro isotonic drinkI do not have the time or energy to be active on the side within a job that requires me to sit still for 8 hours, so my body can not afford to eat high fat foods and get clogged arteries These high stress tech jobs are deadlier than anything else you've been taught is unhealthy, and you better adapt like I did

>>108406002Nice to see american goys taking one for the team, making sure God's chosen people can enjoy lower taxes and free healtcare & education <3
>>108406237Jews dont pay taxes at all, actually. And they receive the greatest welfare in the US. The Federal Reserve is literally a parasite siphoning goy labor and time.
>>108406220can only speak from my uni days but usually it means you babysit some industry people while working to implement whatever measurement software you need to cooperate with other groups which your supervisor points you to. I already did all of that in my degree as part of my thesis work which I spent a year on. Am I being too naive to expect more of the same?Pic seemed more fishy to me but its not my field only know a guy inside who explained his work and it seemed to be standard stuff.
>>108406220>This whole thing reads like they want someone experienced running an entire IT department.Average entry level position

>>108406256You don't need to trust my opinion, just ask AI to critically evaluate the requirements list and it'll tell you the same.As for the consultant position, it's not even a dev or IT position. You're basically expected to work 60 hours a week creating bs powerpoint presentations with AI.
>>108406262These days yeah which proves my point about the market being dead.
>>108405970You are right about the severity of the problem and also about how unrealistic certain proposed solutions are. I'm not even just working 8 hours, I still learn new frameworks and languages after work, or for a while I did lots of leetcode. People underestimate how hard a programming job can be.I still think your nutrition plan is suboptimal, leafy greens are likely healthy and not hard to prepare. Low carb and low calories is generally good, but Keto was too much for me.

>>108406306>leafy greens are likely healthy and not hard to prepareTheir only healthy factors are micros (solved by multivits and isotonics), and fiber. Fiber is a legit weakness in this diet though. I can get by with plenty of coffee and being active enough that my metabolism is fast, plus slathering my butthole in vaseline to make it stretchy enough for even the biggest anus ripping turds.>not hard to prepareThey're hard to prepare into something palatable that doesn't involve adding calories in the form of oil. It's always this not very tasty, soggy meal at best without having to compromise somewhere in the preparation process.They're high volume and take a lot of time to consume, relative to other foods.They spoil fast. Buying fresh ones means going to the store a lot more, which is more precious time waste, and also means a time commitment to eating that. Imagine you buy your broc day 1, end up having a shit day at the office requiring you to stay for hours, now you come home and you either spend the only time you have preparing and eating them, or you do what anyone else does and you order something. Now your fresh veggies are bumped to next day with even more pressure to eat. It's just such ass to build the rest of your routines around.Their quality is inconsistent too. I absolutely do not have the time to inspect every piece of my veggies to fish out individual rotten pieces. I've tried doing frozen veggies to deal with the issue of fresh veggies, but frozen ones always tend to have a substantial amount of inedible pieces.Man fuck greens.
>>108406638I mostly eat them for the fiber, not only because fiber is probably healthy, but also it helps me feel full, if you have no problem with that, then there's one less reason to eat them I guess.I do add a bit of olive oil, though, usually I buy them frozen, maybe I'm just lucky that my supermarket has pretty decent ones.

Anyone hates their company pushing AI? It's so stupid.
do most jobs make you do red/green/refactor or can you just write code?
>>108406707Interesting people rarely their work social media
>>108407082We all do, but we like the money more. Even here in EU, government gibs don't go very far.
>>108407160Yes, I despise it, but leadershit has always been about buzzwords, and they look at the AI adoption metrics.
>>108407162I don't even know what red green refactor is and I've been in the industry for 16 years.
I came up with a multi million dollar idea but my company is too stupid and dysfunctional to utilize it properly so I might quit and start my own company

I'll take the violence and creative chaos of America over the petty totalitarianism and herd mentality of east Asia. The Chinese are sheep
>>108407160Yes. It would be ok as a tool, but we are required to write 100% of the code with AI. Also everyone writes code now, fucking HR is pushing code.

hello sir
>got told I'm moving to a new team>have to interact with new pe*pleat least I'm not the leader, I think
Anons I find myself at a cross roads>do telecom/networking cyber security>a little bit of red team, a little bit of blue team, and a lot of networking protocolsSo I figure either>lean into red team>lean into blue team>ditch cyber and just be a normal engineerKinda got put on soft notice because of some political shit happening. That's OK I've been stagnating anyway, just figured I'd wait out the literal war and the ai war for our minds.So which of those is the best (best paid and least amount of work)?
A vendor I was working with called me a baakrichaud in my ticket.Honestly I'm laughing so fucking hard, I'm not even sure if I should fry his fucking ass for not reading my fucking ticket and having a freakout or just let it go.
Good morning sirs
>>108401526Counter-suggestion: Westerners for SE and QA, Indians for compliance, recruitment and HR.>inb4 y thoLLMs can already do all the pen-pushing work, but regulations still require a human gatekeeper to read and approve everything. So fire 10,000,000 Karens, replace them with an AI agent, then hire 100 Indians to rubberstamp the outputs.
>>108407644A what? Is that even safe to google?
Nothing beats designing and writing code yourself.
If someone doesn't take the first themselves to begin learning a new thing, then they have no interest in learning that new thing, even if they say they do.
>>108407509>best paid and least amount of workI'd say go for red team, but I have no idea of you will work less than the other options. Must be the funniest job of all of them, though.Also, what kinda retarded company fires someone with your profile (who does 3 security/tech roles at once???) for political reasons? They will surely miss you lmao
>>108401122Why hire Indians at all? Haven't you realised yet that Indians being in the equation ruins the equation? It's like having a big long string of multiplication and slapping a zero in there somewhere.
>>108407962Sir we are an asset for the needful leverage. Far less likely to job hopping and for cheaply.
Business idea: hire indians to kill other indians
>>108407082i kinda burnt out at the end of last year but in the process of doing so i realized i've managed to sorta glide into a position i dont have to do much. all my tasks are such retarded dogshit that no one knows what i do on a daily basis. pay isnt great but i can pursue a lot of hobbies now and it helps that im wfh. u should try doing that
>>108407855I tried googling it and it didn't come up with anythingDeepL says it means "baked rice" in Lombard (some hick dialect spoken in parts of rural Italy and Switzerland)
>>108407987>Pay for Indian scalps>Business savvy jeets realise they have a scalp they can sell>They start offing themselves en masse
>>108407810>Indians for recruitment and HRthis would unironically bring about the end of the world as we know it and a rollback to the dark ages
>>108408070The absolute faith the world had in "science" in 2020 should've shown you that we already live in a dark age.
>>108408049theres a much more dire possible outcome>According to the story, the British government, concerned about the number of venomous cobras in Delhi, offered a bounty for every dead cobra. Initially, this was a successful strategy; large numbers of snakes were killed for the reward. Eventually, however, people began to breed cobras for the income.
>>108407962Only incompetents and indians hire indians. Which is most of tech these days.
>>108408109>Comparing entrepreneurial British Indians in colonial times to present day street shitting Hindu jeetsThey wouldn't think of breeding jeetlets to sell scalps; they'd just go around scalping others randomly until someone else scalps them.
>>108407855motherfucker in their language or something (indian)
I got the email.>How can the SOC utilize AI in day to day operations to increase maturity and performance? I set up a meeting next week to discuss.How over is it?
Would a vr headset let me experience being an animal?Especially the facebook ones we have loads of these at work. That way, my hard work would have a point.
>>108408272Nah that's fineOver is that other guy with the "we're hiring 200 indians" announcement, or all the guys who got "you're not allowed to use an IDE"
>>108407644Holy shit imagine working with so many jeets that you actually start picking up some words in their disgusting language. I thank God everyday that this isn't me yet
>>108407893Yeah it's really dumb. Basically screw over a different department to benefit their own because of headcount and budget stuff. I'm not necessarily getting fired but definitely reallocated at some point in the future and I want to stay ahead of it because I worked hard to create my current pretty comfy position and this will not be a promotion and most anything a demotion (losing my cyber security role and back to normal engineer). Idk maybe that would be comfy. It pisses me off to be jerked around though and I also don't believe the heads up was all in good faith either, the writing is on the wall for sure.
I spent 20 minutes today tanning my balls. WFH chads rise up.
>>108408328You never watched prank call videos before where they scam scammers?
>>108405476Best advice I can give you is to find someone, literally anyone you have even the most minor friend/family connection to, and get their advice and do a practice interview. Or better yet, get them to see if they can recommend you for a job at their workplace. The game is always, always rigged for those people. And most people are willing to help a noob out in that way if they aren't just the worst type of curmudgeonly asshole.Right now the job market is in the pits, which really only impacts two kinds of people:1. People with high level positions (i.e, nearing retirement) have a harder time finding jobs at their level and pay grade.2. People with no experience can't find jobs because companies are not in a "growth" state where they will accept noobs to train them.But most companies will take a junior dev on because they are CHEAP and for no other reason, especially if you demonstrate that you can do relatively simple bug fixes with minimal help. Extreme bonus points right now if you can demonstrate that you know how to use Claude, Cursor, or Github Copilot to write a little bit of code (and not just copy-pasting shit, but talking through your understanding of the outputs).
>>108405594Hm, this is pretty similar to my routine except I just masturbate and shitpost all day in between meetings after coding for like 20 minutes.
>>108408449No, I already hear that disgusting accent enough at work
>>108408268That's benchod or madarchodI never heard of "baakrichaud" and it doesn't even sound IndianUnless >>108407644 spelled it wrong
>>108408557oh spelled it wrong, pulled up the case details now. it's bakarchodi.idk this vendor support been a fucking ass but I don't want to light a fire on his ass since I'm thinking if upper leadership get word of this they'll just find a new vendor. THEN IM OUTTA a job.
I have to admit, ever since my job has embraced daily stand ups and hour tracking there is just so much more stress. Every two weeks for these stupid sprints just feels like we have constant go lives
>>108403638Oof global protect can suck a fat dick. Hate that shit.
>>108408580I'd just leave it well enough alone to be desu. Maybe only do something if you know you would have no problem getting a new job. You can always take comfort in the fact that at least you're not a retarded seething Indian like him.
>tfw spending more and more time describing what I do >not time to actually do it

The overwhelming, overwhelming majority of people do not get any side effect other than diarrhea.

>>108409838Nothing but the Google Coursera ones I got before getting this job (whatever the equivalent of A+ is). I tried studying for Net+ but got discouraged after constantly failing practice exams.
>>108409874Net+ is comptia's hardest entry level cert so don't get too discouraged. You can put the random free Coursera and Edx courses on your resume. For A+/Net+/Sec+, Boson.com, Random PDF's and just a shitload of videos is recommend. For Cisco you would also add Cisco Packet tracer or even GNS3 if you want to get a CCNP/CCIE. You can still put random shit you learned at home and at work on your resume so be sure to update it. Even something as dumb as setting up a linux server to host minecraft is worth adding.
