>>108823773women
>>108823773The joke is having a job
>>108823762Are the AI slop OPs necessary?
>>108823807they're mandatory
>>108823807Word from ops is that you aren't using enough tokens anon
>>108823807I'd say so. Actually, I think I will.so
>>108823807You are on the technology board
>>108823780got it now
>>108823379>government is trying to figure out if you're trustworthy or not>"Have you paid all your taxes?">"yessir!">guy in charge of your background check goes down the hall and to the left>"has this guy paid his taxes?">"no lol"great idea
>>108823807It's 2026
>>108823852I don't really see what he has to lose.>say you didn't pay taxes>definitely don't get the job>say you paid taxes>maybe they are too lazy/unable to actually check
How does anyone here deals with reviewing massive amounts of slop in pull requests? Every time I sit down to see the huge garbage output that juniors and mid seniors produce with claude code I cannot help but to get angry with these fucks. And it is so plentiful too, I really prefer how it was before AI and claude code came.
>>108823822KEK
My skip said I needed PR in by night or else but this dumb dalit had a doubt and wouldn't approve. I'm so shitted
>>108823875Ask Claude to review
>>108823773I think is more like a anecdote
>>108823823>>108823866So, no.
Has anyone gotten the AI talk? Basically encouraging you to use AI more at work?
>>108824015I give the talk
>>108824028I hate you guys
>>108824036That's OK, I'm not here to be your friend. I need you to use more AI
>>108824044fucking why
I would rather be unemployed than do web development. I don't know how you guys handle it. The culture is so abysmal.
>>108824059its amazing how little people actually know how to do web dev. easy money.
>>108824052Because my company sells AI and we need our employees to be the example. If we don't use it, how do we sell it to others?
>>108823762I think I'll have another goon. Why not
is it worth making a twitter account?a coworker asked me for my twitter or instagram and I said I don't have that and then she stared at me like i was a serial killer.
>have cozy but boring wfh job>quiet quitting for a long time, work 1 hour / day on average>think they're gonna sack me any day now>get bonus out of nowhere>get nominated for cringe "company culture" award thingI have no idea what's going on.
>>108824369sounds like they know u have given up and are trying to keep that gun out of your mouth, they over played their hand and are back pedaling >>108824362>she stared at me like i was a serial killer.>she stared>she
>>108824584>>108824369No, most people are genuinely dead weight and that hour of work you do a day is still more progress than most people make.

Let's go to the questions then!>recruiter: I'm sorry, anon. We cannot proceed with your application for this position at the moment. I'll reach out to you if a new opportunity appearsHELLO???? What the fuck just happened?
>>108824734Was it a first party recruiter (worked for the company) or third party?If third party, now that you applied to the company's site the recruiter wont' get their commission, so they have no reason to work with you.If first party... idkCould also have just been a scam attempt
>>108824750First party senior recruiter
>>108824760Probably same thing. You didn't do the needful so they don't get to count it for their bonus or something
>>108824760WeirdEither this: >>108824773Or they needed your resume tailored in a specific way and were going to give you instructions... and now that you're in the system it's too late? Idk...

>>108824842Did you then jump up and say "no, I'm not interested in YOU"
>>108824734Sounds like you got baited by a script/bot and it was a shitty script/bot.

Many people spending six figures a year are less happy because most of that spending is stress-driven. Expensive car to feel successful, restaurants because there's no time to cook, holidays to recover from work. Individually they're nice things, but it's a poison package.

>>108824734It was a script dummy. Recruiters auto send these messages to thousands, if not millions. You aren't special. You were just on the email/targeting list.Have you ever gone to Carl's Jr/Jack in the box, and a prerecorded message plays, " Would you like to try our new Whopper/Churro special?" Then the real drive thru attendant talks after. Well, you just fell for it. And if you fall for it, you are generally not hiring material.
>>108824750I assume if someone sends you a link they want you to apply through that linkUnless they really wanted to sabotage themselves
>>108825881Yeah, I'm not saying you did anything wrong. The other person is a moron. But that's how life is

Is it just me or does recruiter/HR/common people really gets the ick when you tell them your projects whether personal/professional are themed around entertainment especially video games?You can make a catalog site or review site and i think they rather see a project centered around normalfag shit like banking or finance.You can make a site around anime reviews that's insanely sleek but no no no what about something real like an LMS or ERP or a dashboard or an e commerce site
>colleague posts an all-teams message announcing "Our sales report is still in development, but it's poignant to share the link for awareness of priorities">gently message them saying it's rare to see that word, hoping they realise their mistake>they take it as a compliment, doubling down by stating their enthusiasm for vocabulary what can you do

>>108826620My first job I got through a friend.... yup... good old connections After that for job next job interviews I just kept referencing the work I did at the previous jobUnfortunately friends and relatives will always be the best path for your first job

Thirdie hereJust got a job offer to be a Scrum Master for $4k/month leading a team of 10 devs. Even though my current sysadmin gig pays $7k, I’m thinking about just saying 'fuck it,' taking the new role, and moonlighting for a whileI mean, it’s a fucking Scrum Master jobI’d basically just be a Chad hosting these crappy ceremonies. Sysadmin used to be comfy work, but it’s starting to become a pain in the ass. I’m looking for something cushy in management (kind of like jewish daycare) and this role feels like a solid stepping stone into that career.Thoughts?
>>108826848What if he's LATAM where the average salary is actually $5k USD a YEARI consider myself VERY high IQ for LATAM (112) but I'm autistic and don't have the courage to move to EU or US, I would rather just stay in LATAM
>>108826848>tradesretarded meme pushed by out of touch boomers and gen x

>>108826862You are not going to make it anywhere anon. Just tell your mom that you want to watch dragon ball on repeat forever and live in the basement.
>>108826894I wish I could be a NEET forever but my mom is like 70 and I give her a $1k usd allowance because she has no income
>youre a smart 130 iq zoomer?>well since we outsourced all the tech jobs to indians and gatekeep the engineering jobs behind a 4 year degree and 100k debt, you can go compete with the mexicans to install light fixtures for 50k a year!
>>108826904Dam what is the COL/Income level? I thought it was like China/Russia poor where 500USD is a good middle ground monthly income.
>>108826909>4 year degree means 100k debtonly if you're dumb
>>108826914>hi yes I would like to apply for the manufacturing process engineer role>>do you have a degree or 10 yoe in this specific field?>no but im smart and can learn fast!!!
>>108826909>100k college debtI only ever see that if people live in the dorms longer than 6 months for the first year. Dorm life used to be cheap in the 90's to the point of being competitive towards neighboring apartments. Now people slurped up the college meme through movies to the point that they will live in one for years. It would make more sense for somewhere like Stanford where its built around dorm life for even Masters/Phd students. Also you can just pay extra on your principal to save on interest but dumbasses never do that.
>>108826920That's not what I said, thanks for confirming you are dumb
>>108826912I'm based in Brazil.average income here's around $500 USD. I make about $5k/month, but that’s because I’ve got like 10 years of experience in my field plus a master's degree
>>108826964You are better off staying there and buying up land to fix up and flip. 5k$ USD a month is OK in america but its not making it in any regard. Especially when retards buy 50k cars, 60k college loans, 600k houses with 30k credit card debts and 3k personal loans to Disney Land.
Why shouldn't I just give up and NEET
>>108826979>Especially when retards buy 50k cars, 60k college loans, 600k houses with 30k credit card debts and 3k personal loans to Disney Land.Funny how that's pretty much the same here in Brazil even though people here make 10x less than your average AmericanBrazilians love debtmaxxxing
>>108826994I don't know any brazilian sites can you give me a car website to compare. There is no way unless these debts are 1% interest fixed.
how are you supposed to hold an in person full time job and apply to 50 jobs a week and work on projects and study and practice coding and have interviews during work hours
>>108824362You're going to do something because your coworker stared at you?
>>108827000I don't know any websites as I'm not into cars... but looking at websites you'll probably only get the raw prices which isn't very accurate to our realityIn Brazil, cars are much more expensive relative to income than in the US because normalfags here people cannot pay cash, so over 50% of cars are bought using 48-month or 60-month financing. It is standard to put 35% down and finance the remaining 65%. Due to high interest rates, the total amount paid by the end of the loan often approaches double the car's sticker price.Also EVERYTHING that is considered a luxury in Brazil is taxed at 100% of its original value>WHAT?YupSome of the most popular cars in 2025 here were these pieces of shit and look at the cost:Fiat Strada raw value: $23,000.00 + financed value: $14,950.00Volkswagen Polo raw value: $21,000.00 + financed value: $13,650.00Hyundai HB20 raw value: $18,000.00 + financed value: $11,700.00
>>108827047Thanks for the reply. Its nightmare tier there. I take it the fact that your on the atlantic side of the ocean is why shit is so much more expensive but then again shipping shit through mountains of Peru/Chilli probably doesn't help that fact either. Suez Canal is limited and going through argentina is luck based so everything has got to be stupid expensive.
i have been assigned to a modernization project (oracle to snowflake) and I literally have no idea whats going on most of the time. We have meetings with the client on which they use proprietary terms which I cant use chatgpt to understand. The team lead just gives me super simple tasks like raising access for a server or converting a simple oracle procedure to snowflake or editing some excel sheet. I work at a different branch of the company while the rest of them work at a different branch so I can't just get up and go to their desk to ask questions either. And most of the time my other teammates dont reply to me on teams to help. Feeling really stuck here as I don't really understand the work and no one is willing to helpfreshman btw
>>108827061Actually, geography and shipping routes barely touch the final price in Brazil. What really drives prices up is the tax stack (import duty + IPI, PIS/COFINS, ICMS, luxury surcharge) plus Brazil’s structurally high interest rates. The government deliberately treats cars and electronic imports as a major revenue stream, so between heavy taxation and multi-year financing that often doubles the sticker price, logistics barely matter compared to how much they extract from buyers.
>>108827069freshman intern? no one cares what you do, you aren't expected to be able to help in any way. Just have a good attitude and ask questions
>>108827108no actually, this is my second ever project and I joined back in september
>>108826839>>life is over and you're destined to be a serf making 60khaha i wish im having a job and making 60k right now...
>>108827047Nobody buys cars in cash in the US either. Most can't, but even those who could do it generally take out the worst possible loan anyway. Every time I hear something about Brazil I think more and more that the US and Brazil are the same country and nobody has figured it out yet.

Can I realistically get a C++ job with a CS degree? All the job offers I see are very close to the hardware and seem to prefer CE degrees.

>>108828061Networking bro. You are entering a harder market obviously. Comptia Certifications A/Net/Sec+ should easily land you a helpdesk job. Within 2-3 years of suffering you should've gained CCNA and some random server admin certification then you can consider applying for NOC positions. However with competition out there alot of the people we have hired have Bachelors degree's now. If you want to get into engineering then you need 5ish years of NOC experience, CCNP/Redhat/AWSorAzure certification and a Masters degree. CS degrees are still prefered but its not a make and break most times.
imagine if you could offer a service in which you covertly train someone to be your replacement before you quit

>>108828179>they are payingas an eu cuck tuition is free but I still need money to live onand to be accepted into said programI would work part time and study, I would do alot of things but getting a job is too hardstudying is also boring and hell
tgif am i right fellas
What are jobs/career for someone who cant do anything without looking at youtube / asking AI for help
>>108828234Best i can recommend is flipping free shit from Craigslist/Facebook marketplace and selling it on Ebay/AmazonIf your a Euro consider security guard since it requires less thinking.

no offense but unemployed people should post in /utwg/
>>108828267Jannies nuked it months ago.
>>108824369same, i've started working at my current company during covid, i was working hard for the first year or so, then i stopped giving a shit. i think my boss likes me cause he kept promoting me year to year until i've become the head of the dept. nowadays no one even looks at my hands, my workload consists of reminding people of their deadlines and sending out like 4-5 emails every day. i just jack off, read books, play vidya, work out and shitpost on the work group chat during work hours. i legit work for like a fucking hour per week and get pay raises while getting praised for 'excellent team performance and cohesion' bullshitno fucking clue how this all happened but i'm not complaining, i love my life
You're all baiting, lying fucks
>>108828267utwg is lazy and cant bake threadsalso doesnt help that "unemployed" has been added to the spam filter
>>108825169Same. 3 Layoffs in the last 2 years. I've usually been called in to a meeting before hand to be given a heads up. But I'm just waiting until when I get in the meeting and it's my turn
>>108828314The way I see it is that as long as we live in clown world there is no point in putting in any effort. >>108828331If only you knew how bad things really are.

Just got hired on the spot in the first round of an interview, 300 people, a non-tech company. Pretty crazy, the 2 interviewers (CTO and PM) stopped mid interview and asked each other if they agreed I was extremely smart and the right choice. Like I'm humbled, but what the fuck.
>>108826341Not at all, but my game related project is a pretty cool demonstration of technical prowess and has nothing to do with anime.
>>108828626>>vibe coding hackaton at work in two weeksburdenmaxx and run 50 billion agents in parallel doing nothing

I'm still processing the whiplash of going from unemployed to being employed.3 months ago I was getting by eating rice and beans, living in filth in my neet den and praying my 12 year old PC doesn't die on me.Now I got a company macbook pro, a new high end PC that can run anything, more money than I know to spend, and I can go and buy a cart-full of groceries every day of the week without thinking twice about my budget.I know that I should be incredibly happy right now but I honestly feel nothing. I arrive to the office and stand around with my coworkers and managers discussing the current tact and sprint and this and that and I just think to myself how the fuck am I suddenly here actually in the middle of this group of people in this billion dollar office when only a few months ago I was rotting inside my apartment in unemployment.I don't think any of this made sense I'm just feeling really strange bros.
>>108829157Glad you made it king
>>108829157>I know that I should be incredibly happy right now but I honestly feel nothingsame thing happened to me i went from making ~50k or less to 130k the reason you feel nothing is because you had just been focused on surviving for so long. generally people think money will help them, theres always a thing that will finally make them whole. but you get it and it doesn't. your checking account will his 6 figs and you'll be even more confused.
>>108829125what am i supposed to say, retard?
thinking of canceling an interview next week that I just realized I lack the preferred skills forthere's probably a more productive use of my time
>>108828964indian recruiters are constantly invading my inbox thinking I have 10 years of experience or some shit like that
>>108829107he's a micromanaging retard.
>>108829277lie
>>108829089all system design interviews are literally the same and have 0 variation for what you're expected to answer. just memorize the same 5-6 meme canned answers you're supposed to give and you'll pass all of them.
>>108829107you need(ed) to be more assertive and establish very clearly what your skill level is and what you're willing to take.people like your manager will literally see you as an inanimate object that they just throw commands at if you haven't established some sort of personality and assertiveness to them in the first few interactions.
>>108829369If I do that he will fire me
non-white recruiters were a mistakeI don't think I've ever had a positive or successful experience talking to any of them
>>108829107 here.>>108829369Is there any way to recover? Apparently he's been like this for most of his career. He ran the software department of another company in our industry. If it weren't for the fact that the job market is a fucking nightmare, I'd leave. I need to be left alone to solve problems on my own terms.>>108829386 this isn't me but I do feel this way as well
>>108829335poojeet recruiters are invading my inbox for a SCADA tool i farted around with 3 jobs ago and took off my resume 4 years ago. they really all need to be put on the conveyor belt that takes male baby chickens to the shredder and turned into something more useful than their present incarnation

I've got an interview for a senior security analyst position in appx. 1 hour.wat do
>>108829448Telnet in instead of showing up
>>108823807The general got taken over by /utwg/ shitposters, so all you're going to get is dogshit OPs with unfunny screencaps and the same tourist newfags defending the garbage OPs because they think a properly formatted OP with links and industry news is reddit.
>>108824842>You are reacting to that question. tell me whyBecause they asked you the question? What kind of chatbot shit are you going through?
>>108829391>Non-whites... were a mistakeBig surprise there.
>>108829402Not realistically. Once people solidify their impressions on you it's almost impossible to change them. This often is for the better, since if you manage to sell yourself positively to a group/person/manager, you can coast off of that forever. In your case things went the other way, so unfortunately you will be stuck in the mud for the rest of your time there.I'd say just survive there as long as possible while actively searching for jobs in other places. If you remain competent they won't fire you regardless of how much shit they give you.
>>108829452That would showcase my technical prowess.I could even email them ahead of time and tell them to keep an eye out for port 23 (telnet's port) around the time of our meeting!!
can i get a picture of how is market for for mobile devs? im trying some stuff and i liked mobile dev the most, i dont want to waste time in somethign that will give me zero returns

>>108829496The only growing sectors right now are AI and any backend infrastructure that is required for AI.Mobile doesn't fit any of that so it's pretty dead.
>>108829157i know some of this feeling. in the space of a few years i went from a mentally ill impoverished neet, living in a filthy trailer, to having a good salary and wife and kids. desu one of the few things thats nice going from poor to middle class is just not worrying about food, clothes, or car bills. i didnt even upgrade my computer until i had around 50k just sitting in checking account since im so used to just having everything be inconvenient in slow.it makes sense to not feel much about it other than the intermittent epochs of change in your life. if you werent feeling thankful that would be something to be concerned about. being a poor neet sucks dick and escaping it is truly something to be thankful about.

>>108830212im 40, guess im a zoomer now.
>helpdeskretards don't even try anymore, they just ask Claude what the problem isI thought this was just a meme
welp, I'm done for the day
>>108830365Its worse as someone up stream of them. They don't even try to learn why they are asking these questions and lead to dumber conclusions. Trial and error is apart of the job but the investigating is the actual education.
>>108830411I know because I am upstream of themI don't know where they go from here it's just brainrot city
>>108830389the horror.the horror.
>>108830417Not to mention the hate any form of education. Traditionally you get roughly 1/4th of the content from a degree but a decent amount of writing/research to backup the workplace ticket flow. Then you could do bootcamps for certifications if you really like college style education either paid by employer or your parents that sometimes lead to a job but often did if you had a cert at the end of it. Then certifications themselves while not perfect taught you the job material better than a degree with a hint of application baked into each cert. Then in our position homelabs/VM's can backup your resume experience/bullet points.Hell at this point i am fine with them skipping the degree they can learn alot of that shit at work including theory from a good boss/coworker but i need them to explore these topics formally or informally so they don't send me garbage like they have done since the start of covid.
>>108829448Overall went well I think.I flubbed when asked whether or not you can decrypt using a public key in asym encryption (said no) but think I recovered when they brought that up later and I acknowledged the error and added that you can't decrypt the same encrypted message with the public key used to encrypt initially.
anyone ever bomb a technical interview so badly you reconsider your entire career?
>>108830417>Use workstation cards at work for le artists>Helpdesk/Deskside support sends a ticket describing a weird issue that might be network related>Check everything network wise since i have to do my job before sending anything back despite helpdesk not being held to the same standard>Send ticket back, call their boss, walk over >Kid there for 6 months hasn't checked the DP port for GPU/MOBO, Turns out just remoted in and fumbled around with useless shit despite the desk owner describing in detail that its graphics related>DP port is on the MOBO end instead of the GPU>Turns out this was all due to a reference monitor getting replaced from another clueless helpdesk tech. These fuckers have A+ and likely brain dumped the material at the end of the test.
>>108829936if you dont have your shit figured out at your late teens its over
You are given 4 years to do whatever you want and you'll be given 150k annually. How would you spend most of your days? Doing gamedev?
>>108830545Whatever I want? I wouldn't be working then
>>108830545I get paid that now and can barely function. If i could do the same without work it would be fixing up the house, paying off the house and training for the next job. Super chill after the 1st year
>>108830485Yes, yet they hired me afterwords.I froze on "describe a TCP handshake" for a sr level job>>108830545Drawing furry porn
>>108829936lmao if you're a zoomer your life is already over at 25. You either made it / you're on track to make it, or you're stuck in the downwardly mobile permanent underclass.You have two career trajectories, one side of success and the other a living hellSuccessful zoomers by age 25 are:>rich off a hustle (selling drugs / onlyfans / fraud)>making six figures at some SF startup / ai company / faang / f500>doing a masters or phd or law degree in an employable fieldIf none of those apply to you, welcome to the permanent underclass. You have no job prospects. Everywhere you could have worked with dignity has been offshored or automated. Midsize companies will not hire you, neither will large corporations. You will work for $30k a year until you die or quit. You will never own a home, get laid, or have a family. Your life will take one of a few tracks (all are shit):>unemployed or disability or welfare fraud>some variant of manual labor / warehouse worker >climbing the soulless corpo ladder and being abused by gen x and boomers for $30k a year (you will never go higher than 70k, ever)>joining the military and catching drones>suicidelmao @ millennials thinking they have a chance at 33.
>>108830545I would dedicate my time to becoming a super saiyan, finally fulfilling my true destiny
>>108829089Early career doesn't matter, you won't take the effort to learn these things on the job gpt zoomer. You either know it now or you never will
>>108830545Going back to school for an EE degree so I can work in embeddedBut I don't know how much they get paid. That's also a paycut for me now, so I suppose I wouldn't take the deal.
>>108830607Alot less than IT. EE/Physics only pays well in Aerospace(overly saturated so get your PhD) or Radar/RF/Satcom(PhD = God = Real deal fucking money 200-300k+)
>>108830485Yea. I did crypto/hardware security in grad school (like fault injection, oscope snooping) and then the interviewer asked me about operational security concepts and I totally fucked it up
>>108830232Profoundly ironic post. Look you dumb shitstain, just go ahead and google it.
>>108830607I work at faang with ee grad degree, make same amount as the swes. My manager claims it's hard to hire people, not many people apply, but I don't know if that's true or not
>>1088307104chan how do i google?
>Saturday I wish something modern like video games existed, to relax over weekend.There are so many times you can replay quake 1 and red alert 2 or jazz jack rabbit.
Is it better to have a solid "overview" of different tech stacks, ip protocol, os etc rather than be a someone who is really good at object oriented patterns, knows all the syntax of a particular language today with ai? I feel like deep diving in a particular stack seems pretty wasteful compared to just getting a strong intuition.
>>108830545Write books
>>108830545Stay at my job so I can double up on incomes, save up my money and buy a home in cash. No, I don't live in California, so that's possible.
>>108830226No, they're not you dumb nigger.
I've only been working for a year now but I feel like just responding to emails/teams messages punctually and thoroughly puts you like so damn far ahead in the workplace regardless of what your actual work output looks like
>>108830901It will eventually get to the point where you can't do that, or else you'll end up putting off your actual work to help other people. You'll think>Oh I'm being so helpful to everyone! Surely this is great for me!But your manager will see you not getting your tasks done on time, or not taking on enough tasks.
