Just signed a 1 year contract with a company. Total package includes base salary + 4 year vested RSU. I missed a point during negotiation and just on the package.

The issue is, because I start late in the year, the first tranch is only paid after a year. So basically if they dont extend my contract, I get precisely 0 in RSUs.

Should I talk about this with my recruiter before the start date as, maybe, an addendum?

“nothing stuck” because you found it boring. your brain filters it out as noise.
stop doing what you’re doing and start doing something else.

I have mastered the HR part of the interview but always fail the technical, the pain is real, though i improved somewhat by recording the interviews via OBS then feeding them to the AI to analyze and then using that info to fill in my knowledge gaps

>>109408913
If you’re asking that question then you’re looking through the wrong end of the telescope. When you’re genuinely interested in something, knowledge is mostly absorbed naturally. Sometimes rote memorisation is also needed but if you find it too boring to stick to then you need to rethink your life choices, literally.
>>
>>109408982
You're half right, I worked as an IT purely by following the flow i started web-design precisely because i became interested in it. The sad part is that because of AI and the fact that i started learning this since 2019(plus im 36) I really don't have it engraved in me to have the same kind of drive as some other programmers have, who can just sit at the comp all day and program/learn stuff naturally, so i just want to develop some method to force myself to learn.
What i hate most about myself is that i know on a basic level what i need to do, yet i not only don't have the will or whatever to do it.

In what way? i feel raped in a sense that i spent around 10 years working in IT hoping that i would build a career and become successful and rich, but after covid i switched to web-design and while i enjoy doing it more and i earn more then ever, My asshole is still sore from the previous rapes and i cannot stop having this constant anxiety that i need to do "SOMETHING MORE", but never actually do it, time is wasting, but i learned not to fall to despair and that a positive change is slow, things aren't great for me, but they are better and i think that is the best lesson i learned in my life fren, you, me and others like us will most likely not be great, but instead of giving up we should accept what we really are and simply start moving forward, most likely we won't go far, but at least looking back i can say that i at least tried, Let's hope that the next life is more fair than this one.

Been searching for the past month and has been awful, can't work in the country I am at given my visa explicitly states I have to have clients outside of the country.

I have a technical interview for a role that pays 2k lower I was earning, I am in full panic mode because I don't want to live as a cockroach enclosed in 4 walls in the country I am in order to not spend money.

Life could be worse but that's what I'm afraid of... all of this could get worse and my luck seems to have run out and its my own doing that got me here.

If you don't have a degree most places won't hire you at all. The places that will hire you are MSPs that will make you a helpdesk slave until you snap.

today was the last day at my miserable underemployment job and I was supposed to hear back from a recruiter regarding whether they were going to give me an offer or not for a real job and I got ghosted.
My previous job was making me borderline suicidal and the most depressed I've ever been, and now sitting at home I'm even more depressed that I left it behind. Every single day was a waking nightmare filled with torment, and now i have nothing but anxiety to look forward to for the next 3 months until I get a job or run out of cash.

Greetings friends. I work at a hotel and have no affiliation with anything tech related. My childhood friend got a mortgage recently, I would say right before the huge layoffs and AI boom. I tried giving him friendly advise that it might not be the best idea but he didn't listen. He's been looking for an UI / UX job for the last 8-9 months with no luck. He's at a senior level with a lot of projects to showcase. What type of advice should I give him? Are any of you hiring a senior UX designer? Is it completely over for him? I don't want him to go into foreclosure
