  • I’ve left jobs before because the description and the interviews made it seem fascinating; but I mastered the stack in a couple weeks and became VERY bored.

    Somehow; the less savvy the interviewers are the more interesting the work is and its usually bad more often than good; but when it’s good It’s fantastic and with usually mediocre pay.

    Also it’s somehow always a mixed bag when the interviewers are more experienced than I because you would think that it would be great, but it’s never as good as the previous category; decent but not good. But they usually pay the most so that mostly makes up for it.











  • the people who pour their heart and soul are the people they want. i’m the kind that they don’t want: software engineers that have been doing IT/operations for so long that we understand & accept “good enough” and don’t give a rat’s ass if they don’t implement something we’ve been working on; so long as we continue to get paid.

    they search for people like you in the hopes of avoiding people like me because mind sets like mine are both more common and more difficult to manipulate.

    to be clear: they’ll still shit on you like they do to anyone else, but know that you’re the kind of people that they want and, if you can figure out how to leverage that for yourself, you’ll be doing very well.
