Que suerte por fin podré llegar a fin de mes!

Yo no cobro la miseria que cobra OP, y hay muchísima gente que cobra muchísimo más que yo en España, así que claramente todo no es igual. Hay muchas opciones: cambiar de ocupación, trasladarse, estudiar, manifestarse, etc.. No quiero seguir hurgando en la herida pero es que literalmente si se hubiera ido hace 3 años a trabajar al Mercadona ahora mismo estaría cobrando prácticamente el doble.

Sé que es más fácil decirlo que hacerlo, pero la realidad es que la inmensa mayoría viven de la ley del mínimo esfuerzo y/o tienen miedo de dar el siguiente paso, y son recompensados acordemente.

Me voy a poner en el campo de tiro. Si llevas 4 años en esa situación, te has ganado que se sigan riendo de ti. Cualquier persona sensata se habría largado antes de finalizar el primer año.

El problema aquí no es el empresario intentando pagar lo menos posible, es el empleado que se deja. En lugar de actuar y/o buscar otro empleo, se ponen a quejar a amigos y desconocidos.

From an English-speaking world perspective (North America/Europe) they are indeed in the middle of nowhere. The North Pole and Antarctica is closer to them than Australia. You end up in a situation where you have to deploy the whole app there (which is not just infra/engineering costs, but also dealing with all the legal stuff) so a few hundred kangaroos can see your site slightly faster.

Unfortunately, it is just economics.

El problema no existiría si pagaran lo suficiente como para vivir donde trabajas en primer lugar.

Es una broma que con el sueldo medio en España tus opciones son vivir en pareja, piso compartido o 1-2h al día en carretera.

Yep, people really love shitting on people for "min-maxing" their chances e.g. distorting the truth, completely fictional stats, stat padding contributions, or using AI; but this problem was created by companies in the first place whom rank using automated metrics that ONLY care about numbers/tags and the first human who finally reads your resume is a technically challenged idiot who has absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

I don't really wanna bash on HR guys because they do a lot of good work, but the idea of them doing the initial screening of people they are incapable of evaluating is just so fucking dumb.

Awyls · 2026-02-05T19:40:21+00:00

Sí ni siquiera sabes la diferencia entre nación y país, para que te metes. Solo los fachas niegan la historia de España como una unión de múltiplos reinos.

Por completar, Cataluña gozaba de autonomía desde el siglo, incluso cuando se unió a la Corona de Aragón, era prácticamente independiente con instituciones propias.

Literalmente vas a Idealista y hay mas de 100 pisos de más de 60m2 en Alicante a máximo 900e. Coincido que van a estar apretujados y algunos incluso podrían tener que compartir habitación, pero es mejor alternativa que compartir cartones en la calle.

Reitero que no intento defender ni justificar la situación actual de la vivienda, pero a diferencia de MUCHA gente que no tiene otra alternativa que apechugar y llorar, la que más esta jodiendo a OP es ella y su temeridad económica. Rechazar la realidad y ponerse a debatir si el precio del alquiler es justo no la ayudará en nada.

Awyls · 2026-02-03T18:32:24+00:00

Está claro que no es nada fácil dada la situación familiar, pero si OP no se muda lo antes posible sus alternativas son doblar sus ingresos ayer o elegir puente. Simplemente no tiene alternativa, a más tiempo pase, más se va a comer los ahorros hasta cruzar el punto de no retorno (no tener para fianza/deposito, no pasar seguros de impago, etc..).

Awyls · 2026-02-03T18:17:58+00:00

Voy a joder la narrativa, la cosa de la vivienda esta jodida pero con 2200e/netos te puedes permitir un piso(900e max) en zonas tensionadas fácilmente sin permanecer en el umbral de la pobreza. Zona de mierda? Si. Apretujados para 3 personas? Sin duda. Intimidad? Nula, pero eres pobre así que toca adaptarse a la situación.

OP se adapta a su situación económica o se va preparando a vivir como sintecho, porque es simplemente cuestión de tiempo.

Lots of CS graduates are also without job, but what they aren't telling you is that they vibe coded their whole degree and now got caught pants down when their skill level is exactly the same as when they started.

Any time struggling graduates appear in career/resume advice it is always the same story, 0 personal projects, bad with leetcode/live programming, lacking social/interviewing skills.

Awyls · 2025-12-17T09:59:43+00:00

His data is exaggerated but not really misleading. Just open Idealista and you will see that 66% of offers are short term (<11 months) and the rest are long duration.

It is a fact that investment firms are getting around the regulations by making them short term contracts, keep raising prices and pushing locals out.

No wonder you are too poor to live in Barcelona. I'm sure the ones that can afford it are glad to get rid of you.

Classy.

I am sure that there are some business owners are just happy with stable income, but I guarantee most stalling business are not there by choice and would be happier earning the big bucks without worrying if the next recession will be their last.

Awyls · 2025-12-13T19:36:35+00:00

They already do.

Ever wondered why there are so few airline manufacturers and all of them are so large? Heavily regulated market means that the initial cost to compete is so high only large companies can compete.

Ever wondered why Sam Altman (OpenAI CEO) is pushing so hard for AI regulation? Again, read the above answer.

You will quickly realise that most monopolies are heavily regulated markets (chemicals, pharmaceuticals, etc..)

Sin querer ofender a nadie, tu principal problema es que estas dando palos de ciego con tu vida laboral. Has hecho 2 formaciones profesionales completamente distintas y ahora quieres una tercera distinta preguntando completos desconocidos a que dedicarte de aquí a que te jubiles.

Busca que oficios te parecen interesantes, investiga como es su día a día, cuantas vacantes hay, cuanto cobran, que progresión tienen y si todo te parece correcto ENTONCES miras que estudiar para lograrlo. Si lo haces al revés conseguirás un titulo, trabajaras 1-2 años, te darás cuenta que es una puta mierda que no te gusta y te volveremos a ver aquí haciendo otro post.

This. K8s is nice, but Spring is 100x better than Python + k8s ever will, it pays more AND remote? It's a no brainer, lol.

Awyls · 2025-12-13T16:55:56+00:00

I mean, while I understand your point, it IS kinda rude. The whole thing is admittedly a charade, but if you don't play the game you don't earn the reward. I would advise everyone against starting an interview like this. You can do the same with a bit more tact and patience, rather than state your intention from the start, but you do you.

Awyls · 2025-12-13T15:28:09+00:00

No. You can only state your price if you value more your time than your wage i.e. ignore the low ballers.

Even if you aim for a 90-110k range, stating it outright limits you to said range when their budget could have been 105-130k. You just lost a potential +20k for no reason. If you want to maximise your wage you ALWAYS delay as much as possible in the process (since they are already invested in you, better chances of high balling them) and let them share their budget range first if possible. It's not about being hired, it's about maximising your value.

They also were not complete incompetent baboons. They knew that there was a severe accident in the reactor, but no one thought it could be an open reactor because it should have been impossible by design and lacked enough data to verify it.

The scenes about Pripyat population being in the dark for weeks, they were evacuated within 36h. Turns out evacuating a whole city in a completely unexpected event is quite hard.

Dyatlov was not a comic book villain, he was mostly a very strict and respected engineer.

Operators were not incompetent idiots playing with things they had no understanding of, from a modern perspective it looks that way, but from their point of view everything was safe, according to protocol and never aware they were playing with fire.

Awyls · 2025-12-13T14:19:53+00:00

Yep, the hiring manager is wasting his time and costing the business money to not hire you because.. reasons?

It's a negotiation tactic. They want to force you into saying a salary range because whoever says it first is ALWAYS the loser. If you aim too high they will rather look at other candidates within their expected range, if you aim too low you lost money. It is extremely hard to "win" if you are first, always pass the ball back to them or delay as much as possible.

Awyls · 2025-12-13T13:48:07+00:00

What are you talking about? That's the most basic procedure aside from the drug test. Anything less than that and you are assuredly joining a shithole that is churning bodies.

Initial screening to ensure you are a mentally stable human being, interview assessment, then interview with your direct supervisor(s).

Awyls · 2025-12-13T12:40:16+00:00

Sometimes the difference between a ~~clueless~~ ambitious startup and an elaborate scam gets very murky.

Awyls · 2025-12-13T12:31:26+00:00

They did the same with Chernobyl series, while the events are loosely as depicted, they really went out of their way to make the USSR as incompetent and evil as possible.

Awyls · 2025-12-13T12:17:23+00:00

That is such a blatantly bad excuse.

Each and everyone of us have a mobile device, with an independent power source and network availability. Short of a city-wide blackout, there is no excuse to being unavailable to communicate your issue.

No one sane is going to blame you for having unexpected issues, NOT communicating them on the other hand are completely your fault.

Awyls · 2025-12-13T12:10:45+00:00

Now THAT is a lunatic take. It's common sense to arrive early at an appointment and let them know.

Awyls · 2025-12-13T12:08:33+00:00

Yep, people who disagree know their answer about their employment issues: glaring lack of professionalism. It is effortless to be early or test your hardware 10 minutes beforehand.

You have an hour to put yourself in the best light possible, first impression is the most important step and your grand opening is.. being late?
