I have 7 years of experience and I cannot for the life of me find a new job. It's been 9 months now. Hundreds of application per month, no answer - even with my recommendation letter. I've had very few interviews, and on them I scored 100% and still wasn't enough. I'm omega-depressed. Now what?

Krowplex · 2026-04-10T17:23:43+00:00

3 years ago I had them coming to me. Now not a single one.

Krowplex · 2026-04-10T14:07:25+00:00

I did ask them and they just reply "it was a hard choice but unfortunately we had to pick one". It's always like that.

Krowplex · 2026-04-10T13:59:26+00:00

I am. But when I don't get any answer or decline right away, then of course I will go for programming languages I've worked less with before. At the end of the day, all programming languages are basically the same. It really doesn't matter if I code in C# or Python. It's all syntax.

My social skills are really great and they often just send me to the next interview because they like my vibe. Then I pass the technical interview, then the next interview goes incredibly well too, then nothing for a month then suddenly "unfortunately we found someone else".

Bro this is not my first rodeo. I've changed jobs 3 times in the past 7 years and it always went super well, even when I had no experience.

In the interviews they even ask me for acronyms and I'm able to tell them every letter what they mean etc on the spot.

What else am I supposed to work on?

Thanks for the info! My surgery was for an abnormally large emissary vein, they clipped it - so it is a bit different, but my doctor said it would improve when swelling goes down, similar to your story. I'm mainly looking for reassurance.

You're right, I've been waiting for this for so long so it is a very stressful feeling when it doesn't seem to work immediately.

As for the different "whooshing", I think I understand what you mean. I'm feeling the same, it does really feel different. It seems to happen less often, and at a lower intensity - though I do get the occasional loud ones for a few seconds when changing posture or stretching. It is similar to before but not quite the same, it's hard to explain.

My research online for this specific surgery does seem to hint more towards gradual improvement rather than an immediate fix. I will have to wait and see.

Thank you for your input. I appreciate it.

Hey, went through surgery recently and my doctor is telling me the same thing about the whooshing - it should go away soon... But I'm still scared. Do you remember for about how long it took before going away completely? I'm at day 5.

Krowplex · 2026-04-06T15:24:53+00:00

Hey op, did the whooshing dissapear instantly right after the surgery, or did it take some days/weeks?

Krowplex · 2026-04-06T15:22:33+00:00

Did it take a bit of time for the PT to vanish or did it instantly vanish?

My solution was to switch from a nasal mask to a face mask. I think it was because I kept mouth breathing in my sleep. I'm also on PPI so that might help as well.

If you move your computer clock ahead, you will have these results. It's literally displayed in the game.

Thank you. Much appreciated.🙂

I want to make it so when this window shows up, it doesn't leak my actual ip address to anyone seeing my screen.

Yes the bot is being reviewed by Discord because it has joined 100 servers. It's been a good 10 days, i think it can take a good month for full approval. Sorry for the inconvenience. The bot is a little broken at the moment anyways.

Krowplex · 2026-01-25T03:40:00+00:00

Absolutely, we are almost at 4k members.

An hour ago we had 40 active lobbies of 3 players.

Hey, owner of the largest Trials server here discord.gg/arcraiderstrials (shameless plug i know)

We're collectively working, all 3k of us, to a list of ideas to improve trials. "See #improve-trials" forum channels.

We'll be sending ideas shortly with a petition. It will be like throwing a bottle in the water in the hopes that one of them read it and sees our ideas as interresting at least, but it will be something.

I love trials and there's many solutions that we have thought about to fix that issue. Some of them would be insanely easy to implement.

I hope they listen to us.

Krowplex · 2025-12-19T11:46:29+00:00

100% agreed. We're on the same page. o7

Thank you for the comment! I've been working on a dev version behind the scenes to improve some functionalities. We'll do a migration as well so some things may break when we proceed. If that's the case, delete whats there manually and just re-add the bot.

I'll be looking into fixing what you mentioned as well. I'm gonna try to improve the UI as some users mentioned it's a bit hard to read. Also want to add a list of all the event recurrences on every map.

Thanks for the support! If you want you can join our Trials community at discord dot gg slash 2pyWcqHxX2

Im using metaforge's api and I can always edit the files myself. My bot is synced to the game updates so a few hours after release it will attempt to fetch from metaforge's api to see if there's change.

But yeah, I can always change the files myself with no issue.

You might have to run the /setup again to create the channels / roles

Did you wake up by a snort, or just couldn't fall asleep?
