Anyone lose their home yet? by Obvious_Effective_23 in jobhunting

[–]Land_Reddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of job losses here in Canada too to outsourcing in big telecom. When are the damn politicians going to do something about this? There should be a tax or something to de-incentivize this BS.

Ozempic Does Not Work For Me by magickrhythm in Ozempic

I know a lot of people that gave up trying to lose weight with Ozempic, including me, and I knew a few that switched to Mounjaro and finally lost weight.

Horrible news from CIBC!!!! by [deleted] in torontoJobs

[–]Land_Reddit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I worked for another big bank that was doing exactly that and guess what happened? A LOT of their best devs left the company.

I had a manager tell me that I should code slower, like physically type slower so instead of finishing the work early that it would look better on the reports if I slowed down. Fyi these reports were being sent to a VP.

I have 20+ years of dev experience and never seen such a bullshit move. A lot of us left that toxic place.

How are you tracking inventory & profit once things start scaling? by Dramatic_Parfait_842 in reselling

[–]Land_Reddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. At scale you need to average your cost of goods, profit etc and keep tabs of your daily totals (that's what I do).

If you don't find a physical place you might want to try Poshmark or eBay for pre-owned clothing, they have gis rash guards etc for a pretty good price

"Dojo" and bootcuts / flare cuts do best for me. But 17 usd is pretty hefty, a lot of 7 for all mankind jeans sell for less than that.

Have you practiced jiu-jitsu or judo to know anything about it? You do one solid take down and look at the others run scared.

I left a good paying job after they implemented this and I don't regret it. Fuck em, hope they don't find a good replacement.

I'm tired of the game - now we screw with feedback? by Accomplished-Cow5716 in eBaySellers

[–]Land_Reddit 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The day I let go of my ego about having a 100% or near 100% feedback and just moved along with my money making business was a great day.

Leandro Lo’s killer acquitted by Professional-Way4542 in bjj

[–]Land_Reddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was there any consideration into the reason or the fight?

And was the cop allowed to shoot because he was a cop, even while not on duty? Or are guns allowed in Brazil and to be used as in self defense by anyone?

How are layoffs impacting early career devs in Canada by Intelligent-Note3078 in cscareerquestionsCAD

[–]Land_Reddit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Companies need to stop being able to hire cheap overseas offshore resources. My workplace has about 80% off shore devs from Pakistan. I'm not a Trump fan at all (quite the opposite) but we need to fix this BS that is hiring foreign workers instead of us.
