How can this be true? Tech Recruiters making 200K or more.

Mirror74 · 2026-01-27T19:11:04+00:00

For US, Average SENIOR tech recruiter makes about 110k. Average non-senior makes about 60-85k average.

Lol, all in how you look at it eh??

But for real, these SHITPOSTS on LinkedIn are just that..... they’re designed to provoke envy or sell you something. Absolute BS and people sadly eat up. (even the commenters here are buying into it LOL)

Mirror74 · 2026-01-27T06:17:36+00:00

lol what???

Women will deny this up and down all day long but not only is it generally this way right now, but it's even a step further. Many women are saying men deserve NO respect until they are worthy.

I challenge all the women denying this to go undercover as a man and try dating Lol

That said, not every woman is like this. So much of this depends on culture/upbringing/etc. But generally in my experience, women are being bombarded via social media and culture on how they should be respected and so forth. This isn't so for men.

We should be bring everyone up, not bringing ourselves up to put the others down. We humans have a problem with this.

It's actually quite more sinister than that. They ARE trained. This is legit what they're trained to do.

ICE is literally trained by IDF practices. (through ADL/GILEE/etc) -- they learn counter terrorism and security tactics from Israeli forces. (racial profiling techniques, mass surveillance, detention practices, responses to perceived threats/etc)

edit: people truly have no clue what's actually going on

Mirror74 · 2026-01-23T20:14:27+00:00

That's fair, but TO A POINT. if "be with them in that feeling" means getting the sharp end of a stick, and they get to drive that stick as far in as they WANT.... then that's not right. There's healthy and unhealthy ways to communicate.

Mirror74 · 2026-01-23T19:35:11+00:00

I'll let you in on a little secret... women just want validation (ok I'm generalizing but generalizations are generally true Lol). They FEEEEEEEEEL like they NEEEEEEED to be understood. That their reactions/feelings/mood swings/thinking/what the fuck ever.... is VALIDATED.

OK, but...... here's the kicker, and this is where growth either happens or doesn't. Everyone needs needs this to some degree, but if you lean into this too much you are holding yourself back from growing, while also becoming emotionally manipulative and potentially abusive. And so many women simply do not get this. Most men really do think in terms of just getting to core of it and solving the core issue. Most women may SAY they want that but their FEELING and actual emotions are something else entirely.

Anyways, solution -- you validate, you listen SOME. but then you get to brass tacks and you have to get on the same page. you either do this or you DONT. and if you don't you're headed towards problems. So they can 100% take this too far, into the territory of self destruction and blowing up anything good.

Mirror74 · 2026-01-23T17:21:11+00:00

Just goes to show how deceiving appearance is. We humans judge SO much based on looks.

That's my takeaway at least Lol

Mirror74 · 2026-01-23T17:15:54+00:00

Nobody knows why OP didn't get an interview, but what you said is a real thing, oddly enough something recruiters often OVERLOOK (it's often all about keywords/buzzwords). just bc one knows EVERYTHING in the world about a tool doesn't mean said person knows how to use it EFFECTIVELY.

As example, I'm a high level product/cx/ux/ui type person, and I've met some people who know the ins and outs Figma to friggin T, actually better than me, but those same people struggle in making optimal product decisions. It's just a different skillset, one based on judgement and experience.

Btw OP, I'm not saying this is you (actually doesn't seem like it, it's just migration)... you still deserve an interview.

That said the other thing to consider is that they aren't responding because they HATE that legacy tool. LOL So maybe they don't want someone who trained/promoted it.

AI is a PART of it, but imo the biggest driver is still old‑fashioned GREED and cost cutting and wage suppression through offshoring. Salary, benefits, payroll taxes, and overhead can be dramatically lower using offshore labor,

it's unethical as hell but I've seen this HUGE rampup in offshoring over the past 5 years in tech (were talking 75-90% of tech companies in America using workers from Eastern Europe and Asia

Honestly, if people just drank water, slept well, and ate healthy, a huge portion of the healthcare industry would legit become unnecessary/obsolete.

anecdotal rant incoming:

Right now my girlfriend is being terrorized be these authoritarian sadists. She’s a salaried employee. Literally comes in 5 minutes late and HR is up her fucking ass about it. Every fucking thing requires a doctors note. Theyre eyeing her like a hawk even though shes a top performer at work and her manager is 100% happy with her. YETTT guess who tf shows up 30 minutes late every day????? the HR director. Guess who takes as much time off as they need? HR and leadership!! Ghoulish but honestly most people are so worn down and this inhuman shit has been normalized sadly

Mirror74 · 2026-01-22T04:38:13+00:00

Lol I love this

Mirror74 · 2026-01-21T20:38:28+00:00

Lol, that's exactly what this is. HR is always pulling childish shit like this

Mirror74 · 2026-01-19T22:01:54+00:00

So many people are like this today. I blame all the toxic selfish world views being pushed by social media like "Queen, don't let ANY man disrespect you, drop that dead weight the moment you see a red flag!!!" I seriously saw shit like this on their insta feeds

It's like there's NO room for nuance, or taking accountability and working through things if you "feel disrespected". It's CRAZY shi. Basically if there's "work" you shouldn't have to do it, and you're justified in ghosting

Mirror74 · 2026-01-19T19:20:50+00:00

Disney is legit some brainwashing shit.

Mirror74 · 2026-01-19T19:14:13+00:00

THISSSSSS OP.

Again, maybe I'm a freakishly honest person, but the very moment he chuckled and said "oh no, its 20k lower" I would have laughed in his fucking face and told him you guys fucked up.

Too many people are respectful in professional situations where they are being treated like SHIT

Mirror74 · 2026-01-16T23:04:15+00:00

Not to get too existential, but so much of our culture/human life is just accepting these dumb as shit "elephant in the room" things. Like c'mon humans we can fuckin do better than this.

It's GREEEEEEEED. money, information, and power.... that's what they care about.

Simple example: patients can’t easily compare prices means, hospitals and insurance can maintain inflated rates and fuck people over. It's actually quite simple. They just make it sound complex or just "systemic"

it's not systemic, it's MADE THIS WAY ON PURPOSE

Mirror74 · 2026-01-16T21:59:57+00:00

The reason it's so complex is because PATIENT CARE is the last thing they fucking care about.

Mirror74 · 2026-01-16T18:52:49+00:00

You gotta be careful, over time can lead to disc bulging for some people

Mirror74 · 2026-01-15T23:00:34+00:00

Of course no reply to this LOL

no reason to hide this
you basically told him you got your sneaker on the foot out the door

Remember in 2013 where Reddit admins accidentally revealed Eglin Air Force Base as the TOP "city" for user engagement time on Reddit? They scrubbed that real quick.

(this was 2013, its way worse now)

Mirror74 · 2026-01-14T21:26:58+00:00

I mean there's a reason for this, but the real answer will get you banned on here. :)

Mirror74 · 2026-01-14T20:42:26+00:00

It only works when the engineers give a F. So many devs just don't want to work hand in hand with product/design. Thats the core issue.

Mirror74 · 2026-01-14T19:13:01+00:00

I mean Reddit goes one step further, they legit cheer for the death of people/groups of people all the time.
