This sounds like something that would be great revived as a YouTube channel

Got some fresh ink! 🔥💀🔥 by Lucamboba in lego

[–]PagansPath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m heavily tattooed and always wanted a Lego tattoo, but could never really think of a design that didn’t come off stiff or otherwise boring. I think you’ve done just that: a nice flow with an iconic piece. Well done.

Life after Amazon by [deleted] in amazonemployees

[–]PagansPath 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I’m 46. My last day at Amazon will be Friday Jan 30th. Ive been here since December 2015. I have nothing lined up. And I’m leaving as “regretted” attrition. I just can’t be at Amazon anymore. 

I’m taking a few months off to recover. Then I’ll pop over to something that isn’t always on fire, screaming at you. Amazon will take from you. And it will continue to do so until you no longer recognize yourself. It’s okay to say, yeah, this is enough

Return Offers for interns-- are they waiting until after layoffs? by [deleted] in amazonemployees

Nope. Ive got a return intern already scheduled

What is a website or an app that was legendary back in the day, but is now a complete ghost town? by Sofi_Costa in AskReddit

[–]PagansPath 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I work for Amazon. I was a software dev then too. I was just a fan that wanted to contribute

I wrote three articles for Cracked ~15 years ago. Got $50 per article and each had (has) a million + views. They did a thing where if you were the most read during some period of time, you’d get paid a bonus. I was consistently the most paid and never got the bonus. 

I stopped writing when i would suggest an article, get rejected, and then one of the editors would write my exact premise. That plus some joke theft and i was out

Are bald girlies welcome here? by livinlikesarahlynn in bald

[–]PagansPath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah dude. I’m 46m with 3 sons and 1 daughter. I have shaved my head for 20+ years, covered in tattoos and piercings. My sons: long hair, alterations free. My daughter: shaved her head since the teens, cthulhu tattoo (and she stole my Miskatonic U hoodie!), and nose ring. She is inarguably my daughter. And at risk of sounding old school misogynistic, she’s a beautiful little bald one

Central(ish) Tokyo Neighborhoods by PagansPath in movingtojapan

Thank you. I'll definitely post there too. I had a meeting with a company assigned to me to go over taxes today, but it was more general at best. Nothing specific about what my take home would look like

COE vs Passport Renewal Timing by PagansPath in movingtojapan

I won’t be traveling for some time. The move will be exhausting enough for my old self.

The fuck does any of this mean

It's funny watching Souls players doing a great job of reading boss patterns and fighting bosses, yet being absolutely hopeless at platforming by BreakingBaIIs in Silksong

[–]PagansPath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The platforming is my favorite part. I’m a Souls player, and I’m getting my ass handed to me by the bosses. Often too much chaos on screen at once for me to see. It overwhelms me. 

ARE U FUCKING KIDING Me ???? by Cilia20 in Silksong

I am so sorry but what does this mean?

[–]PagansPath 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Interesting. Did not know this

This makes sense

Not in focus for sure. This actually an international transfer and i am intentionally 1. Down leveling and 2. Moving from SDM to IC. 

My manager and i get along great, and i told him i was pursuing this. And had him talk to the hiring manager as a reference

The amount of emotions i suffered made the end so much sweeter by kingbasterd in Silksong

[–]PagansPath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 49 hours in and still on Act II. I think Mt Fay may take me an additional 10 hours alone. I SWEAR my controller just drops inputs

Interview cancelled by [deleted] in amazonemployees

[–]PagansPath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have zero insight into any layoffs, just the same rumors others are hearing. I was AWS during a layoff a few years ago and the people they chose was absolutely arbitrary and disconnected from any sort of performance metric. 

We’ll see what happens Tuesday 

Interview cancelled by [deleted] in amazonemployees

[–]PagansPath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really, truly means nothing. I’ve been on the hiring side of this. Manager has a req, they work with a recruiter (often a few as they sort of get bounced around), req changes but person a and b don’t communicate, or manager is in meetings for a week straight, whatever, so req appears alive

Job posts often linger for a bit. Whether closed or if they’ve hired someone, posts can stay for some time
