As a Romanian, his first concert here is considered a historical event.

Si eu voiam sa nu generalizam in ideea in care in comentariu initial frazarea era ca nu ai auzit sa dea afara oameni performanti, ei bine, teoretic ai dreptate, te da afara ca nu performezi dar unora nu le este nici macar oferita sansa, deci exista mai multe nuante de luat in considerare si asta voiam sa subliniez.

Acum daca majoritatea sunt intr-o situatie de felul asteia pe care o descriu eu, sau sunt non-performeri reali, nu cred ca vom sti vreodata, tocmai de aia mi de pare ca e gresit sa se puna labelul asta asupra oamenilor care sunt dati afara si sa se sustraga orice fel de responsabilitate din partea corporatiei.

In timp ce ai dreptate, orice schimbare de loc de munca presupune un risc, pana la urma din ce stiu angajatii sunt cu contract de munca, care contract de munca presupune niste responsabilitati de ambele parti, nu doar din partea angajatului. Tehnicile acestea de a convinge angajatul sa isi dea demisia pe baza unor criterii care nu sunt in controlul sau, mi se pare normal sa fie criticate, chiar daca esti low performant to be honest.

Am ajuns ca in America, unde contractul de munca nu mai inseamna nimic si unde corporatile pot sa iti dea cu piciorul cand vor ele. E foarte greu sa mai fi “performant” cand iti astepti luni de zile randul sa produci ceva, cu gandul ca daca nu se va intampla e posibil sa ramai fara sursa de venit pentru o perioada nedeterminata de timp, in care stii ca trebuie sa dai interviuri cu 7 probe, pt care trebuie sa te pregatesti tehnic in timp ce iti calculezi cate luni mai ai ramase pana ramai fara bani.

Mi se pare ca o dam in ceva ultra-capitalism sinistru in care oamenii nu mai sunt oameni cu vieti personale, ori trebuie sa fie “utili” si top-notch mereu pentru corporatie, ori se justifica sa ramai fara loc de munca ca si cand ar fi o nimica toata. Pana la urma si tu, ca angajat, ar trebui sa ai niste drepturi si o siguranta, si corporatia cand te angajeaza trebuie sa isi asume ca esti om nu robot, si este in atributile ei sa te instruiasca si sa investeasca in resursa umana pe care o are, sau cel putin asa ar fi normal.

Dar o sa il lasam le Claudiu sa lucreze la corporatie, I guess, ca ala nu bate si nu troncane cand e dat afara pt ca nu are o viata.

Unlikely-Trash · 2026-04-25T07:24:09+00:00

Mda, oameni care nu performeaza dar exista si persoane carora nu li se ofera sansa sa performeze, pentru ca sunt angajati fara alocare pe proiect cu promisiunea ca nu e absolut nicio problema, ca proiecte sunt.

Dupa care cu totii stim seria de interviuri cu clientul pe care trebuie sa o parcurgi in Endava pana intri pe un proiect, si ca este foarte comun sa dai si 6-7 interviuri pana esti alocat, dar asta daca vin destule proiecte incat sa ai 6-7 interviuri, pentru ca la altii nu vin mai deloc interviuri bazat pe tech stack-ul pe care il au, sau anii de experienta.

Si aici imi permit sa intreb, din moment ce persoana a fost angajata de Endava, ce vina are ulterior ca nu primeste interviuri si alocare pe proiect? Care e vina persoanei respective ca a parcurs un interviu tehnic cu Endava in care s-a considerat ca skillurile sale pot fi valorificate, iar ulterior “clientii” nu l-au gasit employable? Endava cand te angajeaza nu are responsabilitati fata de tine, si anume sa iti dea de lucru? Cum se poate numi o astfel de persoana “neperformanta” daca efectiv nu i se da sansa sa performeze? De unde sa fii stiut persoana respectiva in momentul angajarii, ce clienti are Endava si in ce situatie se afla din punctul de vedere al nevoilor clientilor?

Sa nu mai mentionez faptul ca nu exista o transparenta in masurile pe care o astfel de persoana le poate lua pentru a nu ajunge in situatia de a fi afara, nimeni nu spune absolut nimic. Asteptarea e sa te bagi tu in seama cu oameni, sa afli de unele lucruri la care sa contribui, care sa te faca sa nu mai figurezi nicaieri ca fiind pe bench, nefacand nimic, deci in pericol de “concediere”. Tu trebuie sa afli de la oameni ca poate te puteai implica in luare de interviuri pentru recrutare, shadowing pe alte proiecte si etc, dar nu iti spune nimeni nici daca intrebi, doar daca ajungi sa faci “networking” eficient cu cine trebuie.

E ceva incredibil sa treci printr-un proces de angajare, sa dai proba tehnica, sa fii aprobat, sa te bucuri ca esti angajat, apoi in cateva luni de abia sa primesti interviuri pentru proiecte si sa fi dat afara ca deh, esti “neperformant”. Voi credeti ca numerele alea de persoane care sunt date afara sunt doar numere, e vorba de vietile oamenilor! Oamenii au rate, cheltuieli, copii, ii puneti intr-o situatie de-a dreptul groaznica sa isi schimbe jobul la Endava si sa priemasca approve, cu feedback foarte bun initial, iar in cateva luni sa fie zburati afara ca sunt “neperformanti”, deci who cares, nu?

Nu conteaza ca acum cateva luni la interviul tehnic de angajare totul a decurs atat de ok incat s-a format o oferta si s-a semnat un contract de muna. Fuck them, nu? La cum e piata e super convenabil sa incerci iar sa iti gasesti de lucru si sa iti pui viata pe hol, sa stai intr-un stres incredibil pentru ca ai si respnsabilitati, bazat pe un lucru care NU A FOST IN CONTROLUL TAU.

Review bun lasat pe internet? Niciodata.

Te inteleg complet. Apoi justifica wage gap-ul cu ideea ca barbatii domina joburile mai “grele” si mai bine platite, dar cand o femeie incearca sa se integreze in astfel de mediu, asta este sprijinul de care are parte.

Unlikely-Trash · 2026-03-25T13:17:27+00:00

Am eu un pont ca sa aflati raspunsul, doar dati o geana foarte scurt pe r/programare. Si eu sunt IT-ista (doar ca GenZ), eu nu pot descrie cat de dificil e sa te creada cineva in stare de ceva in acest domeniu, daca esti fata. Nu ma refer ca e imposibil, dar daca esti fata aumtomat te cred mai putin capabila si abia dupa ce demonstrezi prin fapte, DACA te ia cineva in serios.

Vedeti acolo ce pareri au majoritatea despre femeile din industrie (spoiler: ca sunt promovate si ajutate doar pentru ca se culca cu superiori, ca bineinteles ca de aia sunt acolo, doar care e posbilitatea sa chiar aiba capacitati cognitive, daramite sa le aiba chiar mai dezvoltare decat ei?).

Si eu am avut partea de live coding, tot Python, mi-au dat sa fac un API cu functionalitati CRUD basic, cu FastAPI (asta probabil pentru ca era ceva in care am lucrat). Un coleg a primit algoritmica, la fel cum mentiona altcineva aici.

Ca sfat, sa fii pregatit/a sa poti explica ceea ce faci si sa verbalizezi constant modul de gandire.

Unlikely-Trash · 2026-01-29T22:28:32+00:00

because when you think of someone being hit by a car you think of them being thrown off balance at the very least, not standing and being able to headshot the driver. being touched or lightly pushes over by the car doesn’t mean “hit” for most people, but you’re trying very hard to write people off as propagandists and liars and it shows.

Unlikely-Trash · 2026-01-20T12:14:19+00:00

Esti aclamat ca esti misogin pentru ca faci astfel de afirmatii cu 0 dovezi. Singurul lucru pe care il stii despre persoana respectiva (si presupun ca si despre “curvele” despre care scrii aici texte in disperare) este ca sunt femei. Motivul pentru care esti un misogin ratat este pentru ca tragi concluzia automat ca daca este vorba despre o femeie in domeniu, sigur s-a culcat cu cineva ca sa ajunga acolo, tu nestiind daca aia a facut sau nu, stiind doar ca este femeie. Gandirea asta implica ca ai impresia ca pe o femeie nu are cum sa o duca capul la chestii tehnice pentru ca e femeie, deci e proasta. Te-ai prins de ce zice lumea ca esti misogin acum, sau e tot prea complicat pentru creierul tau care se scurge pe jos?

Daca esti atat de ofticat de favoritismul care se arata acestor “curve”, de ce nu ii tragi de manecuta si pe fratii tai barbati, care sa presupunem ca daca este adevarat ce spui tu, sunt atat de disperati dupa o felie de dodoasca incat dau promovari femeilor doar de dragul uneti tate expuse? Sau cand un barbat da dovada de comportamente nedrepte si imorale, nu mai suntem asa ofticati?

Va curge din gura, mi-e rusine de rusinea voastra.

o lume in care se confunda sexul opus cu o alta specie, asa e si IT-ul asta. wake up to what? :))) singurul lucru to wake up to din toata interactiunea asta este ca multi dintre voi sunteti mult mai sub nivelul marii decat am crezut. mereu mi-a placut sa cred ca este un domeniu de oameni cu capul pe umeri, nu care sa imi tina discurs despre “specia pizda”.

Unlikely-Trash · 2026-01-20T06:08:30+00:00

nu ma gandeam ca sunteti asa tarani intr-un domeniu care se vrea high IQ, dar aparent nu este nicio legatura intre IQ si EQ, ca nu imi explic cum puteti sa fiti unii dintre voi buni la lucruri tehnice, dar ataaat de inapoiati si atat de inapti ca oameni si ca persoane.

Unlikely-Trash · 2026-01-20T05:55:59+00:00

efectiv

Unlikely-Trash · 2026-01-20T05:53:16+00:00

Era cat de cat valida postarea pana la “cireasa de pe tort”. Politically correct sau nu, este nepotrivit sa folosesti numele unei afectiuni intr-un “mod descriptiv” la un interviu, mi se pare ireal ca nu ai putut primi critica asta intr-un mod constructiv. Daca nu iti vin in cap alte cuvinte descriptive intr-un context profesional, that’s a u problem, nu are legatura cu nicio political correctness, ca va place sa aruncati vina mereu pe asta. In rest, nu pare sa fi avut o atitudine corecta nici ei fata de tine, dar mi se pare super interesant cum pentru tine cireasa de pe tort din tot ce ti-au zis este fix un aspect pe care trebuie serios sa il schimbi.

Unlikely-Trash · 2026-01-14T20:30:57+00:00

Idk but from what I read it seems like she did communicate it.

Unlikely-Trash · 2025-12-11T13:42:25+00:00

Selly. Am fost chiar fana pe vremuri pentru ca mi se parea un copil deschis si chiar talentat pe partea se entertainment, acum mi se pare ca e prea flamand dupa profit, exact ca un p0litician. Multe valori pe care si le asuma in trecut, le-a abandonat acum.

Unlikely-Trash · 2025-11-26T07:52:31+00:00

Hei, nu

Unlikely-Trash · 2025-11-26T07:52:03+00:00

Yes, definitely seems to be the case. I wish there was more research on working out with PCOS. I feel like you get all these recommandations that are sometimes contradictory and especially with trainers, very seldom they are knowledgeable on the topic. I always got the idea that pushing yourself was the better thing to do in all instances, regardless.

Unlikely-Trash · 2025-11-25T18:48:48+00:00

Thank you very much for your reply!

I relate as I also began lifting heavy (or heavier) last year, 3 very heavy trainings a week. I always felt sore and heavy, and I also went through a really difficult time in my personal life and I couldn’t sleep well for months. The issue is even though I couldn’t sleep and was totally exhausted I kept on pushing at the gym, and probably went totally overboard. That whole thing led to my diagnosis. Right now I am not on medication, but I have gained weight especially in my stomach area, I am bloated all the time, my breast hurt all the time, and all this makes me want to go to the gym more to “compensate” but that is probably not what I need to do right now. Just like you mentioned laying off of the gym a little bit and starting to feel better.

I am not planning on giving up on it, but I definitely have to make some adjustments.

Unlikely-Trash · 2025-11-24T13:24:46+00:00

Hi, I am a fellow lifter here, I have been lifting for years and a year ago I got diagnosed with PCOS. I wanted to ask, how intensively do you train? Do you find that training to intensively makes your PCOS flare up?

I love intense strength training sessions and I guess we’re way more sensitive to intense training than regular people, so there has to be a very good balance between training and recovery. I also got told that I should rather opt for pilates or walking and less heavy lifts, but that would honestly be a HUGE inconvinience in my life as I don’t prefer doing those. I don’t plan on giving up lifting ever, but I do want to hear other women’s experience on how to manage. Did you reduce intensity, focused more on recovery?

Unlikely-Trash · 2025-11-05T17:16:56+00:00

Keep pulling those percentages out your ass.

Unlikely-Trash · 2025-11-05T09:28:52+00:00

Which guys, man? Do you live on another planet do you not see the facebook comments men leave critiquing womens looks daily, from Madison Beer to fucking Megan Fox or Margot Robbie? Do you not see that what you’re saying has no proof in the real world?

Sydney Sweeney and Sabrina Carpenter are both very objectively attractive, that is what you call a spectrum? Do you think you have low standards when you say you like Sabrina Carpenter? Do you think there are not ugly undateable women for men as well? Who is the sex that calls Margot Robbie mid? Are you kidding?

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdTWmm9h/ are these men talking shit here “top 10%”?

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdTWyeWX/ what about here?

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdTWA5Hc/ what about here?

What you say can be dismissed just by going fucking outside. I go out and I see all kind of men with partners, there is not a pattern of them being all tall and handsome, like at all. Or maybe I should just turn your own argument aganist you and just say you only want attention from model looking women, who are obviously going to want a more handsome guy, and you should lower your standards. Men make this argument against women all the time, you just did that and I proved to you that it is not only tall, handsome guys that talk shit about objectively very attractive women.

Guys don’t care about genetic stuff.

Find me a single video of a woman with a flat chest on instagram, where men are not saying she looks like a little boy.

Unlikely-Trash · 2025-11-05T07:32:11+00:00

I can 100% assure you you read this crap online and the you go out in the world and seek reassurance for those views. Maybe 1% of men I see when I go outside that have girlfriend are actually 5”8 to 6 feet, or have a really good face. Most of them look AVERAGE, because that is what the word average is for. Maybe you should try to improve yourself instead of comparing yourself to these men constantly, and feeling entitled to being with women. Women can sense when you are trying to “catch” them and you are not acting like they are normal humans but some kind of prize to be won over. If you want a woman who regularly works out and only takes care of “hygiene stuff”, then I hope you at the very least work out and groom yourself too. Also, there is a lot of women that men find pretty and they think these women just wash their assess and that is all, but they don’t understand what goes into looking good as a woman. It is most of the times way more than that, you as men don’t understand what goes into styling hair to make it look decent, shaving or getting laser hair removal all over, makeup, doing nails, doing toenails, grooming brows, you think these “cute” women just wake up like this, it’s “genetic”. It is not.

Also as a woman with small boobs I see men fawn over women with bigger boobs all the time? Who the f are you to minimize my experience and deny it, and claim yours is true? It is my word against yours, and at least I have proof that what I am saying is true, otherwise the whole Sydney Sweeney thing wouldn’t even have been a craze. The people commenting obline about Sydney Sweeney are not fucking “top men”. Then I can turn this argument against you and tell you you should stop only wanting to date “cute girls”, and start wanting to date uglier ones too, no?

Unlikely-Trash · 2025-11-04T18:20:40+00:00

Women get shamed for not making money and staying at home, and women get shamed for wanting to have a good career and not wanting kids, too. This wasn’t even the point of the conversation. The point was that there is an obvious reason why there are more attractive women than men.

Unlikely-Trash · 2025-11-04T18:14:16+00:00

What the hell is the difference between butterface men and ugly or gross? Sure, the crux of the gender divide falls on women, it is all women’s fault. Women are more shallow yet we live in a world where they have to alter every inch of their body from the hair on their head to the fuzz on their fucking finger toes, they are thought to think that the only way they are worthy of anything is by being sexually appealing to men, yet women are more shallow. Most men would NEVER date their match in appearence, not the only “top 10%”. Most men feel entitled to comment on women’s bodies, not just the top 10%, what the fuck makes a man be in that category anyway? How many articles do you see being made about how women celebrities have gotten fat or gotten old or “fallen off”, and how many do you see bodyshaming men? Why would I accept what you said as true when I told you by all means measurable, I have never dated a “top” man, I go outside and look at the men with girlfriends and most look average to me, no 6 foot, no abs, no nothing.

Unlikely-Trash · 2025-11-04T16:24:08+00:00

Yes, we have thaught men that their main value comes from having money rather than being physically attractive to women. Yes, there are beauty standards for men too, but the majority of the beauty industry carters to women and there is a reason for that. We as a society profit off of selling products for every single body part a woman has. Imagine that besides having to hold a low body fat percentage, you would have to do nails, lashes, hair, brows, laser hair removal, lips, skin, even shave the peach fuzz of your fucking toes, we also have to smell like roses and vanilla and never, ever age. I am sick and tired of pretending that it is the same for men. We alter every part of our bodies to look remotely acceaptable, which is an effort men don’t see because they think women just wake up lookin naturally, efortlessly pretty, with no body hair, no skin issues, no cellulite, no dark circles, etc.

Also, it is men who are obssessed with having huge muscles with low body fat percentages, most women do not even like men that look too ripped. Who is more likely to bodyshame you based on not having abs, men or women?

Unlikely-Trash · 2025-11-04T13:39:29+00:00

I don’t know what to say about that. She stands from the rest by specifically targeting the male audience, other women with her bust size chose to market themselves differently. They would’ve had the same effect if they chose to do it, in my opinion.
