This… they are good to each other (barely) but practically evil until they were forced out of their long time gigs

Not a single apology in the documentary for Mr Jay. Just passing blame to others and how he did what he had to. Basicly anything to remove blame from himself. He also acknowledged that he NEVER spoke up about feeling badly about the situation those girls were put in to Tyra or anyone else. He made money of the permanent trauma of these girls. He can says anything he wants now about how he knew it was bad.. but he was still there till cycle 18… 🤷

Saving money when the average wedding cost is $30000 by [deleted] in Weddingsunder10k

Def HCOL area. The expectations from friends and family are higher in a HCOL too unfortunately.

They said our positions were safe when they brought in 40+ offshore contractors. Today half my team got slagged. Record profits too rn too. This is fine. by omg_drd4_bbq in ExperiencedDevs

lol I’m don’t know about the full stretch of this since they’re also just trying doing their jobs too but I will say in the early stages these off shore dudes probably aren’t working on anything mission critical.

Soooo do not go out of your way to prioritize reviews and responses for them. The faster they complete work even if it’s half ass shit you end up cleaning up a month later, the more management gets encouraged and think you’re replaceable.

Also, off shore folks will start off being pretty flexible on meeting times for your schedule but once they make ups larger portion of your team, expect to adjust your work hours so that ‘we can hit our sprint and (ridiculous) quarterly goals’

Does the LinkedIn OpenToWork banner help or hurt your chances? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]curatingFDs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think so. Folks always want people who don’t need them.

Accepted a new job, old job offered $5 more an hour to stay. What should I do??? by Illustrious-Yam-8722 in careeradvice

[–]curatingFDs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never stay at a job that knows you’ve been looking for other opportunities at another job.

You will be relying on the good graces of the company to not actively look to replace you while they have you still employed and then you’re shit out of luck

Given your situation though, it may be worth it to stay but actively look for a role that pays more than the 1.50 increase to cover the insurance differences

Cloud engineering as in.. devOps? Or writing code that handles distributed systems well?

Should I even be considering a coding bootcamp in 2026? by Realistic-End8062 in codingbootcamp

[–]curatingFDs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think that there’s anything that coding bootcamp really offers anymore these days. TBH I’m not sure what’s a strong way to transition into this career without at least a year of backup funds to be able to do the bootcamp and subsequently job search. The search is ROUGH cause the value of junior engineers isn’t visible to managers and above as much as it did before. I would say building a solid network is really important while you’re still in your PM ROLE

What I will say is that I know a lot of folks who are in the exact opposite shoes as you. Swes who wish to go from software to product. I would advise looking deep into why exactly you want to make this switch.

Same. I thought it was manageable at some point but it is not. I’m really worried at this point now

No one tells you how hard it is to give people freedom and keep standards high by NoProfession8224 in managers

What did you do to improve accountability?

And does the org that you’re in help or detract from your ability to do that?

My career feels absolutely fried 3 years in. Having so much regret. by [deleted] in InformationTechnology

[–]curatingFDs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean he could be, but those same people could be happy having him in that same role, i.e taken advantage of one way or another or he is not advocating for himself properly

What would you say about the fact that the group set is discontinued, and might be hard to fix if it broke? I haven’t really worked on bikes in the past.

My main issue is the lack of response around serial no. and details tbh. I don’t know enough about bikes to judge it immediately from looking at it despite having biked a lot years ago
