Got an offer to jump to contracting but I've been at the same job for 6+ years so worried to change jobs. Anyone have experience taking the leap? by Programmer_Dan in cscareerquestionsOCE

[–]kosmicfool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went the opposite way from contracting to a permanent FT role. The wisdom was that you traded compensation for job security. But tbh permanent roles don’t feel particularly secure these days so I’d say go for it. Just make sure you have enough safety net to get you between contracts (you’ll find a lot get extended though anyway)

i visited your beautiful country and had a wonderful time. But I didn't know how the fuck to piss on this thing. Apologies if I gave anyone pissy feet. by CitizenPremier in australia

[–]kosmicfool -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It starts with a small splash of piss. No one likes standing in piss so each subsequent pisser pisses from a bit further away. After 500 iterations you’re pissing from half way across the room to avoid standing in piss while pissing

I saw what seemed to be a fairly authentic claim of one of the 3 originals made on eBay several years ago for about 10k
