I recently deleted my LinkedIn for two reasons:

  1. Endless horseshit recruiters coming at me with bullshit jobs

  2. I come from a large firm. LinkedIn became what I would describe as occupational hubris as I would see partners from there making prideful post after post about increasing the toxicity of the place in words that made them sound all wise and stuff

I would further see many posts about young people abandoning pursuit of the profession and there being a dire shortage of entry level recruits. Responses to these posts always address lowering the educational and certification requirements, but never address the reality of working eighty hours a week, getting shat on, berated, and dehumanized the entire time for about sixty grand a year with maybe a five to ten percent chance of moving up to the real money.

Fuck all of them right in the eyeball with the white hot barbed penis of Satan himself.

Every once in a while, I'll drive by that building. When I do, I open up the sun roof and throw them a Bronx salute out the roof as I pass by. I know somebody actually saw me do it because word got back to me about it. Petty I know, but satisfying nonetheless.

I make maybe one third of what I could if I had stuck it out, but I still make plenty to live on, and that increase would require me to be somebody I refuse to become.

I'm very mean to LinkedIn recruiters. I always let them pitch the job, but I always say "please review my job experience first, I don't appreciate my time wasted".

And usually my response is something like "What the hell made you think that pitching this IT Technician job to someone with the current job title of Senior Project Manager was a good idea? When I asked you to read through my job experience, I guess I made the mistake of thinking you could read."

If they actually knew the industry, they'd try to pitch you a job as goat herder.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Oh man, that would have sounded so nice when I was still working in the industry.

I could just picture being stuck on site being berated in the middle of the night since some far away NOC thought deleting the switch configuration files was a good idea (again) and getting the offer to be a goat herder.

"Wait your telling me no human contact at all? Comes with a hut? Many KMs from the nearest technology?"

60k US a year for 8 hours a week getting berated ? Where do I ducking sign ?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago

Eighty not eight. I didn't even typo that.
