i've been on the receiving end of his cunty-ness in person as a lowley tech support minion that he was forced to work with, as well as several other well known pioneers; i can tell through this thread that dessalines is an angel by comparison and i've never met them.

this post makes me wish lemmy.world did the same thing

you should watch the video reviews on those cars; they blow american cars out of the water and it makes sense why our automakers would do everything in their power to prevent us from getting access to them.

Every single time I see this type of conversation come up it’s always about the more privileged higher paying white collar work.

this is true and i know i because i'm one of those workers while my siblings aren't and only my pay increases significantly each time while theirs remain stagnant.

on the other hand recruiters hate "job hoppers" and you'll end up with more gate keepers to jobs the more often you do it; while my siblings barely get any questions when they have to switch jobs.

my work experience is almost entirely 2 & 3 year tenures and (anecdotally) companies are making vesting a bigger part of the compensation package and getting rid of pto to counteract people's attempts at improving their livelihoods.

if you see a vesting heavy or "unlimited pto" compensation packages on offer; they don't expect to keep you for very long.

moving every 2 years or so is clearly the best strategy for career advancement.

it's a double edged sword in my experience from to talking to recruiters who seem to have an irrational hatred of "job hoppers" and they're, anecdotally, a majority.

however it is still true that you'll get higher pay as i did; but be sure to spend a LOT of time keeping your connections alive because most recruiters (still anecdotally) will red flag 2 & 3 year tenure-ships; effectively gate keeping you away from many jobs.

if it weren't for being in a relatively lucrative and in demand field (software development); i would be screwed because of those recruiters.

watch everyone but leftists, that lemmy was created for, avoid this thread

due to the bonkers high tariffs.

i hope they start building them in mexico.

and they're winning. the bonkers high tariffs on brand new $10k have guaranteed that americans and western europeans will never get affordable EV's and only the rich will have them.

living in austin for 5 years taught that even the bluest texans are ardently pro-establishment.

that doesn't mean that all of them are climate deniers; but like their red brethren, they'll fall in line and vote for a climate change denier if it means their guy gets to win.

like most of the country, they hate their choices but will fight you tooth and nail if you try to change anything for the better; don't bother with benefit of the doubt when it comes to texans.
