dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

No shade to any comrades here in that role. I'm just venting because 1) I hate my job and am officially "quiet quitting," and 2) I've sent out over 120 job applications today and I'm fuckign tired.

I have a good project manager and he’s receiving pressure from our VP to become a bad one. “Oh, you give your team autonomy and a sense of ownership over their work? Well, we’re gonna need you to implement more time tracking so we can charge our clients appropriately.”

They’re just assholes who can’t get over the fact that working from home may allow us to work fewer hours while remaining equally productive.

I built all the tracking stuff at my job. It's got a really shiny interface and looks super legit for when the owner walks by, but I bullshit all the numbers on the backend so no one looks bad

(He was gonna implement tracking no matter what, but when I stepped up to build the system it saved him like $1000/month and let us make up our own metrics)

you obfuscated the calculation in the code so it's hard to turn it back around on you, right?

It's all just docker shit sadly. But I got all the relationships between services set up to be basically impossible to replicate.

I'm also the only person in the whole company who knows anything about programming, so there's no chance they can replace me and I'm doing things so outside normal procedures that unless they can find someone willing to untangle my shit for 3x my salary they're stuck with me lol
