I'm so burned out I don't know what to do. I can't continue like this :mokouDead:

@RustyCrab Starting to feel like this too. :blobfoxmeltsob:

@RustyCrab hey, claws up, at least it's friday. Could always be worse.
But yeah, I agree with d. You don't have to quit today, but maybe it would help your mental health to have a plan to quit in say a year?

RustyCrab,
@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@inertia yes I have a potential lead somewhere and I need to follow up on that really soon...
this is going to massively suck either way. I don't know if the business hires whites but I'll never know if I don't try.

@RustyCrab @inertia you’re number one man

@inertia one of my former white coworkers is looking for a job and he hasn't found anything anywhere after about 2 months. He's been sending out resumes like crazy.

RustyCrab,
@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@inertia he's like "ridin' with biden" blue too so he has absolutely zero idea what's happening and thinks he has privilege or whatever

@RustyCrab @inertia "man the job market must be really rough or I'm really unlucky"
:^)

RustyCrab,
@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@binkle @inertia he got laid off with a lot of nonwhite coworkers as well but I don't think they are actively looking. Not that I blame them because they need a long break after what they went though. I was honestly really distressed that I wasn't fired with them. At least then I wouldn't have survivors guilt and could get unemployment.

@RustyCrab @inertia that's rough - but it I'd say it reflects well on the quality of your work that you made the cut. Hopefully that bodes well for wherever you go :blobcatcomfy:

@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@binkle @inertia thank you. I was the only one who knew their whole engineering stack in the group and I believe that's why they kept me around.

Pawlicker,

@RustyCrab @inertia that's basically my brother and why he's basically doomed in the job market ngl

Pawlicker,

@RustyCrab @inertia I just got told by a pajeet hiring manager I couldn't understand I didn't have enough years of professional experience working on tech, without being asked what my qualifications were. For a $17-19 an hour job

time to go to the cage

@RustyCrab @Pawlicker What do you mean? I only see average americans in the pic.

Pawlicker,

@RustyCrab @inertia someone I know is so desperate he's wanting to join the army and so I'm having to try to convince him not to do it lmao

inertia,
@inertia@pone.social avatar

@Pawlicker @RustyCrab is he into a certain wine drinking pony and draws? If so I know the guy lol.

Pawlicker,

@inertia @RustyCrab he's not a brony

inertia,
@inertia@pone.social avatar

@Pawlicker @RustyCrab weird that it happened twice then. Also tried to get that certain pony enjoyer not to join the army, but ehhh not sure if it worked.

deprecated_ii,
@deprecated_ii@poa.st avatar

@RustyCrab take a sabbatical nigga

RustyCrab,
@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@deprecated_ii not an option. I either quit or I dont.

PodunkPotato,
@PodunkPotato@nicecrew.digital avatar

Physical or mental?

I don't know if you exercise much, but if you do some running or the like it can help clear your mind. Also, try to supplement your B's and D's. Hard to get enough this time of year. Especially D.

RustyCrab,
@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@PodunkPotato @deprecated_ii I exercise a lot. It's situational and I don't think there's anything I can do to make it better without dramatic changes (quitting)

PodunkPotato,
@PodunkPotato@nicecrew.digital avatar

Ah, sucks man. Hope it works out.

deprecated_ii,
@deprecated_ii@poa.st avatar

@RustyCrab I mean, my answer then is quit

you're gonna work yourself into a very early grave and what good is that

RustyCrab,
@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@deprecated_ii I get it

just, money

I have enough to keep me going for a while but a white guy applying to jobs in 2024 is not promising

deprecated_ii,
@deprecated_ii@poa.st avatar

@RustyCrab perhaps you need a goal that will make you feel more comfortable quitting before you have a stroke

like buy a little cabin innawoods in the middle of nowhere and then when you quit at least you have somewhere cheap to live

not kidding btw

RustyCrab,
@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@deprecated_ii yeah I would have to find somewhere mighty cheap that isn't near blacks

deprecated_ii,
@deprecated_ii@poa.st avatar

@RustyCrab north central PA comes to mind

Paultron,
@Paultron@poa.st avatar

@deprecated_ii @RustyCrab omaha and duluth are lily white too

RustyCrab,
@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@deprecated_ii how do business react to you saying like "I can start in 2 months" rather than immediately

deprecated_ii,
@deprecated_ii@poa.st avatar

@RustyCrab not that uncommon I'd think

the northeast doesn't move fast like out west

RustyCrab,
@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@deprecated_ii I'm going to put together a resume and linkedin this weekend I guess (control+shift+alt+win+L)

PunishedD,
@PunishedD@clubcyberia.co avatar

@RustyCrab @deprecated_ii Then apply for unemployment. BANTS.

RustyCrab,
@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@PunishedD @deprecated_ii you have to be fired to get unemployment

PunishedD,
@PunishedD@clubcyberia.co avatar

@RustyCrab @deprecated_ii Then do the 2nd part first.
