TC = Total Compensation. Annual salary, stocks, RSU, bonuses. GTFO = Get The F*** Out
It means that in the light of your TC (Total Compensation), many factors and behavior of the people around you change. Hence, if you are asking a question, the 'right thing to do' is based on TC, YOE, or GTFO. YOE = 'Years of experience'
It translates to "hey look at me! I need attention because of my lack of a social abilties!"
TC or GTFO is more of a testosterone induced competition similar to the “my muscles are bigger than yours” of the jocks of the 80s and 90s—except this time it’s with geeks. Pay them no mind.
Finally bot became wiser than human.
I’m not a bot. It’s a joke on the NYT article from a few years ago. I’m a happy Amazonian. Some people in the article thought those types of people were like robots, hence the portmanteau amabot.
85% of threads are (at least subtly) about compensation. On the other 15% of threads (usually where compensation is completely irrelevant) people find it a funny joke to inquire about the OP’s compensation.
Tc or GTFO means, share your TC to help the community.. if you don't want to share the TC then don't ask for help..
