- Have zero autonomy over your own job security, beholden to the whims of Wall Street and execs who make more money in one year than you do in 50. - Forced to sit in front of a glowing screen for 8+ hours a day, destroying your own body and eyes to the point of blindness. - Do real professional work in the industry, but have to pull out your college algorithms textbook to "study for an interview" (this alone is a hilarious concept) whenever you want to switch jobs. - Belittled and abused by comedians on a regular basis (see techroastshow on Instagram) and receive zero respect from the public. Seriously we are the new slaves and the "golden handcuffs" are simply handcuffs. I should have listened to my parents and studied medicine. I really ruined my life choosing to work in tech. This is beyond inhumane. TC: 0 (laid off since Jan 2022)
There are people who work hard labor jobs everyday and ur sitting here crying about making 300k sitting at ur desk. Cry me a river
Slaves didn’t get paid. We make hundreds of thousands of dollars per year, putting many of us into the tip 5% of income earners in the US. But, sure, we’re basically slaves. 🙄
If anything we’re closer to the slave masters.
thats just a slave that gets paid with money instead of bread
