If the documentation says one thing but the code does another, then you have just wasted time reading the documentation. And you are always left wondering if the code is supposed to work the way it's described, or the documentation is just out of date.
I love good documentation, don't get me wrong. But I NEVER trust the docs. I always look at the code to determine what's really happening.<|eor|><|sor|>I actually think the analogy holds.

I swear. Stuff is changing so fast it feels impossible to keep up. In the past we built monoliths in a single language and now we build event driven microservice architectures in 15 different technologies on hybrid cloud environments using 8 different storage engines while using AI and machine learning on all passing events to present consumers with personal suggestions to upsell whatever the fuck it is we're selling.
I'm sorry I had to get that out.

I was getting paid at my first job the lowest amount by law and I had been with them for some time. So I'm the only one managing legacy projects, I don't believe I'm such a terrible programmer, I decide it's time for a raise. The boss looks at me with disapproving eyes and says that my performance is lacking and, as a matter of fact, they were thinking of letting me go. At the time, being my first job, I ate a slice of humble pie and took the L.
Three times this happened over the course of the years, until finally the last time it pisses me off and I decide hell or high water, I'll find another place to work.
I do an interview, and I aced the technical test, literally got nothing wrong. They're very generous with their salary, benefits, and perhaps more importantly, they're happy to have me.
When I told my old boss I was leaving, I didn't know how he might react, but he gave me the biggest horrified look when I told him. He says, "now who will handle the legacy project?" and with great satisfaction, I told him it was no longer my concern. Food for thought.<|eor|><|eols|><|endoftext|> | 166 |

working hard working a lot
I work very very hard - for 35 hours a week on average. And I get full compensation for my overtime, not with money, but with time off.<|eor|><|eols|><|endoftext|> | 127 |

Take care of yourselves lads<|eor|><|sor|>Never stay in the office until 2am. No matter how much experience or team player status it gives.
Most of the companies we work for are massive and rake in billions on billions. A $30 billion revenue a year company could axe a revenue source generating $100 million a year and itd be 0.3% of their total.<|eor|><|sor|>It can be to your benefit to *occasionally* do stupid things to show "dedication" to the company. They should be highly visible, but hard to verify after the fact, so you can give the illusion of this being a normal thing you do when it's actually a rare performance. The goal is to trick your boss, not your coworkers.<|eor|><|sor|>Not really. Like, I have no loyalty to any company and the only "career growth" I care about is "big number gets bigger".<|eor|><|sor|>Well that's you. I care about career growth through getting better at what I'm doing, be that through theory, practice or both. Career growth shouldn't be only about money as there are positions that may support a lifestyle you want, or maybe you simply find a certain type of work more rewarding.
Also you can have loyalty to a company as long as it's realistic - do a good job at what they are paying you for. If they aren't paying you for it then don't do it if that isnt what you want; however, if you want to be the hero and save the project, great, let no one shame you, but also don't let anyone take the credit. Additionally, there is loyalty to yourself, respect yourself enough to make sure you are, at the very least, *competent*.
I don't blame the people who clock in exactly at 8 and leave at 5 on the dot. But I don't want them to be my manager either. I want the manager to be the guy who, when occasionally necessary, will stay and save the project or stays and learns how the other positions work.
**Right now I'm the last frame in the comic because the idiots above me don't know the work. And I'm the only engineer**. I'm working 1 hour a day, collecting a six figure salary, as I wait on everyone else as they run the company into the ground. If these guys had a little bit of energy to step out of their lane, and figure out how the tasks parallel or in series to them work, this wouldn't be happening.
In fact, I'm here because someone sent me this comic because it reminded them of me.<|eor|><|eols|><|endoftext|> | 124 |
