I love my job. I make a great salary, there’s a clear path to promotion, and a never-ending supply of cold brew in the office. And even though my job requires me to commit sociopathic acts of evil that directly contribute to making the world a measurably worse place from Monday through Friday, five days a week, from morning to night, outside work, I’m actually a really good person.
I thought that way in the early 2000s when I was laid off from Microsoft. It was a blessing in disguise for me and opened up more doors that I never knew existed.
Anyone working for meta at this point knows what’s up and deserves no sympathy for their business bullshit

It’s much different world now, but I hope everyone who got laid off recently gets a better job.
It’s not. The Internet bubble was destroying every tech job. September 11th… You might just be too young to remember what it was like.
Yeah things were way different before the patriot act, but I was really too young to know about that honestly
