Who the fuck works from 9 to 5? Dolly Parton?
[raises hand]
The devs that still work at the place I started at 20 years ago. They actually have a start time of 8 and are expected to stay until 5. Earliest meeting scheduling times are at 8:30 and latest starts at 4:30. Oh and they pay horrible. But its difficult to get fired there.
But, that’s not 9 to 5. That’s 8 to 5.
Yeah because they wont be abke to fill the position. Thats terrible. Who works under those conditions?
Its the middle of no where. To find a similar job i had to move out of state 300+ miles away.
Most of the people who work there half the household income (i was yhe only income in our house) and they all were 40+ and didnt have expectations of doing more in their lives. They all had pensions (mine got cut at a stupid low number before it ended). It was only younger people leaving who were drowning.
I worked 9-5 at my last job. It fuckin sucked.
What a way to make a living
Not you. 👅
