      If you are a dev and you dont earn enough, I suspect you have quite a number of options still.

        A-fucking-men.

        Blue collar factory schmuck here: Look at me, I’m the Captian worthless one now.

        I’d figuratively kill for some options lol

          I was a bit scared to write this here, but Im not scared telling you: Devs crying because of capitalist society and walls closing in is just laughable. The fuck are they talking about. They earn 2x as much as me, maybe 3x. In the same company I work at.

            No that’s just how bad our system is that even this dev is saying if one of them stops working they’ll be homeless. And the tech job market right now is the worst it’s been since 2008, he may not have many options in reality.

            Devs are still workers like everyone else even though a lot of them think they’re above it all.

              I am a Junior sysadmin. They literally earn twice as much as me. They got atleast my pay amounts of free money to spend as I do survive on this amount. If I had that much money, I would feel very cozy.

              I dont actually believe they are that bad off.

                  I’m still not convinced. Xd Why go to the Netherlands with astronomical rent and cost of everyday conduct when you are a freelancer? Why even rent, dont you have a family house where you could safely earn the money you need?

                Most aren’t bad off, but this guy is not your usual situation. The point is that a little bad luck can fuck over anyone other than the rich
