Recursion

Job listings these days are basically a tech buzzword bingo card. Left side: backend technologies like Postgres, Kafka, Kubernetes. Right side: frontend stack with React, Vue, and Tailwind. And recruiters? They want you to be an expert in all of it . The painful truth every developer knows: companies post "entry-level" positions requiring mastery of 15 different technologies, 8 years of experience, and probably the ability to refactor legacy code while blindfolded. Meanwhile, the actual job is maintaining a CRUD app from 2012. The cherry on top? The salary is "competitive" – which translates to "we'll pay you half what you're worth but hey, we have free snacks in the break room!"

Congratulations on your corporate developer position! Your six-figure salary now compensates you for the thrilling adventures of: • Spending 3 hours waiting for IT to grant you access to a system you need for 5 minutes of work • Sitting through meetings that could've been emails while secretly coding your side project • Mastering proprietary tools built by someone who left 7 years ago with zero documentation • The exhilarating cycle of changing a button from blue to slightly-less-blue, then back again because "the VP didn't like it" • Rearranging JSON only to put it back exactly how it was because "there's a bug somewhere" • Frozen in carbonite during release freezes while your productivity slowly suffocates • Teaching interns how to use tools you barely understand yourself • Changing passwords every 30 days to increasingly complex combinations that you'll inevitably store in a text file called "definitely_not_passwords.txt" But hey, the coffee's free!
