Now Get Out Before I Call Security

The classic "too afraid to ask" situation but with a DevOps twist. This is that developer who's been nodding along in meetings for months while everyone discusses CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, and Kubernetes clusters. Meanwhile, they're secretly googling "what does DevOps actually do" under their desk. It's like watching your coworkers enthusiastically discuss quantum physics while you're still trying to figure out how magnets work. The deployment pipeline is breaking? Just smile and say "must be a config issue" while internally screaming.

That single stick propping up the entire infrastructure stack is what we in the business call a "load-bearing hotfix." Sure, we've got Kubernetes clusters, microservices, and five layers of abstraction, but it all hinges on that one bash script written by an intern who left three years ago. The stick is labeled "vibe coding" because that's literally how it works—nobody understands it, but it has good vibes, so we don't touch it.

The job market's final boss has arrived! On the left: a job description requiring mastery of 20+ technologies including AWS, Kubernetes, Docker, JavaScript, Python, Linux, security tools like CISSP and Palo Alto, plus NIST compliance and .NET. On the right: the actual job? Excel spreadsheet jockey. It's the classic tech industry bait-and-switch where companies demand you know how to build a nuclear reactor just to change the lightbulbs. The recruiter probably thinks "full-stack" means you can stack paper forms into a full pile.

The eternal architectural debate visualized with poop emojis. One massive monolith that's smiling confidently versus a scattered army of tiny microservices. The joke here is that both approaches can either be elegant solutions or complete crap depending on your team's competence. Nothing says "enterprise architecture" quite like discussing serious technical decisions with cartoon feces.

The AUDACITY of these tech recruiters! 💀 Imagine being ONE OF THE ACTUAL CREATORS of Kubernetes and still getting rejected because you don't have enough experience... IN YOUR OWN CREATION! The hiring market has gone completely off the rails! It's like telling Leonardo da Vinci, "Sorry, we need someone with more experience painting smiles." The tragic irony of needing 12 years of experience in a 10-year-old technology is the kind of math that only HR departments can compute. Meanwhile, the poor developer is escorted out like some kind of imposter when they're literally tech royalty. The tech industry's version of "Don't you know who I am?!" gone horribly wrong!

Open source influencers flexing their New Year's contributions like they just bench-pressed the entire internet. "Just casually merged my PR into the Linux kernel at 12:01 AM while you were busy with champagne." Sure buddy, and I bet your code runs on "millions of containers" too. The only thing more inflated than these claims is their ego. Next they'll tell us they invented Git while brushing their teeth this morning. 💪
